: A void whale. Most commonly observed in the swimming in the earth's atmosphere, where they come to breath air. But they spend most of their time in the void of space, where they dive to great depths.

<dt id="dwrlugh">Dwrlugh</dt>
: Dwrlugh are creatures from under the earth.
They have a natural affinity for stone and metal,
which they can seemingly work with merely a touch.
Their skill and craftsmanship is unparalleled in all of Basmentaria.
Though they admire the handiwork of the Zephynos
and indeed lack their skill with cloudstuff,
the dwrlugh consider the cloud dragons undisciplined
and their work rather crude and unrefined.
They come in a great variety of shapes and sizes,
but on the whole are somewhat shorter
and more slender than a human.
Their flesh appears as though made of flecks and shards of stone,
as does their hair,
which grows on their head and their face
like a lion's mane.
Their eyes seem to smolder like coal
or glow like molten gemstone.
Dwrlugh refuse given names,
referring to one another by any number
of (often changing) descriptions
such as location, deed, relationship, etc.

### 00072 {#00072}
In the days that follow,
you move Marvelo into the Milk Market
to care for him.
The reclusive Blacksmith of Vay'Nullar
(a dwrlugh who---as is the case with its kind---refuses to go by any given name)
makes a rare appearance outside of its forge
to present Marvelo with a new artificial jaw
made of polished granite and bronze.
It will never be mistaken for flesh,
but it does somewhat complement the golden tones
of Marvelo's skin.
With the skill of a surgeon,
and craftmanship only the dwrlugh are capable of,
the Blacksmith affixes the jaw onto Marvelo's bones
with small screws,
and sews his muscles to the opening and closing mechanisms
so that it operates naturally.
Marvelo grows stronger as the days go by.
His recovery is no doubt accelerated
by the hemogoblin,
who provides ample transfusions
and refuses to leave his bed.
Though he will ever be physically scarred by his encounter with the Nyxmaer,
he soon enough is able to eat and drink on his own.

Dwrlugh are creatures from under the earth. They have a natural affinity
for stone and metal, which they can seemingly work with merely a touch.
Their skill and craftsmanship is unparalleled in all of Basmentaria.
Though they admire the handiwork of the Zephynos and indeed lack their
skill with cloudstuff, the dwrlugh consider the cloud dragons
undisciplined and their work rather crude and unrefined. They come in a
great variety of shapes and sizes, but on the whole are somewhat shorter
and more slender than a human. Their flesh appears as though made of
flecks and shards of stone, as does their hair, which grows on their
head and their face like a lions mane. Their eyes seem to smolder like
coal or glow like molten gemstone. Dwrlugh refuse given names, referring
to one another by any number of (often changing) descriptions such as
location, deed, relationship, etc.
