Exathi

The Exathi were a race of non-Adepts in Weyard's ancient past. They were skilled engineers and smiths, and built powerful machines, such as the Alchemy Forge and Alchemy Well. Despite not being Adepts, they were well respected for their craftmanship. The town of Passaj is home to some of the decendants of the Exathi.

Their encyclopedia entry reads as follows:
 * "This ancient people gained the respect of the world-and even the Jenei-with their their great craftsmanship. Though the Exathi had no Psynergy, their skill made them partners witht he Jenei in creating things that used elemental power."
