The Mortal Realm

In Wilde Realms LARP players create characters from the mortal realm, often referred to as "The Realm" as the development of there being more than one realm of existence is a rather new revelation. The mortal realm homes a wide variety of beings who over many years grouped together to form nations, referred to as heritages. All characters come from one of these heritages and which you choose will give you an in-game benefit.

Liria, the kingdom of knights and virtue commands the largest territory in the world. Through their monarchy and noble governance, they provide a strong nation. Morals are very important to Lirian society and they believe their actions are guided by their Saints, the paragons of virtues.

Asuaine, the children of the Crescent Isle follow the teachings of "the Green", a cosmic force that exists in everything. These people are often viewed as quite odd, due to their nation being separated from all other lands for many years, as well as having all sorts of fairy tales come to life, but the people of the Crescent Isle prefer the description "passionate".

The Kiphate empire and Frozen wastes have not entered the alliance and so people of these heritages do not join the expedition.

The Wilde Realm

The Wilde Realm is a different plane of reality that sits parallel to the mortal realm. This realm is home to all kinds of strange creatures that are difficult to explain with mortal language, but most notably it is the realm of the Fey. Beings of concepts, they rule over this realm through four houses. However, in every corner of any realm, there is darkness and sickness that festers, and the Wilde Realm is no exception. The fifth house, the one the others try to ignore, lurks. Always waiting.

Many fairy tales over generations have filtered and found their way from the Wilde Realms into the Mortal Realm. Many studies and interviews have been conducted with Fey, mainly through the University of Esca and they have discovered many of the characteristics from the fairy tales are untrue. For example, Fey are very capable of lying to others, and it seems that "Cold-Forging" iron is no more effective at wounding them than other forging techniques.

The Convergence

An event that shocked the Mortal Realm and changed its perceptions forever. The Convergence showed mortals that they were not alone as the sole realm, and also proved to them that all the things that went bump in the night were very much real.

Taking place in the year 1015 a wave of energy was felt pulsing through the Mortal Realm, and sounds of crashing could be heard anywhere you were for an entire day. After this, many things began to change, but most noticeable was the emergence of Fey Touched. They began to show overnight obvious features such as horns or blue skin, manifesting the influence in their bloodline. Mortals with Fey blood coursing through their veins or Fey magic and the influence upon them. Some knew who they were and others found it just as much of a surprise as their family members when horns grew out of their heads.

No one knows what caused the convergence or why it occurred, only that the political landscape of the mortal realm has not been the same since.
