Though they may be known in other realms as well, the Lords Telluric effectively count the Telluric Realm as "home."

The spells sorcerers use are all invocations of magical power that draw upon extradimensional entities. In some cases, these entities are known to the earthly realm: gods, spirits, and other archetypes. In many instances, however, they are entities wholly unknown to mortal historians and theologians, their names and invocations revealed only to those with the magic to plumb the depths of the multiverse and discover them.

  • Aion: An entity who embodies cyclical time, Aion was known to Hellenic culture as a god, the father of the seasons, and surrounded by the ever-spinning zodiac. Sorcerers know he is an entity of both time and fate magics alike, and those who invoke him control such powers.
