History
[/size]
The Ishtar Demons
[/b]
The shadows, dense and dark, covered the sky and the horizon of Asaya. In a single night, Dezmenyr was consumed in darkness and turned into ruins, blood and death.
Deep in the rubble of Dezmenyr the population of the neighboring provinces saw evil incarnate creatures emerging from the great black mist, walking and eating everything alive, often resembling humanoid beings like us. And so, before long the entire continent of Ishtar was taken by the claws of death.
From the faraway continent Pallasyr was sent help, and then every man of the armies of support that came to Ishtar were exterminated, men, fathers, sons and daughters, all of the blood watered the soil of that land now desolate.
Now every region of Ishtar was taken by the leaders of the creatures of darkness, the terrifying demons.
The arrival in Pallasyr
And the demons sent their troops to destroy the nations of Pallasyr. The war lasted two years, when the demons have withdrawn from northern Pallasyr bay, where they tried to penetrate the enhanced defenses of the humans.
Elders fear that the prophecy of Dephaius could prove true, and the creatures return to Ishtar sooner, only to spread their shadows over Pallasyr.
*Pallasyr
The degradation of Telkyr
Twenty years have passed since the attack of demons in Pallasyr, but now another terrible phenomenon threatens the life of the oest continent, Telkyr. The land dried up, animals are dying, food is running out and people disappearing in the darkness at night.
* Telkyr
Calen, the cursed province
The province of Calen is the most reached for the darkness across the continent. Even protected and maintained by armies of Ipherianos, Calen has been noticed because of the countless murders, plagues and unexplained deaths in their region.
The news of these facts spread to the point to sensitize travelers and fearless warriors who, indignant, went toward the city to try to find the cause of all this evil.
* The Province of Calen
Even with the failure of each of the warriors who arrived there, the people still waiting for salvation.
Behold, in the dense fog covering Calen comes a warrior different from the others.
His reputation precedes him, awakening hope in the hearts of a people who have given up on life. Without any ado, the man enters the city to search for evidences and clues about the cause of all this misery but in his mind, he's pretty sure that the culprit is nothing more than a devil of Ishtar.
In Pallasyr, more precisely in the region of Krastova, this man was responsible for the end of Nebiros, a demon installed on the site. This creature was killing and absorbing the fertility of the land without arousing suspicion, until his executor invaded the depths of his hiding place and confronted him face to face.
The name of this feared warrior is Arkhan, which due to its exploits became widely known for his fame as the "Demon Hunter". In a world where everyone prays for their lives, Arkham is seen as a small source of hope.

In your search, you will discover facts about the mysterious and unknown past of the hero, that even he knows. During his journey, find allies, friends and make enemies until their objectives are fulfilled (or NOT! =]). [/ Spoiler]

Translated by PaschendaeleThe MigrationThe chaos and havok have been installed in Earth. The inhabitants number decreased 2 per cent each year, with an aceleration rate of 0,2 per cent per year.
There wasn't much workers for construction nor industry of goods, we were already condemned to disease and death.
In the year 21xx spaceships were created for space exploration.
Coincidence or not, humanity has discovered the planet Asaya, with better conditions than Earth to inhabit by the human beings.
A big spaceship was sent, N91, under control of Lieutenant Hriks. During its way they have lost communication with the command centres. The spaceship was lost and the argonauts did not know what to do. They tried to come back to Earth's route but the spaceship was wrecked, needed a rescue, but no contact made.
Some time later another spaceship arrived the planet, spaceship N110, explaining that Earth was not the same anymore and that there was a war and everything was ruined.
The Re-BeginningHuman society re-started from the zero, we had only what we have brought on our spaceships. Books, historic facts, documents preserved, paper, pens, pencils and tons of time to inhabitants translate what happened in their old planet's history.
The years come and go and its population rised, Asaya was rich in vegetables, so there was no hunger nor thirs, having plenty of resources everywhere.
But the comfort was lost, letting them know there were no machines able to help them build something complex, nor fuel or resources already conceived, or simply the knowledge necessary. Therefore nothing could be re-built.
The EpsosThe human beings trying to explore even more their regions and domains, after achieving a wide colony, discovered the existence of another human beings on the planet. Firstly known by human society as Asayas, the Epsos had structured civilizations, with a great duality, they knew how to use the mystical secrets of the universe, create matter or whatever was in reach of magic.
The Confrontation (The Battle)I won't quote the reasons here, because they are large. But human society decided to battle the Epsos. The war was extended untill Lacurya, a young boy, member of the human's army was discovered amongst the troops. With his skills to avoid Epsos' use of magic precisely, Lacurya rised quickly to General.
When Lacurya was present, the Epsos lost their focus, blew up their allies, and their magics did not respond quite well. Lacurya also possessed skills of combat unbeatable and become a legend untill today, as the strongest man in Asaya.
In the future I will add more historys of Asaya, saying about the Epsos, the ancient people that lived in Asaya before the human of the Earth apear and bring they extintion. And histories about the migration of the humans from the planet Earth to planet Asaya.
(Sorry about the desorganization, that is because my original buttons are all in another Language and too much info are still missing in this post...but I will atualize it little by little...)
