Scarabia Extended Timeline
Tribal Era (0 - 900 CE)
- 340 CE - Earliest confirmed existance of the Yuli Tribe, the original ancestors of the Scarabian kingdom, occupying the area now known as the Pillars of Tri.
- 548 - 550 CE - After a few generations have come and gone, the tribe falls into intense religious disagreement. The foundation of their religious - Tri - is founded, based upon the belief of three psuedo-parallel dimensional planes - the plane of sense, the plane of spirit, and the plane virtue - that which when combined make up our own plane of existance, and is responsible for the essense and behavior of life. It is however disagreed upon the role of the religion.
The tribe was eventually split into three groups, whom later become known as:
- The Yuli Monks: Believed that people could meditate and atune themselves towards the planes for self betterment, and was in favor of grand devotions and testaments of their belief.
- The Scarab Warriors: Mostly comprised the tribe's hunters and guardsman, they believed the planes should generally be acknowledged by people, but that no specific action was required.
- The Hurundamese: Considered to be the radicals of the tribe, they believed that each person was born of one plane, and that their life and role within the village would be based on this.
The Yuli Monks were the prime descendants of the founding family, and occupied the Pillars of Tri. The Scarabians migrated to the south, and the Hurundamese migrated north.
- 552 CE - Riled by talks of a new declared religion, the Heretika actively declare war on the three central tribes. While the Heretika were already at war with all tribes on the island due to constant harrassment, this is the first instance in which they focused their attacks in an official, organized sense. The war becomes known as the Heretikian War.
- 558 - 560 CE - The two tribes that split bunker down into permanent settlements to better defend themselves against the Heretika. The Hurundamese occupy the area now known as West Field with the founding of Stonick Village. The Scarab Warriors collect their efforts and form the tribe Scarab, and occupy Faldon Desert with the founding of Faldon Village.
- 564 - 568 CE - The three tribes eventually organize a war effect against the Heretika. The Scarab Tribe largely head up the war using their warrior heritage, and begin to occupy the other two tribes as protection. After three years, the Heretika reign is brought to an end.
- 569 CE - The tribes remerge and form the Scarabian Alliance, and occupy the central regions of the island. Most of the leaders of the aliiance move their base of operations to Stonick Village over the next few decades, due to its rapid development and opportunity.
