Spread throughout the Obsidian Grove, tucked away in their secret lairs, are entities known as Watchers. Nobody knows why they are here, where they came from, or what they want. They are unlike anything else in the Grove, incomparable to even the enigmatic Guardians. However, they have still managed to work their way into the collective imagination of the denizens of the Grove by becoming characters in their folktales, monsters in their nightmares, and gods to worship and seek counsel from.

ENCOUNTERS
To say that reliable information on the watchers is rare would be an understatement. Nearly all of what we know is from secondhand accounts, and most of these witnesses cannot completely, or satisfactorily, explain what they saw, heard, and felt. Still, we have tried our best to recount these experiences in the stories and notes listed below:
NOTABLE FIGURES
Rak'Xil, the Witness
Zis'Thulas, the Manipulator
Eil'Luna, the Oracle
Vel'Shaar, the Resplendent
Naar'Zul, the Arbiter
