The People
The Creators of Abantey have each made people in their own image who follow the Ways of each creator. There are seven races, but only five, the Baluuds, Feeshans, Plajets, Sakeet and Wa'la are commonly known on Abantey. The other two, the Ta'as and Gnihton have been punished by the Creators and are banned from exploring most of Abantey.

The Creators
The Creators are seven mystical beings who traveled to Abantey long ago. They brought with them many secrets from their distant homes and created Abantey and its people. They take an active interest in their world and its people, and make sure that they follow the ways that they have set forth for their people.

The Ways of Abantey
Each of the Creators has established a set of Ways that his or her people must follow. The people that follow the Ways of their Creator are known as "Marked." The Ways define how a person should act, dress and behave. Each culture has their own set of Ways. To see what they are, look on the page of each race.
Many years ago a Ta'as wizard broke free of the Creators and formed the Rogue culture. Rogues are free of the influences of the Creators and follow whatever desires and motivations they want. Rogues look physically identical to Marked people of the same race, only they lack a Creator Mark and do not dress or act according to the strictures of the Ways.
There are large areas of Abantey that are controlled by the Rogues, and the Creators cannot see into or influence events in those areas. Rogues will occasionally travel into the Marked territories of Abantey, but they must be careful.
The Secret of Abantey
The entire world of Abantey is governed by a universal secret. This secret dictates the laws of magic, the Creators and many other things on Abantey. Discovering the nature of the Secret and how it relates to the characters is one of the main goals of the game at The Roleplay Workshop. In time, you will learn more about how and why things work, and someday may learn The Secret of Abantey.
