BRAVE NEW WORLD BLOCKBACKGROUND:
Aalistair, Morwen, Baal, Lyn and Abel were brothers that lived in Dominaria. Not in the common sense of the world, of course, but ever since they were little, they learned the hard way that in the Asgard orphanage, you either clinged together, or you'd be done for in no time.
Asgard had that name due to old legends, being a place where Gods lived, and that's exactly what they tried to do there: erect new Gods. Using phyrexian technology and experimenting with mana, they infused and exposed children to absurdly large amounts of
raw mana, harnessing it as they went, trying to create new, powerful superbeings, that might some day defy the Planeswalkers and close the Planar Rifts for good, protecting Dominaria forever. Of couse, most of them didn't make it through the early stages, and
thos who did make it ended up severely changed, bitter, empty, lonely.
The five, talented as they were, made it through the whole training with ease, and were supposed to be the first batch of man-made Gods to be unleashed upon Dominaria, soon enough. However, a group of powerful Planeswalkers
discovered their plan and launched a surprise attack on the facility, blowing it to smithereens. However, due to the amount of
raw mana and the concentrated power of the beings that inhabited the place, the explosion unleashed so much energy that it opened a Planar Rift, but one that had never been seen beofre, that led to a new place.
That's where the five brothers woke up, not knowing exactly where they were or how to come back. They searched for a long time, but found absolutely nothing, for the world was completely empty of life. However, it was not empty of mana, and they soon came to realize that the mana reacted to them, it let them create matter out of thin air! And just like that, their "prophecy", their "destiny", had been fulfilled: they were, in every sense of the word, Gods. They did not age and they were omnipotent!
They created a whole new world, from landscapes to living beings, but soon arguments started to arise, for each of them thought their way of seeing things was the best one, and that would keep their precious new world, their sanctuary, safe.
As time passed, as centuries passed, those arguments escalated tofights, which escalated to grudges, and just like that, after a long time, they went their separate ways. However, they were still concerned with protecting their sanctuary, so each of them started experimenting with mana, creating races of intelligent beings to worship and serve them, so that they might march upon their brothers' lands and conquer them, becoming the ONLY God in that world.
