The Age of Demigods was an active and dynamic, though often dangerous and chaotic, period between the ascension of the Demi-Pantheon and the beginning of the Prophet's War. This period was characterized in the earliest part by the two-century Cleansing War, when the survivors of the goodly races fought against the huge number of remaining, but now leaderless, servitors and driving them into the wild and barren places of the world. The final years of the Cleansing War saw the foundation of the first cities, which typically developed from fortification complexes and such. When the Demi-Pantheon removed themselves from the world, leaving behind their influence but abrogating their ability to directly intervene, those cities - often filled with highly skilled men- and women-at-arms - became engines for conquest and dynastic domains, leading - in time - to the First Empire. The final centuries, as the post-Ubrekti equilibrium began to fail, it saw the rise and fall of nations, and the birth of Alexandria.
Sages of the Age of Demigods, like those of the Alexandrian Church, often divide their subject up into a number of periods.
1. Cleansing War Period
2. Period of Urbanization
3. Dynastic Period
4. Ubrekti Period
4a. Ubrekti Rising
4b. Ubrekti Dominant
4c. Ubrekti Descendant
