Khaliz-Dorahn

(PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION)

Khaliz-Dorahn is a plane in the Multiverse. Unlike other worlds, it is not defined by a unique characteristic but rather by its history, since one of the most powerful and destructive creatures to ever live, known as the Evil One, brought it to the verge of extinction both by its own means and indirectly.

Origin
Though the exact origin of Khaliz-Dorahn is unknown even to its denizens, it is believed to have come into existence around the year 941 AR (3559 Pre Mending), and said year was eventually branded 0 KY in the Khalizor Year calendar.

Khaliz-Dorahn's geography began with a large and compact land mass that eventually began splitting until it reached its actual form.

Even though life originated in its first decade of existence, sentience life didn't evolve until around the year 400 KY, and these first sentient lifeforms where the elves. These elves developed societies and tools to build villages in which they began to live. They also developed a language now known as Ancient Khalizor (most of it is archaic, but it set the ethimological roots for Modern Khalizor).

Main Continent
The following are the original factions and races from the world, before the creation and imprisonment of the Evil One and their consequences.

The Rehisons
The first elves to exist were born in a peninsula that eventually separated from the main continent and became an island. They named the world Khaliz-Dorahn, with "Khaliz" being the Ancient Khalizor word for "home" and "Dorahn" the Ancient Khalizor word for "birth" and subsequently named their homeland Rehis-Dorahn, with "Rehis" being the Ancient Khalizor word for "origin", establishing themselves as the "originally born" to the world. They populated the entire peninsula and became harvesters, developing farms even in the dangerous marshes. For a couple of centuries, they were the only sentient race in the world.

The Danuri
However, as their population grew, the Rehisons began talking about colonizing the rest of the world. While the majority remained in Rehis-Dorahn, a substantial number of them headed north, arriving at a place they named the High Prairies. Despite the immaculate perfection of the region, they realized that said beauty required life to develop naturally, and if they settled there, the perfection would be lost. Instead, they headed west, and arrived at a place they named Danuria after "Danuur", the Ancient Khalizor word for "horizon".

In Danuria, they found a new species: humans. Though not as advanced as them, the elves discovered the humans were sentient as well. They accepted them into their society and shared their knowledge. With different resources to work with, they gave up crop farming instead developing a new economy proper to the country itself, working with wood, rocks and minerals, animal farms and more.

As time went by, humanity thrived and elves and humans began procreating together, reaching a point where only humans remained in Danuria.

The Lafterii
Not all Danuri remained in Danuria, however, since some decided to follow in the steps of their elvish predecessors and find new places. Some headed east, went past the High Prairies and found a new peninsula they named Lafterwal (after "Laft" and "Wala", the words for "progress" and "prosperity" respectively). There, they were influenced by the red and blue mana of the region and began developing magical capabilities, becoming wizards and elementalists. They chose a life of erudition and scholarship, and their magical prowess brought two new types of sentient creatures into being: the elementals they summoned and the goblins which, thanks to the new mana flow the Lafterii generated, evolved from feral creatures that lived in the volcanic regions.

The Fellors
Those Danuri who headed south instead of west came accross a pseudo-desertic region they named Fellorie (after "Fellor", "tough" or "harsh"). They chose to learn how to survive in the roughest of conditions and conquered the region, adopting more barbaric and brutal philosophies, yet remaining loyal to the other factions.
