> What *I* would argue at the pinnacle of crazy is that the ur-Praxian Dying Man was named Genert and we call his pathetic shade the Father of Independents. He who once led the freaks and vestiges of the Garden before Waha taught his people another way. He who can navigate the Dead Place. Prince of hyenas. Garzeen's quest. The old law.
Here's a snippet from The RQ-Con 1 Compendium (1994): "In the Dead Place, does the nature of magic become a non-entity?
GS: Yes. It's a power sink. 46: So, if spirits are caught in that area, they're unable to function. GS: Yes. SP: Or they physically end up there. They drop out of the spirit plane. GS: That's right. There is no spirit or Godplane there. They manifest themselves without their spirit or god powers. They look like people, they look like animals, they look like plants. It's a good trap to get your enemy's god into the Dead Place. But nobody's foolish enough to do it."
