Overview
Unlike other unstable entities spawned by magic, the Demeors are the only known race of the “Magic-Born” capable of full self-reproduction and communal order. It is said they create complex societies within the radiance of Mazurite veins, utilizing the untamed energy flowing through their crystalline forms as both tool and weapon. To a human, they are a silent brotherhood, bound by the magic that beats within their chests like a second heart.
Eyewitness Account
My predecessor wastes his wit in vain. In the deep mines of Knyvit, where the sun’s light has not reached for a thousand years, I beheld them. They are no fable. They are cold giants, pulsing with a blue radiance. When they pass by, the air begins to hum, and the steel of your dagger resonates so fiercely that your teeth ache from the vibration. They are more real than this entire chronicle.
Physiology & Psychology
Their shell merely mimics the human frame—head, torso, limbs—but it is naught but a hollow imitation of our fragility. They possess neither mouths nor noses; their faces are smooth, monolithic masks that vary from one being to another, yet remain part of the skull itself. There is no hair, no breath, and no gender. Though certain silhouettes may appear masculine or feminine to the human eye, the Demeors themselves know no such distinctions.
Their bodies are often adorned with crystalline growths, some protruding nearly half a meter like jagged armor. They are cold to the touch yet vibrate with an internal, unseen heat.
Culture & Society
Communication among the Demeors is an ephemeral art. They speak through magical vibrations—a resonance they later learned to transmute into sounds intelligible to other races. However, this sonic bridge is fragile.
History tells of a master engineer from the Vaelverian Era who forged an artifact to interpret these vibrations. It was this very device that later became the foundation for the “Magic Ore Detector,” of which fewer than twenty exist in the entire world. Herein lies a strange irony: the tool we use to hunt for ore was born from a desire to understand those who are fashioned from it.
Origin
They are the pinnacle of the Mazurite ecosystem. While most “Magic-Born” are mere errors of form, the Demeors are the stable result of millennia of encapsulation. They did not simply emerge; they were “calculated” by the ore’s influence until they achieved a state of independence. These are the only magic-born beings that gaze upon the world through eyes behind masks and lay claim to it, forever tethered to the blue pulse of their native craters.
They vibrrrrate...
they sssing the song of the mountain. But the Vaelverrrrians did not want to listen; they only wanted to measssure the prrrice.
