The Backstory into the World of Glypharia

Glypharia has had a troubled past. A young man named Vilicus began experimenting on the DNA of the Caros, the people of Glypharia. No one was able to do this until Vilicus discovered a way using Glyphs. Glyphs are special stones mined from each of the five moons orbiting Glypharia, and each type of Glyph represents each moon.

In order to further his research, Vilicus founded an organization called Glyph, named after the tool used for his malicious experiments. Slowly, by expanding Glyph, Vilicus was able to gain control of Glypharia and its five moons. With his increased resources, Vilicus discovered a way to prolong his life, consolidating his control over Glypharia.

After 666 years of brutal torment and experimentation, the Caros began to fight back against Vilicus. By this time, each of the five moons had become inhabited by five specific races created by Vilicus, characteristic of the glyphs from that planet. Each race was originally a ruling faction on Glypharia, but because they didn't side with Vilicus he turned them into something new.

Edit: Added a new line at the very end.
