Man was cast out of the garden and into the world.
The world possessed time and mortality. 
When man's time on the world ends, he is ferried to one of the lands of the dead.
Rewarded by good, or punished by evil.
Chaos stands betwix the duality, defying them.
Chaos seeks the Keys to the Garden, seeking a home of their own.
Good seeks their Lost Keys, to forbid entrance to the Garden.
Evil seeks the Garden's Keys so that they may sack and despoil it, and take its power for their own.
Order seeks the Garden's Keys so that they may deny chaos, and create a realm of absolute logic.
A tale of Soul and Sword, from days of long ago. 
Order and Chaos.
Good and Evil.
Men and Gods.
Victory and Defeat.

Chaos Garden RPG...

-------

The environment:

The main area the RPG occurs in, is ruled very loosely. Theft, Murder 
and destruction of the cities are discouraged. Outside of the cities, 
there is very little in the way of law. There are no standing armies, 
just independant warriors. The culture is a bit feudal europe/general 
medieval fantasy, a bit ancient rome, a bit viking iceland. 
There is a yearly gathering at the ruins of the old capital, where 
grievances can be aired, and combat takes place. Some fight to settle 
debts and vendettas, some fight to prove themselves, some fight merely 
for entertainment. Its all pretty much sanctioned.

To the north, is a wasteland seperating the land of the free, and a 
cold, cruel kingdom. The empire to the north is a harsh arctic land 
who's people are as sharp as the freezing wind.  The wasteland between 
them is inhabited by numerous fantastic beasts, the likes of which can 
challenge even the most seasoned warriors. You know how they label maps 
"Here there be monsters" ? Well. there, they aren't kidding.

To the south is a large nation known as Go. They are a land dedicated to 
a strict code of laws and order. Their leadership are fanatically 
dedicated to Order, as in the methodical opposition of Chaos. Their 
nation is composed of many ethnic regions, some resembling feudal japan, 
and ancient china, others resembling india and the middle east. To the 
east, is sea. To the west is wild lands, long untouched by men, and the 
remains of lost civilizations, long forgotten.
