Legends of Tomorrow - The After Story of Remnant's Justice League

Months prior to the Fall of Beacon, an alien being known as Starro invaded the world of Remnant from an unknown alternate dimension, attempting to conquer the planet with its unique psychic abilities. In response, Starro's old enemy Jessica Cruz had gathered Team RWBY of Beacon Academy and various others in order to finally defeat her alien enemy and save Remnant. After the battle was over and Team RWBY returned to their duty at Beacon, the re...

Foregone Fables - The Story of The Warrior King

The Great War between the Four Great Kingdoms of Remnant took place nearly a century ago, but it still has a profound impact on the world today. From the calendar divider of BV/AV (Before/After the Vytal treaty) to the color-based naming tradition embraced by nearly everyone on the planet, every facet of Remnant's modern society has been touched in some way by the Great War's legacy... And yet, not many have put any thought into the stories be...

Foregone Fables Chapter ???: WE ARE YOU

Soundtrack: Dreamer's Paradise

Two suns circling each other began to rise over a thick tangled jungle, painting its sky yellow as many of the forest's animals began to wake up and others returned to their slumber. Before long, some of these animals began to notice that this morning was colder than most; Initially they paid no mind, nor were many of them concerned with t...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Plant

The art of merging Dust to create Fusion-Type Dust has been known for some time, and so far it has produced several types of Dust with varying functions, ranging from enhanced versions of an ingredient Dust type's ability, to reaching heights far beyond the limitations of the original two elements. But recently, the brilliant minds of Atlas have come together and created a Dust Alloy that is not only utterly unlike its component, but unlike ev...

Sea of Nightmares Creatures Guide - Big Daddy Ace

The International Order Of Pawns was founded in 1956 by Orrin Oscar Lutwidge, a man who began to suspect the existence of Rapture after unwittingly providing Andrew Ryan with the lion's share of constructing material to build it. Three years later, Lutwidge arrived at Rapture by himself, leaving the I.O.O.P. leaderless, and later escaped back to the surface as a result of the 1959 Rapture civil war. Years later, in 1967, the I.O.O.P. began to ...

Foregone Fables Primal Dust Guide - Darkness

The humans in the world of Remnant have always seen Dust as a gift from the Gods, a holy light used to slay the sons of darkness. Throughout its history, Dust has taken many forms, many powers, some of them beginning to stand in contrast with the common, pure view of Dust. The best example of this is Darkness Dust, which creates and controls the very antithesis of the light usually attributed to Dust.

Similar to Light Dust, Shadow Dust i...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Gravity

The magical ability of Dust is almost always associated with the elements, and is capable of generating substances from solid rock to burning fire. Dust is a magical material made to allow humanity to wield and control nature and its elements, the same purpose behind the Four Seasonal Maidens and other similar sources of magic. However, humanity enjoys outdoing itself, and so they did by creating a type of Dust which goes beyond the elements, ...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Combustion

While the art of merging different Dust components together to create new Dust is seen by many as a recent development, it has actually existed for quite some time and has been the basis for major technological advances in the modern world. While “natural” deposits of Ice and Lava Dust show that even ancient cultures had this knowledge, the earliest type of Dust Alloy to be rediscovered in the modern era is Combustion Dust.

Created f...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Ice

Cold is one of the elements that, rather than being something of their own, is a lack of something else: heat. To humans and other animals, however, cold manifests as a phenomenon of its own, or for the more creative of the bunch, an element. One of the most ancient forms of Fusion-Type Dust was created for that reason, and to harness this element. Ice Dust, Snow Dust, Cold Dust, Frost Dust - it is one of the more versatile Fusion-Types out th...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Lava

While the world of Remnant is comprised mostly of rock and metal, much of that rock and metal is not in a solid form, but a liquid. Most people are familiar with that liquid as the burning blood that comes out of volcanoes, and the name they give it is lava or magma. Only recently have humans been able to fuse the magical Dust of fire and rock to create a substance that will enable them to wield magma as they wield water.

Magma Dust is u...

Project Sound Souls Bestiary: Sin Warriors

Soul-Spawns, more formally known as Angels, are beings formed out of fragments of a powerful being's Soul, most commonly Gods, and are a living, sentient extension of that being's will. Those monstrosities come in many different shapes and many different levels of strength, from standard foot soldiers to eldritch beasts rivaling Gods. Different beings summon different types of fragment soldiers, of course, and those share traits and abilities ...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Metal

Unlike Earth, Water, Air and Fire, Metal is something hard to come about naturally, and is much more often seen in artificial constructs and as such associated with human construction and technology. However, most types of Metal are naturally occurring and existed long before mankind learned to harness them. The first and foremost instance of humans using metal unsurprisingly manifests in the form of a magical Dust made to contain and release ...

Sea of Nightmares Creatures Guide - Basic Annelids

The Many is a massive hive mind entity plaguing the multiverse, from the depths of the ocean to the depths of outer space. What makes these beings especially dangerous is their ability to infect humans and other animals and transform them into part of their own being. While they have great psychic ability to hook up others to themselves, the usual way The Many multiply is with their Annelids.

Annelids are an artificial lifeform created b...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Diamond

Crystal Dust, while not very powerful on its own, is a key component in creating multiple other, exceptionally strong types of Dust. Glass Dust is a material in two different Dust Fusions; merging it with Fire Dust creates Obsidian Dust, and merging it with Metal Dust creates the exact opposite: Diamond Dust.

Like its "Twin", Diamond Dust was invented relatively recently and is mostly created anew. It's usually in liquid form. It's sligh...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Obsidian

Glass, in its common state, is not quite powerful on its own. It has its strengths, but not often does it possess a place of honor in a huntsman or huntress' arsenal. However, Crystal Dust can be improved on in more than one way. Combining it with Flame Dust creates something that is often overlooked, but has immense power: Obsidian.

Obsidian Dust is rare to find in nature and is mostly created by forging. It usually comes in liquid form...

Foregone Fables - The Story of Tartarus

Like any good series, RWBY has a lot of things going on behind the scenes. There are feint, subtle hints given that there are things going on far beyond Salem and Ozpin, far beyond the Gods and Relics. Our current story is no different from the ones about Roman and Cinder in volume 1-3, and Foregone Fables emphasizes that.

Tartarus is a perfect example. Who is Tartarus? It is not mentioned in either timeline, and likely never will, but i...

Foregone Fables Dust Alloys Guide - Steam

The knowledge of magic and creating Dust has been long lost, though there are a few individuals who has kept the knowledge, and some who have re-discovered it. However, much of the world's research and development communities have a knowledge of something with much potential: Ways to fuse different types of Dust together to create powerful alloy-type Dust with effects of new elements.

This knowledge has existed for some time, and alloy-t...

Man is the cruelest of rulers.

Life is like an old rusty phonograph record.

Something that was once important and is now but trash.

As one grows in strength, they have less to fear.

I have nothing to fear but my own shadow.

BOLVERK "Flame" Trailer

There are things that look like diseases but give an advantage.

Precisely because of that, we might have to cure them.

Sea of Nightmares Creatures Guide: The Little Daddy

LOT 215 is a special purpose ADAM-based Serum that is used by the many factions existing within Rapture, and recently other secret locations, on small female children, along with other serums and treatments to create the basic form of a Gatherer, the Little Sister. Some folks' scientific curiosity however, made them wonder what would be the serum's effect on an adult or male.

The serum works by affecting a specific type of gland in the f...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Glass

Water. Earth. Fire. Air. The fundamental constructs of the world exist everywhere, and so is the Dust created by ancient cultures to control them. Magic to control fire, ice and lightning exists in other magic containers, such as the Seasonal Maidens. But controlling such trivial materials wasn't enough. Humanity kept on going and creating. Other, rarer types of Dust exist across the world, some of them have specialized abilities beyond the Ma...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Lightning

Ever since humans have evolved in the world, they looked into the sky in awe. Knowing nothing of it, or their own origins, the humans believed that the sky is the home of the deities that created them. To these humans, weather was an indication of the gods' mood; a clear blue sky meant the gods were calm, while grey clouds and rain meant they were angry, usually at the humans. But when the gods were beyond angry, when they int...

Sea of Nightmares - Little Sister Retcons

Ah Little Sisters, the BioShock series' greatest symbol right after Big Daddies. The basic concept of the Gatherers have gone through many incarnations over the development of the first game; originally it was nonexistent at all and the player were to simply collect the ADAM-producing sea slugs themselves. Later this idea was favored over by a concept of implanting the slugs inside other creatures, ranging from frogs and crabs to chipmunks and...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Air

Air is more important for the survival of a human than water is; a human person can survive for nearly a week without water, but not an hour without air. And yet air doesn't have nearly as much presence in the human cultures, and is often ignored completely. That is because air is invisible, ubiquitous, and is present everywhere on the planet. Aside from underwater, there is almost no place in Remnant that isn't filled with air. Moreover, air ...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Earth

The amount of earth in Remnant is far more abundant than air or water, let alone fire. The planet itself, from the crust to the core, composes of this material. Despite of, and maybe because of that, earth is not an element that is often paid attention, and its place in Remnant's cultures is rarely more than background.

It is apparent this wasn't always the case. Earth is one of the earliest forms of matter for mankind to cease control o...

Foregone Fables Dust Guide - Water

Out of the countless "elements" that compose this world, water is without a doubt the one closest to humanity's heart. Humans, and most lifeforms on Remnant, can't live without water. A human's body consists of over two thirds water, and other animals possess similar percentages.

Of course, the most notable exception is the aliens known as Grimm, which aren't made of water, or any matter at all. Humans have made this another reason to be...
