Soom was a low-tech planet on which the techno-mage Elric made his home with his apprentice Galen.[1]

Lifeforms[]

Many species of Soom animal lifeforms share a distinctive characteristic in which their knee joints bend backwards.

  • Soom: Indigenous sentient humanoids.
  • Jab: Domesticated animal, notable for its long, low-to-the-ground cylindrical body, muscular legs, scaly pink skin and a needle-sharp retractable sting on its forehead.
  • Swug: Bulky, bumpy skinned animal partial to sea spree, salt water and kwa blossoms.

Notable Locations[]

  • Drel: A desert city, located a continent away from Tain.
  • Tain: Located on the coast and one of Soom's largest cities, Tain serves as a center of trade and features Soom's one and only spaceport. In 2258, the city was controlled by the corrupt leader known as the "Rook of Tain", or "His Exaltedness" as he preferred.
  • Lok: Small town located near Tain. Elric made his home here. The townspeople would often request the aid of Elric to settle disputes. While Elric did not like to display his powers in front of them, he would occasionally entertain them with delightful illusions.
