Funhouse Overarching

This is for the overall history of this frame of existence. Its main purposes will be to include a very few world-spanning events, and to get rid of the stupid negative numbers issue. Also, events which are not (yet) linked to a specific character/story will be thrown here to start, just so I have them down.

    Creation?
    Celestial

    When the Funhouse came to be. If anybody knows exactly how or when this happened, they aren't talking, but dedicated planar scholars put it at roughly 400 years previously.

    The Reign of Karaj Raksi
    Military action

    This is the rough period during which Karaj Raksi made his conquests and solidified The Divershplain.  He was the first mortal to successfully create a stable realm of any significance in the Funhouse, and he did so by proving (at the point of a sword) that, when well led, mortals could hang with any of the other big bads stumbling about the still-forming plane of reality.

    The Gravedigger's Opening
    Disaster / Destruction

    The Gravedigger, who soon became known and feared across the Funhouse as a terrible and powerful necromancer, makes the first public demonstration of his power (that any survivors witnessed at least) on a battlefield near the Great River Delta.

    The Bloody Purge Forms
    Founding

    The Bloody Purge was officially formed by its constituent agencies on this date, the first major, concerted effort from multiple Reflections to counter the Gravedigger, who by this point had ravaged across several different reflections in several years of intermittent destruction and magic.

    Lether's Rise (1-shot)
    Celestial

    The events which occurred the night that Lether made his first moves in the city of Korel, as depicted through the original Rise of Lether one-shot.

    The Gravedigger's Fall
    Military action

    The Bloody Purge was finally victorious over the Gravedigger in a rather climactic battle, I'm sure. Losses were heavy, and sponsoring dieties were weakened by ensuring the sheer number of corpses did not immediately raise themselves after the fact due to all of the leftover metaphysical disturbance.

    A Riot in the City in Flux
    Military action

    The day when a group of misfit strangers from a jail got hired to navigate a riot in The City in Flux to retrieve the daughter of an important diplomat.

    Lether's Rise: Completion
    Revolution

    On this date Lether, Lord of Golden Light became the official divine sponsor of the city of Korel, upon which foundation he was able to quickly found an empire.  This was after the conclusion of a year-long campaign of subterfuge, and a shocking outbreak of cult activity and infernal summonnings in said city, which conveniently ended directly after he was proclaimed as such.

    The Gale Returns
    Population Migration / Travel

    The tattered remnants of The Gale, victorious after long last, begin to return to their homes across the Divershplain.  Although this was a gradual process, as they originated from many different places, the official date is pegged as the day that the surviving Whispering Ones returned to their citadel in Korel.
