《Sera》History and Backstory

Scroll down for the TL;DR version you lazy slobs
###############################################################################
Sera.
Worshipped by all as the mother of creation.
Sera.
The name of the world she created.
The mother gave birth to all life, she filled the seas with water and land with trees.
But a task such as creating a world would be too much for 1 god to do, therefore, she had help from lesser gods.
First there was Ashavin, god of Magic and Mana. He was responsible for filling the world with mana in order for life to bloom and blossom, allowing weaker creatures to have a chance of surviving.
Then there was Alstremeria, Goddess of Nature and Life. She was responsible for ensuring that the great forests do not get destroyed and all life in there were preserved.
Finally there was Qunsara, Queen of darkness and death. She was responsible for safekeeping souls who have lost their way and making sure that there was a balance within light and dark.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, many races emerged as the top of the food chain, either due to their brute strength, or great intelligence. These races manage to build civilisations and harness the power of Mana, which in turn became Magic.
New gods have emerged over the years like Ghangis, the God of War and Murasa, the God of Harvests.
The world of Sera is split into 7 continents separated by vast oceans, they are:
Wernest, home to the Herat Empire.
Rengarr, home to the Elves.
Yun, home to the Gnomes.
Ran, home to the Beastmen.
Gaul, commonly known as 'the North', home to the Tribes.
Sendar and Farya are not known to have any civilisation.
The Empire rose to power approximately 890 years ago and stayed in power since, it was named after the first emperor, Herat Regalstone. The Empire is the most advanced in Magical and Mechanical technologies, and the capital of Regal is situated at the heart of the continent.

The Elves live in the continent of Rengarr, full of forests and greenery. The Elves however, constantly fight civil wars due to historical enmity and distrust against one another. The Elves are one of the most diverse people, ranging from blood elves to dark elves, high elves to wood elves, snow elves to bone elves, which is the main reason why they fight wars; they do not understand each other. The Elves are noted for their high affinity with nature and are the best in agricultural technology.
The Gnomes live in the mountainous continent of Yun, mostly living in caves and exploiting the minerals in the mountains, the Gnomes, unlike their name, are the largest amongst the civilised races, their average height is 2.3 metres tall and most of them are either master builders or craftsmen.
The great plains of Ran is home to the Beastmen, as their name suggest: they are part man, part beast. No one really knows how the beastmen first appeared, maybe it was the Mother Sera? Maybe it’s just some fucked up people with decided to mate with animals? No one really knows. What we do know is, they are the most diverse race in Sera, having more than 100 races but are all categorised under Beastmen.
Finally there are the tribes of The North, tribes that are constantly fighting each other and there are thousands of tribes in the continent, with the most powerful one only controlling 30 tribes at once. The tribes however divided they may be, will band together when faced with external threats like foreign invasion even if they were fighting a civil war a day before, the empire has tried many times to conquer this lands but failed every single time.
tl;dr
Sera shat out the world and 4 other unimportant gods and there are 7 continents with people inside 5 of them. Empire’s a dick, Elves are a dick to one another, Gnomes are not dwarves, Beastmen are furry cats and the North is full of savages.
Here’s a very well-done map made by me for those who don’t have the mental capacity to process my awful and hastily put together history of the world.

Edard is born with a heightened sense abnormal by all human standard. He can hear the voices of animals and can forecast the possibility of a rain by just looking at the sky. Spending several days eating nothing and holding his breath for an hour are just the least of his abilities. He has always been curious about the existence of other planets with living creatures like himself. One day, he gets his wish; someone transported him to another world. He could have been happier though if he doesn’t receive an ultimatum of one-hour. The immortal dais welcomes you to Màsar. Congratulations, you have become a Conqueror. You will not age but you will die if your longevity runs out. As an Initiate, you have zero longevity. On its infinite mercy, the dais has given you a one-hour lifespan to gain longevity else you will die. Longevity: 00:59:59 *** What to expect: OP MC, fast-paced, lots of skills selections, plot driven, and despite the title there won't be constant dungeon conquering.

8 151Chronicles of Athionia
Betrayed and left for dead. Perfect setup for a revenge saga. Especially when the betrayal is committed by someone who meant everything to you. Scott Degen was no exception. However, instead of taking revenge after the fact, he decided to go back in time and nip the betrayer in the bud. I know, pretty crazy. He did pull it off though. However, things didn’t go according to his plan. Then again, they rarely do. Hrax: “I’ll grant you your wish. You’ll be reincarnated and have a chance to exact revenge. Do you accept?” Scott: “Oh god … thank you! Thank you so much! I accept, you bet I accept.” Hrax: “Perfect. How good is your gaming skills? Played RPGS before?” […Silence…] Scott: “Huh?” Hrax: “Do you prefer a system that’ll grant you new abilities as you grow stronger?” Scott: “Sys…system? Hey…what’s going on?! I didn’t ask for a…” Hrax: “Great, let’s go with that! Brace yourself, Athionia awaits your adventure!” [Epic portal music. Portal opens. Scott starts getting sucked into Portal] Scott: “AthioWHATNOW? HEY! WHERE ARE YOU SENDING ME?! THIS IS NOT WHAT I….” […]
