appearance, the thri-kreen possess great wisdom and insight. The current
king of Tyr welcomes them with open arms. They give no reason for the
migration.
66th King's Age (-9,548)
-Wind's Defiance
Mareet, ruler of Saragar, is visited by a time-traveler from the future. He
tells the king an appending doom to Athas before disappearing. Obsessed
with the warning, Mareet orders his most powerful psionicists to breach the
time stream and determine the nature of the warning. They are later joined
by a third psionicist.
-Desert's Slumber
The psionicists breach the time barrier and learn of the impending
Cleansing Wars, Rajaat, and defiling magic. Mareet wants to warn all of
Athas, but the psionicists disagree and take control of their leader. The
three use their formidable powers to shield Saragar from the rest of the
world. The Mind Lords are born.

125th King's Age (-5,005)
-Guthay's Reverence
After three eons of study, Rajaat emerges from the Pristine Tower to teach
magic to the Rebirth races. He teaches preserving magic openly, and
defiling magic in secret to those of "questionable" character. For the next

decides that humans have the most potential of all to suit his needs.

lizard men from the Champion, and he soon leaves the Last Sea.
-Desert's Reverence
The First Sorcerer orders the defiler Qwith to explore the workings of the
Inner Planes as a possible means of power.
-Wind's Fury

Silt Sea, though later it recedes from Waverly. The nearby city of Bodach
is spared, but becomes surrounded by silt.
-Mountain's Vengeance
The warlord Irikos, the left hand of Rajaat, sacks the city of Bodach-but
is killed at the conclusion of the battle. His sword (a creation of
Rajaat's), the Silencer, is lost for 2,000 years.
161st King's Age (-2,233)
-Ral's Fury
Infuriated at her lack of progress, Rajaat turns research of the Inner
Planes over to Qwith's subordinates. Shortly after an accident of unknown
origins opens a gate to the Inner Planes, and obsidian flows across the
land for hundreds of miles in each direction until the gate is closed by
the Seventh Tree. Thousands die in the disaster.
Those killed by obsidian rise as undead through a mysterious power from the
Inner Planes. Rajaat's servants arise as the rulers of this land, becoming
powerful thinking undead wizards and psionicists. The Dead Lands are born.
-Silt's Agitation
All life across the obsidian plain is obliterated except for the Seventh
Tree, which becomes immune to defiling magic. Soon after the undead defiler
Gretch discovers necromantic magic to replace the loss of defiling magic.
Necromancer magic is born.
162nd King's Age (-2156)
-Friend's Reverence

as Hamanu of Urik. He is given the sword the Scorcher, created by Rajaat,
to complete his task.
164th King's Age (2,002)
-Friend's Contemplation
Hamanu, replaced 4th Champion of Rajaat, kills Windreaver-the last troll of
Athas and king of his people.
-Desert Vengeance
Rkard, the last dwarven king of Kemalok, is slain by Borys of Ebe in mortal
combat-though Borys himself is gravely injured. The Champion's attendants
spirit him from the battlefield leaving his sword, the Scourge, still
buried in the dwarf's chest. Before he can retrieve the sword, Hamanu tells
Borys of Rajaat's true plans for Athas
Becoming aware that Rajaat intends to wipe out all races except the
halflings, Borys leads the Champions in a rebellion against their
master-from which they emerged victorious. Rajaat's halfling servants are
banished to the Black as punishment for siding with the War-Bringer
Despite their power, the children of Rajaat cannot destroy his mortal
remains. Instead, Gallard separates the First Sorcerer's essence from his
physical form, placing each in a separate location. Aided by the power of
the Dark Lens, Gallard creates the Hollow, where he placed Rajaat's
essence. Gallard then creates a cyst of enchanted stone called the Black
Sphere in which he places Rajaat's substance. He then hides the Black
Sphere in a location known only to him and Borys of Ebe.
Sacha and Wyan, who remained loyal to their master, attempted to breach the
cyst before it is hidden away. Their plan is discovered and they are
beheaded by Borys.
Through the use of the Dark Lens, Borys rewards the remaining Champions by
beginning their transformations into sorcerer-kings. This process links
each of them to living vortices, which allows them to grant their followers
clerical spells.
The Champions realize that Rajaat's prison will not hold. Even segmented,
Rajaat's power is supreme and he would one day be free. Hence, the
Champions once again used the Dark Lens to transform Borys into the Dragon,
whose power would keep Rajaat imprisoned for all time.
Borys's transformation causes him to become temporarily insane, beginning a
century of rampages across the land. In the confusion, two dwarven knights
named Jor'orsh and Sa'ram steal the Dark Lens. The remaining sorcerer-kings
each claim a city of Athas and barricade it from the rampaging Dragon.
-Friend's Fury
Lead by Abalach-Re of Raam, the sorcerer-kings storm Guistenal and kill
Dregoth, Ravager of Giants just before he is to become a 30th-level Dragon.
The battle destroys the city, the land, and most of its population.
Afterwards, Hamanu throws the Scorcher into the Silt Sea.
With the aid of his high templar Mon Adderath, Dregoth is returned to life
as an undead dragon king. The surviving populace is gathered soon after,
and construction of New Guistenal begins.
165th King's Age (-1,925)
-Wind's Defiance
Borys emerges from his insanity and learns Rajaat's prison is on the verge
of collapse. Soon after he collects a levy of 1,000 slaves from each
sorcerer-king, using their lifeforce to reseal the First Sorcerer's prison
on a yearly basis.
167th King's Age (-1,771)
-Ral's Agitation
In an attempt to increase her power, Sielba, Queen of Yaramuke attacks
Urik. Hamanu easily defeats her army and personally slays the
sorcerer-queen. On the heels of victory, Urik's army sacks Yaramuke and
burns the city to the ground. To appease the Dragon's wrath for killing a
sorcerer-queen, Hamanu presents Borys with a levy of Yaramuke's
riches-which pleases the beast and spares Urik.
-Silt's Defiance
Borys uses the booty gained from Yaramuke to build Ur Draxa, which becomes
the greatest city on all of Athas. At the center of the city Borys places
the Black Sphere for him and his city to protect.
-Enemy's Reverence
The sorcerer-kings call for a jihad against the druids of Athas. For the
next three centuries the blood of druids across the land stains the sands
red in what would be known as the Eradication.
168th King's Age (-1,694)
-Desert's Fury

-Friend's Defiance
The thri-kreen prophet Ka'Cha begins the first of several journeys across
the Tablelands to spread the word of peace and enlightenment to the

research, he uses the device to travel the Outer Planes of existence for

the land go into hiding for the next 1,000 years to a secret location in
the Forest Ridge.
171st King's Age (-1,463)
-Silt's Reverence
Daskinor Goblin Death slips into insanity following this year's levy, and
builds an army to slay the Dragon upon his return the following year. Borys
learns of his plot, and not needing the levy to maintain Rajaat's prison
never returns.
Keltis, Lizard Man Executioner, has an attack of conscience and denounces
being a sorcerer-king. Over the next centuries he strives to become
something more noble. Because of the actions of nearby Daskinor, Borys
never returns to Kurn and both cities become isolated from the rest of
Athas.
174th King's Age (-1,232)
-King's Contemplation
In an effort to increase his power, Kalid-Ma attempts to further his dragon
metamorphosis to a power near that of Borys of Ebe. The attempt is
successful, but his mind is destroyed in the process. The dragon that was
Kalid-Ma destroys his city of Kalidnay and begins to move into the rest of
the Tyr region. The creature is later slain by the combined efforts of
Borys of Ebe, Kalak of Tyr, and Hamanu of Urik.
With the loss of Kalidnay, the levy to keep Rajaat imprisoned becomes a
firm 1,000 slaves from the seven remaining sorcerer-kings.

-Guthay's Reverence
A powerful Druid named Tehnik creates the four artifacts known as the
Hearts of the Drake, and dies in the process.
179th King's Age (-857)

Region, disappears without a trace. Her students insist she has ventured
beyond her mastery of the Way into realms unseen by lesser beings.
183rd King's Age (-539)
-Guthay's Fury
With the aid of a wizard named Besteren, Oronis (formerly known as Keltis)
develops the preserver metamorphosis spell to counter Rajaat's vile magic.

avangion.

named Nerad, who becomes Athas's second avangion.
-Wind's Fury

before he learns to control it with a golden circlet.
-King's Defiance
An unnamed psionicist discovers the presence of the psurlons, a powerful
psionic race of worm-like creatures, on the Astral Plane. With their own
world being destroyed a millennia before, a few psurlons migrate to Athas
where the psionic nature of the world makes them potent enemies.
-Enemy's Agitation
The Scorcher is recovered from the belly of a silt horror by an
ex-gladiator named Vorr. Soon after Vorr disappears in the Valley of
Trevain.
-King's Agitation
Andropinis of Balic fails to come up with 1,000 slaves for the year's levy,
presenting the Dragon with only 900. In his anger Borys levels a portion of
the city and takes the remainder levy from among Andropinis' templars. For
the next several years the sorcerer-king of Balic does extensive slave
raids across the southern Tablelands to rebuild his slave population so
this would never happen again.
190th King's Age
-Friend's Vengeance
A templar of Urik removes the golden circlet from the head of the Obsidian
Man, which animates and kills him. The artifact is later traced through the
streets of Urik, but disappears into the desert.
-Desert's Slumber
After years of investigation into the death of Nerad, a
preserver/psionicist named Korgunard learns of Oronis of Kurn. Though
reluctant to have another death on his hands, Oronis gives him the
preserver metamorphosis spell-but does not allow him to retain a copy.
-Priest's Defiance (Free Year 1)
King Kalak of Tyr is slain by the Heartwood Spear through the combined

approaching army while wielding the Scourge of Rkard and the Belt of Kings.
Afterwards Rikus takes the Crimson Legion to sack Urik in search of the
Book of Kemalok Kings, but is defeated by Hamanu himself. The Crimson
Legion is destroyed, though a few survived. Rikus returns the Belt of Kings
to Kled, but is told to keep the Scourge.
King Andropinis pays an extra 1,000 slaves to make up for Tyr's share of
the levy.
Aided by the Veiled Alliance of Urik, Korgunard becomes Athas's third
avangion.
-Dragon's Agitation (Free Year 3)
In an effort to protect Tyr from the Dragon, Sadira seeks out the Pristine
Tower and its ancient magic. In return for her pledge to slay the Borys of
Ebe the shadow giants of the Pristine Tower transform her into the Sun
Wizard, giving her power akin to that of a sorcerer-king.
Avoiding Tyr, the Dragon attempts to take his yearly levy from the dwarven
city of Kled. In the end he is driven off by Sadira and Rikus bearing his
old sword the Scourge. During the battle Neeva gives birth to her mul son
Rkard, named for the dwarven king who battled Borys 2,000 year ago.
For the next several years King Tithian of Tyr secretly supplies the Dragon
with a levy of 1,000 slaves captured from outlying villages.
-Mountain's Fury (Free Year 4)
The ancient artifact the Psionatrix is activated by the Order, a powerful
organization of psionic purists, nullifying psionics across the Tablelands
and causing thri-kreen to be driven into an insane frenzy.
The avangion Korgunard is slain while trying to convince members of the
Order to deactivate the Psionatrix. One of the members, a halfling named
Pakk, consumes the avangion's remains.
Deep within the recesses of the Dragon's Crown, the Psionatrix is
deactivated and several members of the Order are slain. The remains of the
artifact mysteriously disappear.
-Silt's Vengeance (Free Year 6)
Lead by Queen Trinth, the Githyanki of the Astral Plane discover a way to
safely breaches the Gray and invaded Athas from the Black Spine mountains.

the portal and kill the queen. With Trinth dead, the portal collapses.
-Enemy's Slumber (Free Year 7)
The comet known as the Messenger fails to appear at the prescribe time, and
many across the Tablelands take it as a sign of a forthcoming doom.
-Ral's Reverence (Free Year 9)
Armed with information stolen from the dwarves of Kled, Tithian learns of
the location of the hidden Dark Lens-with which he can become a
sorcerer-king. Agis of Asticles catches up with him and reluctantly aids
him in his quest. After the pair retrieve the Dark Lens, Tithian kills
Agis.
-Friend's Agitation (Free Year 10)
Dregoth returns to New Guistenal from the Outer Planes with aspirations of
becoming a god. Unsure of the condition of Athas he sends his templars to
the surface to learn the state of the Tyr region, learning too late the
events that lead to the death of several fellow Champions.
Sadira kills Abalach-Re with the broken tip of the Scourge of Rkard on the
Ivory Plain. The sorcerer-queen's body is completely consumed by a black
ooze leaking from the broken tip.
Rikus of Tyr breaks the Scourge of Rkard a second time, this time in the
snout of the Dragon. The sword again issues forth a black ichor that
completely consumes Borys of Ebe.
Tithian uses the Dark Lens to free Rajaat's substance from the Black
Sphere, causing his essence to also be released from the Hollow. After
2,000 years of imprisonment the First Sorcerer is once again free. The
result of escaping his prison destroys much of Ur Draxa in a grand
explosion.
In the ruins of Ur Draxa Rajaat battles his former Champions. Rajaat
imprisons Andropinis of Balic in the Black, then grabs the Dark Lens from
Tectuktitlay of Draj and crushes the sorcerer-king's skull. The remaining
Champions scatter while Sadira steals the Dark Lens and heads for the Ring
of Fire.
Sadira of Tyr discovers that the key to Rajaat's defeat is his shadow,
which gives him substance. Using the Dark Lens, the young Rkard casts a sun
spell it magnifying its power ten-fold. The resulting brilliance
obliterates Rajaat's shadow and sends his essence back to the Hollow, while
his body is boiled away by the heat of the spell.
Having been in contact with the Dark Lens as Rkard cast his spell, Tithian
becomes mystically connected to the Black and Rajaat's elemental nature.
The result is Tithian becoming the Cerulean Storm.
Sadira tosses the Dark Lens and the Scourge into the Ring of Fire, placing
powerful wards around it so that no one can obtain the artifact and once
again free the First Sorcerer.
As Rkard's spell lights up the sky, a great earthquake rocks the Tyr
Region. The full force of the quake is centered west of the Tablelands
beyond the Ringing Mountains. The resulting quake creates the Great Rift, a
passage leading to the Crimson Savannah of the Kreen Empire.
-Desert's Fury (Free Year 11)
The Wanderer discovers the lost halflings, the rhul-thaun, of the Jagged
Cliff.
-Priest's Contemplation (Free Year 12)
After leaving the Jagged Cliffs, the Wanderer travels north and learns of
the Last Sea. There he discovers the bizarre land of the Mind Lords.
The Coruscation begins, the Day of Light prophesied by the dray when the
blood of a thousand unbelievers runs in rivers at the feet of Dregoth. This
sign is to bring about the coming of a new age where Dregoth is supreme.
