Prone to earthquakes and disasters adventurers come in droves to the jagged peaks of Uncontrolled. They fall into crevasses. They rescue animals from rising waters. They carry packs filled with water, knives, rope, and well-preserved food.
The denizens of Uncontrolled, sad and sloe-eyed, work to rebuild their homes again.
“We enjoy living on the edge of the world,” says the Guide.
“I’d be bored if my life was not at risk, if I did not need jugs of water and canned food,” says Uncontrolled denizen Mike Potter.
The Uncontrolled come together when disaster strikes, but otherwise ignore their neighbors.
The capitol Impulsive shines on the shore nearly invisible except for its shimmer. The denizens are translucent until the moment they take action when they become opaque.
They never plan, but act quickly upon ideas. In this way, they create art and lasting monuments. They are terrible diplomats.
No visas are available to Uncontrolled. Supplicants come to the capitol Impulsive where they may be accepted or denied on a whim.
The translucent nature of the denizens can be off-putting, even horrible. Miss Doe Friend was with an Impulsivian when the citizen's heart burst, “I saw the heart quake and seize — a terrible thing."
"But the Impulsive can be good company," says Miss Emeline Traveler. “More often than not, their whimsical ideas work out and are jolly good fun."
"Good fun!" says Amma-Pom.
