Brief History:

The Kingdom of Scorc was established in the year AE 2618 after Orbiun Scorc led a rebellion against the Neruan Empire. The success of this rebellion led to the fall of the Neruan Empire, which then dissolved into multiple countries occupying the region9 countries were born from this, occupying the land between the Atuvian League and the Kingdom of Roblesia. 

Centuries later, it came to light that the Atuvian League played a big role in the fall of the Neruan Empire, financing the rebels, eliminating one of their rivals, and threatening to create small states that, later on, could be defeated and integrated into their own country. This plan never came to fruition as the Kingdom of Scorc was established right on their southern borders, proving to be a powerful and stable neighborThroughout the centuries, there were multiple wars fought between the two, without moving the border into any directions..

The Kingdom of Scorc's biggest defeat came at the hands of the Ishillian Empire in AE 2905. Even though they managed to kill the Emperor of NothingMentioned in the first Codex chapter, it is not confirmed who dealt the death blow to this day., they still lost most of their western regions, alongside their old capital city of Roria. For the next more than a century and a half, they tried to push into the Ishillian's territory, trying to retake their city, without any success.

Some notable rulers:

• Orbiun Scorc - AE 2618 - 2633Founder of the kingdom. Originally, he was a powerful general who was blamed when they lost against the Ishillian Empire's overwhelming power. He was forced to commit ritualistic suicide, but after refusing to comply, he led a rebellion that was the downfall of the Neruan Empire.
• Zutayo Scorc - AE 2634 - 2691Son of Orbiun, his efforts solidified the country to a state where they could stop later Ishillian skirmishes while also keeping the Atuvian League's influence to a minimum.
• Yano Scorc I - AE 2723 - 2748He was the first 'Wizard King,' a descendant of the bloodline, gifted in magic.
• Oshino Scorc - AE 2865 - 2879He is known as the weakest king of his family. His bad policies resulted in tweaking the armies' integrity and leaving the kingdom in a deep recession, resulting in their defeat against the Ishillians at AE 2905.
• Yano Scorc II - AE 2880 - 2906The second wizard king. Although they lost a good chunk of their territories and the old capital city, his efforts to stop the Ishillians from conquering the entire country are known to every citizen. The death of the Emperor of Nothing is attributed to him by the Scorcians. He later succumbed to the injuries he suffered in the battle but still laid out the plans for their revenge.
• Yano Scorc III - AE 2989 - TodayThe third wizard king has been ruling the kingdom for more than 40 years now.
