Halventar

Halventar is a fictional astronomical object that appears in the lore of the tabletop role-playing game Pathfinder. It is described as a celestial body, often referred to as a "world-star" or "wandering star," which is not part of any known solar system and drifts through the void between worlds. Halventar is not a planet in the conventional sense, nor is it a star that generates its own light and heat. Instead, it is depicted as possessing a unique, inherent luminescence and a mysterious, often unpredictable trajectory.

The nature of Halventar is a subject of much speculation within the Pathfinder setting. Some scholars suggest it is a fragment of a primordial creation, a cosmic anomaly, or even a dying god. Its appearance in the skies is often associated with significant events, omens, or periods of magical flux. Navigators and astrologers study its movements closely, attempting to decipher its meaning and predict its path, though its erratic nature makes this a challenging endeavor. Encounters with Halventar are rare and can be dangerous, as its proximity can warp magical energies, cause strange atmospheric phenomena, and even affect the minds of sentient beings. Some legends claim that specific rituals or artifacts can harness its power, though these are often shrouded in myth and peril. Its true origin and purpose remain one of the enduring mysteries of the Pathfinder cosmology.
