In the beginning...
In the time before times , in the velvet darkness of the eternal chaos , A set of twins was born, Male and Female, opposite and complimentary in every way. They named themselves Sofia and Sabaoth. The mother of Moisture and the father of flame.
After an eternity of play and growth, the twins engaged in the prerogative of gods and joined in the union of creation. In the first nanosecond of union, 72 children were created, each a mixture of their mother and father. Shocked and amazed at the outcome of their union, and knowing others for the first time, they set about in refining this idea of creation, and after some time, unimaginable in mortal terms, the land of Gnostica was born, floating in a sea of eternal void. Formed, but without light, and without light, seeing that this creation would never be whole without something more, the father of flame sacrificed his form and light was born in the land of Gnostica. After the sacrifice of the father of flame, Sofia was both despondent and knew that she must honor the sacrifice of her twin, and thus, all life was brought to Gnostica. During this time, the 72 were mourning in their own way, except for the oldest, Lucifuge Rofocalle who decided that being the most like his father he should join in the union with his mother, the thought of this caused great abhorrence in Sofia, and she caused a great structure to form around her, one that Lucifuge could not penetrate despite his wrath. Losing both his Father and his Mother caused Lucifuge to twist, and in his madness he took the form of a Giant Red Dragon, and visited his flaming wrath upon Gnostica, for many generations Lucifuge rained suffering down upon Gnostica as well as twisting and controlling his brothers and sisters. It seemed all hope was lost, disease and chaotic creatures spread across the land, once verdant forests, shrivelled and died, as the soil and soul of the land cracked and the intelligent peoples of Gnostica hid in the shadows and prayed for the mercy of Sofia, but it was not apparent, and these lost years are known as the time of the ash bringer. In these days across the lands, different men and women awoke with a new tattoo and a desire to travel, to head towards a castle they only knew from their dreams, towards a flowing waterfall, the likes most had not seen in a generation. As they set out across the wastes, each of them braved many dangers, but all of them succumbed to the elements, cursing Lucifuge with their last breath, they died. To awaken in a vividly alive courtyard, surrounded by many fruitbearing plants, as they come to their senses a Giant of a Man approaches, a taut and savage feral cat at his side. "Greetings chosen of Sofia, I am Melchizedek and together we are going to kill Lucifuge Rofocale and bring life back to Gnostica.
