They set up the Empire and wrote all other Exalted out of the history books.  Sidereal disappeared, and Lunars and Solars were spoken of as Demons, Anathemas.  A new religion was formed, the Order of the Immaculate Dragons, celebrating the Dragon Blooded god given right to rule.The Past five years:The Empress, most powerful Dragon Blooded and leader of the Empire disappears.  The Wyld Hunt, the organization who’s sole purpose is to track down Anathemas is weakened as the Noble houses try to win control over the Empire.  Deathlords, powerful undead beings with vast undead armies start appearing all over Creation, and the Fair Folk, creatures that come from the deep places in the Wyld, hunt the border towns of the world.  In this time of chaos, the Solars start to reappear without checks.  Now still hunted by the Empire, the solars are allowed to gain and control their powers.The PreGen Dawn  The character you were looking at Kade is from the area around Lookshy which is in the Scavenger Lands, sort of the homebase of most Exalted games.  Lookshy has one of the most powerful armies outside of the Realm, if not the most powerful.  They have access to treasure trove of First Age Technology (think magic weapons).  The city of Thorns is mentioned a few times in his bio, it’s a city that was taken over/destroyed by the Deathlord Mask of Winters, who opened a Shadowland large enough to bring an army of undead in and raze the city.Shadowlands are areas of Creation that are both in Creation and the Underworld.  You can easily enter a Shadowland, but dependant on a few factors, when you leave you end up back in Creation or in the Underworld.  Kade is based in many ways on the iconic character in the world Dace.  Dace was born somewhere near Thorns and started working in mercenary camps at the age of five or six.  Living his entire life in the Scavenger Lands, his band would get hired to defend some town for a period of time then move on to the next town.  After exalting, he works mainly for Nexus, so of the NYC of Creation.[/sblock]</blockquote>
