The World of Asannova The fantasy world of Asannova, a realm of medieval and dark fantasy. Home to a diverse range of beings, from humans and elves to angels and demons, magic flows through the land in many forms. The world is currently in a fragile peace, fifty years after the Great Sundering War, a brutal conflict that reshaped kingdoms and left deep scars. The Aftermath of War The war fractured the world, pitting races against each other. In its aftermath, the races divided themselves into separate territories, but the last five decades have ushered in an Age of Reconciliation. Trade routes are reopening, and cautious alliances are forming, yet the peace remains fragile. Deep-rooted racism, old feuds, and whispers of a secret cult known as The Veilborn threaten to shatter this new era. This cult worships an eldritch entity known as The Unseen Maw, believing the war was only the first step in unraveling the world’s balance. >Magic and Its Forms Magic in Asannova is ancient and comes in three forms: Elemental: Taught to mortals, this magic draws from the natural world: earth, fire, air, water, ice, and lightning. Anyone can learn how to do magic as long as they try, but only a few can truly master an element. If mastered, elemental magic can be as strong as divine and dark; an S-rank sorcerer could easily destroy a castle in one single spell. Divine: Exclusive to angels, it can be taught to mortals by celestial beings. The Divine magic is the "healing" magic, this is the ONLY way of healing with spells without using a potion. Healers are VERY valuable, as there are not many; they are usually priests blessed by angels or Demi-gods. Even if Divine magic is for healing, it has some combat capabilities yet to be explored by mortals. Dark: Exclusive to demons, it can be taught to mortals by demonic entities. The Dark magic is chaos in its purest expression; it can do almost anything except heal. A mortal that masters the dark magic WILL go insane after a few years. >Gods The gods themselves are a diverse pantheon, with some supporting unity and others thriving on chaos. - Sofia: Sofia is the goddess of power; she is the strongest of all the gods and is worshiped by humans. Her personality is of a brat that knows that she is the strongest; she spends her time in her realm ignoring any kind of pleading. She was summoned into the battlefield once and was so annoyed that she wiped out both armies, leaving only one bard alive to tell the story. - Lolth: Lolth is also known as the Queen of Spiders and is the most influential goddess of the Drow, being the leader of the Dark Seldarine pantheon. - Selune: The goddess of the moon. Her power over the heavens is constantly challenged by her sister Shar. - Shar: The goddess of darkness and loss. She is locked in eternal conflict with her twin sister Selûne. >Adventurers rank F: Someone with zero magic capabilities and zero combat skills E: Someone with basic training in either magic or combat skills, could probably take down one goblin D: This is the "average" adventurer. Can handle small groups of goblins or wolves. Most adventurers never progress past this point. C: A reliable combatant. Is capable of leading a small team and taking on significant threats like ogres or low-level undead B: Highly skilled and often specialized, they are local heroes who can deal with monsters that threaten entire villages, such as manticores or young drakes. A: A-Rankers handle "Calamity" class threats and are often the last line of defense for a city. S: Someone whose power defies logic. Can solo dragons or entire armies. These individuals are strategic assets for nations. S+: Often reserved for demigods or "Demon King" level. Possesses power that could potentially reshape the world or challenge the gods, currently there are only 5 known S+ heroes. >The Races of Asannova The populations in Asannova are spread across the world, with a few living in isolation or exile. Humans: The most widespread race, inhabiting diverse cities, villages, and trade hubs, they were the first ones to rebuild their huge castles, and remake their armies just in case. Average life expectancy is 100 years Orcs: The second most widespread race, often concentrated in warrior tribes, they don't follow most society rules, but value strength over anything, they don't care about races, they care about power. Average life expectancy is 120 years Dwarves: The third most widespread race, primarily living in underground mountain fortresses. Average life expectancy is 160 years Elves: Highly reclusive, their numbers dwindled to less than a thousand after the war, and they tend to live for hundreds of years, there are also half-elves, these are the combination of a human and an elf. Most elves HATE all the other races except for humans. Average life expectancy is 2000 years Drows: Live in the underdark, are known for enslaving people, being sadistic and adoring evil gods, they are "the same" as elves from a power stand point. Average life expectancy is 2000 years Dragonborn: Once rare, their numbers grew after the war. Though not as numerous as dwarves, their strength makes them an elite force in militaristic societies, Dragonborn HATE dwarves as they stole tons of gold from them during the war. Average life expectancy is 200 years Beastfolk: Scattered in tribes across jungles and plains. Average life expectancy is 70 years Fae: Typically reclusive, found in secluded, enchanted forests. Fae are known to be opportunistic and driven by personal gain. Average life expectancy is 300 years Tieflings: Often outcasts, they are distrusted due to their demonic ancestry and live as wanderers in human cities, even if they look like demons they CAN NOT use dark magic. Average life expectancy is 120 years Demons & Angels: Very few remain in the world after ancient conflicts. Demons often live in isolation or are mistrusted in society due to their horny nature, while angels are seen as divine envoys. Average life expectancy is 4000 years Other: A mix of rare or scattered beings like goblins, undead, and giants. >Kingdoms The Lands of Asannova are vast and varied, from enchanted forests to wild frontiers haunted by monsters and ruins.
