History

Og, the first god ascended and showed other giants the path to immortal ascension, thus were born the First Children who possess passion.

For thousands of years the First Children ruled but the mortal giants began to forget them and despise them. In an act of trickery, the First Children helped six new giants ascend but twisted and molded them into gods of destruction. The gods of destruction molded new beasts from fire and stone and drown the world in a plague of dragons bent on destroying and pacifying every mortal giant. For a time the dragons ruled.

Og, disgusted by the callousness of the First Children, decided to set things right and helped 16 new gods to ascend. To the new gods, the gods of balance, he gave to each the ability to mold the land into new beings. Thus the races of humanoids were born. The humanoids banded together and fought back the dragon plight, killing all but the strongest who took refuge in remote and dangerous lands. Balance was brought to the land again.

Og, correcting the mistakes of the past, set before all giants the path to immortality. He created a quest called “The Titans Pilgrimage” so daunting that few could succeed. In the four thousand years since it began, only ten have succeeded, the new gods, the Pilgrims of Og.
