Dafidius has been the spiritual leader of Dafitopiapolis and its related nations for centuries. He was born as the son of an elf and a human; however, as he was born, the magical power of the ancient cities of Pseudopolis (this city has no relation to the Pseudopolis of the Discowrld Series) and Phasriopolis entered his body.
Dafidius was founder of the Glorious Empiret, on a moon that coincidentally is called earth by its Low-Gorithian speaking inhabitants, but bares no relation to the planet earth in our multiverse that orbits the sun. This was in an altogether different multiverse.
The moon earth is far larger than our planet earth; about the size of Jupiter. It is acutally a formed from a large chunk of rock spurted from a gigantic super-volcano on the planet that it orbits. The large chunk of rock was full of air and other gases, to the extent that the moon actually has very little gravitational pull for its size. It is infact slightly less than earth. It should be noted that magnets are of little navigational use on this planet, for there is no single centralised metallic core of any sort.
This multiverse appears to have had a chaotic creation, caused when some devoius time-travelling deities sent the universe of the future back into the past, to the creation. The multiverse is therefore caught in an endless timeloop, but none of the mortals are aware of this.
Originally, the laws of physics that governed this multiverse were unstable, and constantly changing. Therefore the Deities appeared and organised the laws of the universe. The Gods inhabited a moon known as Pseudos, which orbits both Earth and the planet that Earth orbits in a complex pattern vaguely similar to a figure of eight.
According to vague rumours, there are a powerful elite of beings who control the very laws of existence itself and the Deities. These are known as the 'Programma', although as these beings have no existence within the space-time of the universe and consist of no matter or energy, there are debates as to whether it is philosophically meaningful to say they 'exist' at all.
The universe is one of four in the multiverse. Each of the unvierses is absolutely paralell (the universes are entirely deterministic. While quantum theory does still apply to this universe, it does so in a deterministic way.), however each operates by a different one of the four sacred energies, magical, spiritual, physical and anti-spiritual. All universes contain all of these energies; howver, the energies have different effects in different universe.
For example, physical energy in the physical universe acts as magical energy in the magical universe. This limits the transport that occurs between universes, because a being made of physical matter in our universe would turn into an explosion of magical energy in the magical univwerse, whereas an angel of spiritual energy in our universe would turn into an eruption of anti-spiritual energy in the magical universe.
