« For 430 years the armies of Kairos the Overlord swept across the known world, felling all those who stood against them.
How couldn’t they? Kairos’ will pales when compared to his master’s, the blasphemy known as The Demon Lord.
As the final desperate battles are fought, new recruits join the ranks of the Disfavored. Once ash settles, they will be the agents applying the brutal order the Overlord calls “Peace”.
Evil has won.
And you brought about it. »

About the system: « »Shadow of the Demon Lord® opens a door to an imaginary world held in the grip of a cosmic destroyer. Enter a land steeped in the chaos and madness unleashed by the end times, with whole realms overrun by howling herds of beastmen, warped spirits freed from the Underworld, and unspeakable horrors stirred awaken by the Demon Lord’s imminent arrival. As the Demon Lord’s shadow creeps across the world, it creates the chance for heroes to seize their destinies and villains to accomplish their despicable goals. As you play the game, you and your friends tell stories about thwarting the plots of twisted cultists, hunting down and destroying bizarre demons, exploring lost lands, investigating weird mysteries, and so much more.»
