Figures of Proturas

The people of Proturas, the hidden city of outcasts once called the Grotto or Proturus, and of the lands and Rift routes it reaches: the High Vale, the Etterwood, the south-western Rift and the ruins of Arne'Athosia. Most are known from the notes of the Proturan Campaign, set in the city's present at the end of its timeline (834 AL of the Fifth Age); others from the older Into the Rift outlines and from the dreams of the ascendant Inwe, which reach back to the Hollowing and before. What the player characters did among them is told in those chronicles.

The figures fall into a few webs: the gangs of the Warrens; the Circle of Eternity and the red dragon who works against it; the necromancer of Mist Keep and his household; and the elves, ascendants and dragons of the deeper past whose relics the present is fighting over.
