Den-realm

A Den-Realm is a patch from the Umbra that is tied to a Shapeshifter and serves as his personal retreat. Most Den-Realms are tie to areas in the physical reality and provide a tunnel into the Near Umbra, so that stepping sideways or using similar ways to get into the Umbra are easier. Den-Realms are well protected and its difficult to breach their defenses.

The Bastet and Gurahl are among the most frequent users of Den-Realms and the Nagah have devolped a variant that is called an Ananata.
