[i]It is believed by many that the planet itself is an egg.[/i][/center]


The majority of the planet (Protogonos) is covered in massive mountains. Forged through centuries of sky fire hailing its surface. However within a large portion of water, surrounded but untouched by the stalagmites, sat a beautiful Eden. However it was home to savage monsters and primarily Dragons. But there were beings close to human, but one look at you could tell they weren't. They either resemble demons, or angels, and most resemble demons. Then there are some who are bipedal reptilians ranging from small and cute, to huge and scary. Though they might not entirely agree, and have prejudices against each other they all claim to be known as "Descendants". When they die some turn into what they call "Ascendants."

Their history is deep and vague. Not entirely known to even themselves. But they believe their souls are undying, either retaining form as a ever living being, or returning to the planet itself to nourish it. Some even talk of becoming everlasting weapons, or objects. But the most important part is that they can harness their soul's essence to do various manipulations and manifestations. Their belief may vary on who God is, some believe a being came to their world who was so powerful he created a wife from a dragon's heart and they are their children. The more reptilian (and dragon blooded) ones believe he didn't create a wife, he simply altered himself into a dragon to be with a dragon whom he loved. Resulting in the birth of more dragon like forms, and the other demonic or angelic looking beings are a off branch in the gene. But the resulting exceeding number of human looking descendants are from genocides and out breeding of their kind. The truth of the matter is this.

After the birth of the first descendant from the Seraphim being and his fashioned wife the war began. Whether the Dragon Lords felt threatened by the rising alien population or they felt the need to suppress and use the Seraphim and his power for their own gains. They unfortunately knew no other ways than force. This brought the flames of war to ablaze. The Seraphim liberated those under the Dragon Lords rule and interbred his offspring with their kind to form bonds and a deeper alliance. However his people remained almost entirely to themselves and within time grew to a sizable army of ten thousand soldiers all sharing the blood of the Seraphim. While the Dragon horde was staggeringly more than their numbers but despite this a campaign was rarely ever lost by the descendants and their freed dragon allies. Instead they battled only during certain times and situations making their victories powerful but not frequent. This was a long and destructive war with many descendants being enslaved across the lands. But the everlasting powers were harnessed by the Seraphim and his kin while the dragons relied on their bodies which broke and tore under the pure essence of the cosmic and dragon entities uniting before them. And so they lost.

After the war the descended took over the lands of the Dragons. Each area building from on top the rubble of the ancient dragon gods and forming their own lordships. By this time the population of the world was mostly descendant. Dragons did not often breed as they did and could not always compete within the lands of the fair and elegant descendants who thought most dragons and those who looked like dragons were revolting. Mostly dragons who shape shifted and or retained a fair form were successful in breeding with descendants but in doing so lost their dragon heritage. This is why in modern era most dragon descendants remain with others of their like, creating a minority group. The separation of descendants during the war and after resulted in the blood split of Descendants kind. It is known that the descendants bodies adapted through their fast breeding and high mortality rate. This coupled with their soul essence harnessing and manipulating nature around them. Creating descendants who could master all areas of terrain on the Edafos (Map/Land).

Despite the freedom given under the Seraphim's short rule once he departed for the heavens things changed. The modern era demographics are as such. There's slavery still in affect and many old world things still being done. The angelic people are the primary targets for kidnapping and selling. The demonic people are larger in number and the angelic traits are rare. This is due to the interbreeding of dragons with descendants long ago. Though Dragon looking people who are not entirely dragons are a minority they are still more common than angelic people. The safest places are areas that have been mapped in most maps on the land. Everything else is home to anyone living freely in the wilds but mostly bandit gangs and nomadic villages. The real danger are the dragons, marked with skulls on maps. Though Dragons are wise and more intelligent than ever before some, bitter from defeat, chose to breed only to create rebellious offspring. Those that live and eat freely as beasts. Many do not know if they are indeed mindless and stupid or entirely absorbed by the hunger for revenge on the Seraphim's descendants and all who share their blood. 

The powers that formed to rule the lands are numerous. Yet they form alliances that combine some of their power into one form. The Kingdoms and Factions are the seats of these world shaking forces. Though the measure of each could be speculated to differ, each and every descendant knows to respect or fear the leaders of any kingdom or faction. This divides the power but primarily it is given to the King and Queens of each Kingdom. They are the true gods of this world now and are not only worshiped willingly by their subjects but hold power that are to most insurmountable. The Factions work with kingdoms to remain from under the Kingdoms heels many would say. But the wise will tell you that it is just to keep the peace. As no faction desires to rule over people. Where does a faction's alliance lay? Look to their HQs and the closest kingdom to them are their promoters. The Merchant Guild is the only one that is entirely neutral with very little prospects beyond stable economy.

The Magoi and the Kingdom of Tearianaris formed an alliance. The combination of the spells the Magoi knew and the technology found, decoded and reconstructed by the Lassa formed what most of the world consider abominations of incredible power. Though the Lassa liked the name "Advanced Apparatus" a lot better. The "thing" was a suite of metal with a intelligence system. The lack of technology was made up for with reanimation spells. Meaning they used the flesh of dead dragons and kept the fresh blood of it going through to keep it pulsing with life. Then they linked the minds of the person inside the suite with the body. This was considered a very dangerous method. Many died testing these in various ways. It was not until the push in technology and funding found under the oceans by the Queen of Tearianaris Tydra Nept did they eventually get it right. Resulting in the few but powerful Advanced Apps created for the Queen and some of her chosen sentinels. The ways of which to create the advanced apps and other forms of technology were of interest to the engineers of the Kingdom of Fotia who too were wise in using industry to bolster their supplies. Using mostly their own designs and some of the knowledge gained to create war machines of their own. Not as capable as the Tearian's but more numerous are their machines in combat, cultivation, and industry.
