World and Background
At the heart of the lost land of Lemuria is a broken crystal that emanates mystical fire — the Embershard. When it broke, it caused Lemuria to shift from a fantasy world to Earth. In this near-future version of our world many saw the potential riches that could be gained from magic and pieces of the Embershard. An international organization, the World Alliance Rift Defense, or WARD for short, was created to investigate possibilities and threats.
Of course, not everyone on Earth is willing to accept WARD as the sole contact with Lemuria and some extraordinary individuals have decided to take matters in their own hands. And, of course, the lands had a population of their own at the time of the shift, both human and otherwise — some of which are willing to fight to keep outsiders away.
In the game, players take on the role of one of the many characters with different allegiances as they vie for control of Lemuria's riches and, most of all, the Embershard itself.
