Long ago, the races of man and dragon faced a threat they could had never imagined... A rogue dragon known as the Beast King rose from the basin of the sea, and scorched the earth of both dragon and man. The Beast King was a threat no one had ever seen before. While most dragon's wings spanned across 12-15 yards, according to legend, the Beast King's wings were so large and so black that when they stretched they could block out the sun for miles: Its body so massive no other dragon stood a foot against him. So great was his roar he could shatter mountains, and cause the tides to stop.

Unprepared for the attack, and with no way to possibly defeat it on their own, the races banded together to stand against him. Battles were lost, lives were destroyed by the power of the Beast. Cities were razed in flashes of flame, and nations fell in mere days, all in vain. In a mater of months, the races of dragons and man were put into the 1000s. Left with no option, the strongest mages of both races, the immortal human king Ergoth, and dragon sovereign Nor'Lok, magically channeled their life essences and knowledge into a single tome of wisdom. Between the two of them, thousands of lifetimes of knowledge and wisdom had been placed into a single tome so powerful it could see past the fragile barrier of time and peer into the distant future. And so, the Flameseeker Prophecies were created. The cost of creating the Prophecies was great, costing the lives of both great kings, but with it humanity was able to survive...

Taking the Prophecies deep underground, the dragons and humans that survived hid within the crust of the Realm, where the Beast's power could not reach. With nothing left to destroy, it did not take long for the Beast to fall back to sleep, far below the sea. Only 10 years after, the races of the Realm were able to rise from the earth and build their new homes ontop of the ones the Beast had destroyed. With the wisdom, and knowledge, of the Prophecies, both man and dragon have grown to become strong once more...

It has been almost three-thousand years since the Razing. Now both races have returned replenished and started to grow vast one more. The dragons have reclaimed their homes high in the mountains, as have the humans in the plains and valleys, and both races live in great peace. Because of the knowledge of the Prophecies, the races have been able to quickly rebuild the vast empire they lost across the land. For the most part, the two races live separate lives, but slowly- over the last two-hundred years -settlements of both humans and dragons dot the landscape, and a new race has been born. The race of Carion was born: Tall humanoids with thick colored scales. They are a near perfect mixture of the two races, with the best traits of the both. Smart and wise, strong and courageous. Warrior or mage, rogue fighter or mighty guardian. The Flameseeker Prophecies have foretold of their birth... and the return of the Beast King close behind them.

Before the Razing, when the Beast King engulfed the Realm in flame, the world used to hold hundreds of sentient races: From Sylvari; a race of dryad wizards, and Orcs; powerful, fearsome, and honorable warriors, all the way to races such as Colk; beautiful and fearless sea-folk. While most of these races were very powerful in their own right, they had still never achieved the total peace that the humans experienced prior to the Razing. The majority were destroyed in the first few months of the Razing, and those who survived tried to retaliate, and destroy the Beast King, but failed in vain. Very few of those races still live today, and most of them live in the protection of the humans and dragons. (You may create your own race, but you must give me a valid reason for their existence, and how they survived the Razing.)

Humans: Claimed the strongest and most powerful race in the realm, by themselves, the human empires have been sacked and rebuild many times before the Razing. There appeared to be no end to human ingenuity, will, and courage. But with their strength, comes endless greed. Humans are born with a never ending appetite for power, wealth, and status within their society. Their bodied and minds are divided: Their bodied cry out for war, but their minds whisper for peace. It is up to humans themselves to decide which one they will follow... (Most characters will be full-blooded humans.)

Dragons: Strong, majestic, beautiful, and wise beyond calculation: Dragons are the most elder race in the Realm, or so it is thought. Their bodies and souls are immortal, meaning they will never die of age, allowing them to transcend their knowledge from body to body in life. Many dragons, before the Razing, lived hundreds of lives. But they have a special weakness towards the Beast King; if one is slain by or near the Beast King, their soul is unable to move to the next life, killing them eternally. Very few dragons lived through the Razing, only 10-12, but were luckily able to reproduce and replenish new dragons into the Realm. (Dragon characters will need express permission through me, and will not be main characters.

Carion: The children of dragon and man, they are a near perfect mixture of the physical traits of their father races. Most Caron live in nomadic tribes across the Realm, hidden from the eyes of those that would judge and discriminate against them. They are strong, wise, fearsome, and brave. They fear not death nor war, but relish peace and prosperity. They are without a doubt the finest warriors in the Realm... and may be the key to the Realms survival. (Most characters can be Carion.)

The Prophecies tells "... six heroes; born after the creation of the dragon-children, who will lead the races of the Realm against the reign of the Beast.
