Long ago, the Creator existed with His Children.
They forged our world and the Planes.
They crafted us, blessed us, and gave us our gifts.
And then, one of Them turned against us.[/hr]

Gevoth – Nexus
Gosvern – Heaven | Ausul – Hell | Ma'at – Judgement | Zii – Spirit | Lein – Cosmos |
Nahlaas – Alive
Each of the Seven Realms had a purpose.
Gevoth, the Nexus from which all came.
Gosvern, the realm from which He would govern His creations
Ausul, where those that threatened his creations would be imprisoned
Ma'at, where His creations would be judged to determine which realm they would be sent to upon death.
Zii, the realm which He would craft the souls of the first creations and where He would allow them to prove themselves.
Lein, the realm wherein creation would one day grow and expand.
Nahlaas, the final Realm which would house all of His mortal creations.
Gosvern, the realm from which He would govern His creations
Ausul, where those that threatened his creations would be imprisoned
Ma'at, where His creations would be judged to determine which realm they would be sent to upon death.
Zii, the realm which He would craft the souls of the first creations and where He would allow them to prove themselves.
Lein, the realm wherein creation would one day grow and expand.
Nahlaas, the final Realm which would house all of His mortal creations.
But, nevertheless, the realm of Gosvern was a lonely one. And, as such, the Creator made seven children.
Prothos – The God of Foresight, Skies, Moon, Fires.
Althea – The Goddess of Wilds and Earth.
Ophelia – The Goddess of Sun, Muse and Medicine.
Pophis – The God of Seas and Storms.
Milatia – The Goddess of Love, Beauty, Marriage and Childbirth.
Lyra – The Goddess of Magic, Wisdom and Knowledge and twin of Crassius.
Crassius - The God of War, Valor and Great Beasts and twin of Lyra.
Althea – The Goddess of Wilds and Earth.
Ophelia – The Goddess of Sun, Muse and Medicine.
Pophis – The God of Seas and Storms.
Milatia – The Goddess of Love, Beauty, Marriage and Childbirth.
Lyra – The Goddess of Magic, Wisdom and Knowledge and twin of Crassius.
Crassius - The God of War, Valor and Great Beasts and twin of Lyra.
They started taking it slow, using up time to create the Realms and eventually focusing their time solely on Nahlaas. They began by forming the world from rock and bisecting the Realm with Lein, having the two Realms lie within one another. The first life forms they made were the microbial lifeforms, which in turn were followed by plants. From there, they created beasts and animals of the sea, land, and sky, which were shortly followed by sentient beings, namely humans. However, monsters soon emerged as results of the First Sins, wherein some humans allied with sealed, forbidden powers and were punished for their crimes.
Regardless, the Twins took a particular interest in the of humans, at times competing amongst one another and Their siblings to determine the fate of certain mortals. As a result, the Twins became the utmost worshipped gods in the pantheon. And the more They were worshipped, the stronger Their influence and power became.
But, in recent years, Crassius has become hungry and seeks to spread his influence to all of mankind, corrupting himself in the process as he bargained with monsters and beings from the Third Realm to follow him, but their combined presences allowed for the god to corrupt his purpose from merely expanding His influence to subjugating the Creator, forcing his father into a seal within Zii that could only be undone by living human hands.
Everything that followed has been lost to time, and the land of Tyr is now ruled by The High Command, the acolytes of The Dark God. Having spread his teaching across the land, the names of the Old Gods have been forgotten by most, but some still cling to old teachings. And those that do fight against the oppression of The High Command, knowing that one day the prophecy would come true and The Last Mage would return.
"How long has it been? Since We spoke? Since you listened? We know you have broken - your faith shattered and your hopes dashed. But, We know you have persevered. The Prophecy of One has come to pass as foretold, and The Last Mage now walks Nahlaas. But, The Dark God will not sit idly - this land is one of strife and suffering, and if you hope to defy his tyranny, you must fight. We are weak, but We created you. And amidst the darkness, the fire of your Soul, forged in the Aether of Zii, burns brights. Now rise, and defy."
Factions
"The High Command" - Led by The Acolytes of the Dark God, they posses the largest and most organized force on the face of Tyr. Each high ranking member of the The High Command, the Council of Six, oversee a region of Tyr, allowing The High Command as a whole to maintain a steady presence across all of the Tyr.
"The Wardens of Prothos"- Led by Grandmaster Oros, the Wardens began as rangers who were originally commissioned as mercenaries to defend faithful who were making pilgrimages. As such, the Wardens as most commonly found in forests and mountains and are well-known for their guerrilla tactics and skilled archers.
"The Stormraiders"- Led by Commodore Norris, the Stormraiders are seafaring vigilantes often mistaken for pirates. The Stormraiders do not have a set series of tenets or laws, but instead adhere to a mutual code that allows vessels to operate independently while under the command of the Commodore. This causes for distrust and conflict between the Stormraiders and the Templars.
"The Templars" - Led by Grand Commander Elias, the Templars are the remnants of the organized temple guardians and priests before the rise of Crassius. They live a fairly secluded and cloistered life, although they are often visibly present in regions that are not completely under the Dark God's thumb.
"The Ashen Legion" - Led by Grand Master Valerius, the Ashen Legion are the remnants of the Holy City of Typry. Currently encamped in Chistone Tower, they're a small group that operates under the banner of the Creator himself, worshiping all 'True' Gods equally while communing with Lyra through their Oracle.
"The Black Rose"- Led by High Elder Soliras, the Black Rose is a coalition of the last remaining free elves and halflings living in a series of hidden communities centered around the concealed Sepulcher of Ashes, which is the mass series of catacombs and shrines belonging to the victims of the first great elvish genocide during the early years of the Dark
God's conquest.
Humans - Being the first of the races to be created by The Old Gods, they are the most populous. Being somewhat of the 'standard' race, there doesn't seem to be much special about them. But when the soul of the first human was forged in Zii, they were given the Gift of 'Talent'. And while each individual human has a talent, accessing that talent is not always simple.
Dwarves - Forged in Zii alongside the Elves, Dwarves are a short and stocky race whose bodies some believe to be forged out of iron. They're a hearty lot, with a knack for building massive structures and forging the deadliest yet most beautiful of weapons. When the first Dwarf was forged, they were given the Gift of Iron - attributing to their naturally sturdy and resilient frames as well as their expert craftsmanship.
Elves - Forged in Zii alongside the Dwarves, Elves are a mythical race. Being hunted down and suffering a near extinction-level genocide at the hand of The High Command, as ordered by The Dark God, Elves are few and far between, with very few 'pure blood' Elves still living while most tend to be half-bloods. When the first Elf was forged, they were given the Gift of Arcane Knowledge, allowing them to utilize magic and other strange abilities.
Druids - Druids are the result of the Great Beasts, who rebelled against the Dark God only to be cursed down to Human form, mating with other races. Be it a Human, Dwarf or Elf, a Druid can come in any shape or form. What separates a Druid from their natural counterparts is their ability to, at least for a brief period of time, change shape into either humanoid or completely feral monsters. While Druids may be far more common to see than an Elf, they are not exactly a populous race. Most 'modern' Druids are solely the result of the 'curse', or Gift as some see it, being hereditary.
