The Genesis

In the beginning there was The First World and the world that would be Ellseworld was elsewhere. Not much is known of The First Place, other than it is where life began for all the peoples who reside on what is now known as Ellseworld. The first people to arrive were The Dwarves, and legend tells of a tunnel so deep in the first world that it broke the bonds of reality itself, and led to a world far away from the tunnel's origin. These dwarves laid the foundation for Ellseworld, but it was a barren and harsh world, devoid of any life on the surface. These dwarves only survived through the fortunate existence of green fungus that grew underground and (unbeknownst to them) was only edible to those with dwarven constitution.

Next came the Elves and Dragons who by some cosmic accident (or intent) arrived in the midst of a great and terrible magical war. The dwarves wanted no part in this; which the dragons appreciated and the elves were bitter about. A truce was held while they could figure out where this magical calamity had brought them. Eventually, when they could not figure out a safe way back to the first world the three factions decided to make the best of the situation. They used their combined powers to craft this relatively barren new world into one akin to the world they had all left behind.

The first dragon king Mercerion Myzark, the twin elf lords Eldrad and Elleria and the dwarf Technomancer Barzult Uar’Vold came together, and through many years and much research discovered the Olde Magiks - a power so great that they knew it could do what they wished, but that it would also consume them all if used. Just as planned their imagination was manifested into reality; anything and everything they imagined was spawned into the world, but the Olde Magik was not meant for mortals to use. They lost control. Everything became heightened or exaggerated versions of the things they wished for, as well as the things they did not. New creatures sprung up as the Olde Magik struggled to comprehend the 4 separate minds all creating different things and merged some while separating others. The result was a world charged with magical energy, burgeoning with new life and 4 piles of dust that was once this world’s creators.
