History: Lamaria

Lamaria 



Lamaria is a large continent that was split after the Eternal Darkness, separated from other lands by large seas in each direction, full of deadly sea monsters and tempest storms making travel risky. Lamaria has little contact with other lands across the sea. The lands of Lamaria have been claimed by several races over the years however it seems that the green skins, giants and beast-kin had been the races that landed here during the separation. The elves landed later and began forging an empire from the west. A civil war broke out splitting the Elven Empire and forging instead smaller kingdoms. Soon man washed up from faraway lands from the east. They landed in the east and quickly fortified the area setting up cities and harnessing resources, taking all they could.



No-one is really sure why it happened, after centuries of peace the elves united once more and took to war against man. The war waged from west to east tearing across the land pushing through orc territory to the east. Battles waged for decades from skirmishes to sieges but something happened that turned the tide of battle. A champion of the people rose up and allied with all who would fight for freedom. Many followed him and his entourage, forsaking their previous commanders, kings and chieftains. Leading his army he forced the elves into surrender and sent them back to the west. After granting lands to the people fairly the hero was bathed in a glowing light and vanished from Escarra ascending to Godhood and would be known as Brynill, The Champion. Those who followed him constructed a temple to him in the new capital of the humans, Trillion. His entourage then went in their own directions and constructed the Guilds.

For four centuries now there has been peace throughout the nations, however something dark is stirring on Lamaria. With elementals running wild and undead marching across the lands coming from the east and barrens, there is a rallying call from the guilds.
