When the Prim touches Sundara, it has an effect on the realm, often a major one, and 100 Effects of a Primquake has 100 such to encounter. They can be used as dangers and potential adventure hooks.
Columns and pillars are commonly found in large areas, where they help to hold up the roof. They may be plain or extensively carved. The columns in 100 Columns and Pillars to Find in a Dungeon (C&C), however, are far stranger. In some cases they appear incapable of holding the ceiling up. Some are odd, some are dangerous and some may potentially be a source of adventure hooks.
Characters may hear rumours whilst asking around for information and 100 Hooks and Rumours for Fading Suns II has 100 such to hear. They can be used as colour, misinformation or potential adventure hooks.

The Strange is a game published by Monte Cook Games. It is, at least in part, set in the normal world, but there are other worlds out there, in the Strange. This list has ten rumours for that setting, similar to the various different adventure hooks in the books, and these can be used as adventure hooks or simple misinformation.
Genetic codes capable of creating truly dangerous creatures can be obtained in Shome in the Periphery, though it’s said that the buyer should check everything carefully before attempting to make such beings. It’s said that a few buyers have ended up dying at the claws and fangs of the things they were trying to create, due to not checking that they had bought what they thought they had bought.
Lady Kasin-dar, of the Fortress of Favors, is known to extract marrow from often-unwilling subjects for the genetic needs of the black-market. It’s rumoured, though, that she also extracts genetic material for her own needs; some say she is suffering from a terrible genetic disease caused by her research that requires regular transfusions of clean genetic material to keep in check.
Mendalla is the unseen crime lord who rules the organisation known as the Onomasticon. Given that no-one has seen Mendalla, there are plenty of rumours about him. Some of these suggest that he’s actually a respected figure in Ruk society who rules the Onomasticon as a way of operating on both sides of the law.
Shome in the Periphery is a lawless city where it’s possible to buy goods that the major factions don’t want selling. Or, at least, that’s what’s normally stated. There are rumours that sometimes the goods being sold by the criminals of Shome are supplied to them by the factions, though it’s unclear as to why this would be done.
Some of Ruk’s factions have outposts and installations in the Periphery, including mobile harvesters and resource barges. There are rumours of a quiet war happening amongst these outposts, as the factions strive with each other for advantage, though never going so far as to instigate open conflict; little enough comfort to those in the way.
The average citizen of Ruk believes that those who venture into the Periphery is either unbalanced in some way or a criminal. To the extent that some citizens are claiming that everyone who does so needs stopping from returning to Harmonius, as they are clearly a bad influence that needs to be kept out of the Glistening City.
The Fortress of Favors is home to Lady Kasin-Dar, who has the ability to rip bones from one individual and splice them into others. The Factol Council and the Myriand have both warned the Lady from using any of the citizens of Harmonius for her experiments, but it’s rumoured that sometimes the council sends citizens who need to be punished to her.
The Onomasticon is a criminal organisation that keeps a database of genetic profiles; given that such can be used to create a whole host of person-specific things from toxins to mind-control parasites, it is extremely illegal. Though the Onomasticon primarily sells such data to others, it’s rumoured that they have gradually been collecting the genetic profiles of people in positions of power, influence or simple utility in order for the organisation to increase its power by controlling them.
Underground tunnels link Shome in the Periphery to the Shadowed City beneath Harmonius. There is a rapid transit system, like a pneumatic tube filled with mucous, that runs through the tunnels, making travel much faster. Though it’s rumoured that not everyone who enters the mucous reaches their destination; some are said to be devoured by the mucous, which is a living creature, so that it can continue to function.
Various groups have attempted to shut down the criminal organisation known as the Onomasticon over the years, with no success. It’s rumoured that other groups have tried to infiltrate the organisation in order to control it too, but if any of these have been successful in this, no-one is telling.
