    The Tearing
    Disaster / Destruction

    The Tearing (also known as the Unraveling) is the moment when the Veil that surrounds the Material Plane became so weak that the most powerful outer planar beings, the Nihilan Lords, were able to enter the Material Plane with impunity. It is uncertain what transpired, but it resulted in the Great Scar forming across the South eastern side of Munhart, and the end of the People of El-Han. It’s results allowed for an outpouring of Astral Creatures (Celestials, Fiend, Aberrations) into the Material Plane.
