Various Associations of Renown and Import throughout The Verses

Hey, read one of the books and have no idea who someone is?

Well now, that’s what this page is for!

Mind you – this page will not be going into nations and governments specifically, but many of these associations will be, as in the nature of many societies, deeply intertwined with the political goings-on of their time and place.

This page is still largely under construction – expect it to grow to a severe size over time.

Do enjoy:

Omniverse Expeditionary Librarium (O.E.L.):

After “The Severance” separating Rondi from the physical plane, Ywn knew that he had to gain rapid supremacy to pull ahead of such an epic oncoming struggle against the Traitor-Knights. He utilized his two most trained attributes: his knowledge of things, and his knowledge of people.

Starting off as a small directorate of well-educated and highly-impassioned men and women of science, The Librarium has over millennia grown to be the foremost military-scientific power across the Holyverse, and the only one considered by most to be capable of reliably wielding magitech for the good of society as a whole… at least, in comparison to the other guys, overlords and subspacers, both of which have been disliked a good deal more by the populace at large throughout history.

That said, they’re outrageously biased against people outside of their organization, as almost all members are born into it, and their social policies have not changed nearly as quickly as their technological capabilities.

Life starting out in the Librarium was immensely stressful, with a broken but determined Ywn pushing all members to their greatest efficiency with only sleep as their respite. His view was (and is to this day) maximalist to a point of horror: farmers would always be planning and working with woodsmen to develop more and more arable land, engineers would work at constant sleep deficits to find new applications to solve old problems for their Knowledge Center, and construction to house the incoming swathes of children he demanded of his populace were always in process. There was good reason for this continual focus on birth and creation – in many situations through their history they’ve needed as many hands as they could muster to defend against oncoming threats.

If you’re acquainted with their various historical struggles, you may know that they have not only been severely persecuted several times throughout the ages, but their population has been all but wiped out a number of occasions.

Jokingly coined as “cleaning off the shelves” by overlord-culture sympathizers, certain events have trimmed down on the Librarium’s total population by as much as four-fifths in a matter of years, or for the event attributed to a certain High Overlord Chaos, a matter of minutes.

Through it all, Ywn has kept a steady, but firm hand – immortalized both in body and through his achievements as a sort of psuedo god among his followers, he points the way to the everlasting advent horizon of technology, so that they may one day see Rondi’s face again…

Haha, neeeeeerds!

Royal Knights of the Old Kingdom of Reinen, The (R.K.O.K.R.):

The Severance alienated Rondi’s Knights from one another, but none so much as Rayda. Dubbed the “Head of the Traitors” by Rondi herself, Rayda evaded her two loyal, remorseless knights across the highlands of their world, but with Caliburn in his grasp, he foiled them with just as much speed and brutality. He escaped into another realm, and found in his new dimension the very things he hated more than anything: dragons. This new land was much like his own, tormented under the weight of scaled oppressors. It was clear to him that there was much work to be done in both securing the land from his oldest foes, and also raising a company of warriors capable of defeating both Ywn and Ohdhche.
