The fierce, yet loyal atmosphere of the Empire of Midhir is evident in its histories. The Empire was founded during what is now referred to as the 'Dark Ages'. Pestilence, war, and famine were commonplace. The first Emperor of Midhir, the great Philip IV, brought his people through the Great Plague. While the surrounding nations were weakened, Philip marched and conquered the lands adjacent to Midhir.

His son, Philip the V, also known as Philipthe Great, restored his lands from the ravishes of war. This was a period of prosperity and peace in the lands of Midhir. However, there was troublebrewing in the nearby regions.

The rein of Philip VI passed rather uneventfully, with the people and coffers growing ever richer. His son, however, Philip VII, was treacherously killed in battle, after reining for only 3 years. His young cousin, Locrin, assumed the throne.

Locrin, used to a life of luxury, fast horses, and faster women, was totally unprepared to assume the throne. Things went well for a few years, however, the people protested as he raised taxes higher and higher to pay for his extravagant lifestyle. The people grew more and more discontent as the years went by. As Emperor Locrin was nearing 40, he decided that he would marry. At a ball of state, he saw the young noblewoman Nokomis, and began calling on her. Although she made it abundantly clear that she wasn't interested (throwing wine in his face, tripping him in a field full of horse manure, etc...), Emperor Locrin forced the young Nokomis to marry him. She remained faithful, even though he was twice her age, and she didn't like him much. However, Locrin had taken a mistress. When Nokomis discovered this, she drowned the woman and her son, and killed Locrin in combat. Nokomis ruled for many years, but like all mortals, her time was finite. One stormy night..as age had crept upon Nokomis, she tossed about in her bed chamber and she felt the hand of death close upon her. Without an heir, the kindom of Midhir went into a state of War. Former lower nobility now, were promoted to heir apparents. War broke out across the lands. Each faction laid claim to the throne. While strife ruled the lands, a rumor surfaced... The love child of Locrin and his mistress had survived the murderous hands of Nokomis and the child now wore the garb of a peasant. Wizards of great wisdom and power scoured the land and finally found the now young man who had been Nokomis' prey. That man was Entropy, Gypsy Master to the lower elements of the kingdom, Orc slayer to the guild of Warriors, and Magus Supreme to the Magic Masters of the the realm. The child, tested in treachery and grown in the trials of life, would grow the Kingdom of Midhir beyond the grasp of his fathers meager goals. Entropy would unify the kingdom and conquer the known world.
