Before they were legends, they were just five sellswords and spell-slingers trying to make rent on their next inn room. Bound not by blood, but by five oaths—one each, shouted over a campfire, half-drunk and wholly sincere—they became known across the realms as The Fivefold Oaths.
Some say the name refers to their sacred promises. Others say it’s just how many times they swore in a single sentence.
Either way, the name stuck… and so did their reputation.
From Adventurers to Entrepreneurs
After saving the world, celebrating, and moving into the “what next?” stage of things, the group realized they needed help to build the dreams forming in their minds. They set out for the floating city of Nimbuspire to consult with the Aetherborn arcane masters.
Archmagister Patchouli “Patch” Stackwell was selected to help them. Realizing that this project would require new ways of thinking, he recruited a cadre of apprentices and journeymen mages. These new “magicks” needed to solve problems in ways never attempted before—and those solutions could then help other realms learn and grow.
The “nubimancy” project name came from a speech challenge Rini’s tusks gave her trying to say “The Aethernet Assembly” too many times. 😄
