Horizon is a limitless retrofuturistic realm where technology and magic fuse into a dazzling tapestry of ever-expanding biomes and cultures, from ancient elves to astral gods, all converging in the sprawling metropolis of Metropolis. Yet beneath its shimmering veneer lurks Hades’ demonic horde, threatening to shatter the fragile balance of this ever-growing world.

World Overview

Horizon is a retrofuturistic dimension with high levels of technology and magic, its motto being "Where the future and the past do not exist".

Geography & Nations

Horizon has no end or a single geography, it is always expanding and archaeologists and geographers are always discovering new civilizations and biomes. One of the largest cities is "Metropolis", where the greatest variety of races, technology and magic coexist.

Races & Cultures

Almost every race created ever is here, from humans, elfs and orcs to astral entities and gods.

Current Conflicts

Evil has penetrated many places within Horizon, leading to conflicts and wars, commonly instigated by Hades and his underworld demons. So far, they haven't attacked, but they haven't remained passive either, as they've been spotted lurking around the lower villages of Horizon.

Magic & Religion

Magic works in countless ways, depending on race and culture.

Planar Influences

Mortal beings usually live together with immortals, but some entities need to live in other planes that are special to them.

Historical Ages

"The Memory" is a place where one of Horizon's greatest wars against Hades' forces took place, creating a valley where no life can exist until Hades is defeated.

Economy & Trade

Most civilizations prefer an economy based on a single currency, but some accept the exchange of goods for other goods or services.

Law & Society

The law protects all existing beings and attempts to ensure equality and equity among all, regardless of cultures, needs and/or races, whether dominant or foreign.

Monsters & Villains

The most dangerous place in all of Horizon is the Underworld, where Hades resides along with his army of demons, who are the main threat in Horizon.

Sword Art Online

The Tower is a colossal, mysterious structure that dominates the world. Rising far above clouds and mountains, it contains 100 floors, each a unique realm with its own climate, dangers, and society. Every floor has a city where some dwell, trade, and train, while others push upward in search of glory, power, or survival. Magic is rare and feared; most rely on skill, strategy, and courage. Few know the truth of the Tower’s origin, but rumors hint that reality itself may be shaped by its unseen purpose.
