Ancients (unofficial)

The Ancients then known as the First Mages, were a race of powerful immortal magicians. Around one thousand years agon, Legenimor, the First King, lead the arrival of their kind from another world (perhaps the stars) and founded Daventry. Legenimor soon became the most powerful ruler the world had ever known, bringing both magic and civility to kingdom and surrounding lands. However, soon a terrible war broke out, the Grand War, and many people died. Legenimor blamed himself, and commited his power to the stars, becoming mortal in the process. Legenimor's brother Morgeilen disappeared during the war. He later became The Father, and began preparing for an upcoming Acension, and regaining his brother's power was an important part of that plan. He hoped to surpass his brother, becoming the most powerful ruler the world had ever known since the days of the Ancients.

All of the decendents of the First Mages, were mages themselves. Count Caldaur is one of the mage decendents.

''Its interesting to note that the history of the First Mages seems to share certain details of the history of both the Ancient Ones and mystical ancients of MOE. Both the First Mages and the Ancient Ones society existed about a thousand years ago. The mystical ancients and First Mages also seem to have prophecies referring to some kind of cataclysmic event (Cataclysm and Acension respectively). This could be more than just a coincidence and could have been planned intentionally to tie all the various stories of ancients together. This is highly likely considering that both Connor and the events of Mask of Eternity are specifically featured within the story, and tie into Morgeilin's third curse.''
