Nightlings

The Nightlings are a race in the Advancerverse who are largely shrouded in mystery. Once heralded as champions of magic and good omens, they have become mistrusted by most of humanity and were forced to migrate to the twin islands of Jaona far from any other region. They worship the The Three Nightling Gods of Chronum, Darkim and Aetheram, and wield their respective magics. A highly advanced race, they are years ahead of most of the world in terms of scientific advancement, and have gained mastery over things such as climate control, magnetic levitation and--supposedly--the manipulation of time itself.

Government
Nightling government is overseen by two main groups, being the High Council and the Order of Night. The high council oversees the economical and civil aspects of the country, while the Order oversees religion. Priests of the Order of Night are the only people granted permission to train in the discipline of Chronum, as it is a dangerous and unwieldy ability.
