The elves once dominated the world with an iron fist. Correllon abhorred what his people had become and rallied his remaining faithful and the gods of the other races to fight the decadent elves. The ruling elves, without a divine sponsor, turned to demon lords for aid. Gods and demons warred. The result of this war banished magic, arcane and divine, from the world. The essence of magic was locked away. All magic items became inert relics. There were thin spots where magic seeps through to the material plain. Correllon's faithful elves guard these sacred areas and are rarely seen.   Fast forward a millenia, monastic discipline has discovered psionics. Abbeys and monasteries gain immense power within the splintered kingdoms. There are few magical beasts and monsters roaming the world. Wizards and sorcerors are locked in to the few thin spots that arcane magic will work. Holy shrines are places where clerics can perform miracles and divine magics. They are ferociously guarded for the power they contain. People carry relics of the past in hopes that they will work in a passing thin spot. A wand of Cure Light wounds triggers at odd times in the mountains. A powerful sword of the Celestial Wars turns its wielder invincible defending a holy shrine of Pelor.  Some things you need to look out for:   Use the "without spell" variants of the ranger and paladin   Clerics are bound to sites and places   Rituals are overly complex to prevent another magical cataclysm, lengthen the casting time of all spells.   The majority of the populace would be terrified of magic. Pitchforks and torches.Grim</blockquote>
