    Dragons Disappear
    Disaster / Destruction

    For unknown reasons, dragons across the world begin dying in mass quantities, devastating populations globally and lead to the extinction of many individual species. All species that did not possess some form of immortality died out, while survivors that did entered retreated to essence form and hibernated. Records from this era are sparse and mainly speculation as to what occurred, but it is mainly agreed upon that a plague paired with changing gobal climates may have been the cause.

    The First Dragon Fossil Unearthed
    Discovery, Scientific

    In Germany, a fossil dating to the Jurassic Period is described and published. The find is nicknamed 'Norlands Drache' after the tale of the 'Dragon of the North' and thought to be a newly discovered lineage of early bird or form of pterosaur, being woefully incomplete and only consisting of the specimen's wings and parts of the tail.   Later re-analysis of the fossil found it to be an example of an early dragon.

    The Dragons Awaken
    Geological / environmental event

    Slowly at first, the Dragons begin to awaken from hibernation and venture into human areas. At first most of these dragons are young and feral, but more and more powerful sentient dragons awaken over the following months and begin attacking human settlements. The first attacks are thought of as hoaxes or elaborate pranks until it is too late and humankind's continued existence is already an uncertainty.

    Omnia begin to arise en mass
    Metaphysical / Paranormal event

    Omnia begin to form for the first time en mass, transformed by the chaotic magic unleashed by the dragons. Initially this is thought to be a plague among the humans held captive by the dragons, as many do not survive the process, but humans who have not had contact with them also fall ill and transform. Not well understood, many flights, the Lunar Dragonflight in particular, begin to study them.   A similar process is seen in animals, thought to be the rise of the first Gods.

  • 2214


    Hawai'i declares independence from the United States
    Political event

    Due to worsening conditions across the globe from the rise of the dragons, the Hawai'i Islands declare independence from the United States on July 4th and cite the country's past forced take over of their territory, mistreatment of native islanders, and current lack of support from attacks. Due to being so isolated and nearly all of the nation's military personnel being deployed against the dragons, the severance goes peacefully. Hawai'i begins efforts to settle their own political system shortly after and begins forging their own ties to other nations, cutting off many ties with mainland North America.

  • 2232


    The First Gods
    Metaphysical / Paranormal event

    Animals mutated by magic unleashed by the dragons during their rise begin to get revered by humans. These animals often have unusual powers, intelligence, and power not found in their ordinary kin. Although their numbers are great initially, conflict with the dragons causes many of them to be killed, and later fights over resources dwindle these numbers further.

    Splintering of the United States
    Political event

    Due to its large size and destruction caused making keeping up with dragon forces spreading across the nation difficult, the United States cracks under the pressure and different needs of its many states. Multiple states declare independence at the same time and quickly begin to form alliances with one another, fueling bitter rivalries between the regions. The eastern seaboard, although reluctant to split from the United States, maintains that they are still the same nation, even as different regions begin to operate as their own entities.   The split between the Eastern and Western states, later fueled by the great flooding of the interior, becomes the foundation of what later becomes Appalachia and Laramidia and their political spheres.   Similar political fracturing is seen throughout the world, primarily in large countries.

    Attempting to invade Arizona to force it to join the republic, California sent troops across the Mexican border. Believing that it was instead the target of the attack, Mexico retaliated with force to drive California's military back, seizing significant portions of land in the process. California abandoned the attempts to invade Arizona, instead viewing Mexico's attacks as unfounded, and began seizing land and attempting to buy out neighboring regions.   The war ended in 2631 with a mutual treaty and non-aggression act, though Mexico forged a strong alliance with Arizona following, in order to prevent further use of their land for California's expansion.

    War of the Majors
    Military: War

    The Major Gods, the god of wind, fire, earth, and water, declare war upon one another and struggle for control over the world, claiming vast swaths of land as their domains. In their warring with one another, the Major Gods cause mass destruction across their battlefields, and many are killed and replaced during the conflicts.   Lapi, The God of Earth and the Fire God move the continents, crashing them together to make their own travel easier and block access to some of the oceans from Nagi, God of Water, meanwhile Nagi and the God of Wind creat devastating storms and permanently change weather patterns across the globe. The gods' actions cause many extinctions in their wake, permanently scarring the world.   In 5892, the Yellowstone Supervolcano erupts, thought by most to be directly caused by Fire God Vega and Lapi warring over the location, both having claimed it as their own, causing the War of Black Ash.   The conflict ended due to direct intervention of Shia, the God of Death, and Mora, The God of Life, coming to an agreement that if the war continued, all life in the world may be destroyed. The Majors were threatened that if they did not come to peace, the gods of life and death would slay all of them, and never again have Major Gods.

    Life, Relocation

    Aiming to use the volcanoes on the island chain as a weapon, Fire God Vega relocated to the island chain of Hawai'i as a weapon against the other gods during the War of the Majors. On his arrival, he began to heat the volcanoes' magma chambers and pour more material into them, with intent to use the volcanoes more akin to bombs, luring the other gods to the isolated islands.   This did not come to pass, however, the volcanoes were now requiring Vega's full attention to slowly drain their magma chambers to prevent massive destruction of the islands he was beginning to call home.

    Plague / Epidemic

    A disease spread throughout many parts of the world, causing lesions, vomiting, shortness of breath, and eventual death before seemingly going away after many years of coming back on a seasonal cycle. It is unknown what disease actually caused the plague itself, as it appears to have gone extinct prior to the modern era. Primarily, Lycans and Vampires are those most affected by the disease, leading to a theory that the pathogen was likely human in origin, stemming from a common ancestor between the groups. Lycans saw a massive fall in their population and the plague is thought to have been a massive contributing factor in their eventual decline and eventual change into the modern race of Werewolves.

    With Vega's death there was a short window of time in which there was no god of fire, before Shia was able to allow Maka, God of Fire to ascend due to shi being preoccupied with battle. In this short timeframe, the dozens of volcanos across the Pacific Ocean that Vega had personally been controlling began to erupt, and once started, could not be stopped by the new fledging god.   Mount Shanai, being so close to major cities such as the City of Shanai and its suburbs, caused massive destruction with lava flows and earthquakes leveling homes, adding dozens of acres of land to the islands, and caused the island of Ni'iahu to once more rise out of the ocean as an island again. Many of the eruptions lasted weeks, continuously spewing lava and noxious gasses from the volcanos.   The death toll from the eruptions is said to be in the thousands and that an accurate count may never be collected due to just how much destruction was caused. Thousands are reported missing and among smaller islands, many fled into the oceans where it is likely they were taken out to sea by rip currents and the tides.
