* DimensionLord: The Thon Iridescence is a vast simulated world, created by a long-gone alien civilization, consisting countless interconnected pocket worlds. These are either quotums, which operate on an agreed-upon set of rules and are meant to be inhabited by multiple beings, which can range from a small group's base to an entire civilization, or else domains, which are ruled by a single being with near-absolute power over their interiors and anyone who wanders in. The two sample domains given in ''Into the Night'' are Nestra, an ocean whose ruler, Ternya the Watcher, transforms visitors into beuatiful, mindless fishlike creatures that swim there in vast schools, and the Game of Perithog, where visitors are made to participate in complex and deadly games against Perithog the Grandmaster, with freedom and great prizes if they beat him and death if they lose.

** Thumans look like large hounds, with an almost human face. They are intelligent and affable companions, extremely loyal to their masters. Thumans are almost never encountered in the wild; they actively seek the company of humans. Given the importance of Feddik to [[OurFounder High Father Calaval]], the Aeon Priests of the Order of Truth have a strong connection to thumans. Breeders work closely with them and often become de-facto members of the local clave of larger cities.

* AlluringAnglerfish: Spiny schisans, eel-like predators found in the ocean depths, are a variation. While they do have a glowing lure at the tip of a stalk on their chin, their main way of attracting prey is with the kite-shaped, red and yellow fin at the end of their tail. Through their low-level telepathy, they make it seem like something a viewer swears they recognize from somewhere, luring them in to investigate and stumble into the schisan's mouth.

* HumanitysWake: An odd subversion. Humanity built at least one and likely several vast empires sometime in the last billion years, and then either went extinct, transcended physical reality or otherwise vanished. But now humanity is back, in roughly the same shape they were a billion years ago, living in the ruins of their own empire.
