Sandwich World

video File:Placeholder
The Sandwich world is the name for the original state of the universe - a series of flat planes that were stacked on one another, floating in space around the Elder sun.

## The First Layer

The first layer was the world as it existed in antiquity, a vast area full of untamed wilderness and powerful magic - then one of the races on it mucked it up for everyone.

The first layer was inhabited by Khern (Extremely lanky gnome-types with a penchant for nuclear power), Giants, Anime (Animated objects), Humans (They're worse than rats, they get everywhere), and Mandar, who can only be described as elves with lasers.

There were also a smattering of bear-people, goblins that could change their size, and an awful lot of demons, but let's address the Mandar first.

As it happened, some event in the past of this world managed to cause the entire Mandar race to band together. They then decided to use their innate talents of destruction magic to lay waste to fully 90% of the world. This is generally regarded as a Bad Idea.

After 90% of the world became ash and gravel wasteland, it turned out that whatever the Mandar were trying to destroy (Probably Flesh-eating rabbits) had been replaced with a vast multitude of demons. The remaining people of the world then had to erect giant walls and keep them constantly guarded in order to protect the remaining part of the world.

This was probably not too exhausting for them, as all the smart people in this world took advantage of defensive magic to wrap themselves in force fields many times stronger than their own flesh and blood bodies.

Oh, and they had nukes. Probably far too many for their own good, since the Khern really like explosive things, and also really like airships, so the technological level of this world was actually quite good, until a certain EVENT occurred.

This event (An Old Lady's House) involved a group of adventurers angering the gods by shooting a member of their party into space from their base in the wasteland, and broadcasting the whole thing to the rest of the world, who paid quite profusely to see the whole thing, as no one had ever been shot into space before. Their party member disintegrated when they hit the Void Beyond Worlds, and the rest of the group got an awful lot of money from it. But then the gods became angry (Presumably) and tore apart the Sandwich world, scattering the pieces to become the worlds we know today.

## Setting Notes

Running this setting is quite simple, as it is a rather early setting.

- We have airships, houses that walk on legs, nuclear bombs, and guns. We are devotedly steampunk, and don't try to tell us otherwise, or we'll set the Flesh-eating rabbits on you.

- 90% of the world has been charred into wasteland. There's probably some really cool ruins and stuff out there, but there's also an awful lot of demons, which come in nearly every form imaginable.

- Magic is primitive, limited to basic uses like shooting energy beams, creating force fields, moving matter, and giving life to the inanimate. It is also very, very powerful within those four narrow fields, and could be refined to more delicate uses with a bit of effort.

- There are quite a lot of gods and more complex magical things running around. They're very strange, and don't follow any particular theme.

- **DO. NOT. ANGER. THE. FLESH-EATING RABBITS.** They're horrible little rabbits with twitchy noses and sharp teeth. If they get your scent, they will swarm after you, and any damage you deal to them that doesn't kill them causes them to split into 2-9 rabbits. They are only as durable as regular rabbits, which makes it worse. If they start eating eachother, it just makes more of them. They will literally attach to one another and form giant rabbit spheres to roll after you. They might join together to form a rabbit-bird, or a rabbit-spider. If you don't kill them all, they'll just come back. Burning them is good. Poisoning them is good. Starving them makes them eat eachother and create more, which is bad. You cannot make the rabbits your friends, so don't try. The rabbits are not nice. They are not good bunnies. And they will find you.
