So... Talon was the temple of Ki? Or does it not get that far? Or is it closer Landon?

That's some great info. And that map...nice. I'll add to the list of questions. Where is the Kor mountains on that map?

No Loki, the temple of Ki is further west, and up north in the mountains.

The Talon are from the area near Landon. As you move up past RavenWatch toward Talon hold, you're skirting the large forest to the west (can't remember the name of that forest off hand).

Pah! I thought that had the tree huggers sorted :twisted:




Anyways this thread is excellent - i've not been able to play on any other severs (and not because they where warned!) because i haven't found one that has any real history or background story in the way Dasaria has - and without that history the game just seems a bit hollow.. so thanks guys for all the extra info and well played Bronco for asking the questions :D [/quote]

Astamyre, I recall things happening in this order:

- Redboot Brigade is formed
- Windy, Master Assasin of Varana, terrorizes Daris
- Torinvhork Hall is opened
- LDS is formed
- Dasar is liberated from Varana
- Dasar is split
The Temple of Nergal is establised in the ruins
- Reconstruction begins in New Dasar (Order of the Fist, Redboot Baracks, Damage, Inc., etc.)
- The Talon stronghold is created
- Ravenwatch falls
- The Suicide Kings are formed
- The Council of Lords is formed
- The Renegades are formed
- The banker is captured by the Talon
- The Shai Tribe moves in
- Arborsway appears
- A ancient sewer is discovered under Daris
- Mining Gnolls start digging caves from Solace to Dasar
- DoSLB is formed
- Claw Capture Peribo
- Heroes Rescue Peribo
- Bearis acts weird
- Fenia rescued
- Varanites Assult Daris
- Heroes of Daris Assult Varanites
- Heroes discover and destroy Varanite clone lab
- Claw Defeat Dasarian Heroes
- Dasarian Heroes Escape Varanite Prison
- The Order of the Whirling Serpent opens a monistary in New Dasar

I thought Varana was still allied with Druaga. Aren't they?

As I recall, the mace's head was once safe in the temple at Ravenwatch. It was stolen by the servents of Druaga when they attacked Ravenwatch. It is now in the possession of some demon.

*HIC* Not bad sonny, but the Stumpy Brigade was set up long before that, and ye missed out one of the BIGGEST events in the History. Just after The Hall was built...............Flin bought a round in the Boar!! :twisted:

Historians still talk about it in smoke filled huddles, almost disbelieving it, they still think it's merely legend. But I was there! I still have the mug framed on me Temple wall! *BURP*

*chuckles*
I don't have a drinking problem.......

I LIKE it!! :)

History is written by the victors. They often make it up to suit their own ends :twisted:

With all the info here, I think this thread should become a sticky. That way newcomers can get easy access to the history.

By the way Sol, I love your Signature!
