Aremus
Era of Embera
Ever since the deities formed the world in millennia past, the races of the world have been at war. Humans, Elves, Drakar, Orcus, Tigris and Ulaymen have fought for supremacy, honour, valour, resources and because of allegiances for longer than anyone can remember. Even in the world's modern era, skirmishes and raids continue unabated. Magical and mundane creatures continue to stalk the world outside of the main cities, preying on weaker towns and farms throughout the land, and threatening unprepared travellers.
All this chaos has created opportunities for many dangerous people and creatures to attempt to make their mark on the world. Dragons on the hunt for magical artefacts, necromancers searching for the source of eternal life, upstart dictators attempting local or world domination, and even extra-planar threats lurking in the shadows for their time to rise. While the factions of the world seem to be united in their attempts to decrease hostilities, one spark is all it could take to turn the multi-faction cold war hot.
Have the gods abandoned the world, or is something more sinister at play? Will the world come crashing down from the multitude of threats, or can the world manage to survive? Can the factions maintain there unsteady, somewhat ineffectual peace, or will a far more deadly second world war break out?
