Magna Ge - AllisonNil/Elder-Kings-2-Wiki GitHub Wiki
The Magna-Ge, or Star Orphans, were those among the et'Ada who joined the god Magnus in fleeing Mundus when the trickery of Lorkhan became apparent. Refusing to have any part in the continued existence of this prison-realm, the Magna-Ge are more silent and distant deities than even the Divines, answering no prayers and granting no miracles. Still, this exact mystique and the fact that their cold, ambivalent light still showers Mundus in powerful gifts such as magicka, have attracted those who seek meaning and mysticism beyond the drama of the Aurbis, and indeed those who seek escape from the struggles of the Arena...

• Learning: +1
• Monthly Piety: +0.1 • Arcana: +2 |
| "Magnus, the Architect, is king and father of the Magna-Ge. His expansive mind conceived all structure in the Mundus, and his sage judgement resolved to abandon it for what it was. Despite his escape, his face is turned at all times towards the creation he cannot forget, and magicka comes down to us from his abode in Aetherius." | |
| Merid-Nunda |
• Stewardship: +2
• Monthly Piety: +0.1 |
| "Merid-Nunda, the Yellow Coruscation, is first among the daughters of Magnus. Some believe that she alone takes an active role in mortal affairs as she represents the desires of the Magna-Ge to steward the living energies that arose from the designs of Magnus. Rumours that Merid-Nunda is a long dead star, or has burned into something else entirely, are whispered in confidence." | |

| "Mnemo-Li, the Blue Coruscation, once reckoned time past and future among the Magna-Ge, but on turning her back on Mundus instead became the sole goddess with knowledge and power over un-time. She perceives times that were not, and secret invocations of her are connected to unspeakable rituals to create untrackable, broken periods of time." | |

Xero-Lyg's name is invoked in studying these transkalpic geographies." |
