History of We Be Spelljamming

The First Unhuman War, sometimes referred to as the Great Hunt, was a conflict between elves and many non-human humanoid races that spanned multiple crystal spheres of the Prime Material plane between the 10th and 11th centuries DR. It established the hegemony of elves and the Elven Imperial Fleet as the uncontested dominant power of the known spheres for the next 400 years. After the war, a tribe of exiled orcs reorganized and become the scro, whose search for revenge would make them the main adversaries of the elves in the Second Unhuman War.

The Second Unhuman War was a conflict between elves and the scro that spread over several crystal spheres of the Prime Material plane in the mid-14th century DR. It was a direct consequence of the events of the First Unhuman War from four centuries earlier, as the scro―originally a group of orc survivors from the first conflict―sought revenge against the elves. They referred to the war as the War of Revenge.
