The Weird

Overview
  A core theme is that anyone - whether individuals or groups - can explore and change the world.
With this comes the Wyrd; The force of fate that binds people together into the stories of legend.
So widespread is this phenomenon, that it has grown into a worldwide tradition called Wayfaring.
Wayfarers can vary wildly, from local folk-heroes, to famous adventurers, or exoplanar explorers.  
The Scapegoats
A group of Wayfarers, known as 'The Scapegoats'.

The Wyrd
  Derived from 'weird', the Wyrd is a mysterious property of the universe, akin to personal destiny.
Though shaped by the choices and actions of mortals, some believe that it has a will of its own.
The supposed influence of its will varies from turns of luck, to prophecies which span the ages.
Those who uncover the secrets of the Wyrd unlock the doors of the universe, to new possibilities.  
Wayfarers
  The fates of those who travel together inevitably become intertwined, for better or for worse.
This gives Wayfarers the strength to face great destinies, whether they embrace or reject it.
As they impact the lives of more people, even small actions can have far-reaching consequences.
Whether beloved or reviled, such Wayfarers are frequently the subject of stories and legends.
