Kobold armies are being raised by dragon masters.900: An alliance of young dragons organized throughout the plains and mountains regions threaten the survival of older lone dragons. At about the same time two ancient green dragons go to war in the jungle area wiping out many lesser dragons. In response to these threats three adult blue dragons one from each region join a short lived alliance of storm dragons. 875: The storm dragon alliance falls apart but the three blues keep a lucrative trade agreement going though the use of portal rituals.800: The jungle regions blue is attacked by the southern ancient green's army. To break the sedge the other two blues send a large number of kobold troops though a portal ritual.700: The blues having reenforced each other in many battles come into a formal alliance.600: The alliance of an ancient red (mostly goliath army) and an ancient white (mostly goblin army) dragon threatens to destroy them from the mountains region. The blue dragons agree that the use of temporary portal rituals to move thousands of kobold troops is becoming to costly and decide to build a permanent solution.595: The blues agree upon building the "Ifni di Itpro" (Door of Lightning) and that they should build them in highly defendable locations even at the cost of resources. They also agree upon the addition of item creation in the ritual.590: Three forts are simultaneously finished in all three region. Their outer walls stood upon the same ground as the outer walls of modern Stormwell. The creation ritual for the Ifni di Itpro is many times longer then first anticipated and includes an unrecorded number of magic items. One kobold healer/priest recored the number in the thousands, however it is uncertain if this was the number of magic items or the number of ingredients for the items.560: The ancient white and ancient red dragons turn on each other. It is thought that this is close to when the ancient red infiltrated a kobold loyal to him into the mountain fort.520: The ritual is finish being written and all the components have been gathered. The rituals complexity required it to be written with specific persons named as the casters, and with the same race and approximate age of the participants listed. To power the Ifni di Itpro the blues had located a endless pocket of pure lightning in the elemental chaos. Even with the vast amount of preparations the ritual would still take seven days and would require that the three blue's completely memorize it. The ancient red dragon of the maintain region kills the ancient white and takes over the remainder of her army.519: The Blues agree that no more preparation is required and begin the ritual at midnight. On the forth day their armies of kobolds are heavily assaulted in the mountain region, by the ancient red's hybrid goliath, goblin and kobold army. On the last night of the ritual after it's completion but before the three blues had fully detach themselves of the power source the ancient red dragon killed the mountain blue. The loss of control caused by one of them being killed backlashed instantly killing the other blues. the red dragon renames the fort's collectively "Kepesk Algbo" (Storm Well) and takes up residence in the plains region.518: The ancient greens of the jungle region agree to leave stormwell as neutral territory in their war.499: A human and orc army ravages the southern lands of the plains region heading for Kepesk Algbo. The few living dragons in the area use this as a rallying cry to attack Kepesk Algbo. They are aided by an ancient purple in the mountain regions under-dark sending a mixed Drow and dwarf army. at Kepesk Algbo in the mountains.498: very few documents exist from the this year but most tell us the fort was now a three part city which changed rulers frequently.497: a human ruler takes control of the city and orders several events recorded including his coming to rule and the death of the ancient red dragon in his dungeon.450: a council now rules the city they call Stormwell. a cleric of bahamut writes that their are only three living dragons two greens in the jungles and a purple far underground in the mountains. The half-orc explorer Fred Ox sets out from the mountain Stormwell to be the first person to have walked from one district of stormwell to another without the aid of portals.400: Fred Ox dies in a farmhouse just two miles short of the plains Stormwell he is over 70 years old. Fred is berried in the second districts catacombs inside the plains city limits.399: A Genasi army comes close to the plains stormwell but stops and settles sixty miles away.380: A war breaks out between small orc tribes in the plains.

Lord albert Holder negotiates a treaty in which the dragonborn army would be given the cities walls of all three districts in exchange for military service. the treaty is now one of the most controversial pieces of legislation in stormwell. The area just inside the walls of Stormwell in each district is one of the most heavily populated areas of each city. It is only populated by dragonborn and boasts the largest structures in stormwell. The only exception in this treaty is the lord holders manner which is part of the plains northern wall.</blockquote>
