War of the Titans

War of the Titans
Once the worlds were formed by the Gods the Titan race went to work creating the different races and creatures. The first of these were the Angelic and Demonic races, then the dragon races, and finally the younger races starting with the elves and dwarves and ending with the humans. Yet by the time the human race was created a divide had started between the Heavens and the Nine Hells. The Gods had started to separate their pantheon along the lines of good and evil, and conflict was soon to follow. This was the War of the Titans. Gods sent their armies of Angels and Demons into battle and pitted Titans against each other in a bid for control of all planes of existence.

The war lasted a century, causing devestation across the planes a final battle was headed at the center of magical energy on Iraelon. Both sides knew that controlling this well of energy would finally turn the tide of the war and bring things to a conclusion. But using the power contained here also risked ripping reality into pieces as ripple effects would be felt through all the planes and time. Knowing this two people decided to finish the endless fighting. Coming together, Nuriel an Angel and Vogithan a Demon, hatched a plan to separate the planes and seal the Gods behind the Veil. With the help from Mystra, the neutral goddess of magic, a contract was drafted that required the seals of both the Heavens and the Nine Hells. Nuriel and Vogithan placed their seals upon the Contract and with that the war came to a close. The Gods were forced beyond the Veil were their interactions on the planes would be minimized, and the Angels and Demons were sent back to their planes. The Contract was then hidden so that it could not be altered or destroyed to prevent the war from starting again.
