Art Deco Movement

Lore & Background

The movement also impacted the attire and enchanted items of key figures, drawing heavily from 1920s and 30s motifs. Walls were sometimes adorned with metallic inlays, and magical light rigs utilized sharp angles to cast dramatic shadows across the landscape. While some critics argued it prioritized style over substance, proponents felt it brought a necessary maturity to the world's aesthetic identity during its mid-cycle evolution.
