The Born Again Novice
Welcome to the Lore page! I will be regularly updating this when I can. You'll find the background, lore and information (obviously), Maps and whats currently gone on so far here.
Nearly 1500 years have passed since "The Great Collapse" which ended advanced civilizations of the world. Now instead, nature has reclaimed its place as greenery and large scale forests once again cover the landscape. Huge strong parent trees tower over these forests, almost as a watchful guardian of its children. Most signs of civilization has disappeared, save for a few ruins that sit broken and decrepit from years of exposure from the elements. Its taken time, but evolution has done its work and several new breeds of creatures have been born in this new time, both found in legend and never seen before by human eyes. Many environments are highly toxic to the human body but androids and the demon beasts thrive in this land. (Demon beasts are basically what the people of our particular region call the new creatures.)
However, humanity, quite the stubborn and hardy race of people, has survived through this harsh period. Sanctuaries were built by both governments and private corporations alike, and several million humans still live, but underground. These underground settlements are the product of their advanced technology and are vast cities with the intent of copying the world they once had above. Skillfully they created a false sun in each sanctuary, allowing day/night cycles and the ability to produce crops to feed themselves. Weapons like firearms were confiscated in most sanctuaries as to prevent any further unnecessary deaths, but was largely unsuccessfully as, by this time, most humans had the Zanier Tech Implant that allowed the use of what many called 'Magic'. While the most of what people could do, since this was generally a new creation, was seemingly move large and small objects alike with nothing but their mind and a steady hand. Later on, many individuals found more aggressive ways to use this new power and skirmishes or full on rebellion have appeared in many a sanctuary.
Some sanctuaries have banned the use of Magic within theirs cities, but some continue to use and advance its uses in secret. While on the other side, some sanctuaries use it in everyday life and revere it as a gift from a god to preserve humanity. Not all sanctuaries agree and track their crimes and laws independently of each other. Most sanctuaries don't allow access to the outside, or over-world, as there is almost simply no need to venture from their safe-haven. But many youth seek the outside, listening to the stories of their parents about the world humans once dominated separate from this cold metallic city, they desire freedom. Some however do, simply to study the outside or see if its survivable. Some sanctuaries have been found empty recently however, entire populations, 300,000 people, missing in its entirety. An empty ghost city void of life and its Sun taken...

Current Map:
Cerberus
Class A Demon Beast
6'4 Tall Average
Large Black Claws
Able to control its 'tentacles' perfectly and in unison
Sharp Teeth
Able to spew an boiling acid from its chest similar to Napalm
Found Primarily in Toxic/irradiated Areas
Description:
Cerberus. This is a big one. Cruel, powerful and extremely violent. Several men are needed to take this on by itself. At younger ages they travel in packs for safety and to hunt food. Once they reach adult-hood they split off as they no longer need the competition. They roam the wastelands and irradiated areas searching for food, and can go several months to a full year without a meal. However, once their sight is locked on prey they will never stop chasing it.
Nythian Boar
Class B Demon-Beast
6'2 Tall Average
Several Large pointed tusks
Large Razored Tail
Skull thick as steel
Found Primarily in Forests
Description:
One of the many Demon-Beasts that travel the forests of the Over-world. They tend to keep to themselves and forage for plants during the day. However, during mating seasons they become very aggressive and will charge at anything that it deems a threat. Its skull can smash a tree with one charge.
Ghoul
Class C Demon-Beast
5'3 Average
Sharp teeth and claws
Incredibly fast
Able to see in Dark
Found primarily in caves, ruins, or dark spaces.
Descpition:
They are a weaker demon-beast but equally feared as a rank B creature. Ghouls travel in large groups and like to swarm their prey ripping the flesh away however they can until the poor creature dies from wounds or bleeds to death.
Just a few of the Demon Beasts from A-C that you'll find. More to come later.
Radipillars
Class D Demon-Beast
3'0 Average
Not dangerous at all
Slow
Glow in the dark
Found primarily in caves, ruins, or dark spaces.
Descpition:
These are the most passive beasts you can find in the wild. Radipillars are an abnormally large worm/caterpillar creature, that feeds on radiation, execrated matter, and anything they can digest( which is everything!). They ignore most other creatures and humans, preferring to just eat or stay in place as movement takes a lot of their energy. Their waste is a source of food for other animals, and even to humans. Their only defense is giving a rather large screech when they are killed, warning all of its kind nearby they are being hunted.
Ticks
Class C Demon-Beast
3'5 Average
Sharp claws and armored shell(but no teeth, can only digest liquids or slush)
Fast and able to climb on walls and ceilings
Able to see in Dark, and coordinate with other of its kind
Found primarily in caves, swamps, and even
Descpition:
Ticks are considered a nuisance when alone, but in packs it is smart to leave them the hell alone. They are fairly shy creatures, and will not engage on sight. They stay close to their hives, and mainly protect their source of food, the Radipilliars. If someone/something killed a Radipillar the ticks would turn very aggressive and attack the killer until it leaves their territory.
Striders
Class B Demon-Beast
70-90 Average
Docile
Slow
Stick close to forest or plains,
Very tough hide
Descpition:
Considered a very elegant beast, Striders are considered one of the most peaceful creatures and will not attack humans if they come too close. Their face is a mass of tentacles, and their bodies are huge. Scholars study the creatures for their ability to balance their huge bodies on their somewhat thin legs. The only reason is that they are class-B is that people have gotten too close and have been flattened by the beasts. Also if the beasts are scared they will take off in a stampede that can lead to major destruction in the local area and loss of life. Sanctuaries plead for people to view them, from a distance after what happened to the the surface outpost belonging to Sanctuary Paris.
Eldritch Wurm
Class A Demon-Beast
Can Average from 25 to 60 ft long
3 rows of teeth
Hard pierce-resistant exoskeleton
Burrows underground and ambushes prey
Only found in Toxic areas and the Bone Yard
Description:
Named after Mad-man Eldritch himself, its a great beast that very few have managed to kill, very less even see. Its a reclusive creature, tending to stay beneath the earth's crust where many of them hide in the deep underground caverns they had burrowed underneath the fabled Bone Yard. An ancient ruin of the past, where a colony from a sanctuary tried to survive on the surface. Only to meet a terrible and abrupt fate.
Claustier
Class B Demon-Beast
4'5 Average Height
Spews hazardous gases
Generally passive
Feeds on toxic wastes
Can be found anywhere from toxic wastelands to woodland forests
Description:
Claustier are strange new reptilian creatures which have only begun appearing in the last 300 years. Not much information has been gathered about them, as most tend to avoid them altogether. Even stepping close to them could mean your death as they will immediately pounce on you, digging their claws into your flesh and shooting poison down ones throat.
Entmu
Class C Demon-Beast
5'8 Average Height
Strong sharp beak
Tough Feathers
Very fast
Docile and found in predominately plains and forests
Description:
Entmu have been used by Over-worlders for centuries as transportation and added defense against other more dangerous creatures. Many bigger Demon-Beasts hunt the Entmu as a food source, and so the over-worlders had to constantly defend them from attackers. Once properly domesticated they became incredibly valuable as more than just transportation. Their feathers were stronger than iron, they could find and dig up roots for herbs and catch fish with ease. Now, other than using technology the only proper way to travel on the surface world is with an Entmu. These creatures have the capacity to love, and if one is able to gain its trust they bond for life.
