When Battleworld was formed,
Maestro united each of the realms. One day, Maestro was found mysteriously murdered. Because of this, armed conflicts erupted around the realms causing widespread war that was imminent. In a last-ditch effort, the leaders of each "Houses" gather in a secret location. These leaders consist of: •
Stark Prime, CEO of the House of Iron •
Madame Web, Master Weaver of the Spider Guild •
Skaar, Warlord of the Gamma Horde • President
Peggy Carter of the Patriot Garrison •
Stephen Strange, the
Ancient One of the Temple of Vishanti • War Thor, Warrior Queen of the Asgardian Republic •
Logan,
Shogun of the Clan of Wolverine • Queen
Shuri of Wakanda •
Deadpool Supreme of Los Mercs 4 Gold They gain late arrivals in the form of: •
Apocalypse,
Pharaoh of Pyramid X •
Viv Vision of the Ultron Network, which was seeking independence from the House of Iron prior to the story's abrupt end. • King
Groot of the Land of Groot Apocalypse states that "all of us should have a voice in this council". When the Barons start arguing, Stark Prime is revealed to be an Iron Man armor operated by Tony Stark's A.I. hologram called F.R.I.E.N.D. (short for Finite Recording Intelligence Embodiment Nanotech Defense). He states that Maestro has kept their rivalries in check as he proposes that they can shape the upcoming conflict into something that they can control as he quotes "If fighting a secret war will prevent an open one, I'm game". He then breaks the fourth wall by quoting to the viewers "Will you join me" as the other Barons look towards the viewers.
Marvel Realm of Champions: Elegy The tie-in web series
Marvel Realm of Champions: Elegy, which concluded the game, has the news reporter Anathi of Wakanda investigating the death of Maestro. When she combs Maestro's palace for clues, she is confronted by Stark Prime, Madame Web, Skaar, President Carter, Stephen Strange, War Thor, Queen Shuri, and Apocalypse. Upon noting that different items from different Houses were found at the crime scene, Anathi states that this was a
Caesar situation. Stephen Strange reveals that 8,000 Barons actually did it. Taken into the past by Stephen Strange using a spell, Anathi is shown that the Barons were originally supposed to combine their powers and apprehend Maestro. Unfortunately, Maestro was too strong for them. As a last resort, Stephen Strange arranges for a Multiversal attack by calling the Barons from other versions of Battleworld to help out. They manage to weaken Maestro, but a cosmic will tests them to see if they can be as ruthless as Maestro. They all pass. Strange Supreme and Anathi are then attacked by a celestial parasite called the Chronoserpent. Upon being dragged into Battleworld, the Chronoserpent is confronted by a version of Doctor Strange who summons
Galactus. This causes President Carter to initiate a planetary evacuation. They reach an Iron Man-type spaceship as they evacuate to the Contest of Champions. Anathi reports on the Chronoserpent to her remaining listeners stating how Chronoserpents use worlds as hosts and use hosts to grow stronger as the Chronoserpent did to Maestro. As Galactus fights the Chronoserpent, everyone evacuates Battleworld as Anathi states that it will not survive the conflict. Anathi concludes her report by stating that she will miss the world containing wizards, mutants, robots, and spider people. She also mentions that Battleworld had the best coffee and that the sunset was a patchwork of different skies of many colors. As she concludes her broadcast, Anathi hopes that her subscribers escaped from Battleworld or else they would be crushed by Galactus. ==Gameplay==
