The Burning of Volstryggr


"Together, they would watch everything that was so carefully planned collapse, and they would smile at the beauty of destruction."


The establishment of the grand city of Volstryggr was a pivotal point for relations among the many countries of the world and a major accomplishment by those who shred blood and sweat to see it done. For a century, it has stood as a testament to the advancement of the world
through the cooperation of all nations and its peoples. It started with the dream of idealist, Isaak Volstryggr, who spent the entirety of his life advocating peace and his idea of a great capital where all the people of the world could live in harmony and work together to end all suffering. His strong charisma paired with a well-educated background made him very popular with the common-folk and even some of the aristocracy. However just as he was gaining world-wide popularity he met his end while preaching in the kingdom of Ertonia, murdered by an unknown assailant in his sleeping quarters. Isaak's death is still a hotly debated topic even in the current political climate although it is now known he was assassinated by a fringe group not directly tied to one government.

Followers of his ideology took up the torch including his own his daughter, Elyssa Volstryggr, who is documented as having "The voice of a goddess incarnate..." by officials over-seeing one of her demonstrations. Elyssa is credited with forming her father's work as a formal, documented school of thought and practice in the book 'The Merits of Peace'. The world would still see many crippling wars and atrocities before it was able to come to the present, where the dream of Isaak was finally made reality under his descendant Alexander. Volstryggr is currently the largest metropolitan area in the entirety of the world with the largest diversity of people as well. The peace is kept in the city by a dedicated group of police and sentinels, autonomous armor suites, along with their handlers. While the nations of the world have established a peace that has gone unbroken for a hundred years, there is still discrimination and inequality. A council involving all nations in charge of the operation of Volstryggr, hand-selected by the current head of the Volstrygr family which is currently Emile Volstryggr.

A new terror is lurking undetected within the streets of Volstryggr, a serial killer referred to as the 'The Blood Angel' for the way in which his victims are found. The bodies are found headless with their backs cut open and the skin spread like a pair of 'wings'. As of current, the Blood Angel's victims near 40 total and there are no signs of stopping him. Emile has assigned Chief Vey Katama as the lead in the investigation but a scarce amount of evidence has been found and his methods are not yet understood. It is not the only threat to the residents of the grand capital, a dark force seeks to undo centuries of progress and return the world to its warring ways. How long will the peace that so many fought for last against these rising threats? What other dangers are waiting for the perfect time to strike?

===========================================================================================================

You are a citizen of Volstryggr, either born or moved there. Whether you are rich or poor, Human or Orc, mage or merchant; you understand there is something serious brewing in the horizon. Once set upon your path you will be faced with many choices that could lead to surviving this impending crisis, or falling in its wake. Will you save Volstryggr? Or will you let it fall to ashes?

The process to create the Magnus core was lost soon after the city was built


"In hindsight, leaving the only copy of the Magnus Core assembly guide so close to Snuggles' kennel probably wasn't the best idea"

Im nearly done, I'm still adding critical details here and there though.

Although I encourage you to go on ahead and boot up the IC, as I don't like the idea of being the cause of others wait.
