Timeline

This timeline is intended to put the known events of the Gryzzlira universe in as close to chronological order as possible.
NOTE: Creation myths vary by continent, however, the current events of the Iskandera campaign make it so that it is taking priority over other creation myths.

Year(s)	Event
Unknown	Iskanderan creation myth: The Elder Gods establish themselves on a previously unmarked planetary body. This would come to be known as 'Gryzzlira'. This period is known as the Starszy Era.
Unknown	Iskanderan creation myth: The deities (both praiseworthy and blameworthy; minus the Abyssal King) arrive in the Material Plane. Seeing the chaos that the Elder Gods had placed in the area, they decided to establish a new sphere of influence here. This period is known as the First War of the Gods.
Unknown	Iskanderan creation myth: The deities defeat the Elder Gods in the First War of the Gods and begin to establish order on the Material Plane. They establish Gryzzlira with Zemlya creating the lands and nature, and Drejr creating the oceans and water cycle. Lucindra begins crafting source of light for the dark world while Eilistraee starts to establish relations between the Material Plane and the other planes of existence.
Through Eilistraee's diplomacy, she grants relative access to the Material Plane to the other planes. These planes include; the Hells, the Feywild, and Dal'Quor. At this time, Drejr begins to craft humanoids based around the appearance of angels. These entities would come to be known as 'Humans'. Sehan, on Eilistraee's behalf, negotiates the transfer of the Elven races to the Material Plane with the God-Queen of the Seelie Court and the God-King of the Unseelie Court.
Thronir takes his devout human followers and the newcomer Elves and springs the idea to create his own race of humanoids. He tries three times and creates the Dwarves, the Gnomes and the Halflings. In the same frame, Bahamut and Tiamat begin to create the draconic races, along with dragons. Zemlya goes about creating the bestial races , the first of these are the Dheama. Bane starts developing races that strive for greater dominance in the world.
Corruption begins to bleed into the Material Plane from outer planes, establishing several new races of differing origins. Asmodeus and the devils of the hells start to confer with humans, creating the first Tieflings and other semi-benevolent hell spawn. Corruption under Lolth creates a new breed of Elf, the Drow. This period is known as the Era of Founding.
Unknown	Iskanderan creation myth: The corruption seeping in from other realms, and the general negativity coming from the blameworthy deities begins a Second War of the Gods. This time, humanoids take up positions with both sides of the deific diarchy. This war nearly wipes out the humanoid races, and corrupts a great deal of them, establishing the first breeds of monsters. The lesser deities; Terum and Ilmater are created by happenstance in the aftermath of this Second War of the Gods.
During this war, a Mortal hero fells several chaotic, blameworthy entities of great power. This hero is known as the Forgotten Hero of Mortalkind.
Worship of the blameworthy deities is reduced to minimal in the aftermath of the war. Sehan takes up a position as a protector goddess, creating Borrag, Tomar and the Three Rings to safeguard Gryzzlira from outer planar threats.
=== Time of Sorrow ===
Year(s)	Event
Unknown	Iskanderan creation myth: With the blameworthy deities all but removed from the hearts and minds of the mortals, a period of regrowth and rebuilding begins. Several ancient, now forgotten, cities and kingdoms are established. This period is known as the Era of Resurgence.
Unknown	Iskanderan creation myth: Asmodeus, disguised as an angel, whispers into Drejr's ears that the night sky would look much more beautiful with a permanent smattering of water droplets in the sky. Drejr considers this and works with Sehan to create the stars. As the two paint the sky together, they begin a romance.
Lucindra, Drejr's wife, upon hearing this from Asmodeus himself witnesses the night sky and believes it to be more beautiful than her daylight. She establishes the sunset and the sunrise. Once Drejr returns from his evening with Sehan, Lucindra divorces Drejr for prioritizing the night over the day. Distraught, Drejr banishes all of the gods from the heavenly court. To which, the gods establish their own planes of existence and pocket dimensions. In his grief, Drejr creates Drejr's Edge, blocking his favorite continent, Iskandera, from the rest of the world, as if to hide his shame. In his depression, Drejr accidentally establishes the Mist season, wherein his sorrow comes in to the form of overbearing rains. Terum and Ilmater council Drejr and offer him protection and support, to which Drejr blesses them with eternal godhood and access to the Material Plane.
Drejr's final act of sorrow in the Divorce is the establishment of a the Sacred Barrier. In doing so, he accidentally creates Mystra, the Goddess of Magic. And entrusts her with the protection of secrets and esoterica.
=== Pre-Industrialization ===
Year(s) 	Event
Antiquity 	Mortalkind continues to go about their daily lives in the aftermath of the Divorce. A Time of Antiquity (sometimes called the Bronze Age) comes into fruition with the establishment of kingdoms, states, and city-states of great power and influence. Technological innovation skyrockets, and mortalkind has never prospered in such a magnificent way.
A man, whose name has been forgotten to history, is born with magical properties. His magics impress Mystra in such an unbelievable way that they begin the first divine romance. Before long, the two merge together and create Kes. With his newfound form, Kes grants the gift of magic to mortalkind. In doing so, several magocracies are established. Including Waeshryn and Hieromoth.
During Antiquity, there are several kingdoms and city-states. Waeshryn becomes a beacon of arcane magic and receives the divine blessing of Kes as their patron deity. Potoros (which started out as the city-state of Poros) becomes a beacon of strength and power, establishing itself as the largest kingdom in the world, they receive their blessing from Drejr and he becomes their patron deity. Hieromoth becomes a beacon of divinity and receives the divine blessing of Malkenna as their matron deity. Varsovia becomes a beacon of innovation and enlightenment and receives the divine blessing of Thronir as their patron deity.
The Antecendence	Mortalkind, for the first time since the Second War of the Gods, begins to question its purpose for existence. Are they truly designed to simply be worshipers of the gods? A poor experiment? Many of the mortal lands begin to rebel against the gods and refuse to see their divine light in the same way. Drejr, seeing his favored creation rebel against him, goes into a blind rage and decides to remake mortalkind into a more subservient entity. He first removes his waters from the world and then floods it, essentially creating a restart for the mortal races.
During this time, the devout city of Hieromoth resorts to requesting aid from Malkenna during this time of strife. Beseeched by her favored mortals, Malkenna drags the city of Heiromoth into her realm, the Shadowfell. In doing so, she changes them into the Shadar-kai races.
Waeshryn, prepared for a possible incursion against them, had prepared accordingly for the reset and hurled their city into the Feywild for several years while Drejr committed to his reset. Once it was safe to return, the city of Waeshryn came back to the Material Plane as a floating city above the Fertile Narrow.
During this time, the plane of Dal'Quor was slowly but surely crashing into the Material Plane, and the Quori merged with several groups of nomads to create the Kalashtar races. The Kalashtar were established and were able to hide their city from Drejr's wrath with their newfound strengths. This period is known as the Antecedence.
