Several hundred years ago, a man by the name of Li-Roc rose to power in a small country. Using a considerable power granted to him by an unknown source, he took control of the surrounding lands. Then the continent. He gathered powerful allies to join with him as his council. Five of these, were his lead generals.
Omega, a man from a city who had inherited the blessed armor of an ancient warrior Ormgh. Cyla, Omega's wife and master of all forms of magics. Hyperion, Li-Roc's cousin and master over all 5 elements thanks to Diloron. Sirena, a former athlete who became a powerful assassin and master of the art of stealth. Ultima, Omega's brother, a complete genius who had constructed many different forms of technology, defense, offensive and otherwise.
Li-Roc had found an ancient fountain of immortality, and drank from it. He chose to share this with his other council members. The waters didn't grant them immunity from being killed, but it halted their aging.
Using his generals, his army, and his council, he took control of the remaining continents, becoming ruler of the world. His massive power corrupted him however, and he became a brutal dictator. The other members of his council were completely behind him, except for the generals. They saw the suffering of the people, and moved to stop it.
They started a coop, and fought the remainder of the council. After they were victorious, they fought and defeated Li-Roc. His fate was never discussed outside the sages, and while they captured several other members of the council, most escaped and went into hiding. After the fall, the sages split the world among them, and began a rule of peace and prosperity.

200 years later, the world is just about the same as it was after the sages took control. The world is prospering, and other than a few major problems here and there, nothing to big has interrupted the silence of the world.
Omega and Cyla's son Shadow and his partner, Bella Dezay, an animal spirit, travel the world, keeping the peace. Thousands of other heros dot the world, with just as many evils rising up to battle them. Feral demons become more common, as the dangers of the outside world begin to intrude upon people's quiet lives. More people enroll as students in the sage's academies to help protect their families. Others set out on their own to make their fortunes slaying feral demons and beasts.
However, more and more of these occurances are seeming to be connected. No one knows who is causing these events, but Shadow and others are on alert.
Will you be the one to defeat the evil behind these events and become a hero? Or will you serve the darkness and help your master take control of the world? Or will you become a mercenary and profit from either side? It's up to you, in the Sage Dimension.
