Leylos

Against The Dominion

Setting Intro

Against The Dominion is a campaign of intrigue, sabotage, and stealthy adventure. Its story unfolds in Leylos, a world crisscrossed by veins of arcane energy known as ley lines. For many eons, the peoples of this world have drawn on this energy for spellcasting, always in balance with the natural rhythms of the planet.

Then, at the beginning of the Age of Enlightenment, the races of the High Fey uncovered the secrets of Auromancy - a powerful form of casting that allowed them to directly manipulate and even redirect the flow of mana through the ley lines of the world.

This discovery led to an explosion of technomagical progress, resulting in the formation of the expansionist Fey Dominion and imbalance both in the flow of mana through the world, and among the world political powers. The Dominion rocketed to the highest echelons of influence and control, eventually leading to the aggressive conquest and consolidation of many disparate nations and peoples. Today it rules lands far and ethnostate.

However, working quietly among the peoples enslaved by the Fey, A collective known only as The Resistance works to oppose the totalitarian regime. It operates from the outskirts of society, organizing groups and factions in secret to bring down the Dominion one mission at a time.
