In the beginning, the world of Varigarn was a place of hope and growth, the Five Elder Gods created the elder races of Elves, Dwarves and Gnomes, who all living in small tribes and everything was good. Each race grew and expanding from the homes around the world. Over time they experiment with the using magic, developing both Divine (from the 5 Gods) and Arcane abilities. It was a time of peace there was plenty of land for all 3 races to expand in their own ways and at they own time.   Thousands of years after the Elder Gods created Varigarn and those original races, a small group of refugees arrived from the mists, who called themselves Humans, lead by their own Gods, called Braka and Faya, their arrived fleeing something on they own world, and only a very small group survived the flight, thanks to gods, who spoke to the 5 Gods of Varigarn and arranged for Humans to be allowed to settle and stay learning the ways of this new home for them all.   Again, after thousands of years, another race arrived on the world, this time they didn't come peacefully or requesting the help of the 5. They came in warlike fashion in boats and with blood in their eyes and cruel blood sacrifices to their dark gods. These creatures were tall and muscle humanoids with skin colours of blues, greens and reds. with large tusks. While many believed them to be sub intelligent creatures with no ability to learn or do anything beyond fight and raid. It was soon discovered there was almost a hivemind like ability with the more orcs in an area the smarter they all became. And either in small numbers they were cunning enough to be a danger to all. In the end the older races managed to put up enough defences that while the Orcs were some trouble to all they were contain in majority of places, and either a few started to settle near the older races seeming to turn from their barbaric practises of old, many believe this was caused by one or all the gods working in union to reduce the dangers to the older races.   Then a 1000 years ago, the flood happened and the world was put back to the "The Time of No light" as the gnomes called it, the ice caps melted and the world flooded, kill hundreds of thousands of people, flooding thousands of square miles of lands and many hundreds of cities. Those that survived were forever changed and it was a fight for survival for those that were left.   Now a thousand years on the world is stable, and moving forward and progress is being made by all to learn and expand. This is the time to make history both new and to dig up the lost knowledge of old. Many places exist that were on the edges of the flooding that were abandon but not destroyed.
