Limehold is a megastructure bathed in intense radiation.

The bright light burning off of the High-Warlock refracts in Limehold’s atmosphere, setting a calming orange light on the bronze city below. Gears and oversized exhaust pipes expel hordes of steam and smoke as millions of craftsmen smith away below. Being the first civilization to gain the power of the High-Warlock, Limehold unified under a single nation and formed a planet-wide inventor city. |

The grassy paradise of Limehold birthed a species of intelligent life who would later call themselves the Travi. These incredibly curious organisms technologically progressed rapidly, even managing to make it to their closest satellite, Limechild. As curiosity and exploratory drive grew, the Travi began to wonder what gave them light. Their wonder-filled attention continued to bloom as a plan to venture out to their source of heat and light was written. The previously unknown explorer going by the name of Aria Woolwork was tasked with being the sole subject on the mission to observe the High-Warlock. In a lonely and anxiety-stricken trip, Aria finally reached the center of Sinister. After prying a crystal sample from a bone of the Warlock, she returned home with unknowing calm. The previously meadow drenched world was now covered in steam spewing cities. Aria wondered how they could’ve accomplished this in such a small amount of time. She was only gone for two years after all. As she landed, instead of being greeted with cheering, happy family members and excited scientists, Aria was instead welcomed with countless new and confused faces. The Travi now understood the concept of time dilation. Aria did not return home 2 years after her mission; She returned 1,000 years after. After extensive research on the sample brought back, the Travi researchers concluded that the bones of the High-Warlock were almost indestructible, being only damaged by stomach acid. After several years of more testing, the sample was given to Aria to ingest. The researchers on the project hypothesized that the stomach acid of a person would release the stored magic that they had detected within. Aria was the test subject in this case because the researchers felt it was immoral to strip her of her family and friends while giving someone else the hypothesized magic abilities that she retrieved. After consuming the bone fragment, Aria gained the power to move large amounts of iron freely through space. These abilities increased the Travi’s growth rate as the specie’s cost of metal only lessened as time went on. Although Aria experienced the intense loss of everything that she ever knew, she became the single most important individual in Travi’s history. |

The integration of a Bishop’s element into their Dexter Rod allows for many techniques to be created and honed. Not only can the flaming rod be elongated or shrunk at will by controlling the particles within the plasma, but it can also be pulled from the handle and used as a burning plasma projectile. |

Spatial Casting Gear is a concealable exo-brace that supports the legs of a user like a maneuverable metal cast. Using Pseudo-Pylons from the magic infused planet, the [[Order of Cobalt Sorcery#Crown of the Warlock|Crown of the Warlock]], Spatial Casting Gear (SCG) allows the wearer to bend small portions of space and perform incredibly limited "jumps" across short distance. This gear mimics super speed and allows the user to move at much higher speeds than any normal living being could. Because of its ability to bend space, G-force is not a problem; The only limit to the speed output of SCG, being energy constraints of the Pseudo-Pylons being used. |

In addition to the well known bending of space, SCG are also fitted with coin sized thrusters to allow minimal amounts of propulsion and flight. These devices are similarly powered by the Pseudo-Pylons within. |

Limehold is a megastructure bathed in intense radiation. Taking on the form of a great torus, the glass-like paneling that keeps in its atmosphere refracts this radiation, creating spectral iridescent patterns across the internal landscape as Limehold rotates. Air purifiers work tirelessly to filter the air from industrial byproducts as millions of workers process metals beneath its artificial lighting. Limehold is the final line of defense against those who seek The Benefactor, working tirelessly to recycle ancient artifacts into weapons and rout out any who seek that power for themselves.
