Dinghai: The Ocean Pillar unfolds in the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, an ancient mythology of gods, demons, and monstrous creatures. It is a realm scarred by catastrophic floods and the conflict between divine powers.
The player character is the Abyssal Dragon, a legendary general who once served under Emperor Yan. Stripped of his name and cast into exile, he was slain in battle, and for centuries only a fragment of his soul endured.
Through a forbidden curse, that fragment seizes the body of Yi, the godson of the flood-taming hero Yu, in the moments before death claims them both. The Abyssal Dragon walks among mortals once more, carrying centuries of unfinished business and seeking to uncover what became of Yu.
A World of Gods and Demons
The setting draws on the creatures and geography of classical mythology, where ancient gods and demons vie for power across a flood-ravaged land. The fuller shape of this world is described in The Mythic World.
