Elidoris the Beginning

Many ages ago the creator of life, CoiaOntar,the Almighty Creator, gave birth to his godlings, these are the many many lesser gods of the universe. Of these lesser gods many were good natured, many were not, and these two alignments constantly bickered as siblings always do. However these godlings eventually began to bicker over their Father's later Creations, the mortals, using them as pawns in their many games of rivalry between each other.

CoiaOntar loved the creations of the material plane most of all his other creations, the sun and moon with their stars, plants and animals, the elves and dwarves, and finally the mortal men the latest of his creations. These mortal races and creatures and even some of the lesser spirits both good and evil in nature revered the godlings for their many different aspects.

However there was one godling that loved CoiaOntar with all his soul, and mourned the petty bickering that caused his siblings trivial wars of rivalry. Eli, revered amongst many of the high elves for his reverence of natural life, devised a way to prevent the other gods from accessing the Material plane and thus protecting it and all its life from the affairs of the gods. It was prophesied that he planned this 'conception' by way of the Elves, by far the most knowledgeable and understanding of the mortal races. The Queen of the Elven Lands of Elidoris, gave birth to a male child and named him Zardra. Zadra erected a monument to Eli, called Stonehenge. This monument was actually a gateway to the other ordly planes and prevented the warring godlings access to the material plane of men. The prophecy was fulfilled!

Elidoris and the mortal plane entered an age of prosperity. Eli came to be known as the protector of life, forever preventing further tribulation placed on the mortal plane by the trivial godlings, Elidoris grew and thrived for ages as did the lands of men, elves and dwarves.

Occasionally there were other supernatural battles fought upon one of the many other planes of the universe, where the godlings fought amongst themselves, gaining influence and control over the mortal realm. For centuries, eons even these battles continued, rivals for supremacy with supernatural armies going unknown to most on the mortal plane. Eli himself or even at times his brother Metatron, the justice giver, often engaged with their brother Tak' rik, the godling of deception, when he would go too far in his attempts to influence the mortals. At one point this rivalry spilled over into the mortal realm and a demon host that caused unspeakable destruction in the world of men plagued the lands of Elidoris. Though this wicked host was defeated the cost it left behind was high, the majority of the elves did not survive this some of those who did left the lands for refuge with the good aligned godlings. Tak'rik returned to the abyssal plane to gather his might once more as this was always the cycle of things Elidoris though scarred healed in yet another age of peace the once native Elven lands were once agin growing and being populated by various other races.

After many ages of this ongoing supernatural warfare, there was yet another godling, the golding Dephn, whom also had found a way past Eli's protection. The goddess of vengeance she was most wicked indeed. She found a way to enter the mortal plane herself, manifested by way of meteor, and methodically manipulated men into eradicating nearly every magical user over many lands to locate her brethren Eli. It is for this reason that wizards and mages have become less and less tolerated in the world of men, and are the rare case now instead of a majority. This was the first direct attack of vengeance upon the mortal races by any godling in millennia. And it was at this time that Eli revealed his fulfilled prophesy. Zardra the elf king whom The Lands of Elidoris had thrived under for so many hundreds of centuries was in fact Eli.

Dephn was thought to have been defeated by Eli though at the cost of his existence on this the mortal plane. Zardra died, Eli vanished and the lands of Elidoris were left in the hands of a boy king and his two siblings and the few remaining elven elders as his advisors.

Though of course as only the wisest of the scholars now know, only one can truly defeat the godlings, CoiaOntar. Both Dephn and Eli had returned again to other planes of reality where they continued to bicker like the children CoiaOntar knew them to be. The mortal races of Elidoris and even its outer reaches, pray and many even plot each taking sides in this battle between good and evil godlings, ignorant of their abuse as pawns in the Wars of Rivalry.

All the while in the mortal realm:

Elidoris goes through massive changes as the human boy is preparing to take the throne upon his sixteenth birthday. As expected growing turmoil over the fact that a human has been left to rein over the once native elven kingdom has sprouted and even as we speak a form of revolt could be seen looming in the distance. A council of regents was formed to take power until their king’s birthday but with the looming power struggle and civil unrest it wouldn’t be a huge surprise if this council seized power.

Deep within legend, the power struggle over greed by men grew further as rumours arise of a key, a key of unimaginable possibilities that not only could give you, the holder, the power of the gods in your hands but allow entrance into the immortal planes! Many have searched for this artefact and many more have died in keeping its secrets! Will men be able to seize the key and protect it from the goldings or will it and their greed corrupt them?

In a land where immortals reign, wizards reside, and heroes are born; imagine the impossible!

Happy Adventuring!
