Horadrum was the first great kingdom of the world. Founded by Horador, first King of the Humans, its founding marks the Dawn of Ages, or the dawn of human civilization.

Prior to Horadrum, humans were a minority in the world, outnumbered by other races, such as the serdians, elves, centaurs, dwarves, and eagles. After numerous battles and negotiations, the chieftain Horador managed to expel all rival life-forms from the human settlements. He then united the different settlements under his name and founded Horadrum. The human population thereafter exploded, and people managed to fight their way through the world and settled in various regions, including Arkanros, Karabala, and Geugaw, which had previously been inhabited by other beings. The humans either exterminated the native species or entered into a symbiotic pact with them.

Horadrum lasted for around a thousand years - its demise was brought about by the sudden change of climate and was accelerated by the Great Winter of 1579. The ruins of the great monarchy can still be seen today in the East.
