史拉蟾领主Slaadi Lords
在 混沌海Limbo 位面上的法则与 奇点Primus 完全对立。在那里，在因素物质的漩涡浓汤中，栖息着史拉蟾的神力们：混沌领主the Lords of Chaos。
Primus's exact opposites rule on the plane of Limbo. There, in the swirling soup of elemental matter, live the slaadi powers: the Lords of Chaos.
没什么人会认为这些老鸟是真神。从史拉蟾那榨出的一点消息来看，对他们种族来说混沌领主们更像伟大的英雄（而非神明）。传言说，祂们真身是成功地在权力的阶梯上爬上了另一个台阶的 史拉亡蟾death slaadi。作为沌海之混沌的孩子，史拉蟾领主们探索着对祂们而言纯粹的可能性，并已发现了一些有些人觉得藏起来更好的秘密。
Few consider these bloods true deities. From what little's been wrung out of slaadi, it seems that the Lords of Chaos are more like great heroes to their race. Chant is they're really death slaadi that've managed to move up another rung on the ladder of power. By exploring the sheer possibilities available to them as the children of Limbo's chaos, they've discovered secrets that some think might have been better left hidden.
[印记城黑话：Blood—专家，智者或是任何领域的老鸟。一个角斗士冠军可以是一个 blood, 一个强大的巫师也可以是blood.称呼某人为blood是对其特别尊敬的一种表示.]
[印记城黑话：chant—表示新闻，本地闲话，事实，情形或者其他任何有关当前局势的事情. ]
祂们带着更大的能力离开了，但也确立自己作为独特个体的地位——不仅是在祂们自认独一无二，在诸位面的人们心中也是如此。每位领主都在寻求一种超脱史拉蟾形态展示的对混沌的表达，并且每位都具现了那种原始力量的独特滋味。
They've come away with greater abilities, but they've also established themselves as individuals, not only in their own minds but also in the minds of bashers across the planes. Each lord seeks an expression of chaos that's beyond what the slaadi form offers, and each embodies a unique flavor of that primal force.
[印记城黑话—Basher，某人，中性词。一般但不总是，暗指其是个暴徒或打手. ]
已知只有四位混沌领主的存在。其中最古老的是 癫狂女士the Lady of Insanity 森达姆Ssendam。据说，她是只巨大的金色阿米巴虫，一团不断外渗的混沌，任何凡人看见她就会发疯。森达姆已开发出一种精神力量，让她能粉碎思想、驱使民众——并更好地促进混乱。
Only four Lords of Chaos are known to exist. The oldest by far is Ssendam, the Lady of Insanity. It's said she's a great golden amoeba, a mass of oozing chaos, and any mortal sod who looks upon her supposedly goes barmy. Ssendam has also developed mental powers that let her crush minds and drive folks and - the better to promote chaos.
四位中的第二位是 熵之领主the Lord of Entropy 伊戈尔勒Ygorl。有人说他统治着混沌海（其程度到达了任何人对这一终极混乱位面能企及的控制程度），并实际创造了史拉蟾的 产卵石Spawning Stone。伊戈尔勒使用被烧焦的有翼史拉蟾骷髅形态，而他的巨大的巨镰能够穿透任何活物的血肉。他试图通过派遣大量史拉蟾到各位面到各色寄主中植入它们的卵，来延续这个种族。
The second of the four is Ygorl, the Lord of Entropy. Some say he rules Limbo (insofar as any basher can control the plane of ultimate disorder) and actually created the slaadi Spawning Stone. Ygorl takes the form of a charred, winged slaadi skeleton, and his great scythe can cut through any living flesh. He tries to perpetuate the race by sending masses of slaadi across the planes to plant their eggs in host bodies.
第三位领主是 “不可预知者”丘斯特Chourst the Unpredictable，这是一只20呎高的纯白色史拉蟾。他除了自己什么都不关心，他的行动随心所欲、时刻变化。与其祂领主相较，他更受冲动的支配。有些人觉得他是异想天开的化身。已完全疯癫了的他肆意地进行着随机的破坏——直到有其它玩意吸引他的注意力。
The third lord is Chourst the Unpredictable, a 20-fool-tall slaad of purest white. He cares for nothing but himself and takes whatever actions strike him from moment to moment. More than any other lord, Chourst is ruled by impulse. Some think he's whimsy incarnate. He's also totally insane and goes on rampages of random destruction - until something else catches his eye.
第四位领主是位名作 瑞因布Rennbuu 的史拉蟾艺术家，他是 色彩领主Lord of Colors。他留着一头令人震惊的白色鬣发，与他不断变幻色彩的鳞片形成了鲜明的对比。不过，对史拉蟾一族来说他仅仅是个讨厌鬼。据说通过改变一只史拉蟾的色调，他可以真正将这只生物变为不同品种的史拉蟾。就实际效果来说，瑞因布可以随其心意地对史拉蟾进行晋升和贬落。
The fourth of the bunch is an artistic slaad known as Rennbuu, Lord of Colors. He wears a mane of shockingly white hair that contrasts starkly with the ever-shifting colors of his scales, and he loves to change the colors of people and objects. To the slaadi, though, he's more than a nuisance. Its said that by changing the color of a slaad, Rennbuu can actually turn the creature into a different kind of slaad. In effect, Rennbuu grants promotions or demotions at his whim.

混沌领主Lords of Chaos
——四位伟大的史拉蟾神明降临到了多元宇宙中Four Great Slaad-gods descend on the Multiverse
史拉蟾最接近神祇的事物是自封的 史拉蟾领主the Slaad Lords。然而，这些领主既非神祇、也非半神，一如 深渊领主the Abyssal Lords 与 九狱诸领主the Lords of the Nine，他们是凭依自身力量的强大存在。
The closest things that the slaadi have to deities are the self-styled Slaad Lords. These lords are neither deity nor demigod but are, however, powerful beings in their own right, much like the Abyssal Lords and the Lords of the Nine.
作为 机械境Mechanus 僵硬秩序的对立镜像，混沌海Limbo 是一片无节制之混沌的位面。在这里，混乱碾压秩序，随机可能取代可预测性，自由篡权奴役了规则，个体战胜了整体。犹如混沌海的本质，史拉蟾是所有形式中混乱中立行为的例证。内在天性随心所欲的史拉蟾陶醉于不可预测的混沌之中。然而，对于弱小的史拉红蟾和蓝蟾而言，真正的自由并不存在，因为他们经常遭受着更强大史拉蟾的欺凌和奴役。真正的自由只为真正终极强大的个体存在。这在更强大的史拉绿蟾、灰蟾和亡蟾身上更为明显，正因他们的能力变强了，他们更能够将自己的意志强加在低级史拉蟾身上。当某只史拉蟾能更自由地实现自己而非其它家伙的希望时，它会将自己定义为一种更强大的的阶层。但只要一只史拉蟾还属于某个阶层，他就永远不是一个真正的个体。
As the mirror image to the rigid order of Mechanus, Limbo is a plane of unrestrained chaos. Here anarchy crushes law, randomness replaces predictability, freedom usurps enslavement to rules, and individuality triumphs over conformity. As natives of Limbo, the slaadi exemplify chaotic neutral behavior in all its forms. Inherently free, slaadi revel in unrestrained chaos. Real freedom does not exist, however, for the weaker red and blue slaadi, because they are constantly bullied and dominated by the stronger slaadi. True freedom exists solely for the ultimately powerful. This is more obvious with the mightier green, gray, and death slaadi, who are better able to impose their will on the lesser slaadi precisely because of their enhanced abilities. When any slaad can more freely accomplish what it wishes and not what others wish of it, that slaad defines itself as an individual to a greater degree. But no slaad could hope to become a true individual if it is part of a rank.
一些史拉亡蟾逃离了这个结构，驱使自己去探索混沌那他们希望将能授予自己独一无二身份、赋予自己不可思议能力的一面。在这调查研究（这是一段难以理解且极度危险的过程）期间，史拉亡蟾可以离开史拉蟾一致的阶级结构，变成一位史拉蟾领主——一种充满着力量与混沌意志、独一无二的存在。至于今日，只有四位史拉亡蟾已经实现了该状态。借由达到他们的新等级，史拉蟾领主们变成了自己特有混沌品质的具现，不会有两位史拉蟾领主分享一种类似的混沌表现形式。
To escape this structure, some death slaadi drive themselves to explore an aspect of chaos that they hope will grant them a unique identity and endow them with incredible abilities. During this time of investigation (a little understood and extremely perilous process), a death slaad may leave the ranks of slaad conformity to become a Slaad Lord—a unique being infused with power and chaotic purpose. To date, only four death slaadi have achieved this status. By ascending to their new level, Slaad Lords become the embodiment of their own particular brand of chaos, and no two Slaad Lords share a similar expression of chaos.
史拉蟾的寿命各不相同。莫名其妙、且相当神秘地，当一只史拉蟾到达一定的年龄时，它会本能地深入混沌海。个别处于这种状态的幸运个体将变成一种史拉蟾的更高级形态，但多数从未返回，大概被溶解为了本源精华与该位面的原始力量融合了。对史拉蟾领主而言可不会这样，他们的独特状态也赋予了他们长生不老。除非在战斗中被杀，他们不必担心自己被还原为他们的本质精华。因此，史拉蟾领主从不会奋战到死。事实上，据信还没有史拉蟾领主在与凡人的战斗中被弑——至少到目前为止如此。
The lifespan of the slaadi varies. Inexplicably and quite mysteriously, when a slaad has reached a certain age, it instinctively travels deep into Limbo. A lucky few advance in status to a higher form of slaad, but the majority never return and presumably dissolve into their base essences to merge with the primal forces of the plane. Not so for the Slaad Lords, whose unique status also grants them immortality. They need never worry about being reduced to their base essence unless slain in combat. For this reason, Slaad Lords never fight to the death. In fact, it is believed that no Slaad Lord has been slain in mortal combat—yet.
被杀的史拉蟾领主精华是否将重新组成其原始的亡蟾，甚或是回到任何形态，还存在争议。在战斗中被杀的低级和高级史拉蟾将被永久毁灭，但这可能不适用于史拉蟾领主的情况。在这片终极之可能性的位面，对 混沌领主the Lords of Chaos 们而言没有什么是不可能的。
Whether or not a slain Slaad Lord's essence can reform into its original death slaad self, or even return to any form at all, is debatable. Lesser and greater slaadi slain in combat are forever destroyed, but this may not be the case for the Slaad Lords. Perhaps nothing is impossible for the Lords of Chaos on the plane of ultimate possibility.
