Player-Facing Lore
- Identity: The Church drives the cultural dominance of the Brennan people. They named the continent Sysia after their revered Saint Sysia, whose spear serves as the church's holy symbol.
- The Argonknights: The elite police force and protectors of Aquamara. They are known to draw power from their blood via specialized Blood Rites (such as the Rite of Illumination), which allows them to light their weapons with radiant energy. However, it is rumored that this power comes at a physical cost to the user.
- Recent Events: Following the attack on the Audioplane, Commander Adelina announced she was stepping down as acting Commander to take a sabbatical. She revealed she is traveling to the holy site of her order in the Deep Mire swamp to seek answers regarding the order's condition.

She is a human paladin who specializes in smiting undead with her holy longsword. Adelina is also skilled in defensive techniques, using her shield to protect herself and her allies.
- Brother Caedmon: A half-elf cleric of Saint Sysia, Caedmon is a devout and pious member of the Argonknights. He is a skilled healer and his spells can turn undead, causing them to flee or be destroyed. In combat, Caedmon wields a mace, and his spells can bolster his allies or hinder his enemies.
- Sister Elsbeth: A dwarven fighter, Elsbeth is a tough and resilient member of the Argonknights. She wears heavy armor and wields a warhammer, using her strength to deal heavy blows to her enemies. Elsbeth is also skilled in combat maneuvers, using her shield to knock enemies off balance and gain an advantage.
- Brother Garret: A halfling rogue, Garret is a nimble and agile member of the Argonknights. He uses his small size to dart in and out of combat, striking from the shadows with his short sword. Garret is also skilled in stealth and infiltration, able to scout ahead and gather information about his enemies.
- Sister Mara: An elven ranger, Mara is a skilled tracker and archer. She uses her bow to strike at enemies from a distance, and her knowledge of the wilderness allows her to navigate difficult terrain with ease.
