Introduction - Setting Overview

The world of Lagashar has been broken. Ten years ago, a spear of metal and flesh descended from the stars and impaled the earth, heralding the arrival of the alien, the xenos. They were unlike anything else and wielded technology far beyond the swords and trebuchets of the mortal races. The invasion wrought unfathomable destruction about Lagashar, scourging it with nuclear hellfire, choking gas, and cloned abomination. Even gods and devils suffered from the blasphemous science brought to bear by the invaders from beyond the stars.
Five years after the invasion began, the world is unrecognizable from what it once was. Trench warfare marks the front against the xenos, with drifting clouds of deadly venom, hives of voracious nanites, and unrelenting, brutal combat. The mortal races struggle to survive with entire nations poisoned by atomic weapon, islands and continents shifted from their plates, and divine protectors slain or scattered.

What Was

Lagashar was a world of knights and dragons, mages and mystics. It was dominated by three continents, connected by trade and war but seperated only by a few days sailing. Gods ruled from otherworldy realms, while devils tempted and corrupted from theirs.
