With three gods killed and replace, and the wounds being licked on all side, the magi have gained the upper hand for the moment as far as the celestial battles go.

History of the Realm

Before the Realm of Casin

Long ago before the land the mortals walked upon there where only two beings. The God of Order and The God of Chaos and Madness. They select countless eons locked in battle. Both men creating various creatures to fight for them. The Order would build worlds of great wealth and order only to have Chaos come and destroy all his works. One day Order and Madness met on the feild if battle. As the fought thousands of years would pass between blows, and eventually the two gods destroyed each other. However their very being was written into the world their fight had crafted. In the final blow three things where created.

The Lord of Order created the race of the gods. Each with his power of creation. Creatures of immortal decent. If their physical body is destroyed they are awoken again in their bed, no loss of life to be had and memory of the last seconds of their life. Each god rose up and took a part of the world. Haizeuws took up the sky's. adding stars and constipation a for great king and warriors and wiseman. The sun rose and set on his command. Warmersis stood with firey eyes forward and black hand outstretched to grab control of his fathers own great enemies. At any Great War or any moment of strife and chaos. He would appear as a mountain of armor and blades, carving his path through the mortals till his death. It was an honor to die at his hands, and a feat to kill him in the field. Hemell awoke holding his fathers skeen and plan for the world. It read the lives for every creature, the future of the world, the great events and if he read far enough he was sure he would find the end. He donned the mantle of the God of Death as well as Oracles. Braithe was a beautiful blonde woman who awoke at the same time the mortal race appeared in the beginning. She is the god of life and humans themselves. Equis was born in the water, able to adapt his form to any place in the oceans and seas. The God of the Water and Seas commands the world as far as you can smell the sea. He is the only one if the gods that is distant with his brothers, preferring solitude to company. Mythane was born in a mountain, cutting her way through the rock to reach the outside world. She became the God of the Mountains and Stone. She is often found dressed in jewels and is the best smith in the world. Passiaon is the goddess of beauty and fire. She is the goddes of women and love as well. Raiowood awoke in a tree that held her aloft. Her hair was tangle into the branches of the tree, she had the ability to speak to animals. Each ran their world, having very little to do with the mortal world.

The Lord of Madness and Chaos went the other way. He created the daemons. Mythic creatures that could adapt to changes in their life every generation. They had lords and kings rise and fall. And creatures broke off in groups to evolve in the same fashion. Races evolved and kingdoms of monsters rose and fell.

Though neither god ment to, their combined explosive power produced the mortal race in its early years.

The First Thousand Cycles

In the first thousand cycles of the world was chaotic to the untrained eye. With the gods spread to the winds the worlds system ran out of control. The mountains shifted and the daemons ran the world keeping the humans underfoot. Many human cultures have some version of there being a great savor clad in silver armor. The first two gods to find each other was Braithe and Warmersis. When she called him to help the humans from the daemons he saw no reason to help, but the ability to challenge his own skill.

While Equis has never left the sea, he was had met two of his brothers and sisters in the form of a giant turtle. First me met his brother Haizuews, who had been wondering a single island. After being a god to then the giant turtle appeared and carried him away to the mainland. To this day the island have been producing the finest warriors with a natural ability to draw on allow supernatural powers at time. Haizeuws had been carried to the mainland and began again to wonder anew. Equis Also ran into the Lady Passiaon near a volcano in the island chain Isle of Mannen.

While wondering, Haizeuws first found Mythane, and at the end of the first Cycle they began to work on The Temple of time in the desert. The finest stone temple was constructed by the magics of Mythane. The area surrounding the temple was turned into a sand storm so that no mortal could travel to The Temple of Time.

The Seconds Thousand Cycles

With The Gods coming together in increasing numbers, the world started to calm down and settle. The Humans started to form into larger and larger communities. However the Daemons still held down their power presence on the surface on the world. As they started to push back Braithe called for the gods to take up arms for the mortals. The then created the small race know as the Magi.

The magi at first where created for war. Warmersis had a hand in making most of the magis. They separated into clans and fought the war on different fronts. The humans across the world all have times in their history that they speak of monsters and kings fighting. most of the Second Thousand was fire and destruction across the land. However, in the 2743 cycle of the world, the Magi's finally pushed down the daemons to the underworld, causing a new peace that filled the worlds of the Magi and The Gods.

However the mortal realms where far from peaceful. Without the suppression of the daemons, the mortals started to rise up and fight each other. causing strife and war where ever they are free to do their own bidding.

Hmm, sure, it'll take me a few minutes to type it all out, but I'll post it here soonish.

that way we can just strike out what is not wanted as we work. The fact you have an animal head, your going to be hard pressed above ground.

First off. I'm quite interested in joining this. I have a question though. If everyone is going to be at different levels how will the combat encounters play out?

Well, the beauty of being a rakshasa is that it can change shape to take on the appearance of a regular humanoid. So it could move about society unharassed : P

true enough, but you can still screw a roll. And with that you can have kingdoms bar you. Word can spread. And a god could come to hate you. As a daemon the main god for you is Roilvn Whiro. But you will be starting underground or hidden away some how. Expect that in your bio. The daemon government is a council. All the major breeds have a seat. And while its rare to have any daemon on the surface of the world that was not from exile.
