The Laws of Planelore: Tales of Magic, Might and Mystery
Planelore carries many fantastical feats and magic, as well as multiple planes, dangerous beings, and deities that walk the world. It is deeply rooted in fantasy, though has many real-world aspects to it.
There are multiple types of magical forces and energy in the world. A few examples are:
- Mana, the fundamental magical energy of the world. It is what most spells are based on.
- Primordial Mana, the root source of mana. It is turbulent and unstable, and nigh impossible to control, only guide.
- Psionics, the power of one's mind to generate supernatural powers and abilities.
- Life-force/Ki/Chi, the ability to utilize the energy within one's own and/or other's bodies to commit extraordinary feats.
Cosmology
The universe of Planelore was created by a nigh-omnipotent being known as Gargantua, who also watches over the universe and prevents it from being warped or torn beyond repair.
This said, most people within the universe of Planelore are unaware of this, and as such have their own beliefs for how the universe, planes, and everything came to be.
Initial Active Setting
The scale of this lore is intended to be continental. It takes place in the Amnisican material plane, on the continent of Amnisica, a turbulent land that is known for its many struggles and how much it hardened the residing people.
