Xsarra

Xsarra is the planet on which the Unholy War is waged. It is the homeworld of the Arcane nations.
==Appearance==
Xsarra is a planet with a characteristic red hue. No notable oceans or geological structures can be seen in its depiction in the game. However, it known to have small bodies of water, deserts and caves, as those are all places where battles occur.
Xsarra has an unusual radiation field that was exploited by the Teknos to mask their presence from the Hunters.
==History==
Before the advent of humans on Xsarra, the Magus Lizards were the dominant species there. They were an educated civilization, treasuring knowledge like gold. This proved to be their downfall however, as their curiosity led them to release the Prana Devils that were trapped in an underground tomb. The Prana Devils almost overran Xsarra, until effective spells were found to counter their expansion. By the time that happened, only a few Magi were left.
At some time, an alliance was formed between the Magi and other species on Xsarra, that would be known as the Arcane alliance. Its members are mostly made up by primitive tribes, but they are adept magic users. Although each of the Arcane members have their own habitats, their political capital is the holy city of Kenai.
About 3000 years ago, the first humans arrived on Xsarra after being exiled from Earth. It is not directly stated whether those humans were already part of the Teknos alliance or not. Nonetheless, 500 years ago, a war broke out between the Teknos and the Arcane over the rich AUR occurrence on planet Xsarra. The Teknos value AUR as an efficient energy source, but the Arcane people revere it as sacred. Although the Teknos had the far superior technology and the Arcane alliance were mostly primitive tribes, the latter warrior's battle skills and use of magic allowed them to hold their own against the Teknos. As no army could triumph over the other, both sides agreed on a truce that would grant fragile peace for centuries.
However, some event caused the truce to end. This was most likely when a Dark Angel and a Quicksilver fled to the Deadlands twenty years ago. They almost broke Xsarra's most fundamental law: that no child of both nations should ever be born. Thus the battles continued until the present.
