1Characters appearing in the CollectibleCardGame of ''Anime/CardfightVanguard'', which is set on "an Earth-like planet" known as Cray.

3The anime and the flavour text of the cards depict an ongoing storyline unfolding on the surface of the Planet Cray:
4
5* Booster Sets 1-5 introduce the various Clans, and center upon a civil war unfolding between the Royal Paladins and the dissenting Shadow Paladins as they struggle for control over a unified Cray army.
6* Booster Sets 6-9 continue the storyline as the leaders of the Royal Paladins, Shadow Paladins and Kagero clans are sealed away by a mysterious dark force, scattering the unified army and prompting new Clans to emerge and fill the power vacuum. The most prominent of these new Clans are the Gold Paladins, a youthful new band of heroes who must find and retrieve the Seven Sacred Beast Armours in order to break the seal and rescue their comrades.
7* Booster Sets 10-15 concern the invasion of an extraterrestrial army known as "Link Joker", who seek to conquer and destroy the Planet Cray. This forces the various clans of Cray to band together to fight this new threat, and even unseal previously forbidden powers.
8* Booster Sets 16-17 focuses upon a mysterious temporal anomaly that has [[RetGone excised the Royal Paladin "Blaster Blade" from history]]. As a pre-Civil-War Blaster Blade forms the "Seekers" to discover the truth behind an ominous prophecy, the forces of Cray in the modified present set out to discover the secrets lying within their missing memories.
9* G Booster Sets 1-4 document the continuing effects of the "Space-Time Overlap Phenomenon", which is pulling mutually-exclusive Units from different timelines into a singular present and threatening the power balance between the nations of Planet Cray. Amidst this turmoil, two new powers have emerged: "Stride", the ability to summon Units from beyond the limits of time and space; and "Gear Chronicle", a mysterious new Clan with [[TimeMaster the power to manipulate time]]. During this time, Claret Sword Dragon and his renegade group of Shadow Paladins have began an uprising in the United Sanctuary, tapping into forbidden forms of Stride in the process, causing Gear Chronicle to oppose them.
10* G Booster Sets 5-8 involve Bind Time Dragon's attempt to collect the Zodiac Time Beasts, a group of twelve animal-shaped Gear Chronicle units, and resurrect the ancient Gear Chronicle weapon "Demiurge".
11* G Booster Sets 9-12 revolve around units traveling from Cray to Earth, which they call "Planet E", and possessing the bodies of humans on Earth [[WillingChanneler with their permission]]. From these sets and on, the events in the lore are heavily integrated with the events in the anime, more so than in previous sets.
12* G Booster Sets 13-14 concern the actions of the Apostles, a group attempting to resurrect the "Dragon Deity of Destruction", Gyze, and awaken the Zeroth Dragons that had ravaged Cray long ago. While they act on Earth to awaken Gyze, their forces attack Cray.
