[QUOTE="fodigg, post: 4387090, member: 69518"] [b]timeline[/b] I will cross-post this from [url=http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=1055111]a thread on the WotC forums[/url]: Even just a sequence of events would be helpful: Creation: [list] [*]Reality becomes self-aware: Gods and primordials live in the astral sea and elemental chaos respectively. [*]Primordials create the world as a cycle of creation and destruction. [*]Gods stabalize the world and create races/creatures. [*]Primordials get p1ssed for super reals. War between gods and primordials. New creatures (such as elemental archons) created during war. [*]Primordials get pwnt. Gods now rule the world. [/list] Ancient times: [list] [*]Dwarves are enslaved by giants. [*]Moradin gets a clue (post victory over primordials?) and frees the dwarves. [*]Crazy god (nameless, called the "chained god") creates the Abyss and is imprisoned. [*]Asmodeus kills a god and takes over his house. [*]God who created humans dies (at the hand of Asmodeus?) [*]Lolth slums it up in the Abyss. [*]The drow, eladrin, and elves all split from each other. [/list] Less-ancient times: [list] [*]Arkhosia founded by the dragonborn. Big honkin empire. [*]Bael Turath founded by devil-worshipping humans who become the first tieflings. [*]The two empires come into contact with each other and fight. [*]The two empires are destoyed in the fighting. [/list] Recent history: [list] [*]Human empire of Nerath is good. [*]Human empire of Nerath is dead. [*]Points of Light are all that remains of Nerath. [/list] Note: When I wrote this, it was off the top of my head. This would need to be checked out for errors, omissions, and should probably be changed to more formal language. [/QUOTE]
