Deities of Spyre

# The Dawn Age

The deities of Spyre are powerful extradimensional beings who arose from the primordial creation and brought forth mortal beings into the realm of Spyre. They soon entered into war with the Primordials, a race of elemental titans who were older than even the Gods themselves. This was became known as The Dawn War. During this war the Gods split into two factions, the Prime Deities and the Betrayer Gods, Gods who during the Dawn War who fractured by their own loses turned to madness and darkness. After the destruction of the Primordials, the Prime Deities sealed away the Betrayer Gods beyond the Prime Material Plane and were content to rule from the Heavens, interceding in mortal affairs where they may. To help protect their creations, the gods bestowed upon mortal beings arcane magic.

# The Razing

Laetas the Pridesoul, youngest of the gods had one wish, to experience what it was like to be mortal. So he descended from the heavens and was born, and later died, a mortal being. Laetas death though caused a rift and a surge of magic through the universe, giving the Betrayer Gods the moment needed to escape back to the Prime Material Plane, reigniting the war between the two factions. The war ended with the destruction of Tharizdun, The Shattered Oblivion, with the grand weapon the Song of Echoes built by ----. The gods realized now, after seeing the destruction they wrought on their creation, that they could never again walk on the Prime material Plain, and constructed the Veil, a powerful planer barrier that regulated travel from the extraplanar realms to the Prime Material Realm and prohibited the Gods from returning to Spyre.
