			The '''Rethri''' are a species of humanoids that look very similar to humans, except for the lack of sclera in the eyes. Rethri have a strong connection to a single dominion, which provides them an extra pool essence of that dominion type to work with before having to start paying the price like normal dominion sorcery. Rethri eye color often, but not always aligns, with the dominion they are strongly connected with. This strong connection prevents them from using the opposite mana type, but they are able to utilize other mana types. Rethri go through a secret ritual when they come of age which reinforces the connection to the dominion. Rethri who lack the connection to a dominion are called ''uvar'' and become sick and die.

			== In [[The Lost Edge]] ==

			The version of the Dominion Breaker found by [[Lien]] does not have the typical winged-crossguard sae'kes appearance, instead having jagged branching points. The gems in its handle had been removed as part of Aendaryn's effeorts to modify the sword. By imbuing a bit of [[spirit essence]] into the sword and twisting the pommel, Edge was able to transform the sword into different forms for different combat styles. These include:
			*'''Soulsever''', which turned the greatsword into a longsword.
			*'''Somniasever''', which turned the greatsword into a curved, single-edged sword.
			When using Somniasever, Lien was also able to borrow power from the [[dreams essence\|dream]] aspect of the sword and the [[Nightmare Lien\|version of himself tied to it]].

On [[Kaldwyn]], humans can enter Gateway Shrine scenarios in order to attempt to get a [[crystal mark]] or other boon.		'''Gateway Crystals''' are powerful sapient crystalline structures that serve (alongside stars) as portals for [[essence]] to interact with the world. There are individual crystals for each continent on a world. The crystals are able to construct dungeon scenarios around them and are mostly found within '''shrines'''. On [[Kaldwyn]], humans can enter Gateway Shrine scenarios in order to attempt to get a [[Crystal Marks\|crystal mark]] or other boon.

	The crystals are immensely powerful but completely stationary, so their powers have a limited range of effect. They can communicate telepathically with creatures in their shrine and grant powerful gifts like crystal marks, magical items, and information. While most of their power is centered around their dominion, some crystals can use other forms of [[essence]] to augment their scenarios. To do so, the crystal functionally borrows energy from one of their "sibling" crystals.		The crystals are immensely powerful but completely stationary, so their powers have a limited range of effect.

	Crystal ~~marks~~ are a method of accessing [[magic]]. They can be granted by the [[Gateway Crystal\|Gateway Crystals]] or [[Elemental Temples]], which can only be found in the Unclaimed Lands on the continent of [[Kaldwyn]]. Generally these marks only give a single essence type and they act as a middle-ground between [[Dominion Sorcery]] and [[Attunement\|Attunements]] as they can draw on the bodies resources like Dominion Sorcery but only after using the slowly recharging mana pool that the mark grants like an Attunement. Crystal marks tend to grow slower than Attunements and they have no functions or secondary benefits like extra mana types.		'''Crystal Marks''' are a method of accessing [[magic]].

	Crystal marks are generally considered inferior by the people of Kaldwyn but many of the stronger Attuned get a crystal mark to supplement their abilities. Like Dominion Sorcery, crystal marks have an efficiency so that the caster may have a ratio of (for example) 10:1 so for casting a 20 mana spell they would only spend 2 mana. Crystal marks have a more static efficiency than a Dominion Sorcerer.

	The nation of Sytennia often ventures to get crystal marks from the Unclaimed Lands as they lack a [[Soaring Spires\|Soaring Spire]] to obtain Attunements from.
