The World of Adel

A lone giant upon the surface of its world, Adel is a supercontinent surrounded only by smaller islands and an endless sea. It is a land of vast forests, great plains, cold peaks and harsh deserts. A land of anthropogenic variety and natural beauty, of primal wilderness and supernatural mystery. Adel is the result of untold devastation, of billions of souls snuffed out in the blink of an eye so that a billion others could begin the world anew, and a new culture could rise from its ashes.

When the Last Cataclysm raged it tore apart the surface, boiled the oceans, cracked the sky. The Lost World vanished and Adel grew like an innocent flower upon its corpse. Unique peoples, strange machines, pastoral communities, small gods, dangerous fauna and fallen beings all share this world. It is remarkably peaceful and beautiful for its circumstances, but not without danger. Heroes are the common folk standing against natural and unnatural terrors, soldiers protecting their nation, magicians seeking understanding, and the devout hoping to unify and uplift their people and those all around the world.
