The Realm of Paladins has its share of Legends and Myths; tales told of incredible items or people, with the validity of the stories being uncertain to many in the Realm. Though most of these legends don't have an official name as of yet.
List of Legends and Myths[ | ]
Legend of the Paladins[ | ]
The Legend of the Paladins is arguably the most well known tale in the Realm. Long ago, the world was in chaos; though the Warders had dealt with the threat of the Dragons, the Realm was soon threatened by two Goblin Scourges, which led to the creation of the legendary group known as the Paladins, the Realm's Champions, a group of magical warriors led by Valera, with Karne being another notable member, with these two becoming legendary in their own right. The group created a race of rock people known as the Stagalla to aid them against the goblins, and eventually, the scourges were repelled, allowing for the Realm to enter a century long Golden Age of peace; that is, until a certain discovery was made.

Legend of the Shattered Desert / Story of the Shattered Moon[ | ]
Told of in ancient texts seemingly unknown to most, the Story of the Shattered Moon and Legend of the Shattered Desert are closely linked. Long ago, the moon was whole, until out of nowhere, something collided with the moon, shattering it to pieces, sending debris plummeting into the Realm below, and where most shards struck, they eradicated all nearby life, turning the once lush forest into the area that would come to be known as the Shattered Desert. It was this legend that led the Magistrate and Resistance into the desert in the hopes of obtaining this power to defeat the other and end the Crystal War.

Pirate Legend of Judd Roberts[ | ]
As the most feared pirate of the Eight Oceans, Judd Roberts, or also known as Admiral Dredge, ruled the oceans, with even the powerful members of the Resistance being no match for his might on the open waters, the Pirate Legend of Judd Roberts is assumed to be the tales of Judd's might.

Legend of the Sword with No Master[ | ]
The Legend of the Sword with No Master speaks of an ancient blade forged in an age only dimly remembered, said to be forged from the heavens themselves and capable of banishing unspeakable evils, the blade slumbered for a millennia in an ancient temple before reawakening as the village of Seris was destroyed, where it called out for a hero. The tigron warrior Tiberius would be the one to find the blade, with the sword seemingly being sapient and becoming more than a weapon to him, but an ally. Together, the two would battle the Abyssal Lord Raum to a draw.

Legend of the Shadow[ | ]
Every hamlet has its own version of the Legend of the Shadow, whispers of a figure cloaked in shadows, sensed, but rarely seen; even children tell ghost stories of his eyes, that if you see them, it's already too late. No matter the version of this legend, each comes with the same warning: "Do not harm the Ska'drin, lest the shadow strike."
Legend of The Eternal[ | ]
For centuries, the Legend of the Eternal has been passed on, of Azaan, Lord of the Pyre, with it being said that one day, he would rise from his throne to stop a greater evil from taking power. While some hoped for his return, others feared what was to come, wondering what the cost of the Eternal's return would be for the Realm.
Story of the Haunted Forest[ | ]
For eons in the furthest corners of the Realm, residents of a shrouded forest have been exchanging rumors of something wicked they believe to be inhabiting their forests, something they believe to be haunting their ancestral home.
