Pelag ai Aldam (Gamgweth for "Servant of Fate") is one of the denizens of the Astral Plane. His origins are unclear; some believe him to be an entity created wholly within the Plane of Probability or Astral Plane, while others believe he may have once been a mortal Seer. Regardless of his true origin, he currently resides in the Astral Plane and pursues intruders with single-minded, murderous intent. An encounter with Pelag ai Aldam typically ends with the unlucky Moon Mage being maliciously deposited in the Grey Expanse, and death soon follows.

Pelag ai Aldam is the archetypal perfect Seer, with absolute and unerring foresight. His abilities grant him unspeakable power while simultaneously limiting that power; any action he takes is bound up in strands of extreme fatalism, since he already knows what will happen before he does anything. He was named by Nera and has sought to murder Moon Mages (whom he calls "Defilers") ever since the Naming Ritual was developed, implying that their mental influence on the Astral and Probability planes have corrupted the design of Fate itself.

In contrast to his powerful nature, Pelag manifests as a patently unextraordinary Human man with pale skin, red hair, and a malicious smile.
