History of the Kromagg Dynasty

The History of the Kromaggs

The Kromaggs are from an alternate earth. On their world, Earth was divided into two continents, Atlantis and Pacificus.

Much like our earth, primates thrived on Pacificus. There were two primates that lived amongst each other. The first was a group known as the Cro-Magnon. The second were the Neandertals. The physical characteristics that distinguish the Cro-Magnons from the Neandertals are a high forehead and a well-defined chin.

The two groups both lived on Pacificus. The Neandertals ate meat, but the Cro-Magnon ate grown food. When the Neandertal food supply migrated, they also did. So, they went further and further east until they reached a land bridge known as the Bering Strait. They then crossed into the continent of Atlantis, where food was plentiful.

The Cro-Magnon were farmers and gatherers, therefor they had no reason to move. They stayed near Europe and established great city-states. The Neandertals, after coming to Atlantis, found they could farm the land, and soon began too.

Both races then, over many years, began to evolve. They still retained their physical features, but lost most of their hair reminiscent of the Ice Age. The Neandertals now called themselves Humans. The Cro-Magnon now called themselves Kromaggs.

Up to this point the Humans were finally evolved to the point where they began building cities. The Kromaggs, being more advanced, were now beginning to search for new lands. They expanded to Asia, then began sea travel.

In the year 1492 the Kromagg explorer Krolumbus ventured out in search of Atlantis There had been endless rumor and speculation that there was a second continent on the world and that it was populated by the Kromagg's ancient kinsmen. Krolumbus was determined to answer the ancient question once and for all.

After a number of healthy conflicts, brought about through ignorance and misunderstanding, both sides realized that each could benefit from the other through mutual trade and commerce. A new era of Cohabitation was born.

As the decades progressed, it became evident that intercontinental commerce, though fruitful, was hindered by the cultural barriers of the two races. It was determined that greater profitability could be attained by the breaking down of cultural barriers by assimilating one culture under a common ideology. Thus, in 1620, the first of many Human Cultural Importations was brought from Atlantis. Their purpose was to teach humans the Kromagg Way and to lay the groundwork for the homogenization of the two people working through a common struggle.

Of course, none of this would have been possible had it not been for the formation of the Kromagg Dynasty. In that same year, Krial the First ascended to the newly formed throne of the Pacificus. The cornerstone of his rule was based on the continental provision that conflict of all Kromagg Feudal houses would be regulated through the central monarchy. Through this regulation, the energy of these more constructive conflicts was directed toward nurturing the greater good as administered by the state.

What followed was a prosperity that lasted over one-hundred fifty years. The Kromagg Dynasty flourished in its internal conflicts. At the same time thousands of humans were imported from Atlantis and were enriched by their indoctrination into The Kromagg Way. It seemed as though the world was on a course toward homogenization and prosperity.

There were, unfortunately, two factors that the great Krial overlooked in his master plan. The unrest and ingratitude of the humans residing in Pacificus and lack of his own foresight in not extending his ideological hand to continental Atlantis itself. Thus, in 1860 the Golden Age ended.

The human freedom-fighter Abraham Lincoln was the impetus for the internal change that occurred in Pacificus. Lincoln was one of the greatest students of the Kromagg Way. By misusing his knowledge and skill of Kromagg conflict he orchestrated a human ideological revolt that resounded throughout Pacificus. Lincoln lead a human emancipation from Kromagg teachings, turning thousands of humans against their mentors. The ensuing struggle fell outside the crown's regulatory guidelines. The state was unprepared for this and was plunged into chaos.

Meanwhile, across the ocean, the president of Atlantis, Jefferson Davis, along with his team of technologists lead by Thomas Edison and Alfred Nobel, began the Atlantean Technological Revolution. While the Kromaggs were busy attempting to create a bold new society, the Humans were developing their abilities to harness great sources of crystalline vibrational energies. Energies that they would later used against the Kromagg people.

With an ever-growing technology at his disposal, coupled with Lincoln's clandestine operatives, Jefferson Davis was able to orchestrate a mass abduction of humans from our lands. Some went willingly. Others went as Kromagg spies and were able to successfully siphon back to Pacificus some of Davis' technology. Although the then Kromagg emperor Krobarcree the Third was not prone to lowering himself to the ways of his enemies, he realized that the lesser of two evils would be to create a Kromagg technological base of their own to better defend Pacificus. Thus, began one of the greatest and most trying of all Kromagg struggles.

Pacificus and Atlantis were soon locked in a what became known as The Tepid Conflict - a century long on again off again struggle of brinkmanship, espionage, arms superiority and periodic military engagements. The struggle, though long and taxing, raised the Kromagg people to its greatest pinnacle of character.

The conflict peaked in the 1960's when the greatest of Kromagg leaders, Krokrislak the Second decided to mount an all out war against the Atlanteans, beginning with the assassination of its then president, Joseph Kennedy Jr. The war raged for over ten years. What we lacked in technology we made up for with tenacity and victory was within the Kromagg grasp. The world would soon be one, of a single struggle, under Kromagg rule. But all was ripped away at the last minute by a handful of Atlantean Technologists.

In the early 1980's President Ronald Reagan, unleashed, a new vibrational neutrino weapon known as the Voraton, upon Pacificus. Invented by technologists, Michael Mallory, the device annihilated two thirds of the Kromagg population, rendered their surviving females infertile, and reeked havoc upon the human population, and ecosystem. The struggle ended in a fortnight and the Kromaggs were defeated.

The humans made the decision to exile the remaining Kromagg people by utilizing a new device called a Quantum Probability Translocator, also invented by Mallory. With it the humans were able to transport the remaining Kromagg population to an Earth in a parallel dimension, later named Kromagg Prime. Then, to insure that they would never find their home world again, its location was cloaked to prevent the Kromagg return.

They also made a copy of the weapon that destroyed the Kromaggs, just in case they needed it again, and put it on a guarded asteroid in hyperspace, to keep the Kromaggs from finding it.

The humans, however, overlooked two factors when enacting their plan. First, Kronbraun, one of our peoples' greatest scientists, was able to steal and smuggle away the plans for the Quantum Probability Translocator. Second, the humans miscalculated the dimensional transport. Instead of sending our people to an unpopulated world, they arrived on a fully populated Earth. There the Kromaggs were welcomed by its reigning king Adolf the Third.

In Adolph the Kromaggs shared a common struggle and an alliance was formed. The remaining power of the Kromagg military joined the King in defeating an uprising.

In return for Kromagg assistance, the grateful King Adolf granted them access to the whole of his industrial might.

In a matter of a few years the Kromaggs managed to reassert their technical prowess and rebuild the Kromagg military into a formidable force. Once again they were immersed in the upward struggle. They were Kromagg once again, and we were, as is our way, better for it. With an arsenal of new weapons and the Translocator at our disposal, they were ready to reach out and take back what was theirs.

What they found, at first, truly overwhelmed them. The Kromaggs learned that there seemed to exist an infinite number of parallel Earths. Emperor Krokrislak had a vision and realized they were standing on the precipice of their destiny. The Kromagg people would set out to find their homeworld. But in the course of that quest they would conquer every non-Kromagg ruled world. And so it is today.
