#22 - Pearlescent Exile

Many clans and tribes across Posterra dream about harnessing the power of Dreadwake to their own will. Those that live by the outskirts of the great ocean of madness know it better than most, and instead of trying to subjugate the lunatic forces, they tend to worship them and seek their mutagenic gifts for their empowerment and insight into the void beyond. Others are much more careful, composed in their attempts, trying to work with the tiniest threads of pure madness to weave into their weapons and their magic. One of the supposedly biggest success was the creation of the Pearlescent – The coral like, glistening warriors of the Luminous Corals which supposedly managed to weave the essence of the void into their biomass, changing them, but still in ways they could shape or control. Giving them astonishing abilities, sight beyond sight and keen instincts, turning these formidable warriors into even deadlier force. It sounds too good to be true – and of course it is, for their arrogance in meddling with the stuff of insanity already is taking toll, as their once proud clan dissolved into petty internal squabbles when their members found themselves itching for every scrap of power, believing themselves to be better than other and rightful owner of all of the void threads. Infighting, supposedly, lasts to this day amongst last two families and now plenty of lonesome warriors without families, exiled from their lands, roams the realms in seek of glory and death.
