Kalashtar
Family and neighbourhood networks with shared customs of dreams, calm, and mental privacy.
Place in Avarra
Dream Threshold is a small but open settlement in Meridian Rivers, established around Asteron riverbanks. It is not a separate kingdom viewed from outside; it is a village or quarter node tied to neighbouring roads, markets, and common law.
City life and diaspora
In Ordanor, Kalashtar households participate in mediation and night-watch listening without being confined to a single “foreign quarter.” Someone arriving from the village can find kin, an apprenticeship, a guest bed, or a partner; city-born people maintain regular ties to Dream Threshold.
Living together
Kalashtar are not reduced to one temperament, profession, or politics. Local agreements, access needs, and safety practices are made explicit so difference remains part of ordinary life. Their visible expertise is mediation and night-watch listening, but it is never anyone’s compulsory destiny.
Adventure ties
- The partnership between Dream Threshold and Ordanor can be tested by a cut road or a lost record.
- A family may need mediation between local custom and city law.
- A character may belong to this record through a guild, neighbourhood, or road oath as well as ancestry.
