Explorer Jogo’s Log

Lore

Kel Voreth Expedition Day 001
Other explorers said Explorer Jogo doomed! DOOMED! But other explorers stupid stupid. Jogo not stupid. Jogo smart! Of course Osun are big. Crazy big! But also slow. Big and slow versus smart and small? Ha! Chua win every time! Just need to make sure Jogo has full water packs, water weapons, and primal water shield! Borrowed shield from the Zax. He said it needed testing. Jogo volunteered! Now no need to worry about fire at all!

Kel Voreth Expedition Day 002
Jogo
worried about fire. Very very worried. How this happen? Jogo’s plan foolproof! Water guns, water packs, even special DRED shielding. But water pack not made of water. Water pack catch fire! Then stupid fire elementals show up. No one said anything about fire elementals! Jogo ready for Osun, but not fire elementals! Only so much water to go around! Jogo have to find hidey place. Take stock. Figure out next plan. Safe place, dark, no fire. Only little water left!

Kel Voreth Expedition Day 003
Why Jogo
ever come here? Stupid Jogo! Should not have listened to the Zax. Go to Kel Voreth, the Zax said. Test the primal water shield, he said. It’ll be fun, he said. What a bunch of vind gas! Report for you, Zax: your shield stinks! Also, fire elementals very big! Bigger than they look in the holo-stills. How Jogo supposed to know?

Kel Voreth Expedition Day 004
This getting impossible. Jogo not a rock. Jogo need water! Jogo need food. So hungry hungry. But stupid fire elementals everywhere! What to do what
to do? Only one thing to do. Jogo gotta Chua up! Stand not-very-tall and very proud! Only thing to fear is fire itself! And when Jogo back in Illium, Jogo looking up the Zax and feeding him this stupid primal water shield! Wants a test, does he? How about a test of how stupid shield generator feels when it hit you in head, Zax? HUH?

Okay Jogo. Time is now. Destiny lies ahead. Here goes nothing!

[The scorched state of the log would appear to indicate Jogo was, in fact, unsuccessful – though to be
fair, there do not appear to be any scorched Chua remains nearby. Explorer Jogo may yet survive, though this seems unlikely.]

Lore

General Zarkuna One-Horn, Supreme Commander of the Dominion Legions, stood silently before the emperor, awaiting judgment. His trusted friend and second-in-command, Colonel Kezrek Warbringer, sat behind him in the assembled crowd.

Zarkuna One-Horn had just recounted his spectacularly embarrassing defeat at the battle of Jorigan Prime. The emperor had tasked the general with hunting down the Granok renegade Durek Stonebreaker to punish him for his crimes against the Dominion. The One-Horn had sworn that
he would do it or die trying.

Zarkuna had pursued Durek and the Destroyers to the Fringe world Jorigan Prime. Stonebreaker had retreated behind the planet, using its mass to shield his troops from the approaching Dominion forces. Zarkuna sensed that victory was near. Despite Kezrek’s vehement warnings, the general ordered a full-scale assault and led the charge in his own personal battleship.

Stonebreaker had anticipated the general’s reckless maneuver. Arriving on the far side of the planet, Zar
kuna found himself caught in a vicious ambush. More than half of his forces were destroyed in the initial attack, and the general’s ship barely escaped after being engaged and damaged by the Stonebreaker’s war frigate.

Emperor Myrcalus sat in silence, regarding Zarkuna with an unfathomable gaze. By Dominion law, Zarkuna would be stripped of his title and executed by firing squad for dishonoring the empire. Myrcalus stood, preparing to deliver the sentence.

But before he could do so, Kezrek Warbringer
rose from his seat. He turned and addressed the emperor directly, speaking in the ancient tongue of his people.

“By the old ways of Mikros, I challenge the One-Horn for command of the Legions.”

Hushed whispers filled the room. Such a challenge involved combat to the death.

“Then by the old ways it will be done,” replied Emperor Myrcalus, speaking the ancient Draken dialect as if it was his own.

Each was stripped to the waist, and given a blade forged in the fires of Mount Crucible on planet
Mikros. A space was cleared in the middle of the room. Kezrek and his commander faced one another, crouched like two feral beasts.

“Begin,” said the emperor.

The fight was terrible to behold. Their blades flashed like lightning, thrusting and counter-thrusting, and soon, both were bleeding. Teeth were bared. Claws rent flesh. They were both taken by a primal bloodlust, slaves to the savage laws that had forged Draken warriors for millennia.

During their final exchange, a thunderous strike by
Kezrek shattered Zarkuna’s blade. The One-Horn fell to his knees as the Warbringer raised his blood-soaked blade. They locked eyes for the briefest of moments.

“Thank you, my friend,” said the One-Horn. And then Kezrek cut off his head.

After the battle, General Kezrek Warbringer was decreed Supreme Commander of the Dominion Legions, and he faithfully served that role ever since. The gilded skull of the One-Horn is mounted upon his pauldrons, a grim reminder of the terrible price of defeat.

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.
