β˜… Browbird LORE


Browbirds are a long lived space faring species with the innate ability to manipulate the mysterious magical energy that flows through the universe itself stemming from powerful metaphysical streams known as ley lines. Across browbird communities, there is a shared interest in magic and pushing the boundaries of what is possible through its use.

Although they are an extremely technologically advanced species today, this was not always the case. Long before any semblance of mastery of the interactions between magic and technology, the original browbird homeworld was torn apart by horrors from the Abyssal Void, colloquially referred to as the abyss. At this time, hiros and astreans were allied with land dwelling browbirds and jointly, utilizing an experimental ritual conceptualized by the astreans, made the decision to migrate to a new world.

The four deimities were the only ones with the raw magical power to successfully migrate the population, even if it was comparatively lesser than what it was before the void crisis. They agreed to lend their abilities at the cost of their own sacrifice, knowing this was the only way to save their species.

Their new homeworld was named Wyldre. It was an extremely hostile environment to the unadapted species, putting a huge amount of pressure on the surviving groups and leading to increased tensions between the previously allied groups. What was left of their society from before had collapsed, leaving confused, scared, and unprepared browbirds in a brave new world. The hiros took to the skies and the astreans took to the seas, severing their ties with the land dwelling browbirds.

This period of uncertainty gave way to many disputes and civil wars, even up until the browbird space age when the first rudimentary spaceships were constructed and in use. Of these wars, the most notable was the Void War, spearheaded by the void deimity Rovok. The conflict of the Void War was so immense and immeasurable that it led to the destruction of several worlds and gravely impacted countless others.

It was only when the Void War ended that New Centuary was founded upon the foundation of tentative peace. Named after the old browbird homeworld, the original Centuary, New Centuary sought to be a collective hub and effective capital for all species, especially with regards to rebuilding society, reconstructing ties between affected groups, and brokering peace between the remaining outliers.

Today, more than two millennia have passed since the conclusion of the Void War. Within the last few hundred years, browbirds have begun to truly prosper and thrive, though the shaky sense that peace may be temporary remains.
