Historical Information
Age

Wisps are small, semi-sentient balls of light which dwell in remote locations throughout the world and are drawn to magical places of power and even people with a gift for magic. They appear relatively harmless at first glance but can defend themselves with tentacles of light if they're disturbed. Some stories claim that wisps may lead adventurers astray in swamps and forests while guarding great treasure although these rumours haven't been confirmed. It's a hypothesis among some mages that wisps might come into existence and live off of mana so they need to constantly replenish themselves with magic or they'll fade away.

In the Fourth Age, Anastasios Palaiologos, the grandfather of Daniel and Leon Palaiologos, proved to be capable of using wisps as spies all over the Land of the Living, coupling this with scrying magic boosted by the magic in Tel'Elee to make his own spy network.
