Avaleen is a world of ancient power, mysticism, and strife, shaped by primordial forces and influenced by an otherworldly pantheon of gods. It is a land where time, space, and fate are intertwined, and the echoes of the past can be felt in every corner of the world. Avaleen is a world of high fantasy, where mortals, gods, and primal creatures exist in a delicate balance. One that is constantly challenged by the will of both divine and natural forces.A planet slightly larger than ours, orbiting a sun closer to the center of the galaxy than any life has a business to be. Avaleen, with its three moons, five continents and two poles, is a bristling, vibrant world filled with stories, conflict, love, hate, gods, monsters and everything in between.
History of Avaleen
As with all worlds, history is dense, overlapping, confusing, and chaotic with so many things happening at the same time. For the current setting of the book The Rogue Angel I have created this timeline which focuses mainly on the continents of Oliria and Khorun in relation to our current set of heroes:Timeline The Oliria Chronicles takes place at the cusp of the apocalypse. The event instigated by Alexandre Kollisi, the supreme general of the Illevan Insurrection, sets society back from advanced to medieval.
The Stirring - The Creation Myth of Avaleen
Avaleen is a world born of creation, destruction, and rebirth—an ever-changing dance of the elements, where the echoes of the Primordial Titans can still be felt in the very earth beneath your feet.In the modern age of Avaleen, the world is a place where the echoes of the Titans still resonate. Some regions are wild and untamed, filled with ancient ruins and monstrous creatures that remind the world of the power of the Primordial Titans. Yet, civilization has flourished under the guidance of the pantheon of gods, and their worship and philosophy have shaped the laws of magic, nature, and the flow of time.
The ancient struggle between the Titans and the alien gods has never truly been resolved, though the Titans have fallen into slumber, locked away in their elemental planes. Some are still venerated as primal forces by certain factions. Others see the gods as their true patrons, and the struggle for dominance between the two groups of cosmic beings continues in the undercurrents of Avaleen's history.
In the hearts of Avaleen’s people, however, the fate of the world remains unwritten. Will the Titans one day awaken to reclaim what was once theirs, or will the deities continue to shape the world according to their vision? Only time will tell.

Three moons circle this world. Gio, an inhabited moon that's always present in the sky with its faint dust rings. It's close enough to almost always be full as seen from the surface, though it is more or less clear. Luna is an angry blue pearl that flashes now and then when in either full or black mode. To be born under these flashes is considered good fortune and those children are often celebrated. The third moon, Amartis, wasn't discovered until much later, as its massive orbit only makes it appear in the sky every eight months.Gio

Avaleen’s world is one of mysticism, ancient power, and divine conflict. The legacy of the Primordial Titans still lingers in the form of powerful artifacts, ruined cities, and strange anomalies that warp reality. The gods, though powerful, are not all-knowing nor all of them benevolent, and their motives are often obscure, leaving their followers to grapple with their true will. Avaleen is a world of mystery, where knowledge is power, and those who uncover its deepest secrets may reshape the world - or destroy it. It is a land of ancient wisdom, untapped magic, and a tense, ever-shifting balance between the divine and the mortal. The fate of Avaleen is uncertain, and those who walk its surface are bound to shape its future - or fall to the forces beyond their understanding.
