Elysian Vanguard: The Rising Storm is set within the setting of Valore, a highly diverse and fantastical world. It is worth note that though this RP is labeled as Science-Fantasy/Magitech, the Fantasy takes precedence. Historically speaking within the world of Valore, magic came first as the planet went through many periods of development, including a medieval period. It was only as time went on that the addition of technology began to rise. So when developing characters, armor, weapons, or even races and cities, aim for fantasy driven tech, rather than things with more of a sci-fi or straight up modern feel. IE: Airships vs airplanes.

Final Fantasy is a good example of what we're aiming to capture. Mechanical ground vehicles and various flying vessels existed, as did guns, right alongside swords and magic users. Despite the existence of such technologies, fantasy remains the dominant feel of the setting.

For lore based information into the world of Valore, see [here]. Be mindful though that many of our descriptions are deliberately vague. This is so that we can provide a rough overview while leaving plenty of room to customize regions based on players own contributions and interests as the roleplay develops. We want Valore to be something that everyone can help build up, rather than laying down a strict guideline with no flexibility. The more vague a region, the more open to development it is so don't be afraid to ask questions or spin ideas.
