Long ago during a time remembered only through history books, the first settlers found Kiora - a spherical island with a strong current of Karma flowing through it, stronger than anything in the world to this day, and with Kiora came the Dreamborn. Creatures of many shapes and sizes, ranging from humanoid to tremendous behemoths whose steps shook the very earth. These beings manipulated and weaved Karma unlike any other, as if they were the one and the same with it. Some Dreamborn even displayed sentience, and seemed to form bonds with humans through Karma itself, living with them and even bearing children together and marking the birth of Demigods, half men, half beast with strength beyond any other mortal. But not all of the unknown creatures were like this, most were nothing but blood hungry beasts looking for prey and Kiora's constant state of conflict between the Dreamborn was a prime example of that.

They were studied and researched deeply, and technology was developed to combat these creatures who appeared immune to all forms of damage.. except by their own kind. For this task, the Godwoken were employed - special individuals born from the Dreamkind or created artifically who could feel and manipulate the Karma around them. At first, they used weapons dipped in the blood of a Dreamborn, capturing their very essence into a portable prison in the form of a card. Using those meant temporairly releasing the creature from its shackles, or invoking one of its many powers. In some rare cases, the Dreamborn willfully allowed themselves to be captured, some befriended their captors even if it was a forceful one, forming bonds that allowed for an even grander display of power.
This became a sport for many, for some, a profession. Kiora quickly turned into hunting grounds for mercenaries and hunters alike, and remained one to this day.

====================================

Karma is a powerful current of energy present in all of creation, allowing those who can feel and manipulate it to perform supernatural feats previously only dreamt of, each unique to it's user. But one must be wary, as Karma corrupts the mind and body as easily as it revitalies it. Preserving and cultivating life attracts Karma, as do acts of violence and the taking of life. To strike balance is important, lest one wishes to give in to the evil side of Karma. Some even say, that the madness inflicted by overdosing on it isn't madness at all, but opening your mind to the universe's truth.

====================================

Many years pass, and the world is mostly at peace. Most nations pledged allegiance to many leaders and their factions, with three prominent ones raising to power the fastest. Saint Arcus XV and The Virubis Church, Keter and The Kirin Empire, and The Triumvirate of Akryu. However, with time many other, smaller, bands began their race to the top. With the most prominent one being the Mandate of Judgement, led by an ex-member of the Church - Mon.

Now, reports began filling in regarding the newly built town, Jadai, and sightings of various Dreamborn roaming the place alongside unspeakable amalgams of twisted flesh, and despite public annoucements that everything is under control, the world's population remains concerned.
