The World of Codex

Overview
Codex, a world of high sorcery and valiant warriors...

History
Codex was originally created by the primordial forces of Fate and Time, eventually coming to be known as Anake and Bazzel respectively. The two called forth the world by drawing the elemental planes together, mixing them and bringing forth the ancient dragons and their paragons. The dragons, granted sentience by the pair, began to call forth what would be known as the Dragon-borne races, the fae. There were originally three groups: The Undina, the Dwarves, and the Mustel.

The dwarves were sent to the south, burrowing into the tallest peak of the Yellow Mountains and creating a vast conclave. The mustel moved to the west, taking some of the more adventurous dwarves with them. There, they lived in a primordial forest and observed the creatures there. The undina, however, were not content with their masters. They strove to steal the magic of the elements from them, eventually creating mindless creatures they called horan.

Two undina would change the face of Codex forever. The first, Etu'An, imbues a horan with the soul made of all four elements, granting it sentience. Calling herself Evonne, she is encouraged by Etu'An to flee to the west after the mustel to flee prosecution from the other undina. Nearly at the same time, Dri'natur hunts down the paragon dragon Sarath'argent. Slaughtering the dragon with a blade from outside the material world, he blames the death on the highest mages of the Undina. This murder causes the beginning of the Millenium War.

In the course of the war, the Undina choosing not to fight against the dragons make a home in Kha-dyn, a hidden plane that they reinforce with spells. The remaining Undina draw on the pure elemental power of Codex, transforming themselves in the Dormalch Titans.
