The Sorcerous Kingdom of Magicka was attacked by the Red Sun forces of the Holy Empire of Landor, led by the villainous Pyratus the Flame, a sphynx cat man, and backed by emperor Landor himself, the western border city of Orion completely decimated and destroyed. Magicka fought back, led by queen Lunaria, an owl woman, but the empire's power and numbers allowed them to steamroll the sorcerers with little effort. Eventually, the capital city of Academy Gate was captured by the Red Suns, and the queen and all her forces fled north, to the Snowfields and the northernmost city of Renna. Those who made it through were put into a force known as the Dark Moons, named after the kingdom that once ruled Magicka in the ancient times, a message was sent to the desert land known as Malimore for assistence, and the army marched back to Academy Gate. However, the Dark Moons were ambushed by the Red Suns and Pyratus himself! But just when times were uncertain, a man named Adam Blaccat, a bombay cat, attacked Pyratus and sent the army into chaos. Although Pyratus lived and Adam died, this allowed the Dark Moons to escape and continue to Academy Gate, retaking it with help from the Malimorian forces. Days later, a mysterious assassin killed Emperor Landor. With Pyratus injured, the emperor dead, and the capital of Magicka back under Magickan rule, everyone was expecting Magicka to do a full scale attack on the Holy Empire and destroy it and it's tyranny once and for all... But then, a peace treaty known as the Eclipse Treaty was signed, ending the war.

While many were happy with the war finally being over and the Empire heavily weakened, many were unhappy. One of these were the forces of the Dark Moons, who wanted the Empire to fall to Magicka. Because of this, the army refused to disband, and the Queen's daughter moved to the city of Renna to begin a new, independent nation consisting of the northern parts of the Snowfields, where the ancient Dark Moon kingdom once stood and with a government best described in our modern language as socialist.

And now, you live in the Dark Moon kingdom. Who are you?
