Thaloryn Wanderer

Alias: None
Origin: Mythical (Thaloryn, Geban continent)

The Thaloryn Wanderer is a mythical entity said to haunt the ancient lands of Thaloryn—one of five pre-unification nations on the Geban continent and the first to formally support Vaer’karesh. Described as a shadowy, nomadic figure without face or form, the Wanderer is invoked in folklore to deter misbehavior, caution outsiders, and instill reverence for the ancient dead. No verified sightings exist; its “presence” lives in oral tradition and regional cautionary tales.

Uses

• Ecological Role: None; purely fictional.
• Cultural Significance: Serves as a cautionary tale in Thaloryn-descended regions, used to warn children, deter trespassers, and reflect the cost of early allegiance to Vaer’karesh.
• Guidance: Treat all reports as folklore; preserve stories for cultural education and oral history.

Notes

Originating before the Era of Early Dominion (~6,000 YBM), the Thaloryn Wanderer is one of Geba’s oldest persistent myths. Though never proven to exist, its narrative shapes cultural memory and serves as a symbol of fear, disobedience, and forgotten pacts.
