Campaign premise

The time of wonders has passed.

347 years ago the gods were silenced, leaving a world that cried out against humanity. The forest seemed to rise up and destroy all the humanoids that existed, until all that was left was Faust. The continent Faust was filled with cities with large protective walls to protect against the onslaught from nature, put in place by the last living emperor.

Humanity has been rebuilding inside these walls. Tunnels to other towns have been established. Airship and Tunnel Runner guilds have formed. Humanity has reached a level of stability and has even tried to expand... always vigilant against the tree line.

Magic has almost been lost. The creatures of nature seem to be attracted to those who have talent or some magical object, seeking to send them to oblivion. Centuries ago the druids appeared to have lost their sanity and their ways have been lost. Clerics and their power in this world have vanished most killing themselves when the gods severed their ties.
