* History
* Worked in mining guild Steelvein Mountain Works with half-elf friend Belendyl Naefaren
* Elyan and Belendyl were skilled specialists - rather than mining, they worked on research, equipment,
smokepowder, etc.
* Overseen by Half-orc woman Tebeza of the Prosperous Depths (so-named for her focus on extracting riches from
the earth, and business acumen)
* Belendyl was secretly working on a new ammunition, more powerful than smokepowder
* Cave-in event traps workers - Tebeza decides not worth recovering workers (site not profitable)
* Belendyl uses his new formula to blast a rescue path to the workers.
* Tebeza demands formula. Belendyl, wanting to quit, refuses. He is locked up to be forced into crafting it
again.
* Elyan attempts to break him out. Tebeza kills Belendyl before they can escape. Elyan escapes. Swears revenge
on Tebeza.

### Cypher Tables
Treat all cypher types as manifest by default. Roll a d20 and use that result for which table to roll on (they're all
built as percentile tables, so you can roll d20 + d100 for both together).

### Creation
In the beginning, The One Beyond created three goddesses out of the endless nothingness --- the twin sisters Nydia and
Dysthia, goddesses of Light and Darkness, and Etra, goddess of World. The twin sisters both coveted domain over Etra,
and waged a bitter war, bringing about the light of the stars and the darkness of the void, creating the universe. As
they sparred over eons, their wounds shed their essence and, merging with that of Etra's, created the planes, including
the material plane which is considered to be Etra herself. The war between the sisters also brought forth the Etran
pantheon --- darkness and light combining chaotically to produce divine concepts of Sun, Moon, Life, Death, and so on
--- countless immortal forces that govern the universe.
In the beginning, The One Beyond spawned three goddesses out of the endless nothingness --- the twin sisters Nydia,

also brought forth the Etran pantheon --- darkness and light combining chaotically to produce divine concepts of sun,

### Civilization
There is no agreed upon definition --- or even guess --- of the age of the world, or life on Etra. Modern scholars
believe there are at least one hundred millennia of empires rising and falling that have shaped the world, but this is
as much a guess as any previous attempt to estimate the age of Etra. This belief holds that in those lost ages multiple
progenitor races native to Etra gave rise to great civilizations and further peoples before disappearing from the record
of Etra, be it by gradual decline, war, leaving for other worlds, or so on. Little is known about these races other than
the undocumented relics and ruins left behind.
The oldest known history is owned by the elves and dwarves, both ancient races in their own right. They shaped the lands
above and below long before humankind rose to prominence, and in a way shaped the ecology of Etra itself --- their vast
cities and dungeons have become part of the world's genetic memory, and it naturally spawns weird dungeons, corrupted or
blessed plazas, and the like. The living world creates not just flora and fauna, but also grand towers and abominable
strongholds.
It is claimed by some that an immense magical calamity brought about by the elves and dwarves brought Etra --- both the
world and the goddess --- to the brink of annihilation, with this corruption its/her only chance at survival, but both
races' leaders and scholars vehemently reject such slander.
