History of the World

The ongoing history of the world as we know it.

Prehistory

A muddled era before civilizations gained a true foothold.

  • From The Dawn of Time
    In The Beginning
    Era beginning/end

    Massive beasts and ravenous plant life made the world an inhospitable place for burgeoning civilizations.

  • The Great Plague
    Devastation of the Food Chain
    Plague / Epidemic

    A plague devastated many species of small animals, knocking vital links out of the food chain and sickening the people who survived by hunting them.

  • Desperate Times
    A Turning Point
    Revolution

    Desperate hunters banded together to fell gargantuan monsters. The large game helped struggling folk grow strong, and enabled fledgling civilizations to gain a foothold.

  • The First Guilds
    The Dawn of Adventuring
    Founding

    Hunters form guilds based on different approaches to hunting monsters, and become the defensive backbone of many settlements. Growing settlements become secure enough with guild assistance to begin cultivating land and practicing animal husbandry like never before.
