Across Agorath’s history — most frequently during the Tenebrae Aetas — individuals have appeared without origin, lineage, or divine summoning record. These beings are called:
The Othercalled
The Beyond-Touched
or, in older texts, Wanderers Without Graves
They arrive alone or in small numbers, often in ruins, forests, or abandoned holy sites. Their arrival is marked by localized distortions: extinguished flames, reversed winds, or brief silence in birdsong.
They do not share a single culture.
They do not share a single fate.
Some become heroes.
Some become tyrants.
Most die unnamed.
Clerics note that resurrection magic behaves inconsistently on them.
Diviners report interference when attempting to trace their past.
Elementals react to them with curiosity rather than hostility.
Three theories persist:
• The World Is Calling for Help — Agorath summons aid where its own bloodlines fail.
• The Seals Are Fracturing Reality — The Towers distort not only space, but destiny.
• They Do Not Belong to Fate — These wanderers exist outside the laws binding gods and demons alike.
No theory explains all cases.
“They are not saviors.
They are not curses.They are answers —
To questions the world was never meant to ask.”
