Empyrean is the broad term for the various cultures of beings that once inhabited Auberean.[1] The term "Empyrean" was coined by the famous explorer Alatar Locke.[2][3] Empyreans are tall, slender, humanoid beings[3], with normal lifespans of 1000 years.[1][4] They are especially adept with magic.[3] Although the various cultures of the Empyreans have existed on Auberean for over 30,000 years[5], it is theorized by Alatar Locke that they are not native to Auberean, and instead came here with a singular purpose which has been lost with the passing of time.[6]
