About Forsaken

The Forsaken were once Scions. During the Sundering, they chose compassion over obedience, standing against their own people to protect those marked for destruction. For that choice they were branded traitors, cast out from Scion society, and forced to build new lives in the shadows of a world that no longer welcomed them.

Though united by exile, the Forsaken are not defined solely by what they lost. Over generations they forged new traditions, new families, and new ways of understanding their place in the world. Bound together by loyalty, survival, and shared hardship, they value chosen bonds above bloodlines and judge individuals by their actions rather than their heritage. While some dream of reconciliation, others seek justice, and many simply wish to protect their people and preserve what remains of their culture.

Cultures

Though all Forsaken share the legacy of exile, they do not agree on what the future should hold. Over the centuries three major cultures have emerged, each offering a different answer to the question that has haunted their people since the Sundering: what comes next?

Classes available to all Forsaken cultures:

Seekers of Forgiveness

The Seekers of Forgiveness believe the wounds of the past can still be healed. They strive to rebuild trust between peoples, demonstrate the true nature of the Forsaken, and prove that compassion was never a mistake.

Character Themes: Hope, reconciliation, compassion, sacrifice, and redemption.

This culture may appeal to players interested in characters who seek to bridge divides, help others, and prove that mercy remains a strength rather than a weakness. Seekers of Forgiveness often become mediators, healers, wanderers, and community builders who refuse to let bitterness define them.

Seekers of Vengeance

The Seekers of Vengeance reject the idea that forgiveness is owed to those who cast them aside. To them, the Sundering revealed the hypocrisy of the Scions and the failures of the divine plan.

Character Themes: Justice, fury, loyalty, defiance, and retribution.

This culture may appeal to players interested in characters driven by conviction, purpose, and a desire to challenge those who hold power. Seekers of Vengeance are often passionate, determined, and fiercely protective of those they consider family.

Seekers of Secrecy

The Seekers of Secrecy believe survival is more important than either reconciliation or revenge. They dedicate themselves to preserving the Forsaken people through caution, secrecy, and careful preparation.

Character Themes: Survival, caution, hidden truths, independence, and self-preservation.

This culture may appeal to players interested in characters who operate quietly, protect hidden knowledge, and place the safety of their people above recognition or glory. Seekers of Secrecy often become scouts, archivists, spies, wanderers, and guardians of hidden sanctuaries.
