Cool, glad it looks like it might be useful for your campaign, yipwyg42.

I've also benefited, by learning about Shannara for the first time.

Google and the web archive can work wonders sometimes. And actually, that newish RPG Search Engine (courtesy of Google, unsurprisingly) is showing promise. For those who might've missed that one, it's linked to on the front page of this site.

Basically a fantasy setting that takes place years after an apocalyptic circumstance happens in our world.

An advanced society crumbles after a tragedy giving rise to medieval, magical society. Source material is source material. Any GM worth his salt can modify a setting into another setting with little or not difficulty. The ideas are what counts in my mind.

From http://www.redspirepress.com/products.htm

"Dark Legacies is set on Earth, thousands of years after an apocalypse sent the world spiraling into the eternal night of the Abyss. The intervening millennia have seen that world scoured by demons, populated by mysterious races of unknown origin, and eventually reclaimed by humanity as the Reversion pulled it out from its dark prison. The sun rises once again on an Earth that now lingers halfway between the mortal and demonic planes.

On this reborn Earth, unnatural creatures terrorize the wild lands, practitioners of demonic magic threaten the foundations of society, humans and nonhumans alike pile upon one another in polluted and overpopulated megacities, and adventurers explore ancient and afflicted territories, where they battle for coin, for knowledge, and for glory. And always, the people of the new Earth are wary of the demon threat lying beyond the horizon, where a perpetual storm front marks the entrance to the ever-waiting Abyss."
