Other Characters
Abaddon
He is known by many names throughout Haran. Corruptor, some call him, Destroyer, Reaver, Boneweaver, Soulrender – all befit him. Abaddon is the lord of The Abyss, the shadow realm wherein such evils are birthed as to offend the flesh of which they are built. His thirst for the pain of others cannot be quenched. His love of destruction will always be unrequited. His hatred of light and hope and kindness will never wane. No creature in The Abyss has ever stood against him and lived. No world
has ever resisted his might forever.
Trieste
The daughter of Helion, last of The Old Ones, the people of Haran call her The White Lady, for so she is. When The Old Ones left Haran to the maw of Abaddon and his army, she stayed behind. Only through her guidance and teaching are the people of Haran able to survive now. She
sacrificed herself to seal shut The Black Door with her own blood. Some say she has appeared to them in dreams. The Incar say that she will return in an hour of great need and deliver them a final time.
The Saint of Blades
A god. The only god of Haran ever to manifest in physical form. It is said he was beyond the power of The Old Ones. He holds dominion over every sharpened edge of metal or stone in all creation. Each time a blade takes life, the soul of the deceased must plead his case before The Saint and be sent to a realm of bliss or oneof pain. In the last battle against Abaddon, Trieste left to seal the gate and all the other forces fled in her absence. Only The Saint of Blades and his followers, The White Blades remained. Abaddon struck him down, but could not kill him.
The Saint remains in a coma, plotting his revenge against
Haran and
The Abyss alike in The Crevasse of Revenge.

The Augur
They are neither human nor Pitborn. If The Old Ones knew where they came from, they did not say. The Augur move Haranian and Pitborn alike through what they call The Shifting Place. Teleportation might be another word for what they do, though this is only the basest of their abilities. Neither Abaddon nor
The Old Ones could resist the law they set forth. Of their purpose, they will say only, “We are The Augur;
we see far; we serve the balance.”
