Perdus
Realm of Wastes
Introduction
Origin of Humanity, Ancestral Home of the First Men, and the most destructive event in all of history. Perdus, also known as Allhulm to the First Men's ancestors, is an irradiated wasteland devoid of life. What remains is a history of an expansive realm under the singular rule of a cosmos-spanning empire. Though Humanity may seem like a plague across the cosmos, they are but pests compared to the forces they once commanded. Luckily for the Cosmos, Humanity has forgotten their true potential and their past.
Geography
It is hard to tell what was once ocean and what was once land. The water has evaporated, the land has been shattered, and the cities were scattered across the realm. There are craters the size of islands and unnatural mountains that reach the heavens. But the most devestated region, said to once be the capital city, is the Glowing Wastes. The last location the Ahnilus was seen.
Atmospheric Conditions
The atmosphere has been broken, the air cracks with the power of Glow unbound by the laws of nature. Air is present but one cannot breathe it in.
Sophonts
Only the Origins remain, phantasms of lives that once ruled the realm. They have been trapped between life, death, and something else. They repeat the last seconds of their lives in chaotic fashion, but only once every hundred years.
Flora
None remain.
Fauna
None remain.
Energy Sources
Glow has been broken here, it no longer works as it should. Primal Light and Decay have merged into one, Primal Waste. This new energy seeks only to consume, destroy, and expand.
Technology
None remains after Ahnilus.
