—Primordial Plasm | ||
Muraganda is a prehistoric plane inhabited by dinosaurs and other primordial beings.[4][5] Its ancient civilization's magic was rooted in a deep, spiritual connection with nature.[6] Druids of Muraganda carved primitive petroglyphs whose wisdom was studied long after the civilization had disappeared.
Inhabitants
Fang druids live in the valleys, and mages study ancient petroglyphs in the mountains. Saurid warriors live in the south, and elves live in the tropics. Another notable group of inhabitants is the scarwitches.
Little is known about the bizarre entity called the Mimeoplasm, which absorbs the traits of anything it engulfs. The saurid warriors seek it out wherever it roams, believing it to be the key to a mysterious afterlife and hoping to see in it traces of their fallen loved ones. The elves believe it to be part of nature's cycle, a way to channel death back into life. The scarwitches hiss when it approaches, seeing it as the ultimate enemy of the world. Whether it's a natural process or a malevolent force, the Mimeoplasm never fails to command respect.[7]
Notable locations
- The Feeding Grounds, a wooded location where the reptilian beasts are being lured by regularly providing them with food.
