The Fifth World:About
From The Fifth World
The Fifth World describes both the setting and the community.
The Setting
- For main article, see The Fifth World:Setting
The Fifth World setting invokes the Emergence mythology of North America, to suggest a new phase of human society following our own Fourth World, where feral cultures have survived the collapse of civilization. This open source, shared world becomes thickly populated with cultures and characters that illustrate the biocultural diversity of the post-civilized Fifth World.
