An excerpt from the rare Tome of Daemonic Studies - Volume III, the pride of the Mareldjan library at over 2,000 years old, by the 19th century wizard and scholar Aelryc. --- And it is without a doubt that despite her young age, Morimaere is among the strongest of all the daemonic beings. Though it has been theorized for many centuries, the recent mass gatings of daemons into our world by Alestar proves that there are other planes of reality than the one we observe. Morimaere is said to possess the ability to travel between these planes of reality at will, gathering untold arcane secrets in her journies. It is my theory that she did not participate in Alestar's war, as she thought herself too great to be commanded by a mere mortal, or even a God in Thurvun. Or, perhaps, she was simply busy acquiring more knowledge.

Her motives are entirely unknown, even among others of her kind. She may be preparing for a great conquest. Or she may be entirely harmless, pursuing an unquenchable thirst for magic. The only thing that can be certain is her immense power. The ability to travel through realities is an ability currently only known to exist in the Ring of Planes, the cursed artifact crafted by the betrayer God Thurvun. To consider another being of Thurvun's knowledge and unknown intentions is, at best, horrifying.

He is only ever referred to as "The Sleeper" as he has apparently never revealed his true name. Rumors place his strength at the pinnacle of all daemoinc beings, maybe all sentient beings, but it is currently shattered across numerous planes of reality. He is said to be always seeking away to unite his existence into one place and time, and thus far has be unsuccessful. This seems possible given some of the outlandish powers of various Daemons, though it is by no means substantiated.

...

Called Sangrhe, I personally believe this to be a self-given name. He is, by all accounts, entirely insane. He fancies himself a "redeemer" seeking to free others from tyranny. In practice, this usually means a blood-bath. His most common method of freeing others from what he deems unjust servitude - which has included priests devoting themselves to a God - is to free their souls from their bodies, by freeing their blood from their veins.

Rumors of unrest among the barbarian hordes in the north is spreading rapidly among the lands of Ishar. In their usual closed nature, the barbarians refuse to discuss anything at length with the other peoples of the world, but what they have said is shocking if true. They speak of daemon sightings, of stumbling across the remains of cataclysmic battles that are soon buried in the driving snow, and of various unnatural oddities such as animated trees.

Early expeditions to uncover the source of these whispers have yet to see a scout return home.
