===Defiers and Grymkin===
Nightmarish creatures from fairytales and their masters. You see, Menoth, for all his power and glory, is a huge asshole. After creating people he simply dropped them in Caen to figure things on their own and buggered off to chase his <s>boyfriend</s> enemy Wurm. Humans had to manage on their own, and in this their souls started showing true potential, shining brightly enough for Menoth to notice. Being a selfish prick, he wanted both hoard new toys and be the only top dog, so he invented basics of civilisation (fire, farming, buildings, writing) and gave them to humans, demanding worship in return and collecting the souls of faithful upon their deaths. But all his laws basically stated "Menoth is great, suck his dick and STFU", and he didn't pay attention to such meaningless things as virtue and decency, rewarding only blind obedience. Naturally, some took offence to that, and defied his will (hence the name), with five of them discovering aforementioned potential of their souls (basically, becoming beta-versions of Morrow and Thamar). Before they could do something really awesome and kick his ass, Menoth stuffed them all in the sack and shoved into the <s>deepest asshole</s> prison in Urcaen, to be endlessly tormented by their own nightmares. They chilled there for several millenia, learning to control and channel their nightmares and transforming an occasional soul that wanders in their domain withouth much else to do. Then old witch and supposedly goddess Zevanna Agha became aware of Infernals (see below), cut a deal with Defiers and opened their prison, so that they could commence a Wicked Harvest upon traders with Infernals and everyone else (but she still holds the keys, just in case they start looking funny at her).
