History

On the planet Terra the past and the future have blurred. By night, Selena and Deya gleam in the sky and by day, Sollar illuminates the arid planet - laid to waste by the effects of the great Collapse.

The tales of the great catastrophe, The Collapse, have been passed down for generations, although the details have faded. Most of the elders speak of a time, six or seven thousand years ago, when people possessed unprecedented power over Nature with an ancient, now forgotten, witchcraft known as Science. They tell tales of when men could fly in the air, swim under water and even traveled to Selena, feats only the most rare magicians on Terra can still perform. The gods of ancient times grew angry and could no longer stand man's arrogance - and so came the Collapse - mankind's Science was turned against them and as a result 5 billion people perished. When the devastation subsided the few survivors huddled together, in isolated enclaves, dotted across the remains of the planet.

In time, however, the last of the humans ventured out again, only to discover that they were no longer alone. They found themselves sharing Terra with as many as 10 new races, all possessing Mind. Though the landscape and its inhabitants had changed, human nature remained the same, and soon people began to compete with the new species. Evolution took on a new form as the people modified and under went Modis.

People searched for resources, weapons and new forms of domination. They even researched the magicians' old ways of Science and began to learn how entire creatures could be grown from a drop of blood. The studied the clues of Domain or Kin Memory, to see how witchcraft influences people, to understand how a man who is a strong soldier, more than likely had a father or grandfather who was a great warrior as well.

So now, in 9,000 AD the humans try to rise again, not only taking the lessons from their dilapidated past, but also facing the challenges of the planet Terra and its newest inhabitants.
