Line 1:

In this world, the Titans created pretty much everything, including the Gods. But just like they created everything, they also destroyed everything - thus making room for new creations. The Gods, who depended on the prayers of mortals for their own sustenance, could not easily accept the wanton slaughter of their followers.
Line 13:
The primary gods are
* Corean, [[Lawful Good]] (son of Denev and Kadum)
* Madriel, [[Neutral Good]] (daughter of Mormo and Mesos, twin of Belsameth)
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
The thirteen titans consist of
* Chern the Scourge
* Denev the Earth Mother
Line 110 ⟶ 108:
* [[Ominous Floating Castle]]: You can make your own!
* [[Parental Incest]]: Hrinruuk raped his daughter Tanil, resulting in the birth of Idra. Mesos also tricked his daughter Belsameth into coupling with him while he was in disguise, conceiving Erias, the demigod of dreams.
* [[Predecessor Villain]]: The Slarecians were a humanoid race of powerful evil sorcerers who were believed to have practiced abhorrent acts like human sacrifice, black magic, [[necromancy]], and horrific biological experiments. As they did not swear allegiance to anyone, gods or titans, they were wiped out completely by the war. The things they left behind - dark magic items, forbidden spells and magic, and foul undead creatures - are used to suggest that Scarn's current state is better than the alternative.
* [[Plaguemaster]]: Chern, of course. His sorcerers and druids as well. Vangal, as the son of Chern, is the god of pestilence. However, his prefered method of killing is a bit less...subtle.
* [[Priceless Paperweight]]: The pantheon of Gods managed to slay the titan Kadum (aka The Mountainshaker). The mighty titan's source of power was his heart, so the goddess Belsameth (aka The Slayer) ripped it out... and has since used it as a footstool.
Line 126 ⟶ 125:
** Denev has a bardic order that can do this, if someone angers them enough.
* [[Vice City]]: Shelzar, the aptly named City of Sins.
* [[Villainous Glutton]]: Gaurak, of course. Many of his worshippers also fit the Trope, becoming horribly obese creatures called fatlings.
* [[Was Once a Man]]: The power of the Titans tends to turn people into their idea of perfection-Fatlings are priests of Gaurak who ate a sacred melon that is only palatable to his chosen, and [[Wicked Witch|hags]] are women who desired dark magic, which gave them [[Age Without Youth]].
* [[Wicked Witch]]: Belsamith has the general appearance in her favored form. Note the word "favored"-she's actually Madriel's [[Evil Twin|identical twin]], and thus actually a [[Hot Witch]]. She, however hates her sister with a passion and only takes her true form if she thinks there's a large gain she can get from it.
