The Common Divisor--Simply put, the Common Divisor is a mythical sword that can cut through anything. While its benefits on the battlefield are obvious, the Common Divisor can also cut through Time, Space, Toril's magic Weave, etc. There are various fables and folktales on the planes about the sword cutting this or that, each more clever and embellished than the last. The sword cut through identity, the sword cut through the past and changed history, etc. Most agree that the Axioms created the sword from the silver light of pure Law, but Pi stole it immediately upon his creation and ran. Whether the Axioms allowed this to happen is unclear, but...

Living Sets are akin to living spells, but rather than being manifestations of magic they are manifestations of Law. As such, most living sets are either LE, LN, or LG and only in rare cases are they chaotic. Each living set has some assortment of magical abilities which it uses in its chosen mission. They cannot be seen save by spells such as true-seeing, which reveal an amobea like creature formed from light. Geometric crystals sparkle within its body, flickering with their own energies. Sets vary in color and size as well. The origin of living sets is unclear, some believe they arise from the plane of Mechanus, others suspect the hand of the mysterious Axioms. The beings may come from Mechanus, but they are found across the planes though they are incredibly rare to the point many believe members to be unique.

These magical items, which range in power from minor trinkets to powerful artifacts, are usable only by members of the Geometer prestige class from Complete Arcane. In your own game you may wish to make them available to Guvners, or other classes as appropriate.

Legends speak of a group of marraenoloths who, tainted by the greed of their race, sought to find the Axioms and use an artifact in their possession to usurp their power. Somehow, these planar travelers managed to find the hidden kingdom of the Axioms who emerged from their immaculate dwellings of perfect geometries. Upon seeing the indescribable beauty of those who are Foundation of All Things, the marraenoloths surrended without a battle and begged only to serve.

Zahlen, the Sea of light, darkness, and void

Even on the Plane of Law, a god can die. However, the thought of crumbling edifices is anethma to the mediators who regulate the plane. However, the lingering power of a god leaves evidence of its passing all the same for even the mediators have limits to their power.

Now, the Mathematicians are usually seen as a harmless bunch tinkering on Mechanus, but what if they are creating math, thereby adding to the overall Law in the multiverse. Perhaps they are creating moignos with each equation, and an army of moignos will overrun the Great Wheel and descend upon Limbo. But Ygorl has a trick up his sleeve--the irrational numbers, which outnumber the rationals and surround them "like the night surrounds the stars."

This excerpt was found on a fragment of parchment from what appears to be a textbook found on a long forgotten shelf in the Library of Entropy on the Negative Energy Plane.  It details events that have not yet happened, horrible events that may or may not ever come to pass.  It is being disseminated as a warning to all of those who dwell on Mechanus and all those who value Law.

Author: The Ziggurat spider is found mostly in Marduk's layer. It spins red glowing webs that spiral downwards, like an inverted ziggurat. It is the size of a plum, however it is appreciated by tanar'ri and mortals alike as a delicacy and hallucinogen. It's not venomous or dangerous to human-sized creatures, but swarms attack manes and other small things.

This last law has become a problem for two youngsters in the village.
