New Gensis is inhabited by two species, the gods and the bugs. The bugs are the lesser life that live on the surface, they're simply evolved micro-life and the prejudice gods consider them a lesser species.

The gods however are the New Gods, though unlike those that inhabit the hellish Apokolips these dwell in the paradise known as New Genesis.

Their way of travel is through 'boom tubes' dimensional portals that lessen their gigantic stature so that they come forth in human proportions.

Beneath the surface of New Genesis is the Necropolis, a labyrinth where the Dreggs (surviving yet mindless Old Gods) reside and beneath that is the labyrinth where the Old God Sirius was imprisoned. In these labyrinths, many amazing artifacts of power are found, as they were created by the Old Gods before Urgrund.
