One of several MUDs developed by Iron Realms Entertainment (of Achaea fame), Lusternia was released in 2004 and combines elements of fantasy, sci-fi, planar travel, steampunk, and cosmic horror stories.Long ago, there was nothing but a presence called Yudhe. Lonely and bored, he conjured two daughters for company: Magnora and Dynara, who became, respectively, manifestations of Destruction and Creation. For many eons, Dynara would create planets, stars and galaxies for her own amusement; Magnora would follow behind and eat the result. The only thing Dynara could not truly create was life. Though she did manage to beget intelligent beings, they were soulless and hideous, existing only to eat. Magnora either devoured these monsters, or kept them as playthings, feeding them scraps and making them ever-more monstrous. All this changed when Yudhe begat a son. This nameless, formless son taught Dynara the secret of true creation — splitting off pieces of themselves, the two siblings could create lesser forms of life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Dynara loved these intelligent, many-varied creatures very much, and refused to let Magnora devour them, disrupting the natural order and enraging her sister. Consumed by anger, Magnora ate the Nameless Son of Yudhe, and he vanished from existence. Both Dynara and Magnora were overcome with sorrow, for they were both part of Yudhe, and he was much affected by the loss of his son. Together, they struck out to find him, departing the universe in their quest, never to return. Only their children were left behind. While the older, Soulless Gods sought only to consume, pervert and destroy, the younger gods (dubbed 'Elders' by the half-formed Gods who, without Dynara, would never grow to full potential) sought to populate the world with plants, animals, nature spirits and life. The Elder Gods were drawn to the First World, Lusternia, to make it whole with their efforts: the Soulless Gods, further out in the cold Void, were drawn to the First World to eat their siblings and destroy the universe.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })And so a great war fought between the Soulless Gods and the Elder Gods decimated the land. Many Soulless and Elders died in the skirmish, until only the five mightiest Soulless Gods remained: Illith the Leviathan, Crazen the Greedy, Great Muud, Zenos the Silent Death, and Kethuru the Almighty. The remaining Elder Gods either fled into the void or "sharded" — the Gods that 'sharded' died, but also created the mortal races, which retained qualities of their 'parent' God. The mortals fought, and ultimately imprisoned the remaining Soulless after many years of conflict. They built a mighty empire in the intervening years, and all was prosperous...... but the civilization grew stagnant and proud. Their quest for ever greater power inadvertently released the mightiest of the Soulless, Kethuru, from his prison, and his tainted effluence transformed many mortals into undead monstrosities before he could be re-sealed. The Empire fell apart, numerous new animosities (and old ones long forgotten) were sparked, and war began. Even the return of the Elder Gods didn't change things: the flawed deities, remembering their old animosities, became patrons to favoured mortals and began to fight amongst themselves. There has been conflict ever since between the chief organizations of Lusternia:Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); }) New Celest, former seat of the Holy Celestine Empire, containing both noble knights and nutty zealots; Magnagora, seat of the Tainted, with shades of social Darwinism, a thriving aristocracy and Steampunk technology; Hallifax, a futuristic society with communist and scientific leanings; Gaudiguch, a hedonistic society with shades of eastern philosophy and an emphasis on transformation; Serenwilde Commune, the Last Fertile Region, populated by people who shun civilization as responsible for the Taint; and Glomdoring Commune, an insular, xenophobic society who shun civilization, but also have a plan to get rid of it.And that's not even the worst of it. Remember the five sealed Soulless? They cannot be destroyed even with the return of the Elder Gods; they've devoured too much of reality, and are now an integral part of the universe. Kill them and you kill everyone and everything else. That wouldn't be so bad if their prisons were foolproof, but, well, they have a habit of breaking free. Once a generation, at least one of the horrors will slip through the cracks and the boldest adventurer of the time must ascend to divinity to reseal them once more.Notable for a rich, intricate history and dynamic player-run politics, it can be played via browser at Lusternia.com. | |

Newbies also get such a zone for a limited period, with exits much more relevant to them. | |

| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_17a969de | comment |
Gaudiuch is the city of chaos and fire, and it shows, but talking to its NPC inhabitants reveals that it does, in fact, have a few laws to protect the basic rights of its citizens (such as freedom of speech). Rather than being a free-for-all, Gaudiuch has the rule that you may do whatever you want as long as you don't impede someone else's freedom. | |

Nigh-Invulnerability | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_1f7c89f6 | comment |
Nigh-Invulnerability: All of the Soulless are functionally indestructible thanks to eating so much of reality that they're now an integral part of the universal infrastructure. (Estarra could kill them, but doing so would necessitate recreating the entire multiverse from scratch.) Notably, they're all a slightly different flavour of Nigh-Invulnerability: Kethuru and Zenos are intangible, Illith is The Juggernaut, Crazen's a Blob Monster and Muud has a Healing Factor. | |

For Science!: A common attitude in Hallifax, and the sole reason for being of the Institute. Also apparently the governing philosophy of the Holy Celestine Empire's science department, thus the sheer number of screwed up failed projects littering the world. | |

Whatever Mancy: Geomancers, Aquamancers, Aeromancers and Pyromancers. Unusually for the trope, the diametrically-opposed organizations are not based on elemental ties. Aquamancers (of Celest) are against Geomancers (of Magnagora), while Aeromancers (of Hallifax) are against Pyromancers (of Gaudiguch). | |

Perpetually Static | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_293b5254 | comment |
Perpetually Static: Invoked in most quests, which eventually reset, but some of the bigger quests (such as Mount Dio) do not automatically reset, and require a counterquest to return things to normal. Also averted in alliances and warfare between the six player-run organizations. The politics constantly switch around, based on what the leaders consider to be more advantageous at the time. | |

State Sec | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_2a3006e5 | comment |
State Sec: The Sentinels of Hallifax are a fantasy variant of State Sec. Amongst other things, the Sentinel Company are elite soldiers, Secret Police and Time Police designed to rein in the many paradox-causing experiments of sister organization The Institute. Hallifax in general encourages this trope as part and parcel of its dual futuristic-Communist motif. | |

Evil Sorcerer: The Nihilist Priesthood is a whole church of them. They worship extradimensional Demon Lords, practice Necromancy and wage a veritable war against the Three Fates (since the Nihilists regard predestination as slavery, and undead immortality as the path to freedom from it). Ironically enough, the Nihilists once worshipped the Fates, but forsake them when they didn't lift a finger to save them from becoming... well, what they became. | |

Fish People: The Merian race. They are decidedly non-human in appearance, being scaled, hairless, blue and finned, but are a highly attractive, intelligent and noble race with a proud history of scientific accomplishment. Interbreeding with humans has resulted in a few crossbreeds, some even having hair — but however diluted the Merian genealogy, all "real" Merians can breathe underwater. | |

| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_4c095112 | comment |
Call to Adventure: An interesting take: adventurers must venture through the Portal of Fate to be marked by destiny. It's implied that people who don't do this squander their potential and remain as NPCs. | |

Our Dwarves Are All the Same | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_5281d5b1 | comment |
Our Dwarves Are All the Same: Lampshaded. The Dwarves were originally called Clangoru (descended from the Elder God Clangorum), but when the humans arrived from a different dimension, they immediately started calling the native Clangoru Dwarves, and it eventually stuck. That's because the Clangoru were indistinguishable from the dwarves of the other dimension. | |

Dark Is Not Evil | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_575fd5e2 | comment |
Dark Is Not Evil: The Vernal deity Urlach, who used The Undead as shock troopers against The Soulless. This brought him into conflict with other, more idealistic Vernals. Gaudiuch is the city of chaos and fire, and it shows, but talking to its NPC inhabitants reveals that it does, in fact, have a few laws to protect the basic rights of its citizens (such as freedom of speech). Rather than being a free-for-all, Gaudiuch has the rule that you may do whatever you want as long as you don't impede someone else's freedom. Of course, there is also nothing stopping players from being decent people regardless of race, so it's entirely possible to play as a kind and humble viscanti or illithoid. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: The chief organizations have a lot of basis in real life countries. Magnagora is much like WW2-era Germany, with their emphasis on racial purity and extreme nationalism; Hallifax, meanwhile, is a clear take-off of Communist Russia, right down to their aims being laid down in "The Collectivist Manifesto". Celest represents a declining British Empire, with their emphasis on nobility coupled with their increasingly vestigial nature. You could also make a case for Gaudiguch being America: freedom-loving party animals engaged in a Forever War with the communist Hallifax. | |

Death World: The Astral Plane, the outermost layer of existence (that mortals can reach), and the one closest to Kethuru and The Void. It's populated by grotesquely mutated animals and much of the plant-life is sentient and malevolent.

I Don't Like the Sound of That Place: Magnagora and Gaudiuch are known as the City of Evil and the City of Chaos, respectively. Gaudiuch subverts it though, as it isn't actually such a bad place to live. That is, if you don't mind the fire. The cosmic plane of Nil, which is directly tied to Magnagora, houses five demon lords whose lairs have appropriately ominous names as well. | |

Our Liches Are Different: Lichdom is the ultimate skill in Necromancy. The Necromancer dies, but rises again as an archlich — with increased strength and intelligence, a freezing aura, and the ability to bestow a lesser version of lichdom upon non-Necromantic allies. Nihilist priests fit the Evil Sorcerer mould and like the idea of immortality: elite ur'Guard troopers are mainly in it for the increase in power, becoming Death Knights in the process. | |

Psycho Serum | |

Psycho Serum: The Soulless Elixir pioneered by Fain and company during the Elder Wars. It made them exponentially more powerful, but more aggressive and megalomaniacal. Ultimately, they began devouring other Elder Gods and were banished to the Void. A certain quest within the game also drastically increases your power reserves, at the cost of driving the player temporarily insane due to parasitic infestation. | |

Dumb Is Good: Played with. Raziela, the Supernal of Love and Peace, is not outright stupid, but she has the mind of a twelve year old, making her incredibly naive and trusting. She's also one of the most powerful mobs in the game (even stronger than her fellow Supernals), and her counterpart in the Demon Lords is a horribly mutated blob with little reasoning left. | |

The Hecate Sisters | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_9c209a57 | comment |
The Hecate Sisters: Directly referencing the Moirae of Greek mythology, no less: Clotho, the maid (who spins the threads of life), Lachesis, the mother (who measures the threads) and Atropos, the crone (who cuts the thread upon death). They govern the destinies of all mortals who are marked by the Portal of Fate — namely, every Player Character. Lisaera also takes on the form of the maiden, mother and crone as she wishes (though she is referencing the fae of the Moondancers rather than the Fates). | |

Blood Knight: The Second Circle of Elder Gods is a whole pantheon of these. Shikari is regarded as a Blood Knight even by their standards, though, prolonging fights and playing with his prey for the pleasure of it. | |

Came Back Wrong | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_b983a56b | comment |
Came Back Wrong: Orlachmar's the poster boy for this trope. A case could be made that every undead created by The Taint Came Back Wrong, considering how megalomaniacal and cruel the scientists of Project Cosmic Hope became following their exposure to it. | |

Mind Screw | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_bef696dd | comment |
Mind Screw: The formation of Estarra, which is never fully explained. Basically, Dynara and Magnora (the personifications of creation and destruction, respectively) had a tiff when Magnora devoured the son of Yudhe. Since they were both children of Yudhe too, they were filled with sorrow and teamed up to rediscover him, leaving their children (The Elder and Soulless Gods) behind to do so. This is the simple part. It's implied — though never confirmed — that Yudhe's son somehow ended up in Achaea, where he became the Unnameable Horror of lore and raped the creator Goddess Maya, creating humans. The fact that when Estarra returns, she does so with a bunch of humans in tow, supports this theory. Whatever happened, Estarra re-emerged in Lusternia as the blending of Dynara and Magnora, with all the power that implies. | |

A Nazi by Any Other Name: The Empire of Magnagora. While nominally democratic, their aristocracy consists of a Deadly Decadent Court, with backroom politics, assassinations and smear campaigns regarded as valid methods of advancement. They are highly racist towards elfen and merian, and are ideologically devoted to The Taint. Their ultimate goal is to conquer and Taint the known world and murder all merian and elfen — fantasy Nazism, through and through. | |

Continuing is Painful | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_c3d60914 | comment |
Continuing Is Painful: Dying saddles you with a hefty XP loss. Fortunately, many skills can mitigate or outright avoid death. Once you reach level 100, you become a Demigod, and XP is replaced with essence. You need to buy your neat endgame Demigod abilities with essence, and it takes an awful lot to get all the ones you want: however, you lose essence when you die, so you always need to keep a reasonable buffer up. Because if you die and lose all your essence? Booted back to level 99. Level 99 and 50%, which is a huge amount at that level. Oh, and all those neat abilities you may have bought — they won't be retained if you reach level 100 again. You have to re-buy them all. | |

The Gods Must Be Lazy | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_d19dc823 | comment |
The Gods Must Be Lazy: When the current reality is threatened via the Wheel of the Goloths, Avechna doesn't do anything since his domain is the Soulless, and Estarra does shit all because only that reality is threatened, not creation, so it's not her problem. Some of the Divine of Glomdoring, Shikari and Nocht do take the fight to Xynthin when he tries to destroy the Basin and overrun it with the Wyrd (Glomdoring's forest) but they end up being catapulted to the near future halfway through the battle allowing Xynthin to continue his plans. It flip-flops on whether Divine step in to help mortals or not. See also Heroic Sacrifice for a tragic subversion. | |

Humans Are Special: Humans start out as one of the weaker races, with no strengths and no weaknesses to speak of. However, they earn experience significantly faster than everyone else, and at level 50 they begin evolving, their eventual statistics dependant on their class. A high-level human, therefore, is good for anything. Also, they are the only race that can mate with every other race. | |

Have You Seen My God?: Many characters search for their missing Patron God; they tend to be trapped somewhere, sometimes as part of an event. | |

Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness | |

Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: How things are named in Hallifax. The Institute's real name is the Institutional Society of Hallifax for the Improvement of Temporal Knowledge. Also an instance of Fun with Acronyms, "I. S.H.I.T., K.". | |

Baleful Polymorph | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_f654419c | comment |
Baleful Polymorph: Wiccans can transform players into toads, and Gods can turn players into giant maggots if sufficiently pissed off. | |

PlayerCharacter | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_fbc074c3 | comment |
Directly referencing the Moirae of Greek mythology, no less: Clotho, the maid (who spins the threads of life), Lachesis, the mother (who measures the threads) and Atropos, the crone (who cuts the thread upon death). They govern the destinies of all mortals who are marked by the Portal of Fate — namely, every Player Character. | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_fd1f1a63 | comment |
Ridiculously Cute Critter: Furrikin. Bipedal little fuzzballs, they can look like anything from a panda bear to a raccoon to a sheep, but don't let their appearance fool you — they're smarter than humans and very fast. And not all of them are peaceful, either. Not to mention their links to the Tae'dae... | |

WellIntentionedExtremist | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: New Celest. Sure, they have some extreme attitudes, but Old Celest was blown up following the Taint, and its empty husk is now populated by the wailing, hollow-eyed ghosts of their ancestors. You can't really blame them for wanting to do likewise to Magnagora. | |

Intangible Man: Zenos the Insubstantial. Also the Vernal God/dess Vestera, who became particularly vulnerable to Zenos as a consequence. | |

Item Crafting | |
| Lusternia (Video Game) / int_ff34c05a | comment |
Item Crafting: Each player can choose from one of eight main trades, from standard MMO fare like Enchantment and Forging, to the more obscure, such as Brewmeistery and furniture making. Trademasters can submit a certain number of new designs each in-game month, meaning there's a lot of clothes and armour floating around. | |

Shown Their Work: Also lots. Amongst other things, the Highmagic skill is an extended reference to the Sephirot in Kabbalah, with each skill corresponding to a sphere thereof (e.g. Keter, Yesod, Binah). | |
