The Forgotten Ones are notorious, rebelling slaves from the era of the Evanuris. They were the rebels who held the most power within the rebellion. These Elvhen would have worked alongside Fen'Harel to free the Elvhen slaves from the Evanuris' grasp. We come to this conclusion from various codex entries regarding them, which is all that the wiki has provided us. So staff has taken the liberty to fill in the blank and create our own onsite lore regarding the Forgotten Ones.

“There are no gods. There is only the subject and the object, the actor and the acted upon. Those with will to earn dominance over others gain title not by nature but by deed. I am Geldauran and I refuse those who would exert will upon me. Let Andruil's bow crack, let June's fire grow cold. Let them build temples and lure the faithful with promises. Their pride will consume them, and I, forgotten, will claim power of my own, apart from them until I strike in mastery."

This is just one example of a codex entry that tells us: the Forgotten Ones did not subscribe to the Evanuris worship, they were not part of the craze. Geldauran wants revenge on the Evanuris for their treatment of the Elvhen slaves, and perhaps even himself. Fen'Harel, being the "Rebel God" who went between the Evanuris and the Forgotten Ones, indicates that he had a relationship that is not talked about with the Forgotten Ones. If they were ex-slaves, who had left the Evanuris' temples and cities, this would make sense—essentially, they would be in exile from the rest of society.

Even the Forgotten Ones name as a group, implies that they were forgotten by society, and slaves were often forgotten—never to stand out amongst the rest, they are thought of to be nothing within the societal structure they had abandoned. It's theorized that the Forgotten Ones used this group title to indicate that they stood for all of the slaves, those who blend into the rest and are forgotten due to their position in the hierarchy. Perhaps the Evanuris had a hand in naming the group—afraid that if the Forgotten Ones were able to reach all of the Elvhen people, that they (the Evanuris) would have nobody left to worship them.

ANARIS, BELIEVED TO ENJOY PUZZLES

He loved nothing more than a good game, or so the stories go. Tempt him with a bet, or a riddle, for he is always looking for some new novelty. He cannot turn down a challenge, for his love of games is rivaled only by his desire to win at all costs. Some legends say he once made a bet with The Cunning One, and lost the game. But The Cunning One disappeared before they could claim their prize, and Anaris searches for them always, for he hates nothing more than owing a debt.

Anaris enjoys riddles, puzzles, games, tricks. He would have been the one attempting to trick the Evanuris, in such ways as: 'if I win this bet, you have to release one-hundred slaves.' His wit and cunning are why he is remembered, and why not much else is known about him. Anaris is also the type of person to have hated owing a debt, and insisting on paying that debt immediately as it came to be owed. There is nothing to indicate this character's morality, but know that sometimes accidents happen and tricks can go wrong.

DAERN'THAL, BELIEVED TO BRING NIGHTMARES

Daern'thal is believed to bring nightmares to the dreamers, because how else do you explain nightmares? Whether that is true or not, is a moot point, as it is likely that Daern'thal controlled fire (we know this from the fact one of his priests uses a specialized fire-affinity staff) in ways that people would consider nightmareish. Furthermore, when one controls a light source, such as fire, one can also control the shadows. It would not be beyond reason to assume that Daern'thal controlled shadows, too.

He may have used these abilities to try to undermine the Evanuris, gifting them nightmares in an attempt to fuel their fall. It could be theorized that he gifted them the first seed of doubt against Mythal—and inadvertantly caused her death, which did lead to the Evanuris' downfall. But he may not have seen all of the possible outcomes.

GELDAURAN, HAD THE ABILITY TO NULLIFY MAGIC

If you're fighting against mages who believe they are god, what better tool to have up your sleeve than the ability to nullify their magic? Bring them to equal ground as the slaves they lord over? It's theorized that Geldauran was an extremely revenge-fueled person, wanting to place the Evanuris off of their pedestal and let the regular people of the Elvhen nation have them. The idea of nullification could also come from the fact Geldauran would refuse "the claim laid on him by those who place themselves above him", indicating that he said no to worshipping the Evanuris and saw them for what they were.

It's very likely that this person had an extremely strong, unbending will, and used that to try and lead other Elvhen slaves out from under the oppression applied to them by the Evanuris.
