Powers beyond the Twin Civilizations of Humankind

Throughout Gondwana’s Cosmic Winter, the Peripheral Powers gathered their strength. In isolation, without the Light to threaten them, the Inevitable Vanguard reconstituted its forces, the Eternal Empire raised hosts from its Symbiont Lords, and a dozen Bandit Kingdoms swelled their ranks of daring merchants, technomantic sorcerers, and raiding hordes. At the winter’s end, they began to unleashed that gathered strength to probe and push the Twin Civilization’s vast frontier.

Eternal Empire of the Firstborn Ursu Symbiotes - ancient rulers over Gondwana in slow decline, seeking a renaissance of power.

Hegemony of Ur-Ummon - Grand civilization without the light, bastardizing many strands of old humanity.

Wilding Powers - warlords and bandit kingdoms, traders on the fringes of civilization.
