Lore

The lore of Infinity Wars can be found across the flavour text from various cards and campaign missions. The original world, The Old World, suffered from a cataclysmic event named The Calamity. Said event is directly tied to a character that makes an appearance in multiple factions, and realities: Aleta.

She is an immortal being that doesn't age and, if killed, regenerates.

After The Calamity, the world has been split into multiple realities (a potentially infinite amount), with each of them being home to one or more of the game's factions:

• Talich is home of the Flame Dawn and Genesis Industries.
• Reish is home of the Descendants of Dragons, the Exiles and the Cult of Verore.
• The Old World is home of the Warpath.
• Avarrach is home of the Sleepers of Avarrach.

The Story

It has now been a millenia since the original Calamity, and these worlds have continued on their parallel paths for a millenia. Each, with an Aleta that has a portion of the original Aleta's personality and their minds erased, watching over their inhabitants. Each, unable to die.

With different personalities, different descisions were made over the years by them, leading to both wonderful events- and horrific that would alter the courses of the realities for peacful or catacalysmic paths.

The Old World

The original world where it all began. With the Calamity, all humans have been erased from existance. All but Aleta, The Immortal Caretaker.

She has spent over a millenia caring for the feral creatures of the old world, believing she was the only human in her world- unaware that there was, however, another. She would not be made aware of his existance until much later, with the opening of the rifts and a mutual threat of destruction from the unstoppable force of Avarrach.

With her guidance in the times of peace through the eons, the creatures of the Old World began to evolve, becoming intelligent, and some took on more humane qualities. Eventually, with the opening of the rifts, these intelligent beasts banded together to deal with those that would come through and threaten their lands, adopting the name, The Warpath.

Talich

In the reality of Talich, two main groups co-exist. The Flame Dawn- An army of soldiers bent on controlling whichever lands they land their sight on, bending them to their ruling and heavy laws.

They hail from The Fortress of the Flame Dawn in Pyr, commanded by the legendary Aberion (A-BEAR-ION), known to all as the Hammer of Dawn.

Along the Flame Dawn, exists the Genesis Industries- a corporation focused on the betterment of humanity through technology and prolonged life.

Orion, The Master Architect oversees the Genesis Industries from the headquarters in Lanstead.

Their top partnership, with the Flame Dawn has become strained as it becomes apparent that the Dawn are hiding something. He orders a scouting party to check out a particularly heavily fortified position in the north, instructing that the party move with utmost secrecy as to not jeopardize their contracts.

Avarrach

A dead land.

Eons ago, it was full of promise, with the ideals of knowlege and discovery at heart.

Aleta of this reality, had fallen in love with a mortal man. He vowed that he would find a way to be with her, to live forever by her side.

He began experimenting to find ways prolong his life along with Aleta's help and guidance. Eventually, he created a product that he belived would keep him alive. Nanomachines. They would work on his vital systems to make sure that they didnt give away and would protect him from illness. Upon ingesting the formula they had created, he realized that it had not worked as he had hoped. Instead, the machines determined that his currently existing organs were not capable of the level of function needed to live beyond his normal years. Thus, it began targeting parts of his body and attempting to replace his organs with artificial ones that would stand the test of time.

By the time the machines had reached his brain, he had already gone crazy from the unbearable pain from within. Haunted by hallucinations, he turned on the others nearest to him, injuring and killing them. The machines within him, detecting blood nearby, and people in need of aid, spread to the nearby wounded. They healed the wounds at first

and then came to the same conclusion as with "Patient Zero," and began fixing what they deemed a problem. Soon, a cycle had formed, starting slowly and then spreading rapidly.

At first, people believed they could contain the problem. But as time passed, panic began to set in, outweighed only by hopelessness. The plague was given a name- The Virus of Avarrach.

In time, the entire planet would fall and then remain untouched for a millenia, with the bodies of its inhabitants preserved by the machines playing the role they were designed for.

Aleta, cursed with her immortality, would be driven crazy as the virus attempted time and time again to take control of her body, wandering among the dead with naught but hopelessness to keep her company. She would become known as Aleta, the Immortal Sufferer.

And then, the rifts opened.

Reisch

On the Reality of Reisch, Aleta, the Immortal Sorceress resides as the leader of The Cult of Verore.

In the Wastes to the North-East, lie the demon wastes, a place where any person who enters, will leave a changed person.

It is home to the Exiles of Verore, people who have been cast out from Veroria due to their fanatical following of the demons. They bide their time and lay in wait for the opportunity
