The major languages in Creation are:

  • High Realm: The language of the Dragon-Blooded nobles and their servitors and the language used for all official business in the Realm.
  • Low Realm: The speech of the Realm's commoners.
  • Old Realm: The language of the Old Realm. This is the language of many oral and written spells, as well as the language of First Age tomes. Characters must have Lore 1 or greater to purchase this language. Old Realm is also the native tongue for spirits, demons and the Fair Folk.
  • Riverspeak: The language of the Scavenger Lands. Also the common parlance of the Guild. Full of loan words, it is used by almost every trader and merchant in Creation.
  • Skytongue: A language family spoken in the Threshold regions of the North.
  • Flametongue: A language family spoken in the Threshold regions of the South.
  • Seatongue: A language family spoken in the Threshold archipelagoes of the West.
  • Forest-tongue: A language family spoken in the Threshold region of the East.
  • Guild Cant: A secret language spoken only by members of the Guild. (Characters must have Backing [Guild] at 2 or higher to know this language.)
  • Tribal Tongues (various): Languages spoken by groups of barbarians. For each dot of Linguistics purchased, a character may know four tribal tongues.
