Military: War

The Dragons would gather and wage war on the Founder Mortal Races. What would eventually start as a small war would eventually bloom into a long, bloody battle that resulted in the creation of new races, creation of artifacts, and the first real truce among the divine.


After the ununified decision to create the Dragons, the twelve divines decided that the only way to assure their existence would be war. And so, the Dragon war began. What started as a normal series of battles quickly turned into a divine arms race, as the gods pitched in by creating races of all kinds:   -Aarakocra  -Bugbear  -Centaur  -Dragonborn  -Firbolg  -Goblin  -Goliath  -Gnome  -Halfling  -Hobgoblin  -Loxodon      This is also the time where artifacts were bestowed to bless mortals and aid them in battle or might; powerful magical items that granted powerful boons, sometimes at the cost of certain powers. However, this all came to an end when Vecna, The Lord of Secrets, had enough of this squabble. He had realized this had gotten out of hand, and made his own side in the conflict. He raised both side's dead as his own army, and threatened all creation if they did not cease their destruction. A truce was formed, so that something like this would never happen between the gods again.
