The establishment of the grand city of Volstryggr marked the end of a lengthy and hard-fought campaign to negotiate peace among all known nations. It all began with the idealist Isaak Volstryggr, who spent his entire life advocating harmony and cooperation between all nations. His ideals included the founding of a large city where all races could live together and the many nations of the world could meet to discuss issues and concerns. His charisma, education, and strong determination made him popular with the common folk and later on the nobility. However, just as he was gaining international fame he was assassinated in his sleep while preaching in the kingdom of Crux-Redentor. Isaak's death is now known to be attributed to a fringe, criminal group but at the time it was a topic of fierce debate.

Isaak's dream of world peace would have ended there if not for his loyal followers and his daugther Elyssa, who is documented as having [i]"...the voice of an goddess incarnate."[/i] by several accounts. She is credited with forming her father's work and teachings into a formal, documented source in the book [i]"The Merits of Peace."[/i]. Despite the work of Elyssa and Isaak's followers, a great deal of wars and conflicts were seen before his dream would be finally realized. It was Isaak's grandson, Alexander, that established peace across all nations and founded the City of Volstryggr along with renowned Scientist Silas Verdine. The city of Volstryggr is currently the largest and most diversified metropolis on the entire continent of Alrathi. Peace is kept in the city by a well trained police-force along with autonomous suits of magical armor, called Sentinels, and their handlers. International Politics are handled primarily by a council of nations and headed by the current Volstrygrr descendant, given the title of [i]"Peace-Keeper"[/i]. located in the city. Despite two centuries of peace, there is still discrimination and inequality in the world. It seems not everyone wishes to live in harmony.

A vicious serial-killer simply known as the 'Blood Angel' has put fear into the hearts of Volstryggr's citizens with victims near 40 total and no apparent pattern to the killings. His name derives from his tendency to flay the skin on their back to make a pair of 'wings' and the images he draws in their blood. All Sentinel handlers are expected to give any information regarding his identity priority. The investigation into these murders is headed by Vey Katama, an expert tracker within the city's police force. While the murders themselves are tragic, what little evidence they have been able to gather points to something more sinister.

[hider=Dremorian Empire]
[h2][color=9e0b0f]𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚖𝚘𝚛𝚒𝚊𝚗 𝙴𝚖𝚙𝚒𝚛𝚎[/color][/h2]
Before forming into the military super-power that it is today, the now Dremorian Empire was nothing but a large group of city-states inhabited by the Dremorian people. Repeated invasions, and eventual conquest, by the more unified Kingdom of Anseria created a single, common enemy among the different factions. It wasn’t until 200 years later under the banner of Prince Valian, from the large city-state of Armos, that the Dremorian people unified and evicted their Anserian oppressors. After a series of vicious battles and defeats for the Anserian army, they were left with no choice but to recognise the new sovereign state. Valian was crowned king and the Dremorian Empire was born, and with it a military power the world has never seen before.

The current emperor of the Dremorian Empire, Lucius rules his country with an iron-fist and a ferocious tenacity. After the loss of the beloved Queen Reina, he has begun a slow descent into a spiral of ruthlessness and aggression. While many now call him the “Mad King”, Lucius remains incredibly clever and coherent. He is the primary individual responsible for the creation of Dremoria’s ‘super-soldier’ program and the current cause of rising tensions in Alrathi.

Desmond is the eldest son of Lucius and the current heir to the throne. He is also their best general with a tactical mind rivaling his father’s. His mind is not his only strength. Desmond is the first successful case to come out of the super-soldier program, earning him the moniker ‘Subject Zero’. The process, however, negatively affected his ability to feel empathy for others and has grown increasingly distant from his emotions and people.

The second Dremorian Prince, Dante is a reckless individual and near polar opposite of his elder brother. He loves to envelop himself in all the pleasures of life, which often mean women and alcohol. He does not however partake in either when he is on duty as commander of his unit. As a second-generation super soldier, he was spared the horrors many of the first generation went through. His personality is far more aggressive than his brother’s. Dante is perhaps the best warrior in Dremoria, but his temper can often lead to his downfall.

Dremoria’s capital city and the most well-defended fortress in the entire empire. The buildings are mostly made of a highly resilient, flameproof, black stone mined from a nearby mountain. Armos possesses a huge cultural significance to the Dremorian people that non-Dremorians, even slaves, can not enter inside its walls.

[*][b][color=9e0b0f]𝙳𝚊𝚛𝚔𝚞𝚜[/color][/b]
The suspected birthplace of Dremoria’s super soldiers, most of the military research and production occurs within this city. Weapon dealers also sell their wares here in a large market known as the ‘War Bazaar’. This city contains the second largest concentration of military forces and is under the vigilance of lord-governor Silas Verdine. Rival kingdoms have sent agents to steal secrets but none have ever returned.

This city is an enigma among the Dremorian major cities for many reasons. The city is the only one with a large port and was the last city to be annexed into the empire. Non-Dremorians experience the greatest amount of freedom in this location and thus has the greatest population of non-Dremorians living there with the percentage being 40% other. Lord-governor Encel Armenis is the figure-head in charge of this city, but there are rumors that an underground organization calls the real shots. A number of different houses vie for political power and favor here with the lord-governor being at the top of this game.

The heart of Dremoria’s industrial power, Arkon’s primary purpose is to produce commercial goods for the entire empire and basic military equipment. Arkon’s lord-governor Aziel Drakspire ensures a constant flow of materials in and out of the city.

Zerith is the primary location for Dremorians wishing to pay pilgrimage to the gods. A gigantic temple at the center of the city is dedicated solely to the goddess of war. The lord-governor of Zerith, Dygus Pyranus, is often called a ‘warrior priest’ for his dedication to the goddess and his affinity for combat.

The population of Vangles is the highest among the major cities of the Dremorian Empire and is also the largest producer of food. A significant number of orphan children from this city go missing every year without even a word being mentioned. It is unclear whether or not the lord-governor of the city, Towa Cesadine, has any connection to the disappearances.

[/color]Once a large nomadic tribe, the winged Anserian people would make temporary camps in an area then proceed to abandon them completely. That was until they stumbled across a magical anomaly that caused large portions of landmass to float in the sky. This was also around the time that a deadly plague afflicted a large portion of their population. The present day capital of Aion was settled on the largest island, called Salvore, while those infected were forced into settlements below in the shadow of these majestic islands. Portals were constructed very recently in its history coinciding with the founding of Volstrggyr to allow non-flying visitors to the once inaccessible islands.

Dacire became a king when he was only in his teenage years. He has made many mistakes on his journey but has grown extremely wise and understanding in his later years. Unlike the majority of Anserian nobility, he does hold the same superior attitude towards those of others races. The Kingdom has undergone through many advancements in both science and magic under his guidance. His diligence is the reason why the Dremorian Empire's recent aggression has not gone unchecked.

The queen is generally loved by the many citizens of Anseria. While her husband is in charge of the nation, she handles the majority of internal affairs including politics between noble houses. It often comes as a surprise to foreign ambassadors but Astrana is the superior warrior of the two rulers. Before becoming queen, she was considered a prodigy in magic and the ways of the sword.

The heir to the Anserian throne, he inherited his mother’s guile and his father’s humility. As heir, he is the head of all military forces and is often sent on missions of diplomacy to other nations.

Fenris is regarded as the best user of healing magic in the entire kingdom, and likely the whole world.

The only daughter of Queen Astrana and King Dacire, she is far more ambitious that either of her two brothers. Soleil wants nothing more than to travel the world and have crazy adventures. This nature of hers has gotten her in trouble multiple times with both her parents and the city guard.  She has trained herself with the spear and has taken many lessons from a martial arts master at her request. There are many who say that Soleil takes a lot after her mother.

The first city ever settled on the largest landmass of the floating isles, its history is as old as the kingdom of Anserith itself. It is often called ‘The Golden City’ by outsiders due to the prevalence of gold and white stone in the construction of its buildings. All of Anserith’s nobility reside within this city and as well as the majority of the wealthier portion of its citizens. Anserians pride themselves in the fact that Aion has, to this day, never been ransacked by foreign armies. 
[*][color=gray][b]𝙽𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚛𝚊[/b][/color]
Neverra was initially founded in direct opposition to the founders of Aion, who were responsible for the exile of many Anserians during the time. Military tactics were greatly improved upon by the Neverran Anserians, as proved in the first and only civil war ever to occur in Anserian’s history. The reigning monarchy in Aion was deposed and replaced with an Neverran ruler, a line which to this day remains unbroken. Neverra today holds the largest military base in Anseria and is where all of their officers are now trained.

The third largest island in the kingdom of Anserith, it is here that the famed Astaris Library is located. Evernal was the last of the Anserian major cities to be founded due to it being previously host to a large number of flying monster hives. It has quickly become the center of research and education in the kingdom, with the largest university located near the Astaris Library. 
[*][color=gray][b]𝚅𝚎𝚛𝚘𝚞𝚐𝚎[/b][/color]
Verouge serves more as a resort city than anything else. The portals located in the city of Cherim below link to portals here. It nearly rivals the splendour of Aion and provides many services to entertain both citizens and tourists alike. The most famous location in Verouge is the ‘Grand Skyview Auditorium’, a mostly glass structure veering off the edge of the island. The resort theme of the city has led it to becoming a large, growing center of culture in Anseria and nearby kingdoms. 
[*][color=gray][b]𝙲𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚖[/b][/color]
The largest Anserian city on the surface, it is heavily fortified and operates as the main trading hub for Anseria. It is also the only city where non-Anserians can own property. Due to it not being limited in expansion, the city has grown exponentially and is the second most populated city in Anseria. Located in the central plaza are portals to Verouge, a resort city located on one of the floating isles above.

It is perhaps the most unique city in terms of the geography of the island it resides on. In the center of the island lies a very tall mountain, something not present on the other islands. Seris was built up all along the bottom of the mountain, where the only flowing river on the isles comes from. The majesty of the mountain led Anserian’s religous elements to establish their headquarters here, with a large sanctuary located near the mountain’s peak. Many Anserians make a pilgrimage up the mountain to visit this sanctuary, doing so without the use of their wings.

Roughann lies on the edge of what is considered the ‘Civilized lands’, nothing but beasts, monsters, and lost civilizations lie beyond their territory. Life is not easy in this fringe kingdom, but those that tough through will find a place in it. The people are governed by a council of chiefs, who in turn elect a head chief to rule over all in times of need. That means that each settlement is pretty much independent of each other and often clash in contests of strength.

Frequently referred to as ‘The Hub’ by locals, Charal is the first city most will go through upon entering Roughann. It was the first city settled on the edge of the ‘Civilized Land’ and consequently is the largest settlement in the region. The most prominent feature of the city is a large open market used by the other tribes for exchanging resources. Due to its size and favourable location, it is seen as the non-official capital of Rougann. Charal maintains a strict policy of neutrality in inter-tribal conflict and is often called upon to mediate negotiations. This had led to a lot of Head Chiefs being elected from Charal.

Seland is the last sizable settlement on the fringe, the city resembling more of a fortress than an actual town. Monsters attacks are a normal occurrence which has led the populace to be hardened and adaptable. Every man and woman of age must be able to fight without exception. The abundance of monsters in the vicinity has led Seland to host their own lodge of monster hunters. The greatest, if not best, warriors of Roughann will likely claim Seland as their home.

Kalthorn is famous all across the kingdoms for the large, complex dungeon at the heart of the city. The entrance to the dungeon lies within a large palace, the building which the first settlers discovered lost in an unexplored forest. The interior of the palace was completely devoid of any and all valuables, furnitures, and decoations leaving only a large pair of metal doors in its lower level. The palace has since become a hub for those wishing to find treasures in the dungeon, of which there are plenty along with equal amounts of danger.

Armintium is the homeland of all humans throughout the world, meaning that all can trace their heritage back to this old kingdom.  It is a country very set on maintaining their traditions and culture, it is perhaps one of the oldest standing civilizations in the world. Their continued prosperity is thanks to their creation of the paladin-class warrior. Originally their purpose was to simply uphold justice and the laws of the land but as religion began to take hold, they took on the roles of defenders of the faith. A schism occurred later in their history that split the once single order into multiple, one for each god and goddess.

The current capital of Armintium, the previous being destroyed many centuries ago. A great fortress rests just outside the city’s walls called the “Citadel Cathedral” and is the first home of the paladins. Every year a great festival and tournament is held to honor the paladins that have fallen and those who are about to take up the sword in their place. The city has never stopped expanding and is currently the largest human settlement in the world. It is one of the only kingdoms that does not revere one particular god or goddess above the others due to its factions of paladins. Because of Crusar’s importance to the paladin order, nearly all the various sects are in constant competition for the King and people’s favor.

Vermoines is located on the largest river on the continent, a large bridge joins the two sections of the city. Due to its key economical position, a very large amount of trading is done here.

The farm fields around Lustere have been described as a “sea of golden waves that glisten in the sun”. A series of small river around the city deposits nutrient-rich into the ground, making the land extremely fertile for growing wheat and other crops. It was first settled due to the discovery of a mineral-rich cave system nearby, thus giving its name, but the citizens moved more to farming after discovering how fertile the soil was. The end of the harvest seasons is marked with a festival called the ‘Bread Bowl’ in which many forms of famous Lustere bread is freely available for eating. Of course the ideal conditions for wheat has lead to a fine variety of beers as well.

Salern is also referred to as ‘The heart of the Swamp’ by its inhabitants and is perhaps the greatest display of Ravseni ingenuity. The entire city floats above the water around a enormous tree that extends several hundred feet into the air. The citizen of Scarne believe that the tree’s roots extend all the way into the underworld, where the goddess Malaya reigns. It is for this reason that deceased Ravseni have their funerals here, hoping to travel along the roots safely to the underworld.

[h2][u]Humans[/u][/h2]
The most numerous species across the world, Humans are quite varied among the many kingdoms in which they reside. They do not possess any physical qualities of note but they do possess incredible magic potential and creativity. They are the only species that can cast call aspects of magic, making their mages incredibly versatile.

[h2][u]Draeni[/u][/h2]
These humanoids possess an incredible resilience to pain, able to shake off the most punishing of blows. Their typical features include some shade of gray skin, black eyes except for a colored iris, black horns, and a pair of black fangs on their bottom and top lines of teeth. Draeni express very little through physical expressions in public, requiring a trained eye to pick up on the nuanced movements they do make. That being said, this makes Draeni very good at reading the expressions of others but struggle to recognize sarcasm and suggestive tones. They face a harsh prejudice however due to their similarity to demons. It does not help their case that they are naturally proficient in dark and body magic while being unable to cast light magic. Extremely bright flashes of light can leave Dranei blinded for longer periods than others

A very broad term for a wide assortment of races, it was first coined by a Elven scholar  to described the seemingly human species with animal-like traits. The homeland of the Amali was once the vast forest known as the Evergrove, since taken over by the Dremorian Empire.. Amali typically live in large travelling tribes, normally made out of similar Amali. Most Amali also possess the ability to turn into a large version of the animal they share qualities with. The types of magic available to them depends on the kind of Amali they are.

[h2][u]Anserian[/u][/h2]
Anserians are a prideful race with large, typically white, feathered wings with a superior stance towards other races. Their culture revolves around a strict hierarchy of social classes. It is only thanks to the current king of Anseria that this commonly held attitude has started to shift. Blonde hair and blue eyes are very common and desired traits with the kingdom of Anserith. They are masters of the sky and excellent at healing and wind magic while being unable to cast dark and illusion magic.

[h2][u]Dremorians[/u][/h2]
A race of hardened warriors, everything in Dremoria revolves around one’s strength and prowess in combat. They possess a pair of large, almost always black, featherly wings with a long, leathery tail with a spade-like end. They also have a pair of horns that grow from above their temples . Their ability to fly makes them one of the largest threats to the Kingdom of Anserith. Dremorians revere flying almost as much as they revere the gods, having many traditions centered around the act. Unlike Anserians, They have the natural ability to hide their wings magically. Dremorians have a very high, internal body temperature and are able to withstand intense heat and cold alike. The heat that radiates from their body can be felt by those close enough and one can eventually even read their emotions by the rise and drop in the surrounding temperature. They have a naturally affinity for fire and dark magic but are unable to cast any kind of healing magic. As a compensation, they have developed a much faster regenerative system.

[h2][u]High Elf[/u][/h2]
A race of long-living intellectuals, High-Elf society is isolated from the rest of the known world. They are very protective of their traditions and technology from outsiders. They have less raw strength and endurance than other races but make up for it with increased dexterity, agility, and magical prowess. A low birth-rate means that while they live quite long, they are few in number. Vampires, Dark Elves, and Light Elves can trace their origin to this race.

[h2][u]Dark Elf[/u][/h2]
Once High Elves, Dark Elves have abandoned the strict traditions of their ancestors in favor of pursuing their passions They were once hunted by their ancestors and began to operate in the night as a result. Overtime their natural skin color changed to a grey to adapt to the low light. Now they are no longer persecuted but still retain their preference for nighttime living.

[h2][u]Light Elf[/u][/h2]
Light elves were once a sect of High Elves that retreated into a massive system of caves in a search for enlightenment. The combination of constant devotion and darkness led them to develop bio-luminescent pale skin, giving them an otherworldly appearance. They are even more reclusive the their High Elf ancestors so seeing a Light Elf outside of their home is extremely rare.

[h2][u]Giant[/u][/h2]
A race of very tall humanoids, records suggest they were once much taller than the 9 meter height they are now. They normally possess light bluish skin and live at higher elevations such as far in the mountains. Their ‘cities’ consist of one, continuous mass structure that all of the inhabitants live together. Their children are typically raised by both the parents and the elders of the settlement.

[h2][u]Dragon[/u][/h2]
The most ancient race that is alive today, Dragons are perhaps the strongest sentient beings in the world.  They are often confused with their lesser cousins, wyverns, who are simply wild beasts. A true dragon boasts incredible toughness, speed, and magical ability. Dragons are typically divided into categories by the kind of magic they can perform. Most dragons can only perform one type of magic, unless they are hybrids, but it is always beyond what other races can do.  Their physiology allows them to live for millenia which makes the oldest of their kind extremely wise. They do not produce a lot of offspring and often remain isolated from civilized areas, making it difficult to ever find one.

[h2][u]Draconian[/u][/h2]
They share many physical features with dragons, all except for their wings, but on a smaller scale. Early Draconians first lived in deep cave systems, feeding off of mushrooms and creatures that roamed the underground. While Draconians have the ability to live for nearly two centuries, they  do not possess the vitality of a Dragon.

[h2][u]Vampire[/u][/h2]
Contrary to popular belief, It is impossible to become a vampire through infection. Vampires are actually a cousin to elves who do not consume anything but blood to sustain their bodies allowing them to effectively live forever. Most Vampires are incredibly wealthy from an accumulation of years of experience. They use this wealth to purchase blood from willing donors, alleviating much of the stigma against them. In fact, a whole market has been created for those willing to sell their blood as Vampires are willing to pay very well. They are masters of psychic and dark magic. Unlike the myth, The Sun will not damage a vampire but it does irritate them. That is why most vampires will cover up a majority of their bodies if going outside during the day. The most powerful of their kind convene at a semi-annual summit to discuss matters of the world and gain influence with other vampires. The are originally from the elven homeland in the Isle of the Lost but have since been exiled. Their affinity with blood has allowed them to read the emotions, thoughts, and even memories of the person's blood they ingest.

[h2][u]Aetheri[/u][/h2]
Also known as faeries, they are small, winged humanoids that can make themselves larger for short periods of time. They are energetic and fast thinkers, often speaking faster than most people can understand. Their lack of physical strength is compensated by their highly potent magic. Each Aetheri is born attuned to a certain element but there are rare instances of Aetheri being born attuned to multiple elements. Typically living from 500 to roughly 700 years, they can have a wealth of wisdom despite their youthful appearances. 

[h2][u]Dwarves[/u][/h2]
A race of stocky, strong, and often stubborn individuals with an appearance similar to humans. They are natural engineers and deep earth miners. They are the only race who completely lack magic, but they make up for it with an incredible resistance to all magical attacks. They have built some of the greatest and most advanced contraptions known throughout the world.

[h2][u]Orcs[/u][/h2]
Orcish legends state they were born of fire and mud. Their society is split amongst many different clans who owe loyalty to a single king. Honor is highly valued amongst the clans despite their brutish nature. Elegance is another matter entirely, as Orcs only care if the object will last and is functional. Contrary to other races, Orcs actually grow much stronger in the later parts of their life. It is very rare for Orcish mages to be able to perform more complex and intricate spells. The have the ability to enter a bloodlust in battle, which allows them to take massive amount of damage and keep fighting. They lose much of their reasoning skills and will often pass out when the bloodlust is over. What little magic expertise they posses lies in fire and earth magics, with more disciplined magics beyond their reach.

[h2][u]Ravseni[/u][/h2]
A reptilian race with the natural ability to camouflage, they possess the shortest lifespan of all the races at an average of 55 years. They are quick to mature however and can adapt very quickly to any environment. Ravseni society divides its individuals into four categories: warriors, shamans, craftsmen, and chiefs. Warriors are much larger than other Ravseni and in charge of hunting, keeping the peace, and defending the others. Shamans are magic casters in the Ravseni and also serve as spiritual guides. Craftsmen are the largest category including everything from merchants to farmers to weaponsmiths. Chiefs are those who possess qualities from each of the other three other kinds of Ravseni. Ravseni are masters of water and illusion magic, often using it to ambush much larger armies and prey.

[h2][u]Anubis[/u][/h2]
A nomadic people living in the desert area referred to as the “Wasteland", they are humanoids with a dog-like features. They mostly keep to themselves but will often help lost explorers or travelers that end up in their land.

[h2][u]Veidish[/u][/h2]
Veidish are perhaps the most abnormal of the races. They are not humanoid in appearance and resemble a collection of vines and branches arranged in random orientations. Meetings with Veidish have revealed that they possess a very childish intellect. Little is known about their origins and where they come from. The beliefs and traditions displayed by the Veidish are often bizarre to the other races. 

[h2][u]Etherals[/u][/h2]
A loose term to refer to the wide host of sentient spirits that inhabit the land. Their appearance is as diverse as their personalities, meaning they are as likely to help as to harm. If a individual gains the trust and favor of an ethereal, the spirit may bond to them as a familiar.

[hider=Magic]
Magic is present in nearly every corner of the world and is mainly utilized as weapon in the many battles waging across the continent. Mages are individuals who have dedicated most of their life to studying magic and have learned to use it to its greatest potential. Casting a spell involves a incantation followed by the spell's assigned name. Doing so require the mage to imbue the words with magic power and project their will within them. This process is what creates the most impressive and dangerous of magic casting. Cantrips are lesser spells that require only the given name and can be used by non-mages. Experienced mages can manipulate the raw elements of magic to perform minor tricks such as lighting a fire place or making small objects float. While magic is highly potent and dependent on the user, there do exist a few established schools of magic. These include:

[h3]Elemental Magic:[/h3] Control of the elements and its properties. This is the earliest and most researched school of magic. The magical elements are fire, water, earth, wind, light, and dark. Mastery of all elements is nearly impossible for all but the human race and even then most die for achieving it.

[h3]Manipulation:[/h3] Illusions and alterations. This magic was first introduced by the Amali people who used it to spy upon other kingdoms. It has the ability to physically change a person or object for a period of time as well as warp a person's perceptions. It is typically of assassins to train in this kind of magic.

[h3]Runic Writing/Magic Engineering:[/h3] This is the magical art of inscribing magical power into inanimate objects. It is often also called Magic Engineering due to the fact that any and all construction of magical items, structures, and devices are based on the fundamental principles of this school.

[h3]Arcano Nevo:[/h3] Almost as old as the Elemental school of magic, this school  is only about negating the effects of the other schools. Here is where mages learn to protect themselves with magical barriers and spells that can stop or reverse certain spells.

[h3]Conjuration:[/h3] Often listed as the 'black school', Conjuration involves the summoning and enhancement of magic spirits or creatures to do the bidding of its user. Necromancy is sub-category of this school for which it earned its current nickname. Any students of this school must undergo intense training by the paladin order before they can become a full-fledged mage.

[hider=Legends]
[h3][u]The One (Gaia Golem)[/u][/h3]
A being said to have come to life upon the creation of the world. It roamed the planet for millennia forming the oceans and land, seeding life everywhere it stepped. Legends then state it sat down against a cliffside to watch the world it created. A popular tale among children is the story of a young girl who gets lost in the woods and finds the lone golem. The immobilized golem teaches the girl how to survive on her own, and eventually she decides to take care of the Gaia Golem.

[h3][u]The Lich King[/u][/h3]
A once mighty mage-king that feared his own death and the destruction of his legacy. He employed the top magical minds in the kingdom to develop a ritual to keep him alive forever. The ritual succeeded but it did not stop his body from deteriorating. A madness fell upon the king as he turned to necromancy and demonic powers to keep his appearance youthful. Eventually, these dark forces twisted his mind and he unleashed an army of undead across the world. It was only thanks to a valiant group of heroes that he was defeated. 

[h3][u]Holy Dragon Dromon[/u][/h3]
It was once widely believed that Dromon flew across the land protecting the world from otherworldly threats. Time has turned this into a mere fairy tale despite the occasional reporting of a sighting, usually by a town drunk. A small number of Draconians still believe Dromon roams Alskyra protecting them and have even started worshiping him as another god.  

[h3][u]The Three Messegners[/u][/h3]
Vaguely mention in a prophecy about the Lich King's return, It states that three beings of incredible power will awaken to prepare the world and help fight against the coming darkness. No other information exists.

[h3][u]Endohi[/u][/h3]
A leviathan creature stated to mark the end of the world. Untold destruction of the world will occur should it awaken from its slumber somewhere deep beneath the ocean. After it consumes all life, it is said that the Gaia Golem will once again rise again to reform the world.

[u][h3]The Architects[/h3][/u]
A mysterious and highly advanced civilization that existed before current written history. What little is known about them has been found out through the study of the apparent ruins they have left behind. These 'Dungeons' are incredibly dangerous to even the best warriors, and as such highly regulated. The only text referencing them directly, found in the Astaris Library, states that they vanished shortly after a brutal war with a being referred to as the "Lich-King".

[u][h3]The Sanctuary[/h3][/u]
To this date, the place simply known as the "Sanctuary" has never been found despite multiple accounts of its existence. It is believed that those who are worthy and find themselves in dire need, will suddenly find themselves in front of a massive castle that defies all explanation. The master of this castle is a strange, powerful, and human-looking man with a host of autonomous suits of armor identical to the ones that protect Volstryggr. After leaving said place, they are left with no recollection of its location and a distorted sense of time.  

[/hider]
[hider=Organizations]
[h3]Fiends[/h3]
The official name for the Dremorian Empire’s super-soldiers, they are without a doubt stronger than normal soldiers in about every way except numbers. They heal faster, strike harder, and move quicker. They are the biggest threat to Anserith’s air superiority and could destroy Aion in as little as an hour should they reach it. Opposing forces have recently discovered that psychic magic is very effective against them, for reasons yet unknown.

[h3]Seraphs[/h3]
Anserith’s most elite soldiers, they are one of the most disciplined forces in the world and serve as the royal guard. It is often said that a Seraph is worth ten normal Anserian soldiers. 

[h3]Shadow-ban[/h3]
A criminal syndicate that has operations across the entire continent. Any competition is violently shut-down. Their influence has control of several government officials across the kingdoms.

[h3]The Paladin Order[/h3]
A once purely human force, the Paladin Order has accepted many other races into the fold. It is made up of several different minor factions dedicated to a specific god/goddess. There is still a faction that gives equal devotion to the pantheon but they are the smallest and least powerful group.

[h3]The League[/h3]
The only criminal organization that can match the Shadow-ban, The League fills its ranks with some of the most deadly assassins in the world. It is not uncommon for The League to abduct children that show promise and manipulate them into killing machines. A majority of high-profile murders can be traced back to this group.

[h3]The Black Wind[/h3]
A ruthless and secretive cult of necromancers, these individuals carry out the illegal research and practice of necromancy. They seek power through this forbidden magic and are not afraid to do whatever it takes to ensure they have proper specimens to experiment on. Their new leader has also instilled worship of the ancient Lich-King into his followers and they seek a way to resurrect the infamous king of the undead.

[hider=Important Artifacts/Mythical Items]
[h3]Elixir of Life[/h3]
An incredibly difficult and expensive concoction to produce, historical records indicate only it has only been made successfully four times since the first written records. Standard effects of drinking the potion include curing all ailments, diseases, and injuries of the consumer and revival of an individual that has perished within the last hour. There are additional effects dependent on the race that drinks it. Currently, production of the Elixir of Life banned throughout every nation due to the catastrophic result that comes from botched attempts. If the exact measurements and procedures are not met in the later stages of the process, the ingredients will set off a devastating explosion killing all living creatures within a certain radius dependent on how far into the process the individual has gone. 

[h3]Stafff of Guidance[/h3]
A remarkable artifact once wielded by the great Isaak Volstryggr, it has remained sealed inside secure vault underneath the Volstryggr compound. Wielding this delicate and dangerous object takes a incredible deal of mental discipline and those weak-willed will find themselves going mad for the duration they possess it. The staff creates multiple personas of the host inside their mind, like hearing 'voices', giving them direction to the goal they currently seek in their mind. However, if there are multiple goals they are seeking within their active thoughts it clouds and muddles the message, often overloading the host's brain. A few seconds of enduring this condition will leave the user with an incredible migraine that will subside over a couple day. A few minutes and temporary psychosis will envelop the user along with temporary short-term memory loss. More than an hour and the user risks permanent memory loss and other irreversible mental conditions. It is recommended that, if it should be used, guidance only on simple, single, and short-term goals be tried. The more complex and longer-term the goal is, the more the user risks permanent mental scarring and personality detachment.

[hider=Sentinels]
Autonomous suits of magically enriched armor containing an artificially created soul upon their creation, employed during the founding of the city of Volstryggr. At the center of each Sentinel resides the Magnus Core, a metallic sphere of highly concentrated magical energy that is their source of life and power. Each Sentinel's core is encoded with four key parameters that guide their actions: safety of the Volstryggr family, safety of their handler, safety of the citizens of Volstryggr, and lastly the safety of the city itself. The only two instances of a Sentinel going rogue was due to their handler being captured by criminal elements and the other was extensive damage to their shell and core.

Developed by the late Scientist [ ], the process to create both the sentinel's armor shell and the Magnus core was lost after his death. The current count of Sentinels operational in the city is just under 100. Handlers are chosen directly by the Sentinel regardless of age, although can sometimes come into play. Each Sentinel is host to a wealth of information that is available upon request and have an innate map of the entire city of Volstryggr. Once a Sentinel chooses a handler, an invisible bond is created between the two. This bond effectively allows the Sentinel to know the location of their handler at all times. In times of need, a handler may wear the Sentinel as a living piece of armor. While in that state, extreme strain is placed upon the handler but the benefit is a extreme boost to power beyond what they could do alone.
