Races & Peoples
This section catalogs dominant sentient races and distinct peoples, including biological traits, cultural patterns, and known variations. Entries may reflect both internal self-identification and external classification, which do not always align.
Famous Orders & Organizations
An index of formal and informal bodies operating beyond individual authority, including academies, orders, guilds, and covert groups. Inclusion indicates verified activity, not legitimacy or moral standing.
Nations & Political Entities
Records of political entities, sovereign states, empires, and influential powers, both current and historical. Coverage includes governance, territorial reach, and notable influence, rather than exhaustive internal detail.
Religions & Belief Systems
An overview of faiths, doctrines, spiritual traditions, and philosophical systems, as practiced and recorded. Entries reflect belief structures and observed rituals, not confirmation of divine truth.
Magic, Science, & the Unnatural
A structured classification of arcane practices, applied sciences, and anomalous phenomena. Distinctions are functional, not absolute; overlap and contradiction are common.
Materials & Oddcraft
A registry of substances and objects exhibiting properties inconsistent with conventional manufacture or natural formation. Origins are noted where possible; many remain disputed.
Botany & Beasts
A catalog of notable flora and fauna, including mundane, rare, and extraordinary specimens. Entries prioritize ecological impact, known behaviors, and recorded encounters over completeness.
Historical Figures
A registry of substances and objects exhibiting properties inconsistent with conventional manufacture or natural formation. Origins are noted where possible; many remain disputed.
