Events: Born in 132 BPI, Talia saw the world as a unified entity taught by the Primordials in unity and development. Everything began to change in 0 API, when the Humans and "new gods" arrived. Suddenly, the togetherness that existed in the realm began to turn more individualistic and racial distinctions were made clear. She watched as the Primordials fell from the high points as the maternal/paternal figures of the mortals and she did not understand. Everything worked before, but now, it all started to fall apart. She began to distance herself from this new world and went into hibernation, eventually finding herself waking up in 502 API. Coming out from her den, she immediately saw that the world she had grown up in was no more. The lands were split asunder, the nature and overgrowth was much less present, and large cities of stone rose to the skies. She took the form of a human and explored the realm, learning of the events that had passed by as she slumbered. She learned of the jealousy of the divines, the wars fought in the name of vengeance, the pointless amounts of blood spilled, and for what? In the world she knew, everything was simple. But that was no longer her world.

For the next 50 years she continued to wander, learning all things she could from every corner of the realm. She attended the Grand College of Kyrule, learned the elemental powers from the Monastery of Elements, and even learned basic engineering from the Gnomes in Arrow Isle. She walked every walk of life in those years and realized one thing. The world is divided. When she would go from place to place, she would discover that something she'd learn in one place was never heard of in another. Tactics, technology, magic even. The mortals were keeping things to themselves. It was then, that she knew what she had to do. She had to unite the people in this world under one rule. Her's. This would lead into the bloodiest war in the history of the Mortal Realm. The Draconic Incursion.

Leading up to the Incursion, she assembled the Dragons she could find and convince. In the leading years she would also create an army of Humans enthralled by her. In 580 API she assembled the forces and any others willing to join her cause and set out. She razed the grounds around Valkyria, reducing the farms around the city to ash, then moved on to the smaller towns, burning them all to ash. She traveled throughout the world, creating a path of destruction in her wake. This was all stopped in 587 API when Lytia foiled her ambush on Temis and Valore. Talia, however, had already found a way to grant herself divinity and as she died, she found herself being sent to the Obsidian Valley, finding Fyaris greeting her. Scholars say that it is only a matter of time before she reemerges into the Mortal Realm to exact revenge.
