Traversed: Humans crossed over from the real world to Infernis by the Soulway. They possess the unique potential to be incredibly powerful sorcerers, even compared to natives of Infernis. According to Brodin, not all Traversed unlock their potential and they eventually become failures, shells of their true potential.
Traversed that unlock their potential and become capable sorcerers are highly sought after by all the factions in Infernis.
When crossed, a Traversed will become one of three: A Sorcerer, A Graced One, or a Cursed One.
Infernis: The Mortal Plane, separate from the real world in this other universe. It houses several continents but the main one is Terra, the supercontinent that contains most of the Mortals.
