About

Occasionally a mongrelfolk proves to be both remarkably tough and exceptionally fortunate, able to survive in the badlands for months or years, some even persisting for decades before a rogue lava jet or freak dust storm brings about their end.

Inevitably their diet becomes more dominated by mana until finally that is all that they consume, gradually accruing more and more magical power.

Those that are not transformed again into a new creature become known as wardens, fearsome warriors that stake out the most promising mineral-rich territories for themselves and they alone.
