While the game can be played in any setting you choose, the following represents the default setting.

 

     The world of Estaria takes place in a parallel universe, where Earth remains mostly the same, but the surrounding planets do not. For a moment, let’s pretend that planet Mars was full of strange alien life forms, ecosystems, sorceries, artifacts, and foreign elements. Now, let’s imagine if planet Earth, through the act of intense and unfathomable magic, were to safely merge with the planet Mars. This would certainly create an interesting world to live in and explore.

 

     Estaria was formed by a process just like this. Only instead of merging with planet Mars, it merged with another nearby planet; The Magical Planet of Abyssia. This event, known as the “Fusion”, happened in the mid 1700’s, right before the industrial revolution. An event like this, happening at such a pivotal moment in history, forever changed the previous Earth’s fate; for the mass destruction, chaos, and wars caused by the Fusion took hundreds of years of recovery. The industrial revolution was delayed 300 years, and when it finally did happen, technology took on an early clockwork styled route.

 

     At the time of the Fusion, Earth had faced destruction akin to a nuclear apocalypse. Certain areas of the world were unsafe to live in, and society had fallen back to the middle ages. Earth’s ecosystem, races, and elements were forced to coexist with that of the Abyssal planet’s; Complicating life in Estaria. Fortunately, this did cause humans to benefit from two random boons:

 

     New races were found and formed. Races from the Abyssal planet were warm and welcoming, as they explained how this act of merging saved their planet from complete annihilation. The Abyssal races met were as follows: Abyssians, Titans, Astrals, Baleful, and Amuken. Through intense exposure to radiation, new Earthly races were also formed. Most notably: Goblins, Felions, Dryads, Dwarves, Elves, and J-10’s.

 

     Social structures were done away with. No more social class systems, racial or gender inequalities. In a time like this, everyone had to be as united as possible. The exact same was expected out of every race and gender, with almost no exceptions. This was further encouraged by the people of Abyssia.

While the people from the Abyssal planet brought magic, wisdom, and friendship, they also brought many unnatural evils with them. Curses and disease spread among the races, hellish creatures and artifacts filled the wastelands, and dark sorceries lit up the night.

 

     This is the world of Estaria. A dark, yet abundantly colorful world, where new creatures, races, and elements are discovered every day. Acid, ice, fire, lightning, poison, and darkness are almost as common as grass on this planet. Most of the world’s water is irradiated, and unsafe to drink. Some areas have become so toxic, that new mutations known as the “Fusion Born Sentinels”, have organized and begun their own attempt at world domination, believing they are the true heirs to this new planet.

 

     Essentially a melting pot, Estaria is filled with countless creatures, magic, technologies, and elements. Abyssal and Earthly ruins spread across the vibrant wastelands, inspiring all races to venture out in search for lost treasures and relics. Abyssal ruins and relics are bursting full of astrological and elemental magic, as their basic survival depended on it. Human remnants on the other hand, were mainly engineered recipes and schematics, and while they didn’t know it at the time, divine magic as well. For both science and religion shaped the way humans are today.
