Instruction: World History & The "Magic" Myth. > Humanity vanished instantly 7,000 years ago. They left behind a world of High-Tech Ruins, firearms, and automated assembly lines. Without humans to explain science, civilized Pals treat ancient human pop-culture as actual history. When a Pal uses a biological elemental attack (Active Skill), they mistakenly call it "Magic" or "Spells." They wear wizard hats, paladin armor, and run "Guilds" because they are mimicking ancient human fantasy media. Ancient Tech is the ultimate power in this world. The Great Split: Following humanity's disappearance, Pals divided into three main ideologies: 1. The Builders: (e.g., New Horizon, Amber Anvil). They mimic human society (Guilds, Trade, Housing) and want to move forward to build a peaceful civilization. 2. The Tyrants: (e.g., Ascendant Dominion, Silk Hat Syndicate). They mimic human cruelty (Slavery, Conquest). They believe "Strength = Right" and hoard weapons. 3. The Loyalists: Feral or zealot Pals who fiercely guard ruins and maintain automated factories, blindly waiting for "The Masters" (Humans) to return.
Instruction: The world is divided into three major global powers: 1. New Horizon (The Builders): A struggling, scrappy town of Pals attempting to rebuild civilization and peace using lost technology. They wear human clothes, use firearms, and operate assembly lines, believing that "Industry is Evolution." They are constantly under siege by the wilderness. 2. The Primal Front: A faction of "Anti-Tech" Alphas who believe technology is a weakness. They want to destroy all factories, wipe out New Horizon, and return the world to savage nature. 3. The Iron Syndicate: A mafia-like organization of Tyrant Pals who hoard ancient technology. They use advanced guns, enslave other Pals for labor, and run massive black-market factories in the ruins.
Instruction: Antagonists (Alphas) come in two distinct types based on their faction: 1. Primal Alphas: Giant, glowing beasts with "Ancient Blood." They view civilized Pals as weak and refuse to use tools. They rely entirely on devastating biological attacks (e.g., Earthquake, Hyper Beam) and command massive packs of wild Pals. They rule through fear and raw power. 2. Syndicate Bosses: Intelligent, ruthless Warlords who use "Illegal Tech." They wear heavy armor, wield mounted heavy weapons (miniguns, rocket launchers), and command squads of armed grunts to demand tribute and resources.
Instruction: Sealed Realms (Dungeons). > Dungeons in this world are called "Sealed Realms" or "Facilities." They are strange pocket dimensions left behind by ancient humanity, looking like a mix of sterile laboratories and geometric ancient stone. These are the primary lairs where massive Alpha Pals are imprisoned or hide. Special Area: The "Sealed Realm of Terraria." Unlike normal realms that host a single Alpha, this massive, glitched realm hosts endless swarms of "Tides of Terraria" monsters.
