he history of Eooma is one of segregation
and conflict. Once, the people of the continent were one race of
similar appearances, but over time, changes came about, changes that could
not be ignored or dismissed.
hese changes marked history passing,
and brought about strife and separation. Ultimately, the common features
began to vary, and these variations grew to commonality among groups.
These groups were at first one Community, living and surviving the threat
of the Great Dragons as a whole.
ut, soon, hardship and leadership
began to wear on groups, and they left the Community. Ultimately,
the people came together again, but this time to the sound of clashing
steele and the screams of the dying.
he War brought about the end of
an Age, and the birth of new races. New races of twisted form and
mind, borne of the races of olde.

and eventually tunneling into the mountains, earning them this name from
the Great Dragons.
he War brought rise to other beings,
