| == The Story So Far ==
| |
|
| |
| ==== Wizards & The Book of Lore ====
| |
| On June 30th 2021 at 8:30AM, a cult of 10,000 on-chain wizards was summoned by [[Magic Machine]], with the goal of creating a decentralized media franchise where characters are owned by the community. Shortly after [[The Summoning]], [[The Book Of Lore]] was released where you can inscribe your character's story or lore. The Book of Lore acts as Forgotten Rune's primary canon record. Once written into the Book of Lore, a wizard's story can't be erased (although it can be struck, see [[The Book of Lore]]).

|
| |
| ==== The Sacred Flame & Forgotten Souls====
| |
| Next came [[The Sacred Flame]] [[airdrop]] and the subsequent [[Wizard Burning]] event. Wizard's could be burned with a Sacred Flame to produce a [[Forgotten Soul]] (the wizard and flame are sacrificed in the process). The souls collection is Forgotten Runes' second official character collection and consists of a number of different undead creatures including [[Mythical Souls]]. During burning, a wizard's traits is taken into account for the resulting soul traits. I.E. burning a Kobold wizard would produce a Kobold soul. Burning isn't a guaranteed chance at a soul however as one may end up with an [[Undesirable]].

| |
| ==== Wizard Walk cycles ====
| |
| The metaverse is the holy grail of web3. Being able to take a character from The Runiverse and present as that character in The Otherside or Worldwide Web 3 is part of what makes owning a Forgotten Runes character so rewarding. To that end, [[Magic Machine]] created 360 degree walk cycles for each wizard that are available via a public API for anyone to use, from hobbyist developer to metaverse architect. Being able to walk around as ''your'' Forgotten Runes character is a powerful thing.

|
| |
| ==== Ponies & Merch drop #1 ====
| |
| We next skip to December of 2021 and the minting of the [[Forgotten Ponies]]. Cult members were able to order a merch box containing an assortment of Forgotten Runes merch, a first for the project. Receivers of the merch box were surprised to find a QR code with a silhouette of a pony inset in the middle and a code on the back. This QR led to a site prompting the Cult to enter their code. Upon completion, users were rewarded with a Forgotten Pony. In addition to being able to write lore for them, ponies will also be available to be ridden in [[The Runiverse]].

| |
| ===The Animated Trailer===
| |
| On May 4th 2022, in partnership with animation studio [[Titmouse]], the Forgotten Runes trailer was released. It serves as a teaser for the upcoming show as well as the Forgotten Runes world as a whole.
| |
|
| |
| ==== The Beasts & Spawn ====
| |
| On DATE, wizards had to work together to open up the [[Gate to the Seventh Realm]]. 42 locks were created and distributed to the wizards who opened the locks. To open a lock, a wizard with a key must have teamed up with a wizard with a spell. The resulting lock would have the spell engraved on it. After the gate was opened The Seven Beasts appeared. The Seven Beasts (Chaos Chimera, Bugbear Chieftain, Triple Crowned Cockatrice, Salt Keplie, Gigas Chad, The Nightmare Imp, and Seven Tailed Kitsune) were auctioned off once per day with an eighth and final beast [[The Quantum Ouroboros]] being auctioned by Christie's.
