History of Raigal

Known history of Raigal reaches back about 10,000 years.

The Arrival
The Arrival period is the brief era containing the first known events which occurred in the world of Raigal and occurred roughly 10,000 years ago. The start of The Arrival is defined as the time at which Brionax, the prismatic star, fell into Raigal and brought with it the twelve Yl'Van. This era also contains events such as the first creation of mortal life, the first murder, the creation of the Aasimar, and ends with the exile of Deimos from the pantheon.

The Age of Makers
After Deimos was exiled from the pantheon for his crimes against mortality, the Yl'van freely walked the land of Raigal alongside their slowly flourishing human and aasimar creations, bestowing additional gifts such as animals to hunt and plants to eat. In their travels, subsets of the Yl'van experimented and created additional mortal races such as The Dragons of Yar, Iori (wood elves), Telari (high elves), ____(Dark Elves), ____(Jungle Elves), Gnomes, Halflings, Tieflings, Golaiths, and Dwarves. As the Yl'van went about their craft, so too did their new creations. Aasimar culture began developing and the city of Mowir was founded, Humans spread throughout Raigal and began expanding on the teachings of their divinities. It was a time of new technology and new life for all beings upon Raigal, including Deimos.

It was during the Age of Makers in which Deimos spread his gospel of passion with living emissaries. Creating beasts of visceral instinct and carnal rage, monsters of the night, aberrations, fiends, and deimons of the depths. More importantly, perhaps, was that Deimos corrupted the growing seeds of elves-to be in the Mejiah Wildlands and created what would eventually become Dark elves.
