Background

When Mallus, the World-That-Was met its tragic demise at the hands of Archaeon the Everchosen and the unrelenting hoards of Chaos, all was destroyed... or so it was thought. Through the endless scheming of the Changeling- the agent of Tzeentch enacted his Ultimate Prank.

Tzeentch is gonna love this one!

Space. Time. The barriers between dimensions. All collapsed on one another, as the Changeling sundered the fabric of reality in two.

In this new reality the fragments of Mallus (still containing inhabitants of the old world) were cast into the 41st millennium. In some cases these fragments would find themselves transposed onto worlds, moons, and occasionally even warships across the galaxy. Other times, the massive chunks of land would fall into the gravitational well of planetary bodies, eventually crashing down in a brilliant hail of meteorites.

Few inhabitants of the World-That-Was survived such violent firestorms (though perhaps unsurprisingly, Orcs didn't seem to fare too badly)

The races of Mallus fought bitter wars against their new neighbors as they learned to grow accustomed to their new situation. The Wood Elves sought new sanctuaries, while Lizardmen sought to re-connect with their distant kin. Skaven generally just had an all-around good time.

In the grimdark future of the 41 millennium... Skryre technology continues to fail at an alarming rate.
