The New Gods: A History of the Fourth World
I need to write up a history of the world for my players in "The New Gods." I was thinking I would share what I have so far.

Part One: Creation
In the beginning there was Chaos, a swirling vortex of creative energy. Then, came life...the power of creation...the choice of being... and so the world of the old gods came to be. The Motherworld was immense in size and contained all of the possibilities of creation. Through the power of the Source and the Life Equation, anything was possible.

Part Two: War!
Even with all of creation at their command, there were those of the old gods who craved more. They craved even more power, the power to impose their will upon others, the power of Anti-life. They stole away that power and with it the world took it's first step towards destruction. A war broke out. Dragons and titanic war machines clashed across the world. The noble perished, locked in battle with an incalculable evil. The final moment came with the fatal release of an indescribable power which tore the home of the old gods asunder and filled the universe with the blinding flash of its destruction.

Part Three: Rebirth
The world of the old gods perished and two new worlds were left in its place: bright New Genesis and her dark sister world Apokolips. Eventually life returned to these planets and a race of new gods rose up.
