The History Of The Universe

There exist 100 universes, Tentrallon is a mind that is pure, it bypasses gender and is believed to be the creator of all creators, it is neither good nor evil.
Tentrallon awoke long enough to create universes and these strange things called stars, these stars light the darkness of space within each universe.
Some of these stars form minds, they are called gods, these stars with minds realize all truth, they learn they have the power to create and so they do.

After many creations the gods decided to attempt to create their own powerful star.
This star was named Velkoe, all the power the gods could put into this new creation they did.
Velkoe came to be in a universe not claimed by any other god. Velkoe called this universe "Kortesh", within Kortesh he created many things but the first life forms would emerge on a planet named "Grey Horn".

Other stars would form minds in this new universe, the first was an evil one named Kankir(Kan-Kir), Kankir wished to start a war among the life forms Velkoe had created. Velkoe was forced to rest after the creation of life, gods can be forced to rest up to ten thousand years. This would mean Kankir would go unchecked.

Grey Horn would advance and last hundreds of thousands of years.
The people of this planet advanced to the point that space travel at least in short distances was easy.
Humans were the dominate race of this planet, some had left the planet taking over smaller planets, these groups turned on Grey Horn and a war started that would end life on the planet and all surrounding life. Of course Kankir is credited as being the cause of this war. Kankir used all his power to achieve breaking down the safeguards Velkoe had placed upon the people of Grey Horn, he would go on to rest like Velkoe.

Grey Horn was blown to pieces, one major piece survived, sent drifting a hundred years away. This piece would become to be known as "The Planet Skull Horn".

The next star to become a god in Kortesh was Lazura a female goddess, she would wonder the universe in search of a partner. She discovered the third god of this universe, another female goddess named Nartia. They were playful and had no interest in creation, they would give birth to two new male gods, one named Tarnist and one named Keist.

After giving birth to these two new male gods, they encountered an evil god Named Garmish, who is believed to be the offspring of Kankir. Garmish slayed the two female gods, during the battle they sent their sons to a special realms only gods can exist in called Sirkia, no evil gods can enter this special realm.

It is believed the first born male god is the one created life on Skull Horn.·····HHfVLZJy

The History Of The Planet Skull Horn

Birth Of A Planet -
The first people's writing claim they had existed a little over 2000 years. Then the world changed(grew) and wiped out those people(as it is believed) 587 years passed before a new intelligent race started recording history.

Years 2400 - 2439
The world faces slow development and a rush into the dark ages after along brutal stone age. The dark age brings with it a bunch of worshiped animal gods, this age lasted far longer then it should have. During the human dark age, elves stepped in and helped either side in human conflicts, prolonging the conflicts and the dark age itself.

Years 2440 - 2780
Elves claim they have recorded mankind's events since the beginning and wish to acknowledge the planets history and its real gods. They offer two holy books to human race telling them to read them and decide what they believe after doing so. It was of two elvin gods Hashin and Karm, The two Elvin gods have exactly the same stories as the now known gods(Tarnist and Keist), including the world creation story.

The human population mostly dismiss the stories, the few that take it on are shunned by society. Like the Christians in Rome, these believers are tortured for sport and punished for their non belief in the animal gods of the human race.
These humans who followed this belief are wiped out for the most part, a large secret society offers revelation years later of two who were the true gods. The gods took human form cause humans are a special race. Part of the revelation is that the elves stole their stories and tried to make fake gods.

Amazingly the human race took on these two beliefs, Tarnist has always been the more popular of the two.
Of course I leave a lot gaps in this story ect, you can assume what you wish.

Years 2781 - 2958
"Time Before The World Fractured From War" -
A time during which a world government existed, this was an advanced world society.
During this time three nations formed, each one formed under a banner, based on magical energies they had discovered evolved in them -
First was magical energy.
Second was Hard energy(or physical energy).
3rd and last was Negative energy.
Kingdom Of Bane Predor(magic) - Land of the magic users(note this is a time before book magic is discovered).
Kingdom Of White Florance(hard) - Where the warriors of the gods roam.
Kingdom Grey Owl(negative) - Land of lost souls.

These kingdoms were formed due to these people not being seen as godly at all but as demons, they were hunted down and killed. These kingdoms were formed to protect these people, the moderates of the religions believed these people to be angels of a sort.

First World War -
War came to the world, the rest of society would not believe these people with these strange(as they viewed it) powers were good. They believed them to be demons and the majority of the council of the world government agreed with the majority of its society.
Due to the governments views and the society itself, the war started and destroyed many lives. This is the war that destroyed the worlds crust, breaking it into pieces, the kingdoms of these unique people crumbled, they lost the war and their lands sunk to the bottom of the newly formed ocean.

Years 2959 - 3875
Survivors restart the world, though not in a dark age, much of the worlds writing survives the war. Wars and much more go on but nothing on a national scale.
The world goes backwards for a bit before moving forward again, governments, kings, queens ect scatter the world breaking any chance of a world government forming any time soon.
During this time much is discovered -
*Year 3012 The Black Crow Guild Is formed.
*Year 3187 Coal Is Discovered.
*Year 3568 - 812 Guns, Gun Powdered, Explosives
Discovered/Invented.
*Year 3591 Plumbing Conceived.
*Year 3672 Printing Press Conceived.
*Year 3776 Oil Discovered.

Years 3876 - 3981
The Black Crows Goals -
The Black Crows aim to form a world government and bring order to all the worlds citizens, this has been their goal for hundreds of years but wars, sickness and misunderstandings have slowed this process down. During the last 100 plus years the guild has researched magical energy hot spots, they learn there are 4 major spots in the world and the magical energy found in the world seems to flow from these places.
It is believed that whomever controls these locations can control all the magic on skull horn, the guild wishes to take control of these locations, not to harm the world but to protect from those who would use this power for the wrong reasons.
Taking control of these areas would give the black crows political say world-wide and it may help them force the hands of world leaders to form a world government with the black crows.
*Year 3952 The Big Push(They See The Finishing Line) -
This is the closest the guild feels they have come over hundreds of years, they are on the edge of realizing the dream of Hamel, the names of the people who help the guild finally achieve this will exist in the history books forever.

Years 3982 - 4024
By the year 4003 The guild has taken control of the magical hot spots in a massive world war. They form a united global government called "The Spark" that view the world as cut up into states, states have some rights but do not over rule spark global law.
4011 The World Bank "The Nest" is created and now the world works off one currency system.

Years 4025 - 4150
The Spark has created a new title and position called "The Guide", this was an extreme move. The night before this was announced to the worlds 32 high-ranking spark members died by poisoning and it was blamed on an accident. A former Grey Mason named "Telick Manner" was voted in by the spark government to be "The Guide". The guide has say/control over everything, the guide has the same powers of an overall dictator.
By the year 4101 The wealthy get richer, the middle class and poor get little to nothing, a group of black crow nation members whom are related to black crow mercenaries from before the spark was formed, see this as wrong. They start a push back that leads to a civil war in the black crow nation.
*The years between 4110 - 4118 One side supports spark and the other side is against the global government, the war last 8 years but spark steps in with the help of the shadow spies(known as the shadow) and the side supporting spark wins the war.
Years between 4119 - 4122 The surviving members of the black crow nation that did not support spark go into hiding. They form a secret society and call themselves "The Black Light".

Years 4151 - 4269
Spark forced its grip upon the world and started a world wide revolt, this would lead to the largest war recorded in skull horns history. It lasted a little over a 100 year, spark was destroyed, the world once again broken further into pieces. New races and old races would emerge, some races would shrink in size while others grew.
4269 Hamel -
Founder of the "Black Crows Mercenary Guild" was given a new life in the immortal city when he passed on. At the end of this war Hamel is offered a second life on skull horn, he accepts.
The Immortal City -
This is where unique folks throughout skull horns history and future go to live after their life on skull horn comes to an end.
Much mystery surrounds this place.

Years 4270 - 4470
Two hundred years pass after the fall of spark, the world rebuilds, many years of stable peace comes with little conflict to break it. A new threat maybe on it's way, Hamel watched as is black crows faded out of the world, he begin to rebuild the black crows.
Hamel has established "The Black Crow Mercenary Guild", he focuses on a region called the "Land Of Mortaya", it seems a new threat called "The Izrela" has risen its head and Hamel wants to be there to counter them and use this as a stepping stone to forming a real world government for the people.
During this time a new group of human emerge claiming they are from a planet called Grey Horn and worship a god named Velkoe.

Years 4471 - 5000
Remaining In Memory -
The black crows never did form the world government Hamel looked to achieve but they did defeat "The Izrela". It seems he(Hamel) left the world claiming his work had only just begun, of course this means the black crows fade away once again.

"The War Of Change"
The Gods Of Magic -
War comes, the world goes into a dark period, during this time magic is used on a level that leads the planet to start releasing magic energy into space or the planet would explode if it did not do this.
-
This energy the planet released attracted far away stars, they came to Skull Horn during this war, four of them to be exact, they transformed, decreasing in size. They came crashing into the planet.
-
One broke apart into fire scorching the planet, the next broke apart into water putting the flames out but flooding the world. Two more followed, one came in as a large boulder, when it hit the surface it started an earth quake that would replenish the planet, growing new plants, trees ect to replace what the fire had destroyed. The final one came down, then it vanished, moments later the winds world wide picked up and land was physically pushed around, ending the world wide flood and changing the planet surface.

Years 5001 - 5800
A New Skull Horn Is Born -
Life must once again life picks itself up to survive, eight hundreds year have passed. The humanoid populations have come back from this chaos, "old humans" have somehow remained throughout this process.
The way magic works has changed, there are still book mages, those who can cast a spell off paper with the aid of ingredients, wands and such. Though there are also people who are born that can use magic naturally without the need of spells on paper, wands and ingredients.
People who are born with the natural ability to use magic find themselves able control two different natural elements, though they control one better then the other.
It seems these elemental controllers are broken into groups, those who specializes in controlling fire for example will be born in a place where every natural magic user born there also specializes in fire control and no other. This is true for four of the six regions of the planet, mid south and north regions are different, those born in the mid regions maybe specialized in one of two elements.
I will list regions and what elemental magic those born there specialize in(Or can specialize in) -
*North West Skull Horn
Natural magic users that specialize in the element control of water are born here.
*North East Skull Horn
Natural magic users that specialize in the element control of earth are born here.
*Mid North Skull Horn
Natural magic users that specialize in the element control of water and earth are born here.
*South West Skull Horn
Natural magic users that specialize in the element control of fire are born here.
*South East Skull Horn
Natural magic users that specialize in the element control of Air are born here.
*Mid South Skull Horn
Natural magic users that specialize in the element control of fire and air are born here.

Lariza(La-Riza) -
Again the world finds itself broken up into clans, kings, queens and governments. Though the elves hold more respect in all societies then ever before, it was a female elf named Lariza(La-Riza) that would lead all humanity out of the ashes, the survival of all people is credited to her.·····HHfVLZJy
