History Overview

This is a broad strokes re-telling of each of the 7 ages, there are specific and more detailed descriptions on their respective pages.

**Age of Creation**

It was in this very first age that all of todays world was
created, when Celestine and Acheil first sacrificed themselves to create all
that was, is and shall be.

**Age of Outsiders**

While the inner planes were first developing, the
inhabitants of the Outer Realms were already masters of their realm. In this
time they were said to have completed many thousands of Ages, and become the
strange and terrible creatures that can break a mans mind with a small glance
at their impossible and twisted forms.

**Age of Dragons**

The first true sapient beings in the inner planes were the
great and mighty dragons, birthed by the Clutch Mother herself. This Age was characterised
by the constant wars between Chromatic and Metallic dragons, as well as their
bred underlings such as Kobolds, Dragonborn, Wyverns and Half Dragons.

**Age of Ancients**

This age first came about after the last and greatest
Draconic War, and the subsequent loss of both Naki and Arel. With dragons
becoming much rarer, and younger races that overthrew them prospered. First Elves and Dwarves ruled the world, but later emerging were Orcs, Gnomes and even a small
number of Teiflings. It is here the very first civilizations clashed with wild
magic at its strongest. Monsters and terrible beasts were common, but so were
great hero’s who fought them. It was during this age that the 7 Demiurge first
emerged, the greatest mortal champions of the world who ascended to become the
most powerful spirits that ever have been. Each is stronger than an Angel of
the Valka or Pit Lord of the Byzou. It is said that many still remain in the
world, watching quietly and meddling in affiars.

**Age of Cataclysm**

Just as civilization and order began to look like it was
established and stable, a great upheaval in the Astral Plane sent shockwaves
throughout the magical field of the universe. Long sleeping leviathans and evils were awoken, great libraries of magical knowledge were lost in storms of
magic, but worst of all the 4 great Elemental Gates were de-stabilized and the 4 Elemental Planes they held in check flowed forth into the material. This Age is one of the shortest, but was characterized by
many thousands of disasters.

**Age of Walls**

After the Astral Plane calmed itself, Nimrielye herself
stepped forth and raised the great divide between East and West, creating the
modern world we know today. Characterised by weaker and calmer magic, as well
as a great re-birth of civilization and order, many feel this is the safest age
to live in by far. Old magic still holds sway however, if it was bound to an artifact or spellbook the powerful and wild magic can still be brought forth.

**Age of Apocalypse**

The 7th and final age, which began with the re-discovery of Rune Magic, and the subsequent draining of the astral plane that followed. Soon the end of everything was heralded by the coming of the Void, a cosmic entity beyond anything ever seen before. The Void seeks nothing but the end to everything and sent the heavens falling to earth, nearly destroying all life in one fell blow. The last bastion of existence in this dark age is the massive kingdom sized city of Fortunes Landing (II), formerly the palace of the gods before it fell to earth.
