Ereban, The Void Citadel

About

A project started in late 2020 by Kaiyn. The build features several structures based around the central citadel. The original building was created on the Voidcraft server (Now retired) and the schematic pasted in early September. The project began as an experiment using lore as a basis to flesh out the layout and ideas behind a build.

Lore

Ereban, The Void Citadel, is a city found within "The Void"; a world located between material planes of physical reality and the energy of consciousness. The dimension is rich in the mysterious substance known as Void Energy. This energy is the basis for powerful magics which can be harnessed to aid in the construction of buildings, summoning of entities and fuel for weapons of immense destruction. The world is inaccessible to mortals and can only be reached by beings known as Void Reavers. These beings can phase between material planes, shifting their energy and the physicality of structures around into the void itself.

Endless and powerful, The Void is home to many formless horrors whom draw on the energy emitted by the plane to cast death and destruction to anything within their grasp.

For were it not for the dimensional separation of these worlds, the material plane would surely perish.

Early Void

Kaiyn began construction of the dimensional gateway known as the Arkrimal in the early years of his life, Drawing on pocket of void energy left behind by other previously visiting, Kaiyn was able to summon forth the citadel, Ereban. Once the construction of Ereban had begun, forces from various dimensions were called to arms in an effort to overthrow The Void and declare a complete dominance of its inhabitants and resources within.

Conflict and War

Immediately upon the drawing of the void energy from the lands surrounding Ereban, The void horrors began to retaliate, Fearing they would lose their endless pools of sacred power, They launched a full scale assault on Ereban.

However, the Ereban forces anticipated this move and created several deterrents to prevent these creatures from destroying the citadel, Large charms constructed from Void energy were used to prevent the attackers from entering or destroying the gateway. With these protections in place, the Ereban military was able to construct devastating weapons. Initially planning to be used for mining projects, these weapons use Void energy to destroy any material they touch are the only weapons known to cause damage to the Void Horrors.
