The realms have run rampant with demons for a few decades, ever since the Great Tremor. Underneath the Oakspire Mountains, the ground shook with terror, and many kingdoms sent their finest warriors to investigate. Only darkness met them.
Not many knew that the Oakenhine Clan, a group of mountain dwarves, was in the middle of a civil war. They were completely cut off from the surrounding kingdoms, after all, and very few had ever entered their underground city. Their city, Oakenstone, was a large city that took place within the hollowed out Oakspire Mountains, and was the source of the tremor.
However, the tremor was not natural, but man-made. Explosives, the specialty of the Oakenhine, were a large part of the civil war, but this was no ordinary explosive. It was an arcane one, and devastated the city, none survived.
But the great crater left behind opened entryways to many great caverns, deep below the surface, where they hid. The demons, casting themselves in the shadows after the gods hunted most of them down during the last demon invasion, a few thousand years ago.
Yet, times change, and hearts do as well. They began to plot vengeance, and so they erupted from the caverns, killed all in their way, and, since then, had spread across the surrounding nations.
That's where our heroes, the newest members of GAG, step in, to save the world from a threat before it grows any more dangerous.

Elf: The most common race of the world, elves were the first to be made, and the last to die, for their age is eternal, and their magical power is supernatural. An untrained elf could tap innate power, and cast basic magic. A trained elf, however, can devastate the lands, and challenge even the lesser gods of the world. A sub-race of Elf is Sprite, who resemble animals and elves at the same time, they're also known as Neh'kos, in their language. Right now, major quarrels are going on between the elves and the humans due to a past war, which ended with many elven cities destroyed.

They have short life spans compared to the other races, but their curiosity and greed give them the power to accomplish many things in their short time. Humans are known to have disdain for all other races, however a fraction of the current population have grown accustomed to being around the different peoples.

A demi-god orc, by the name of Gorgrok, slew the God of War, Khairos, and took his place, freeing his people. The only known orcish religion is that to the spirits, ancestors, and to Gorgrok himself. Shamanism is an important part of orcish culture, and orcish shamans have extremely deep connections to nature, and can therefore manipulate it with great power. Orcs has warred with humanity more then once.

The Mountain and Hill dwarves were once the same kind of dwarf, however they split very early on due to quarrels, and some settled within the mountains, and others on the hills. The Gray dwarves were an opposite of the original dwarves created by the Goddess of Dark Magic, Elestra, due to her most known trait, boredom. These dwarves only live to kill, conquer, and take, especially from their cousin dwarves.

They're the most connected to machinery, and rather then explosives, specialize in arcane-based mechanics, along with electrical devices as well. They have mastered basic aviation, creating the well-received invention of airships, and are a rather short creature, rivaling the shortness of even a dwarf, but they're not the shortest. They also go by the name of Hobbit, and Halfling. They have warred with the goblins in the past, but not all of the tribes.

The Green goblins inhabit jungles, forests, cities, or perhaps a demonic-influenced region. Brown goblins are usually nomadic, and inhabit plains, deserts, mountains, and underground cities. They're very culturally diverse, every tribe having a way of life of their own. Most goblins are hostile and only live for personal gain, while a few clans are rather nice and trade their medicinal mixes for many different things, mostly currency and food. They have warred with the gnomes.

Equai are known as an all-female race, and reproduce through magical means. This is most commonly blamed on the Dark Goddess Hexrah, Goddess of Curses, who rivaled the Equai's creator, Herah, Goddess of Healing. Equai are known for their beauty, however such beauty is also backed by extreme skill in blade combat and art.
