Teraa, our planet, for thousands of years magic has been a powerful tool of both creation and destruction, yet for the last hundred years or so it has been on the decline. Healing magic able to bring people back from the dead reduced to healing a cold or possibly even a deep cut. Massive and infinitely destructive balls of fire reduced to a simple spark. Magical creatures and races such as dragons, elves and dwarves are all dying out. Magic is not what it was, and the people are slowly accepting this.
For another hundred years all was peaceful, and magic seemed to level out at the ' mundane ' level. It was then, on a clear summer's day that clouds filled the sky and a storm brewed in the span of a few seconds, a massive rift opening in the sky and hurling chunks of a long forgotten temple into the ground below. Most of these chunks were just that, pieces of a forgotten temple, yet a few chunks seemed to have a mind of their own and they buried themselves in the earth, attracting other pieces and recreating massive dungeons and miniature temples where a single artifact eventually would appear, attracting magical creatures of all kinds to protect these relics of immense power.
These relics speak, some speak to everybody and others only to certain people, though they all share the same goal. These relics are conduits of power for gods, both evil and good. Some tell tales of the coming fire, of a creature so unimaginably terrifying that those who are given visions of the beast often go mad. Some relics wish to spare this mortal world, and others wish to end it, and each god and their relic has their own reasons for doing what they do. Whose hands will these relics fall into? What will become of Teraa when only a handful of people hold the power of a god in their hands? Will the world be spared?
In this world magic is dying out and a storm of evil is approaching, the only true hope are the handful of gods who have returned for reasons of their own, and the hosts that hold the relics. Currently I am not looking for more people, though if enough people show interest I may accept one or two others, the whole idea is that there are only a small group of gods and their relics for people to possess. If this gets past a certain point I may start accepting NON relic holding characters depending on how people feel about it.
