Chaos Rising

Worlds are born, they flourish for a time, and then they die, and new worlds rise from the chaos. The Builder creates, and the Breaker destroys. This is how it has been since the beginning of all time, an endless cycle between genesis and extinction, one holding sway over the other for the stroke of a pendulum’s beat.

That is, until the Builder finally decided that there should be an equal balance between the two, a permanent harmony between order and chaos. He invested all of his being into creating a balanced system of perpetual renewal — a self-sustaining cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. But his brother, the Breaker, is determined to see that alignment ripped asunder.

Chabar is a world balanced delicately between two stars. Its inhabitants have heard hints and rumors of the unending conflict between Builder and Breaker, but those are just ancient tales, steeped in mysticism and widely disregarded. When the Breaker is unexpectedly awakened from the primordial slumber in which his brother had trapped him, he starts out on a campaign of destruction to undo it all. A few select individuals find themselves unwittingly faced with the impossible task of stopping him from ending their world.
