History of The Realm of Milnir

Dragonkind battles itself, with the Chromatics and the Metallics seeking different objectives. In this conflict, most of Dragonkind becomes extinct, with only a few remaining on both sides, which go into hiding. Zauth the Greatwyrm, saddened by the carnage, vanishes to places unknown.  

Isnor's social unrest grows larger and larger until protests and conflict begin to plague the Kingdom. Eventually, a coup is led by Arel Krisphine, Sun elven leader of the druidic purity front, who would go on to found the Theocracy of Arvandor, which held strong druidic ideals of the purity and sanctity of nature. During this period, druidic practises became common around Elven culture, with the Head Archdruid leading the political landscape of the nation.

The Kingdom of Ironclaw is established by the Ironclaw clan, who replace the Garuhm dynasty in a long internal conflict between the two families. During their rule, many of the same values of Tol Garuhm were maintained related to mining and underground expansion. However, the Ironclaw clan prioritized living and working conditions for the Dwarven population, which can still be seen today.

Ynnkrug, wishing for more conflict, creates beings from the Frozen Wastelands to siege the Realm: The Orcs. These orcs ravage through the southern sectors of Arvandor and old Hashlan, causing conflict and death along their path. The war lasts roughly 200 years, up until orogs begin to form after deflecting from Ynnkrug's influence and being gifted knowledge by Illnis. Thanks to them assisting the elven armies in their war effort, the head warlord of the Orcish war, a fearsome warrior of Ynnkrug named Painbearer, was brought down in a bloody siege in his headquarters somewhere within the borders of the Frozen Wastelands. Peace was achieved once more, and Orogs were welcomed into Arvandorian society, as well as the rest of the Realm.

A Great War occurred between the three nations of Adar, Arvandor and Ironclaw. This conflict raged for 700 years, with no side managing to conquer the other. The Human Empire of Adar seeked to expand its territory, and so invaded the Dwarves and the Elves. The Dwarves declared war on the Elves as their kind was stealing the precious and rare metal of Mithrill from their territory. The Elves retaliated against both sides in response to being attacked.

Years after the end of The Great War, another great catastrophy struck our Realm. The Primordial Lords of the Elemental Planes struck against the Material Plane in search of expansion and territory. Fighting both the Material Plane and eachother for control, the impact this conflict had upon the Realm was devastating. The Weave was shook, and Primordial energies seeped into our own blood, creating Genasi. Once again, Lamis the Archdruid, Auth, Archmagister of Sioa and Öldrin, The Dwarven King got together to put an end to the conflict. By defeating the Primordial Lords in combat in the case of Ragnor, Lord of Fire and Zephyr, the Storm King, and reaching and gaining the trust of Nereida, the Ocean Queen and Grom, the Mountain Lord, they managed to form peace between the Realms and Unify them as well. The Primordial Lords were granted the Primordial Isles, overlooked by the Gods and their planes connected with our own through the formation of The Great Tree at the hands of Lamis. This marks the start of the Age of Progress.

After the conflicts were done, Expansion efforts overtook the Land. Many inhabited Eastern Milnir already due to the Empire's previous expansion, but with the formation of Trinity, true expansion and diversity was able to be achieved. Booming in progress, Eastern Milnir began to grow in numbers and people. However, this would be short-lived... Auth attempts to ascend to lichdom, fearing his death from old age. Lamis and Öldrin attempt to stop him, but to no avail. Lamis, before succumbing to his injuries, manages to lock Auth into the Forbidden Isle, where he resides today. Curses and evil forces spread across East Milnir, turning it almost uninhabitable.
