9. History

World History

Sezuno was a world forged in space by a great entity. This entity created many planets by combining materials in space and using energy from the stars to forge them. Some worlds were desolate and void of life but one world began to flourish. This great being descended into an alternate plane and watched new entities rise from the world he created.

Hundreds of thousands of years past, life had grown rampant. Suddenly the great Zultar was confronted in his own realm by another. One who he considered an anomaly. This was a human blessed mysteriously with powers nearly as great as Zultar. Intrigued this new entity wanted to make Zultar's creation more vast and unique. Chosen from different species he selected Five beings of different races from across Sezuno and bestowed unto them Godhood. Zultar chose to become a God to help rule over his world. They created themselves a hierachy within his realm. The first became known as the God Lord. Each other God took on an Element. To ensure his world continued to be vast a bargain was struck that at some point a God's powers had to be given to another of worth. Zultar also wanted to Sezuno aware of his existence. To do this he created 6 beasts combining his molecular DNA with that of the Gods that had been born and from them he created the first dragons. Highly intelligent and great beasts capable of taking on a human or human-like appearance. They each gradually evolved under a different element.

More time passed, great powers of clans, communities, empires and kingdoms had come and gone. Different peoples came forth evolving from the human race that was born to Sezuno. Elves, Dwarves. As time continued to pass more and more began to appear,from the Earth and Oceans. Over he course of time more Gods were born, Two additional Gods under each of the Main Elemental Gods. Each with their own unique skill set and powers to govern their own realms. The Bargain was once again bestowed that each Entity had to be unique. From these new Gods grew Abominations. Creatures of half animal and half Human hybrids.

People of same race banded together in clans. Each Clan was forged under the guidance of one of the Gods. These Clans migrated finding shelters from the beasts and tribal species of the land. From one of these clans they formed the first Empire. Then Thaenia Empire. This Empire became the first. Just North of them were the Dwarves. Though they never offically declared themselves as an Empire or Kingdom they possess the most defensively secure and fortified land in all of Sezuno. At this same time the Humans started to gather in the Western Continent. They began to build their own fortresses, towns, cities and cultures.

Before long the Vampirian Empire was forged in the Southern Continent. This Empire consisted of the dark creatures who were now getting slaughtered by the humans who had banded together as one in the west. It was a safe haven for Monsters and Abomination while being a place of death for humans. Many humans still live their lives in these communities but are generally slaves, pets, or simply strong enough to survive. With the Vampirian Empire forged the communities in the west created peace with one another and forged a complete Anti-Vampirian group known as the Neoven Empire. With the resources they managed to find they quickly advanced their technology to combat the monsters of the south. An Endless war had begun between monsters and humans disturbing the neutral humans and monsters in their way. At this time only a few cities remained Neutral staying away from other Empires. Elemenia, Oceana, Arie, Grandria, The Hub, Moonblight, Seabury and Cloud 9.

Another century passes asThe Kingdom of Zeagan was forged by a wandering Demon who ventured into the Mysterious ruins of Moonblight. The city had been wiped out by a mysterious force but under the rule of this Demon the city once more prospered and declared independence as it's own Kingdom. As it stands right now Zeagan wishes to expand it's reaches seeking the union of Oceania and Seabury. The Neoven Empire has brazenly attacked and destroyed Grandria the City of the Godlord in a horrifying night bombardment. Their technology continues to advance as they have skirmishes near the border between the Western and Southern Continent. The Vampirian Empire has begun their science division as they introduce new Abominations to fight for them violating creature after creature to do so.


Empires:

1. Neoven Empire.

The Neoven Empire was constructed by union of several Human Family's. The Xel'Dagan, Gemstone, and the Kul'dar Families. With their combined with and substantial influence in Bebilithe they were able to quickly form their own government usurping the previous government of the city an surrounding region. With the city and surrounding area under their control they were able to form an army. This army was designed with the soul purpose of protecting humanity from the threat of Meta-Humans and Monsters.

Currently the Neoven Empire is made up of 5 Major Cities. Bebilithe is the capital of the Neoven Emprie. Surrounding Bebilithe is Eternity, Destinus, Nemesis, and Everwinter. The area has many small towns and port areas. Among all of these there are 2 unique cities. Zhard is a small city that is trapped in an ever raging blizzard west of Everwinter. Secondly is the Ruins of Grandria. Grandria was once the largest and most powerful city in the world but was wiped out overnight after the Neoven Emprie attacked it.

Soon after the Neoven Empire formed it began to spread it's influence to other towns and cities trying to incorporate then into their ever growing empire. They approached the Council in Grandria. Grandria was a neutral city with many races residing in it. The Neoven Empire came face to face with Elves, Minotaurs, Dwarves and Humans all living with one another. As this went against the belief system of the Neovens they decided it was better to just exterminate the races there. The humans living there were deemed 'unclean' and therefore they also had to be 'cleansed'.

High General Denika Xel'Dagan leads the Neoven Empires armed forces. With her ingenious tactics they decided to move against Grandria by air. On a dark and cloudy night their ships moved in. A fleet comprised of their entire fleet. Nearly 100 ships bombarded the city from the sky. The clouds were able to provide enough cover for them to reach the enter of the entire city without being noticed. From that position they were able to eliminate most of the air defense of the city without much retaliation. The city fell flooding the streets with corpses. The buildings set ablaze and destroyed into ruin. Even without much air defense nearly half the fleet was lost. Another power was at work. As it so happened a Dragon was visiting the city and it attacked the fleet in retaliation of their attack. The Purple Lightning Dragon was a spectacle to behold as the two forces collided. After a bombardment the Dragon did retreat as did the Neoven forces; However, the damage was already done.

Many were able to escape from Grandria that night and they worked together with many other tribes and people to halt the Neoven's conquest for now.

Now the Neoven Empire continues to build up their forces with their forces with the intent of global conquest and the eradication of the Meta-Human and Monster races to create a Human Only Utopia.



2. Thaenia Empire

The Thaenia Empire is the oldest empire in Sezuno. It was formed by the Elves and it's customs remain even today. Flora is the capital City of the Thaenia Empire. Within it's territory are the cities of Forest Song and Hazelwood. All these cities are under Elf Control. Though there are many other races that can be found the majority of the population are Elves and Humans. The Empire thrives off their rich farmlands and prosperous culture.

However, this empire holds a dark secret from their past. Revolving around a dark and hidden era of their history.

3. Kingdom of Zeagan

The Kingdom of Zeagan makes up an entire island. There are many small communities on this island. It's main city is Moonblight. The island is richly inhabited by Vampires, Demons, Monsters and Humans. Despite it's demonic population there are an abundance of humans, dwarves and elves within the city. Many come to visit the island as a vacation destination while others are using the city as a port city to help transfer their goods to other places in the world. It is also a large travel hub being mostly used by people fleeing he western continent and the Neove Empire.

4. Vampirian Empire

The Vampirian Emprie like it's name suggests was an Empire founded by an old group of Vampires. They extended their influence shortly after the birth of the Neoven Empire as a completely Meta-Human based society. After many treatise and agreements they have completely taken over the southern continent and the three largest cities in their region. The main City is Necroshire a City forged underground. A little to the north east on is Azhera the coastal city of Magic and lastly Flamehearth to the west of Necroshire which is in the middle of a jungle. Lastly the Orcish City of Dalcor recently added their allegiance to this mighty empire.

Necroshire's military power is said to rival that of the Neoven Empire. Though they don't have the same size of a military force in terms of numbers they use technology, but more specifically biology to enhance their soldiers. A group of scientists are responsible for altering and even breeding their fierce creations.

11. Biology

Many of the creatures in this world have a unique biology. I want to emphasize a few major points.

- Magical Vs. Non-Magical.

Any organism that has the potential to use magic will have a separate system of magical arteries similar to the bodies cardiovascular system. This simply implies that magic can be channeled throughout the body and focused on certain points or evenly spread throughout the body.

- Types of Magic and how it comes together

Magic inside the body doesn't necessarily restrict ones abilities. But all magic can be derived from the Elements. Water, Wind, Fire, Earth, Light and Darkness. Each of these has a concentrated or combined form. Shadow Magic for instance is derived from darkness. Lightning is a mix of Fire and Wind. Ice Magic born of water and Lava magic from fire and earth are a few examples. Then you have the Extreme Magics. These can be defined in the ability to extend oneself beyond the normal means. This involves combining 3 or more elements together but the individual subject may not be able to produce these magics individually. Seal Magic is an extreme case that actually combines all 6 Magical elements to perform a spell under a set number of rules and conditions. Many other examples include but are not limited to: Time Travel, Teleportation, Dimensional shifting, Hypnotic Suggestion, Mind Control, Telekinesis, etc.

- Elementals.

Elementals are beings that consist entirely of magic. Normal weapons pass directly through the as if they weren't there. Their attacks are highly concentrated and ridiculously powerful. Each of them have a unique sense for the metal Dynastone. It has the ability to strike them as if they were corporeal. Due to their unique physiology they take on a human-like form, their body structure works the same way as a normal human when in contact with Dynastone which nullifies their magic but does not destroy them.

- Golems

Golems are made entirely out of stone. They are kindred to earth, they cannot fuse with it. They have extremely high defense making them practically impervious to normal weapons. They do have more vulnerability towards magic but are not simple enough to be taken down easily.

- Dragons

Dragons are the most dangerous race when it comes to magic. They bodies can regenerate quickly. Their breath attacks contain monstrous amounts of elemental energy. Their hardened scales are strong against nearly all types of metals. Though they are magical their scales are not magical maintaining their defense against Dynastone based weapons.

- Meta-Humans and Abominations

Hybrid Races are not forged of magical energy; However, any magical defense they use is nullified when in contact with Dynastone. A fire wall for instance will not stop a Dynastone based sword. It will cut through the wall without the wall affecting the weapon. The only except is Earth. Earth itself even fused with magic to form a wall will still defend against that unique mineral.

13. Magic Types

There are 7 Basic types of Magic, each of which has an upgraded level considered more powerful than the original type.

Wind - Lightning
Earth - Magnetism
Water - Ice
Fire - Magma
Light - Life -
Shadow - Death
Spiritual - Chaos - Time/Space
