Step into Dwar, a world born from the shattered remnants of countless planes, painstakingly rewoven by the heroic “Six”. But this isn’t a tale of serene creation; it’s a desperate gamble. At its heart lies the “celestial cage”, a powerful magical construct designed to imprison the Demon Lord Myndriac within the very moon above. The souls of ancient heroes, now glittering as the stars fuel this cosmic prison, their energy channeled through an intricate network of leylines that crisscross the fragmented continents manifesting as “rune circles”; gateways to anywhere… and potentially, to the moon itself.
Yet, Myndriac’s malevolent whispers still echo, especially in the icy reaches of Norsca, where fierce warriors and raiding longships clash with a lingering darkness where cults tirelessly strive to shatter the cage. Far to the south, the sun-drenched lands of Graecia. A mosaic of Greek City-States that sit along the fertile coast of the Inner Sea. Further south, the ancient ruins of obsidian obelisks and black pyramids are slowly being consumed by the encroaching desert that hide ancient secrets and powerful undead sorcerer-kings. Their grand cities and desert tombs perhaps holding forgotten keys to the celestial cage.
But the true tragedy of Dwar lies in the cage. A cruel twist of fate that traps unfortunate souls from other planes within its borders. Their magic might falter, their minds haunted by Myndriac’s corrupting essence, desperate to find a way home or simply to survive in a world not their own. Will you be one of these lost outsiders, battling to reclaim your destiny? Or a native, striving to uphold the celestial cage, to battle Myndriac’s insidious influence, and to navigate the treacherous political landscapes of a world constantly on the brink?
The threat of Myndriac’s return is ever-present, the mysteries of the Six linger in forgotten ruins, and the magical leylines promise swift passage or perilous detours. Dwar is a realm of epic quests and heroic tales, where every choice could determine the fate of a world, and the countless trapped souls within it. Are you ready to answer the call of Dwar?
