Realmswar

Year 1-2: Seeds of Discord

The first two years of the Realmswar saw the subtle machinations of the masterminds. Krodea, a primordial god of jealousy and envy, sowed the seeds of discord among the deities, whispering insidious thoughts into the minds of the gods and manipulating their emotions. The Empress of Shadows, cloaked in the shadows of the Shadowfell, orchestrated covert alliances among mortals and beings of darkness. Astarion, once the king of dragons, used his influence to corrupt dragonkind, turning them against their benevolent kin.

Year 3-4: Unraveling Alliances

As the web of deception tightened, alliances among the gods crumbled. Astarion's corrupted dragons launched devastating attacks on realms, creating chaos and diverting the attention of the pantheon. Levistus, the Lord of the 9 Hells, played puppet master, manipulating mortals and demons alike to further his own sinister agenda. The Empress of Shadows continued her manipulation from the shadows, fanning the flames of distrust among mortals and gods. Krodea reveled in the chaos he had sown, watching as jealousy and envy tore apart alliances. Other gods joined in to take their own piece of the new world that was promised by Astarion, Krodea, The Empress of Shadows, Syric and Levistus.

Year 5-6: The Breaking Point

The realms reached a breaking point as conflicts escalated. Syric, the twisted god of murder, executed his malevolent plans, plunging realms into bloodshed and chaos. Levistus, unsatisfied with the chaos he had caused, sought to unseat powerful gods and claim dominion over the pantheon. Astarion, now fully committed to the cause of discord, led his corrupted dragons in an all-out assault against the divine realms. The Empress of Shadows attempted to seize control of the Feywild, pushing the pantheon to the brink of collapse.

Year 7-8: The Unraveling Veil

In the aftermath of the Breaking Point, the realms spiraled into a tumultuous period known as the Unraveling Veil. As the malevolent forces behind the Realmswar continued their relentless onslaught, the pantheon struggled to contain the unraveling threads of existence. During these harrowing years, Syric seized the opportunity to plunge the realms into further turmoil. His malevolent influence spread like a creeping shadow, turning mortals against each other in acts of unspeakable violence. The once-stable societies teetered on the brink of collapse.
Levistus harnessed the chaos of the Unraveling Veil to propagate waves of manipulation. Mortals, devils and demons alike were caught in these whispering whirlwinds, their loyalties shifted and twisted to serve the sinister agenda of Levistus. The boundaries between realms blurred as he played puppet master, positioning his pawns for the impending climactic clash.

Year 9: The Climactic Clash

The final year of the Realmswar unfolded in a cataclysmic clash of cosmic forces. The pantheon, fractured and weakened, faced the united front of the masterminds. The Empress of Shadows launched an assault on the Feywild, triggering a fierce battle against the forces of Avia and her loyal followers. Levistus orchestrated a rebellion in the Nine Hells, pitting devil against devil in a bid for ultimate power. Syric's twisted dagger dripped with the blood of betrayed gods, as he sought to claim the divine realms for himself. Astarion, now a formidable force of darkness, led his corrupted dragons in a final, devastating assault on the divine realms.
The climactic clash reached its peak as mortals, gods, and dragons fought for the fate of the cosmos. In the end, the pantheon, though battered and scarred, managed to thwart the malevolent designs of the masterminds. The Empress of Shadows, Krodea, Astarion, Levistus, and Syric were executed or banished, their plans unraveling in the face of the combined might of the remaining gods and mortals.
The aftermath of the Realmswar left the pantheon shattered, realms in ruins, and scars etched across the fabric of existence. As the cosmos sought to heal from the wounds inflicted by the masterminds, new gods emerged, offering hope and renewal to a world forever changed by the seven-year saga of cosmic turmoil.
