Renata

2072 AoH

Created by

The World of Renata is small and young, untouched by industry or the ravages of civilized life. Renata is a world of Gods walking the land as rules, heroes and tyrants who rise above their creations and subjects with their divine power, together the Pantheon created the Ordering; a strict system of laws and cultural cornerstones that keep a diverse society comprised of many vastly different species and races together in harmony.   The Established Factions of Renata live relatively peacefully with plentiful resources and few threats to their power as a new force of Magic accessible to all begins to uproot the equilibrium and threaten the peace a new era of Renata beings; the Age of Arcana.   Renata is a Low Magic world set in the early middle ages technologically, most of the known world uses technology and architecture similar to what you would find in the early middle ages, with plentiful religious worship and strange cults devoted to various deities.   Gods are far less powerful than in most other Fantasy settings, in Renata a god is only as strong as his strongest follower, as their formless and immutable power needs to be channeled through a devoted believer to become functional divine magic, as such Divine casters are rare but highly coveted. Arcane magic is in its infancy and as such is seen as non-existent, Some races have been bestowed with supernatural abilities (Such as the Drow) that allow them to cast certain spells, but this is seen as supernatural divine gifts. Magical items exist but are extremely rare, the wielders of these are often great leaders or legendary heroes.
