Isedyáx

82 Years After Unification

Created by

An eon has passed since the last of the Children of Rieshu departed this universe, leaving behind the bodies of their fallen siblings. Even the Grandchildren have long since moved on, scattering their markers over every world so that all might know of their accomplishments. Now, on a small satellite of Riatu's corpse known as Chastux, three proud races seek their fortunes on Isedyáx, the only continent to be found among Chastux's massive waves. The Ɱoˈsosur and K˨˦sh˩˧ currently live under the rule of the Žejáyœ, whose Unified Tetrarchy fractures further with every passing year.   This is a universe where magic is as fundamental to the fabric of reality as gravity. The godcorpse Riatu radiates immense amounts of magic, bathing its satellites in life-critical energy. As a consequence, all of its moons host a vast proliferation of life forms, though Chastux is the only one with intelligent life, boasting not just one but three sapient species. The Ɱoˈsosur of the Emerald Isle and the Towering Ocean are native to a tropical island surrounded by constant storms, while the K˨˦sh˩˧ dig their deep burrows in the far north of Isedyáx. The First Lander, Second Lander and Bed Walker lineages of the Žejáyœ are amphibious, hailing originally from the ocean floor, and currently vastly outnumber both of the other races combined.   Though the Unified Tetrarchy of the First Landers successfully brought the entirety of Isedyáx under a single banner less than a century ago, political incompetence and the premature death of the last of the Unifiers has left all four of the Tetrarchy's thrones empty. In their place, nine major and five minor factions - the Claims - have managed to find their way into political power. When civil war inevitably broke out between the powers following the bloodiest battle in known history, every power agreed to no longer engage in violent conflict with any of the others. In place of traditional warfare, intrigue and espionage have become the new favoured weapons of politicians who seek to exploit the illusory comfort of the Pact of Peace for their own ends...
