Once upon a time when the seas had frozen over, and the world had slipped into chaos, an ice bridge formed from the mainlands far yonder the rolling ocean. The ice bridge linked the mainland to the island chain En Casse Regae, granting passage to those quick enough to take advantage of the opportunity. Within five years, the world warmed up again, and the ice bridge slowly faded into myth. Domestic dogs were the only animals, not native to En Casse Regae, that were capable of both surviving and adapting to the change of environment.
That all happened seven generations ago, and now memory of the mainland and the mythical ice bridge have faded from the minds of the new born generation. The breeds that once crossed the bridge have intermingled and become little more than nondescript mixes. The traces of these breeds still remain, both strong and vague, in the faces of the canine descendants.
The climate has become considerably warmer, with barely any snowfall in the winter, falling only in isolated forest regions. The islands have been divided up, taken claim by dog packs. The "mainland" is the central, and largest island, Crabclaw, of which many dogs claim origin.
The myriad regions of Regae are as unique as they are wild, and the faces that take up residence upon the islands are just as strange. The structure of life varies from cadre to cadre, from the laid back to the strict, from fighting to anarchy. But this is not a land of rainbows and sunsets; watchful eyes never stray far from their target. Danger is omnipresent...
