Racial Articles The Beginning

The Asyndi are the first children of Imarel; angelic creatures born of divine conception, but later fell from grace and lost the gift of immortality. The ancient Asyndi served the Old Gods, Zorah the Mother of the Moon and Kaal the Father of the Sun with great prejudice against the corrupt and twisted demons and devils of the Xoss. The Asyndi were the exemplification of the deities and all their ideals. As such they were given powers nearly as vast as the deities' own to ensure that this newborn world would become a utopia for all that would set upon it.

Great battles raged all over Imarel between these fiends of the cold dark and the shining Asyndi that shaped the world's surface. Mountains were made, continents were torn asunder and the waters came with the calling of great storms to wash away the filth of the evil that had beset the land. This war would come to be known as the War of Twilight for it signified the end of the First Age of Imarel.

When it was done, the Asyndi had been triumphant, but this victory also set the seeds of entitlement and indignation within them. Their heavenly parents had done nothing to aid or assist in this victory. in their opinion. Zorah and Kaal had done nothing for the great curse put on their progeny by three Underlords of Xos as they slew their Lord, Hazaad and yet it was to be to their glory Imarel was saved?

It was then and there many of the Asyndi abandoned their faith in Zorah and Kaal and set forth to shape the world they had won for them and their own progeny, cursed by darkness though they be. Their immortality and their power lasted a few generations more, but it became evident with the loss of their faith in the Old Gods, also came the loss of the Old Gods' blessing upon them. Henceforth these Asyndi knew themselves as the Shar'Vaire, or The Unchained in the Common tongue.
