The world of Deorc Sceadu holds the remnants of humanity, nearly destroyed by a long forgotten apocalypse, leaving the Old World decimated and forgotten. What basic science survived the catastrophe is regarded as magic, and guns have been completely forgotten, replaced by steel and bows. A disease ravages the land of Ærworuld, the area once known as the Pacific Northwest, and only small communities survive, with a few banding together under various banners that constantly war with each other. The concept of Peace is a long forgotten ideal, with war, famine, disease, and death the only reality left. The tale of this dark land began long ago, but a new chapter in the story is beginning. Enter Wanderer, into Ærworuld.
Welcome to Ærworuld, a dark medieval RP set in a Dark Ages-esque world after a long forgotten catastrophe decimates the modern world, destroying nearly all of it's knowledge and infrastructure. The apocalypse is not important, nor is the world it left behind. The only thing that matters is the present and survival. Ærworuld is a land ravaged by disease, war, famine, and despair, and you are a a resident of this dark world. But you are not a hero, rather just a character in the story. You will not save the land or bring peace to the world, nor will you burn it to the ground. The world will change because of you and others, no doubt, and whether for better or worse will be determined as things happen, but at its core it will remain the same. Focus less on the big picture aspect and more on individual interactions and travels.
Note: "Magic" is just old world science, which is about 15 years more advanced than modern technology. "Witches" are just people who have found books on old technology, and nine times out of ten it is used for malicious purposes, leading to all "Magic" and "Magic-users" to be shunned and vilified by everyone else.
