[QUOTE="The_Universe, post: 3436400, member: 8944"] The world is a forgotten, imperfect creation of an omnipotent God. One of His first children, an Angel, becames jealous of his later progeny (a single "true" mortal race), and plots to destroy them so that he/she/it can once more bask alone in the God's love. Turning his/hers/its attention on an abandoned, lifeless "early-draft" world, the Angel, in imitation of his/her/its creator, creates life (though with a monstrous tinge--cthulhoid horrors and evil giants). Meanwhile, this same Angel convinces a few other powerful archangels that the God does not have the best interests of the mortals at heart, telling them that she hopes to save the mortals that they have been tasked to care for by stealing (and hiding) the mortals from the cruel and jealous God, before He can abandon these new creations, as well. 9 other powerful archangels buy into this, and together they plot to "rescue" the mortals and relocate them on the Angel's world (unaware that its current inhabitants are less than hospitable). The theft is partially successful. The God becomes aware of the treachery, and a great battle ensues. The Angel, who planned to feed the mortals to his/her/its twisted creations, ends up fighting a losing battle with the God. In a last-ditch effort, he/she/it manages to close the gate/portal/rift before the God can recover His lost creations...at least temporarily hiding them from Him. Leaderless, the 9 archangels find themselves not leading the mortals into an earthly paradise, but rather into an inhospitable world filled with monsters. They realize that this has been their leaders plan all along, and they ensure that the Angel is trapped within the veil from their side, as well...declaring to the mortals that the imprisoned Angel is in fact a benevolent, dead god. They alter some of the True mortals to become Humans and Elves and Dwarves (or maybe only 2 of those, since one may be the True race), and wage a war against the giants, and demons, and chaotic monstrous Things. The 9 archangels have ruled as gods for millenia, but now the Angel stirs in his/her/its prison. Mortals have disturbed the veil, and are now slaves to the Angel's insidious will. The Angel gathers its servants from the fringes of civilization, first to grant it long-sought Freedom, then to destroy the 9, the mortals, and the world, and [I]then[/I] to wage war against the God on the other side of the veil.
