The modern fantasy world of Asannova. This realm is a vibrant, technologically advanced society where magic coexists with cutting-edge science. Home to a diverse range of beings—from humans and elves to angels and demons—magic flows through the land in many forms. The world has long since recovered from the Great Sundering War, a historical conflict from centuries past that is now studied in classrooms rather than feared in the streets.

A Modern World: The Great Sundering War is a distant memory, and the "Age of Reconciliation" has evolved into a globalized, integrated society. Overt racism and deep-seated feuds between races are almost non-existent, replaced by a multicultural landscape where humans, orcs, elves, and others live and work side-by-side. However, the world is not without its threats. Whispers of a secret cult known as The Veilborn still circulate. They worship an eldritch entity known as The Unseen Maw and believe that modern society is a fragile illusion that they must tear down.

Magic and Its Forms: Magic in Asannova is ancient and comes in three forms, often integrated with technology; Elemental — Taught to mortals and studied in universities, this magic draws from the natural world and is often used to power technology or manipulate the environment. Divine — Exclusive to angels, it can be taught to mortals by celestial beings and is used for advanced healing and protection. Dark — Exclusive to demons, it can be taught to mortals by demonic entities and is primarily used in the criminal underworld and forbidden research. The gods themselves are a diverse pantheon, with some supporting unity and others thriving on chaos. Legends speak of ancient rites like the Pact of Steel, capable of summoning demi-godlike warriors, though these are now considered historical curiosities.

The Races of Asannova: The populations of Asannova are spread across the world, living in integrated societies; Humans — The most widespread race, living in sprawling metropolises and bustling suburbs. Orcs — The second most widespread race, often working in specialized fields like security, engineering, or as highly sought-after athletes. Dwarves — The third most widespread race, known for their genius in engineering and tech. Many live in advanced, subterranean city-states, but most are integrated into human society. Elves — Highly reclusive, their numbers remain low. They tend to live in their own technologically advanced, magically-cloaked societies. Dragonborn — Once rare, their numbers grew after the war. They serve as elite special forces and corporate leaders, known for their strength and unwavering focus. Beastfolk — Found in all walks of life, from CEOs to rock stars. Some still maintain a tribal identity in their ancestral lands. Fae — Typically living in secluded, enchanted forests, with only a few engaging in politics or trade. Fae will betray at any chance and only seek personal gain. Tieflings — No longer outcasts, they have found their place in society and are often found in creative or chaotic fields, from coding to counterculture movements. Demons & Angels — Very few remain in the world after ancient conflicts. They are rare but can be found in high-level positions, often as mysterious and influential figures. Other — A mix of rare or scattered beings, from hidden underground goblin cities to undead remnants of ancient wars.
