The Architects of Iyelus
Calling the Earth Temple in Cher Plek their home, the Architects of Iyelus are a group of magi accomplished specifically in the art of earth magic, claiming themselves to be the stewards of the world. Currently allied with the Korin, the Architects find their calling in the preservation of the planet at large, hewing their earth magics into the world to rebuild, repair, and restructure as they feel fit. They have developed a close relationship with village shamans throughout all of Cher Plek as well as the Manu’mitters of Korinus in their attempts to purge Stamarian influence on their home-front.
While some members of the Architects are born into the group, many are adolescents and young adults from throughout the continent who felt the magical spark and were drawn to the Earth Temple to find more answers; there are even a very small number of Stamarian and Valtheran magi who found themselves called to the Architects. Every Architect possess their own unique twist and mindset to magic, but, as a whole, the group’s ability to move the earth is unmatched by any in the world.
Legend has it that long ago the Architects of Iyelus were called upon for the greatest of cities, to use their magic to create impossibly strengthened stone in perfect layouts, creating wonders unmarked by tools of man. In this lies the Architects’ pride and true passion, wishing to reshape the world at Iyelus’ call. They are masters of reshaping a battlefield, creating passages that never before existed, and creating the greatest obstacles for their enemies. While they value their works of art above all else, the Architects are sympathetic to the Korin cause as both defenders and kinsmen, largely, and they have agreed to fight for the Korin’s cause of freedom.
