m (→‎Known oceans: After Keeper discussion, we've decided to remove the mention of "Sea of Night" name and move it to Trivia on Midnight Sea,as the phrase "Sea of Night" never appears in the book)
Few [[worldhopper]]s visit Lumar, although enough that stories of "visitors from the stars" have began to spread across the planet.{{book ref|tress|22}} Those outsiders are often referred to as wizards or sorcerers, with their advanced technology being considered magical in and of itself. Tablets from [[Nalthis]] can be purchased and used for basic needs such as writing out text; however, it appears that the Lumarans are never actually taught the details of how the technology works.{{book ref|tress|15}} Some [[Scadrian]] influences have also made their way to the planet, with death being said to have nails in his eyes -- presumably referring to [[Marsh]].{{book ref|tress|53}}{{book ref|mb7|part=ars}}
 
Notable outsiders to make their home on Lumar include the Sorceress, or [[RiinaSorceress]], an [[Elantrian]] who took control of the Midnight Sea, and [[Xisis]], a [[dragon (cosmere)|dragon]] who studies the aethers at the bottom of the Crimson Sea and trades wishes for local servants. Those two have integrated into the planet's culture well enough that they are not recognized as extraterrestrials.{{book ref|tress|31}}{{book ref|tress|64}}
 
Unlike [[First of the Sun]], there does not appear to be any major interstellar nation vying for control over Lumar; it's unknown if this is due to the deadly ecosystem, or the planet's relative unimportance on the galactic scene.
