The Exalted Wilderrun: Myth and Legend

Lore

[This battered volume seems to detail the myths and legends of Wilderrun, though very little fact is established based on the tall tales between the book’s covers.

An excerpt reads…]

Wilderrun is fraught with peril, from the carnivorous plants that comb the jungle floor for unfortunate explorers, to the giant vesquettoes that can drain a man of blood in a handful of seconds. Many creatures call the sultry forest their home, and even those normally herbivorous creatures seem to crave the quivering
flesh of sentients over the bitter and oftentimes poisonous leaves of the indigenous flora.

[Another excerpt reads…]

Legends state that a number of stone statues resembling the heads of giant Granok females – only prettier – were scattered throughout Wilderrun by the members of a razortail-worshipping cult of exceptional cruelty and viciousness. All who have reported such statues have disappeared without a trace, though it is commonly assumed they were killed by cultists or enraged
monkeys…

[A final excerpt reads…]

Let us not forget the barbarous women that roam Wilderrun. Of all the jungle’s denizens, they are perhaps the most dangerous. They survive on the flesh of male sentients, refusing to dine on captured females. Female sentients who are unfortunate enough to be abducted by these cruel harridans are instead fed to their pet pumera.

An Explorer’s Guide to Pumera Bites

Lore

[This old book is marred by bloodstains, the cover displaying signs of damage from large teeth or claws. The author is listed as Dulonus Pola, a self-proclaimed “master of holistic medicine and animal-based curatives.” Though the title alludes that the subject matter is confined to pumera bites, it also covers the (purported) pharmacological uses of the pumera’s physiology.

The following chapter concerns first aid.]

The survivability rate for victims of pumera bites is pitifully low. The saliva of pumera is rife with bacteria and germs, which leads to horrible infections that are typically fatal and unresponsive to medicines of any kind. Given the pumera’s habit of cleaning its body with its tongue, this is hardly surprising. If bitten, victims should seek out medical attention immediately. Even if such help is found, victims should expect to expire, anyway. At this point, victims should endeavor
to complete their last will and testament, and make suitable arrangements for their inevitable passing.”

[Another section speaks of pumera whiskers:]

“Of all the parts of the pumera, the whiskers are the most valuable. When carefully snipped from the muzzle of a still-living pumera, such whiskers can be ground into a fine powder and mixed with equal parts snoglug slime and girrok bile.
When consumed, this concoction will cure nearly any ailment, with the only exception being the septic infection resulting from a pumera bite.
