Significant Sites and Communities on Orcus
Recordance
The residence city of the Cacogen. It is headache-inducing
jangle of crystalline growths, extending far above and below the surface of
Orcus. The actual population of Cacogen is small, and one is more likely to
encounter Ancilla going about their duties.
Embassy of the
Abjected, Speakers to Filth
An adjunct or suburb or Recordance. This is a surprisingly beautiful structure of crystal panes
and silver filigree, the size of a small Aereth city and containing a number of discrete habitats for citizens of
the various worlds of the Solar System. A small number of beings have gathered here
with the goal of treating with the Cacogen.
The ambassadors themselves are among the most centered, enlightened
beings the Solar System has to offer. All will have WIS and CON stats of
15+1d6. They train for years at mortifying their senses in hopes of inuring
themselves to the presence of Cacogen.
At their prime, an ambassador will have as many as three
conversations with the Cacogen before retiring.
It is enormously expensive to fund such a conversation, and
it is said that the Embassy contains unheard of quantities of treasure.
Pludgerow
A site of unknown purpose on the opposite side of the planet
from Recordance. Here the Ancilla gather and endlessly rearrange the surface of
the planet in a vast sludge-work labyrinth. Sometimes materials are placed in
sections of the labyrinth: globes of helium, thin sheets of beaten copper,
ingots of sulfur, spindles wound with chains of eyelashes, an emerald the size of a cantaloupe. They will randomly
removed or exchanged.
The Ancilla
These onyx golems are the servants of the Cacogen.They come in a variety of sizes.
