Forceria

Forceria is an imaginary world, developed in the Chronicles of the war of Lodoss . It is composed of 3 continents: Araycrust, Crystania and Lodoss.

Universe of Forceria

At the beginning of the days was the Atsuki giant, or Léviathan. He died of an unknown cause. Its entrails broke out and created the world of Forceria. Its body formed the ground, of its blood were formed the oceans and the seas, its whole last breath of anger formed the winds and the storms and of its spirit were born the gods.

The era of the gods

The era of the gods started just after the death of the Atsuki giant. There were four clans of gods created:
  • gods of the light
  • gods of darkness
  • neutral gods
  • the gods dragons or " Lords" dragons;

History of the era of the gods

The era of the gods is summarized with fratricidal combat having lasted of the thousands of years between the gods of the light and the gods of darkness. During first engagements the gods of darkness released from the hundreds of gods dragons who devoured the immortal gods. A group of gods made the decision to flee the engagements and to create a perfect world which they called Crystania. After bloody battles, the era of the gods whom one believed eternal arrived at his end. At the time of the last Marfa battle, goddess of the creation and mother of the ground, delivered a pitiless combat vis-a-vis her last adversary Kardis, the terrible goddess of the destruction which proceeded in the South-east of the large continent of Araycrust. Following a simultaneous blow both goddess were destroyed. In its last breath Kardis curses the grounds on which the combat had taken place. Marfa which failed used its last forces to separate these grounds from the large continent. This gigantic island derived towards the South and was named by its inhabitants " Lodoss, the island maudite". The history of the era of the gods became a legend which was transmitted during generations in the world. Certain wise mortals retained that this era of bloody combat was more than useless because with final the gods who were too strong the ones for the others destroyed them same. Some the oldest tops elves of the forest without return and the forest of the mirror (located on the island of Lodoss) would have taken part in these titanic combat. Such is the case for certain former black elves of the island of Marmo.

Clans of Gods

Gods of the Light

The most powerful goddess of the ténèbre who was generated was Kardis the goddess of the total Destruction.

Neutral Gods

The neutral gods were about thirty. They were born from the entrails of Léviathan but contrary to their brothers, they decided not to engage in the conflicts. When the Dragons Lords were released, the neutral gods gave up their bodies of gods and sealed their hearts in the body of an animal. They were withdrawn far from the conflicts and created together a ground folded up on it even as they named Crystania. This ground was to be a perfect world. The gods were established in the center of this ground and formed a council which sat on " The island of the conseil". The inhabitants of Crystania had the capacity to transform themselves into animals. In order to establish an eternal harmony the gods forced " the law of the cycles": each being with Crystania lived, would die, ressucitait eternally and achieved a destiny decided by the will of the gods by thus achieving a cycle eternal. Almost all the gods died at the time of a coflit intern against the Barbas god. Only two of the members of the council of the Gods survived. These two survivors then linked themselves to rebuild Crystania.

The Gods Dragons or " Lords" dragons;

During adverse combat the gods of the Light to those of Darkness, the gods of darkness released from the hundreds of gods dragons who were called the Dragons Lords. They started to devour the immortal gods, one called them " Devourers of Dieux". They inpiraient such a fear that the neutral gods gave up their bodies of gods to be able the fuirs. Certain Dragons Lords were turned over against the gods of darkness. Much of them disappeared. A long time after the era of the Gods, the wizards of the kingdom of Kastuul managed to dominate them and to overcome them. With the fall of the kingdom of the wizards, the last five dragons of Lodoss were cursed and charged to eternally protect the treasures from Kastuul. After the war of Lodoss there remained nothing any more but one dragon on Lodoss: it is about Mycen, the king of the dragons to the gold scales.
