History of Kaldra

A recorded History of the Nine Realms of Kaldra

    For untold melinia, Kaldra was ruled by primal elemental, dark ambomination, and otherwise priveval forces. This is known as "The Age of Depths" or "The Primeval Era"

  • The Age of Civilization/The Age of The First Empire
    The Rise of The Novum Auctoran
    Era beginning/end

    An ancient civilization first organized under the rule of The Novum Auctoran and fought back against the primal forces of Kaldra, known as "Those Who Came Before", they created seats of power all over the world that ensured their survival.

  • The Age of Dragons
    Diaspora of The Novum Auctoran
    Era beginning/end

    The Diaspora of The Novum Auctoran was a powerful sealing event that allowed the Novum Auctoran to leave the world. This created a vacuum of power and powerful beings as large as mountains began ruling Kaldra. This Age of Dragons spelt doom for lesser powerful beings such as humans and halflings. These creatures could run only so long from certain death as the chromatic and metallic dragons fought furiously to determine the fate of Kaldra.

  • The First Age of Wonder/The Age of the Second Empire
    The Vizar Accension
    Era beginning/end

    The Vizar appeared in Kaldra and organized the world into several territories, each with their own group of Vizar leading it. Building the Great Cities of Kaldra, organizing the races, and standing together, the Vizar wrangled the world away from the Dragons and birthed the First Age of Wonder.
