A sacred corpse, a living world
No one remembers what came before. We only know we were born upon the immense, rotting corpse of a Dead God adrift in the ether. His tears became rivers, his blood became seas, his skin became deserts, valleys, and mountains. From divine death, a grotesque and extraordinary life emerged.
A grotesque ecosystem
Here, the laws of nature are twisted. Insects evolved into intelligent species, adapted to a world of divine flesh and fluids. Some thrive on the surface, living among hardened tissues and lakes of bile. Others delve into the Interior, risking madness for a glimpse of power or revelation.
Geography of the corpse
The Dead God’s body stretches over 200 kilometers—an enormous land when its inhabitants are the size of insects. Across its expanse rise mountains of muscle, pus-filled swamps, bone valleys, and hair-covered jungles.
Key regions include:
- The Head: civilized, fertile, and near organs of great power.
- The Torso: vast and hostile, home to nomadic tribes.
- The Extremities: unexplored and plagued by horrors.
A decaying environment
The land is ever-changing. It swells, bleeds, releases gas, and opens new wounds. Decay affects everything—climate, flora, fauna, and adventurers themselves. Random decomposition events are constant threats and reminders of the world’s inevitable end.
The eternal search
Was it truly a god? Are we inside a cosmic experiment? Sages and churches fight to impose their truths, while explorers hurl themselves into the unknown. Glory, knowledge, redemption—or madness—await in every fold of this divine corpse.
