Grand Archive TCG: Mortal Ambition

World Setting

Five regions come together with distinct life and culture, each shaped by its unique geography and heritage to create this world known as Sanguo. To the east lies the bustling Nanyue Region, where commerce flows through its harbors and citizens fill the streets–a metropolitan marvel of mercantilism. On the opposite end, the southern Ritai Province is a quiet mountainous region, best known for its temples and the towering Qidao Mountain, home to the esteemed Zhidian Sect. To the west, the Yunzhou Domain stretches across vast rural farmlands. Despite the predominantly agrarian lifestyle, large cities centrally link the many farm hubs, blending tradition with progress. At the heart of Sanguo lies the Jinghu Region, named aer the beautiful and massive lake at its center.

Politics, ethics, and romance will affect allegiances as the world splits into opposing factions and the countdown begins for a new ruler to be crowned before it is too late.

The Grand Archive

Now, the Champions have arrived from the Grand Archive to find and anoint the one true ruler of Sanguo. Some bear the experience of having saved other worlds, while others shoulder the burdens of their past, each with their own understandings and ideas of how to save this warring world. However, regardless of their approach, each Champion has the same goal in mind: save Sanguo and take one step closer to godhood. As they attune and adapt to their new surroundings, they will uncover the secrets of Sanguo, find new purpose, and make surprising alliances.
