==Ogrests Chaos== The primary [[Horus Heresy|cataclysmic event]] of the setting. Detailed both in a comic series, in in-game lore, and finally in an animated movie made by none other than the late Studio Ghibli studio. However, the production of this series is considered "troubled" at best due to issues between the legendary anime studio and Ankama's strict requirements. Still, its a great watch and can be purchased legally on Steam, of all places. One day, an alchemist named Otomai (who was the demigod son of Feca) was experimenting with rare crystals made of solidified Wakfu called Ogrines and mixed them with candy he/his created servants spilled by mistake. This created a living being, whom he named Ogrest.

In this one, he fell in love with her at first sight while she was lifeless. </gallery> Ogrest, thanks to his magically charged body, had peculiar properties to him like being nearly indestructible and having tears which grew as they fell (this was discovered when after being frightened as an infant he flooded his father's shop). His father cared for him and gave him a happy and sheltered childhood. And he would have had a pleasant life of it, in spite of the Chaos in all his works had his path not been crossed by a creature who causes more perplexity to man than the race of Boowolfs, Ouginaks, and Shushus put together; and that creature was a woman. [[Image:Gods Fight Ogrest.jpg|thumb|left|Ogrest fights the Twelve.]] Dathura, one of the god Sadida's dolls, wanted to be a real girl. Recognizing Ogrest as a being of immense potential ("Stick with me kid, we're gonna go places"), she convinced him when he became an adult to collect the six Primordial Dofus to use to turn her Human. He swallowed each one as he found them, growing in size and strength but losing his intelligence rapidly as he did so. Once the Primordial Dofus were gathered the gods became fearful: Ogrest's might was near on par with their own and he was unpredictable (and depending on your source of the story committed some very evil acts getting the Dofus). The Twelve declared war on him, and in the ensuing battles he cast them off their home on the tallest mountain in the World of Twelve, Mount Zinit (which at one point was the spaceship that carried the Eliatropes and Dragons to the World of Twelve). From here, there's multiple stories of what happened. In one, while exploring the entrances to the domains of the gods Dathura fell into the Deep Abyss of Time, the location of Xelorium, the realm of Xelor. Rather than try to find her, the great manchild began to weep and wail as he's dumb as a box of Iops. In another, Ogrest's relationship with Dathura was one-sided and he gathered the Dofus to attract her. After realizing she cared about the Dofus and not himself, he himself threw her into the Deep Abyss of Time and went into a hissy fit that lasted centuries. One story details that Dathura used the Dofus to become human, but their power slowly stopped working on her and she faded from existence causing Ogrest to fall into grief, not realizing that his anguished wailing was causing the world to fracture. Another story involves the Twelve causing Dathura to fall into the Abyss. In this version, Ogrest beat the Twelve and they fled from Mount Zinit. The final account has Dathura as an evil manipulator who tricked Ogrest into gathering the Dofus. Realizing what he had done, he himself threw her into the Abyss to stop her and his current state is a [[Ravenloft|tortured one]] rather than a malicious one. His tears, wailing, and fist pounding caused a cataclysm of near world-ending proportions. Tidal waves, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions wiped out most of the life on the planet, and turned the Pangaea-like continent into a series of large and small islands. Only the direct intervention of the Gods saved mankind, and the continued effort saps them of their former strength. With the ensuing devastation, more people than ever before clung to the worship of the Gods reducing the number of normal-looking Humans in the world and granting the gods new strengths in return. Ogrests Chaos continues to warp the creations of the Gods, making animals into monsters which harass mankind. Geography is a temporary state, and thus only magical maps are of any use in the long run. The technologies developed in the Dofus era were largely lost (not entirely however, as what remained simply became more valuable and likely to be found only within civilization) and the world gained a patchwork and cracked look not entirely dissimilar to a fantasy version of Star Wars. It's an inherited world, not a created one. As civilization was rebuilt, the former twelve kingdoms were replace by small kingdoms and a large number of chaotic and transitory political systems which can rise and fall in a month. Most of these frontier city-states are founded and ruled by those who "have proven their worth to the gods and people" AKA adventurers. While the major nations (Frigost, Amakna, Bonta, Brakmar, and Sufokia) still remain their grasp on the outlying towns and provinces is almost non-existent. New organizations spanning the world arose, which behave similar to the faiths of the Twelve but are more like adventurer guilds or cults dedicated to myths and past figures. Among them are a cult dedicated to Ogrest that make up the quota of Chaotic Evil cultists for the world, a cult to Otomai of fedora tippers who believe only in SCIENCE, a cult to Dathura which believed in finding her and returning her to Ogrest will save the world, and so forth. ===Noximillien the Clockmaker=== Detailed in an animated movie in a different style from the main series, this premiered alongside the finale of Wakfu and explained the origin of the primary antagonist. During the end of the Dofus era, there lived a poor man and his family. Noximillien Coxen, the father, was a Xelor who made clocks and mechanical devices in lieu of an inability to use the Xelors' usual time magic. Despite his genius, he was in perpetual debt to his irritable Enutrof landlord, and worried deeply that he was unable to provide for his family properly. One day, as Millien unveiled to them his newest creation, a flying clock which could follow its owner, his dog Igole chased the still-imperfect device down the beach to a cave hidden in the rocks, with the clockmaker in pursuit. Deep in a tidal pool, Millien and Igole discovered a strange glowing blue cube. Recognizing it to be something of extreme importance, he took it home and began to study it. He became more and more obsessed, gaining knowledge from the strange thing that he claimed identified itself as the "Eliacube" (in fact the very same as Qilby's made before time was even measured) and churned out new inventions rapidly. He became fixated on the potential worth of these discoveries and how they could help his monetary troubles. He began to neglect food and sleep in favor of his work, and lashed out at his wife when she pleaded with him to get rid of the cube, and end his isolation from his family. Determined to snap him out of his obsession, she took the children and went to stay with her sister, leaving a note explaining herself to him and asking him to find her there. But he the promises of the cube's creations were too tempting to Millien, and he simply returned to his shop. Months later, his landlord paid a visit to the house. A gaunt and haggard Millien emerged seemingly out of thin air and tossed a large bag of gold at the Enutrof's feet. He told the man to leave him to his work, but the landlord reported his debt had already been paid off by his wife for quite some time. Instead, he had come to see how Millien was doing with the loss of his family: during Ogrest's Chaos, the entire landmass where his family had lived had slipped into the sea. Millien angrily accused the landlord of lying, but he was struck by a vision of four stones, marking the graves of his family, and then understood that they were indeed lost. Consumed by guilt and despair, Millien finally succumbed to insanity, and in that madness, he concocted a plan to reverse time (a feat thought to be impossible) and undo the mistakes which led to the loss of his family. Now calling himself Nox, he began turning the inventions he had created during his isolation to a new purpose, to harvest the vast amounts of Wakfu that would be necessary for such a powerful spell. He sent forth Noxines based on his original flying watch design, which would now drain the Wakfu from living beings, and raised an army of minions to help carry out the task. He cut a swath of death through the world, draining the vital Wakfu from wherever it was collected in strongest concentrations. He reasoned that no act he committed was truly evil, as he would be able to reverse it all upon the completion of his plan. Nox would be the primary antagonist through the first season of Wakfu, pursuing the dragon Grougaloragran, and the young Eliatrope Yugo, and his dragon brother Adamaï for their Wakfu energy. He would eventually go on to target the Sadida people, by attempting to drain the Tree of Life, the entity to which their entire race is linked. <gallery> Image:Nox The Clockmaker.jpg Image:Noximillion.png|The young Nox.
