Divostra

15th of Marquese, 840 ME

Created by

It is the eight-hundred and fortieth year of the Modern Era. Eight and a half centuries after the cataclysmic Sundering scarred the world, day-to-day life of the average denizen of Divostra has returned to some semblance of normalcy. The terrible villains and world-scale conflicts of the Pre-Sundering era have been relegated to lines of text in dusty history books or cautionary tales parents tell their children. The mighty heroes and ascendant gods are now stories, passed down through religious worship or cultural traditions. A relative peace has settled between the many civilized societies that populate this ancient world, each learning to cooperate with (or at least tolerate) one another in the wake of a catastrophe that forever changed the plane.

Divostra is a plane with a history rife with conflict and rich in magic, formed when the Primordial Titans came to the Material Plane seeking the mysterious magical energies that emanate from it. Their struggles gave rise to the first mortal races which spread out and settled the land. Over time, Divostra served as a nexus for several interplanar conflicts, its modern continents filled with the countless mortal races displaced into this new world. Its magic is strong, so strong that sometimes the very beliefs of its inhabitants give form to gods both benevolent and terrible. These gods in turn influence the very beings that birthed them, waging wars and starting conflicts whose effects can still be felt in the modern day.
