Anum
Originally known as Mephistopheles. A demon who represents ultimate Law and control. Despite her fiendish nature, she is actually sympathetic to mortals but doesn't understand them. She sees their free spirits and explorative nature as a danger to themselves and believes that they would be happier if they were controlled. She also is aware of the danger that other races from the stars pose to the relatively undeveloped world she lives in. To this end, she has positioned herself as Mortalkind's Mother figure, ruling the world from the shadows as the secret leader of the New World Trading Company.
She wields the power of Hellfire, a burning, malevolent blackness that burns away anything it touches, leaving no trace, not even memories. She used this power in conjunction with the weapon found on Palanquin to destroy all memory of the Forgotten Age, including her rise to power.
She also created the Spine of the World, a series of mountainous black crystalline islands that span the entire New World, with the island of Pangea at its centre. These crystals serve as enormous arcane foci, creating an immense forcecage spell around the entire planet, preventing anyone from entering or leaving the planet's atmosphere.
She is the one responsible for destroying the Ancient Kingdom and trapping all life in a tiny box amidst a sea of stars. If the world is to ever be made truly free, then she must be stopped and her crystal box shattered. Only The Kraken has the power to do this, but without hearing the Song of the Sea in its entirety, the beast is far too chaotic and disconnected to mount such an offence, and so instead mindlessly ravages the sea and any that sails it.
