Morvaeth is a shadowed land, where ghouls walk among the living and embrace the mysteries of life, death, and the arcane. With an affinity for necromancy and communion with spirits, the people of Morvaeth dwell within misty forests and ancient crypts, practicing rituals that connect them to the spectral world. Morvaeth's architecture is gothic and foreboding, with towering spires and dark stone fortresses shrouded in mist.
The Necropolis is an expansive burial ground where the dead of Morvaeth are honored and remembered. Mausoleums and crypts rise from the mist, and the air is thick with ancient magic that binds spirits to the land, allowing them to protect Morvaeth from intruders.
The Shaded Grove is a mystical forest where the line between life and death is blurred. Ghostly figures drift among ancient trees, and the flora itself seems to pulse with necromantic energy. The ghouls use the grove for spiritual gatherings, seeking guidance from spirits that linger there.

Keeper of the Necropolis
Thaddeus Nightveil, an elder ghoul and master of rites, oversees the Necropolis of Morvaeth. Known for his stoic demeanor and vast knowledge of necromancy, he is entrusted with safeguarding the spirits of Morvaeth's ancestors and honoring the pact that binds them to protect their homeland.
The Whispering Oracle
Esme Blackthorn is a mysterious oracle who resides in the Shaded Grove. Known for her ability to hear the whispers of spirits, she provides insight into the past and glimpses of the future. Those who seek her counsel must be prepared to face unsettling truths.
