In the first age the gods created the world, the plants, the animals, and man.
In the second age the heavens split as those wanting a new start sought to undo what they had created. Fire and war raged as man and it's creators battled for the fate of life itself. In this chaos new creatures where made and shaped by both sides.
In the third age man had won its right to live, and the gods who had fought to save them, now called the Preservers, left their children to live in the world created for them without their meddling. The bodies of the fallen gods were left where they lied.
In the fourth age animals and heretics alike feasted on corpses of their creators. Most died outright, but those who survived were forever changed for the worse. Savage and cruel these cursed wrenches rampaged, devastating the land and the bastions of the children of the gods.
In the fifth age man sits dying in crumbling city-states desperately holding onto the life their makers gave them, some praying for their return, others resenting them for deserting them, and some believing that this was their true plan all along.
Alright enough lore, time for specifics. This is a grim world were the survival of decent life itself is threatened, so while I say this in every RP no God like characters! (they all left) technology in the second age was medieval, now it's more modern but think more in a final fantasy 7 sense. Modern firearms and technology with some future twists, also swords and more ancient weapons aren't out of the equation. Most of the flashier stuff was lost as cities and empires crumbled.
I need to see interest but I also want to see what kind of characters you had in mind! A daring general/leader of a besieged city-state? A soldier fighting just to keep himself and his family alive? A priest looking for answers in a world gone mad? A creation of the fallen gods uncertain of its place in the world? Or maybe just a regular Joe or Jane trying to put supper on the table. All are accepted I want to see what you guys want to make! Feel free to create locations, species, countries, etc.
Post here your interest and a character concept (not a full sheet that comes later)
If you have any questions ask here or PM me.
