History of the DC Universe: Dawn of Time to 6 BCE

	In the Beginning... was The Source
20 Billion BCE	c. 18 BILLION YEARS AGO
	Perpetua, one of the Hands of Creation, is sent forth by The Source to give brith to new systems of life within the Greater Omniverse. She creates three realms and three brothers to oversee them. A positive matter Multiverse to be overseen by Mar Novu; a dark matter Multiverse, to be overseen by Alpheus, the World Forger, and an antimatter Universe to be overseen by the Mobius, the Anti-Monitor.
	Before the creation of the universe The Presence/YHVH/The Voice creates a being to keep him company, someone to talk to about his plans. When The Presence told him of his plans to create a race of beings with the capacity of free will, he disagreed with the notion and was cast out. This being would later become known as The First of the Fallen.
	Having completed her task in the act of creation, Perpetua sought to build an army to fight the Judges of the Source so that she could live forever. Her children rebelled and Perpetua was sealed in a Source Wall which blocked of her creation from the rest of the greater Omniverse, and the universe was restarted...
	In the Beginning... The universe is created, formed of vapor and forged with fire. Great energies are born and just as quickly dies as that which was formless struggles to find a form, and that which is without reason seeks purpose. Out of this is born that which is eternal, that which is all and beyond all... The Source. This point in time is often referred to as the "First World".
	Shortly after the creation of the universe, when The Voice first opens its mouth it creates The Word, one of the seven deadly aspects of The Voice itself. Before it is ever spoken aloud, the word was traced by the hand of the Endless known as Destiny on the first pages of his book.
	The next three of the Endless to come into existence are Death, Dream, and Destruction. It is known that Destruction, the youngest of the three, come into being as the first sentient beings emerge in the universe.
	At the moment of creation the two eternal elemental forces known as Order and Chaos also come into existence.
	Born of the energy that was released in the Big Bang, the entities known as the Aurakles come into being at this time.
	At some undisclosed point early in the creation of the universe, however after the first four of the Endless, the Archangels known as Michael, Samael, Gabriel, Uriel, Raphael, Saraqael, and Raguel come into existence. Michael was tasked with releasing the power from within his heart, Samael with weaving these powers into suns, and Gabriel with imposing form and patter on the worlds as they cool.
	Using his special time-bending device Krona gazes unto the beginning of the universe from 4.4 Billion BCE and ends up unleashing the Anti-Matter Universe.
	The time-travelling Spectre finally succeeds in defeating Shathan.
	After 1 billion years one-third of the angels of Heaven, led by Lucifer Morningstar, rebel against their creator and are banished to the metaphysical realm that will one day become known as Hell.
	At some undisclosed time the being later known as Eclipso was chosen to act as the Vengeance of God.

	c. 4 BILLION BCE
	4 Billion four-hundred thouasand years ago, Renegade Oan scientist Krona builds a time-bending device in order to delve into the one area of science forbidden to all Maltusians/Oans: the origins of the universe itself. As he uses the device to see the very beginning of the universe a terrible cosmic bolt splinters the device and Krona somehow and ends up retroactively altering history as the Anti-Matter Universe is created at the dawn of time. With the unleashing of the Anti-Matter Universe came a wave of evil that spread throughout fifty million worlds. Note: More recently it has been suggested that what Krona did opened up a link between the Matter and Anti-Matter Universes, that let the energies of the Anti-Matter Universe spread into the Positive Matter Universe. Realizing that the origin was blocked from his probing Krona build another time-bending device and tried to look into the beginning by looking past the end. Due to the intervention of the Maultusian known as Dawlakispokpok and the Zamaron known as Thwarcharchura Krona ends up linking past and future together, releasing entropy in the universe.
	To atone for the sins of Krona, the advanced beings from Maltus known as the Oans establish a base on a planet which exists in the central cluster where Krona's curse began. They name the planet Oa and begin their role as the Guardians of the Universe.
	Life emerges on the twin worlds of Apokolips and New Genesis and new civilizations are build with astonishing speed.
	Demons rule the Earth for millions of years, until their evil come to the attention of the beings known as the Timeless Ones who then banish them from the Earthly plane to the metaphysical realm of Hell.

In order to restore order in the universe the Guardians create the Central Power Battery. Storing pure willpower collected from throughout the universe the Central Power Battery combine and amplify their mental energies. The Guardians experiment on a number of lizards in an attempt to create the perfect warrior. The experiment is later abandoned and the genetically altered lizards are left to themselves and will later evolve to the species known as the Psions. Following the their failed experiments the Guardians then create the android Manhunters to protect the emerging races of the Universe.
	c. 3 BILLION BCE
	Chased by both the Manhunters and the Guardians of the Universe after stealing a box from Maltus, a thief named Larfleeze flees to Okaara in the Vega System. Here he discovers the Orange Lantern. The Guardians make him a deal to leave the Vega System free of their interferance if they get the box and the Orange light stays within the system.
	The Manhunters eventually come to the conclusion that for there will only be order in the universe if all life is eradicated, leading to the Massacre of Sector 666. Only five beings survive the massacre and will later be known as the Five Inversions.
	The massacre initiates a thousand year war against the Guardians of the Universe. The Manhunters are eventually defeated and returned weaponless to the planets they had originally been assigned to.
	A fraction of Guardians disagree with the handling of the Manhunter situation and decide to leave Oa and would later become known as the Controllers. The devastation left behind by the Manhunters attack leave the women of Oa dissatisfied with the Guardians and their attempts at playing gods.
	The Guardians run test cases on a pre-Green Lantern Corps. Deeming the test successful they form the Green Lantern Corps, a group of 3600 sentient beings, each assigned to protecting a specific sector of the known Universe. The Guardians send out incredibly powerful teaching machines, such as the Green Glob.
	c. 2.5 BILLION BCE
	The women of Oa, now following the old teachings of Zamar, searching to embrace their emotions rather than abandoning them, decide to leave Oa in search of new lovers which they will eventually find on Korugar. Legend tells that they used their mental powers to purge themselves of their blue energies and store them in a manner known only to themselves. Instead they augmented their crimson energies and by mingling it with the blue energy in the facets of Star Sapphires, which gave them control of the Violet Light that enabled them to conquer another world and become the Warriors of Zamaron. Later revelations suggest that this might have been a tale told to hide the true origins of the Violet Light of the Star Sapphires. That, instead, the female tribe of Oa had discovered the heart of the Violet Light on a crystalized planet they would name Zamaron and forge into their own, themselves becoming known as Zamarons.
