[QUOTE="Joshua Randall, post: 3419824, member: 7737"] Here's the one I am using in my current campaign. [i]On the off chance that any of my players are reading this, don't. This means you, Ryan![/i] Ahem. Deep background: eons ago, there was nothing, just darkness. Erebus -- more ancient than any deity -- existed in the nothingness, and was comforted. Somehow [insert handwaving], a group of proto-deities gained knowledge of the very powerful Words of Creation. Using a special ritual, they spoke these Words, shattering the nothingness into fragments -- like a mirror broken into shards of glass. We know these shards as the planes of the multiverse. Fast forward a few trillion years... and enter the PCs. They learn firsthand that the universe is being unraveled, one plane at a time, as Erebus and his cultists seek to unmake reality. The PCs must learn the Words of Creation, then travel back to the dawn of time to re-write history (or more literally, re-speak history). Only this can save the multiverse from annihilation. [i]Yes, it's really grandiose and apocolyptic. I paint in bold strokes.[/i] [/QUOTE]
