If you know where to look.." -unkown Its the age of the city of offtopic, this place; a shining remnant of a long forgotten progeny, a society shrinking but not yet dead, clinging to the carcass of the ancient floodian civilization, a desolate waste of unforgiving rocks and swirling sands, with none but a few remaining ruins to change the eye's focus under the hot sun that gives and takes life. Yet in offtopic and the surrounding lands, there was life; an oasis of land not yet scorched by the sun. Locked against the old realm by A craggy and white mountain of salt, that was the great realm of the salt miners; once an ascendant realm brought low by greed; the nation of lore and the sorely missed and devastated badlands that were once gaming, lay the realm of the offtopicans, a proud and strange people as varied as the night sky. Some worshipped the gods, others lived in contempt of them. But the Gods showed their own contempt, when they destroyed the land of gaming, a small and struggling nation that drew the almighty power of the mad deities. They were the Bungie... they watched in indifference as the offtopicans went about there various ways, and pondered when they would deem motivated enough to exert their will upon the land once more. Their God head arrogance perfect in its relative way. Only the Ninjas, sacred guardians of the land could reason with the f[i]i[/i]ckle gods, and even their power was limited. For even they could not save them, and it had been the gods who destroyed the ancient and sprawling floodian civilization. In the realm of Salt, the miners dug their fill of their faux precious sodium. Driven by instinct and their society in the mountains; greedily raking in the bounty of the gods land, miserable in their desire to find gold, only to be met with more of the useless salt... yet all are not so motivated by the herd... among them exist those who occasionally would come down from the mountains, refugees choked with salt and bitter temperance, and they enter the land of offtopic where they remain, never to leave... It is a land of heroes and Villains a land of trolls and cutthroats, but also kindness and community. a land of edgey peeps and weirdos, as free as can be under the Gods of Bnet, but a land of unending possibilities, and endless potential. *roll title*
