![]() They accomplish the founding of the cities of Tlaxtlan, Quetza and Zlatlan. The Slann of the Third Spawning are brought forth. During this time, the Old Ones begin to enforce their domination over the inhabitants of the world, radically altering the future of these races. The orbit of the Known World is moved close to its sun by the arcane arts of the Old Ones to alter its weather patterns and increase the planet's temperature, making it more conducive to life. The second generation of Slann are spawned. It is soon followed by the founding of Xlanhuapec and Tlax. 10,000 to -5600 IC - Founding of the First City, Itza, the first true city of the mortal world, built by the Lizardmen at the behest of the Slann. The first generations of Skinks and Kroxigor are created by the Old Ones, creating the spawning of the Known World's first intelligent mortal species, the Lizardmen. The first Saurus are spawned as living weapons, created from a blend of now-extinct native creatures of Lustria. The Slann of the First Spawning are created at the will of the Old Ones. At this time, the Known World's entire landmass is still comprised of a single, great supercontinent. The powerful intelligent beings known as the " Old Ones" cross the void in great, silver ships and arrive on the Known World in the primeval and untouched lands of what will one day become the continent of Lustria in the New World. 15,000 IC - The Known World at this time is inhabited by primordial intelligent races and species of terrible monsters, most knowledge of which has now been lost to time. Whenever the date of an event is unknown, but it is understood to have happened after the given year, it will be listed as a subset of the given year. The names of the various ages of creation are credited to the Lizardmen since they have the longest continual history of any intelligent race of the Known World. If a date is given in the source material according to a different calendar (such as the Nehekharan Calendar which dates Year 1 as the beginning of King Settra the Imperishable's second reign, the Book of Days of the Asur ( High Elves) which measures dates in the regnal years of the Phoenix Kings or the Gospodarin Calendar of Kislev which dates its Year 2 as the founding of the city of Kislev) the dates are adjusted to coincide with those of the Imperial Calendar by matching them against the founding of the Empire by Sigmar in the year 1 IC. The timeline lists general dates of major events according to the Imperial Calendar (IC). Translated into Reikspiel by Magister Verspasian Kant, Patriarch of the Light Orderīelow is the Timeline of the Warhammer World, outlining a full chronology of the notable events that have transpired for all of the major factions in the history of the Known World. Now millennia have passed, and we speak our own Words, Words that marry the tongues of the Mundane with tongues of those whose mystical insight teaches us of the Gods and the world, of the Mortal and Immortal, and with them we may sculpt the world to our Will and the universe to our Design. ![]() Within the Endless Potential of the Unrealised, Conceptions began to take their own form, and in time the Great Paradigms awakened-Powers of the Unrealised that spoke their own Words, so glorious and so terrible. And so the Words made new Conceptions, and new Conceptions increased Intelligence, and increased Intelligence broadened Consciousness, and broadened Consciousness deepened Perception, and this deepened Perception came to know Life more fully, and Perception understood the Form and Process of all that was Realised and came to permeate the raw Potential of all the was yet Unrealised. In time, Creation realised unto itself Life, and Life in turn spawned Perception, and following Perception came Consciousness, and with Consciousness so followed Intelligence, and from Intelligence sprang Conception, and from that came the Words that bind all things into Conception. Every new creation brought with it the possibility for growth and a greater complexity of Form and Process. As Time and Matter and Dimension swelled in the physical womb of the Realised, the Potential continued to grow alongside them within the metaphysical womb of the still Unrealised. And so it was that this Endless Potential realised its own existence, thus creating the Universe and all the planes of existence that run parallel to it. " In the moments before the Beginning, there was no Time, no Matter, and no Dimension, only the Endless Potential for these things-for in the absence of absolutely everything, absolutely anything becomes possible.
