	'''Askis''' is a 3rd-party campaign setting for [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition]] created by Legendary Games. Characterized as a "Decopunk" setting, it takes place on the titular world, where a band of legendary adventurers known as the Celestial Heroes succeeded long ago at all but eradicating evil from the world. This ushered in a utopian age in which angelic magic and technology grew intertwined to produce a wondrous world... but also one sinking deep into boredom and complacency, and which has drawn the wrath of a powerful primordial entity devoted to the preservation of balance between Good and Evil.
