Vorudian [<Vorud, the name of a star seen in the ancient heavens, thought to signal the advent of cataclysms]. The Vorudian Cataclysms are global catastrophes associated with a long period of about three thousand five hundred years after the Flood of Aturyanda. They are recorded in the legends of the dwarves, the Kalamans, the Sungotine Elves, and a few other civilizations sometimes considered Great Flood Survivor Cultures. The Vorudian Cataclysms are so called after Vorud, the dwarven name for a star that legends report glowed with a deep, violet or purple cast during this time. Astronomers have sought to identify the particular star among modern constellations without consensus. The term Vorudian has come to mean anything of immense antiquity, but not so old as the Great Flood.
The Vorudian Cataclysms include the Great Flood, increased volcanic activity, increased draconic activity, and three thousand year lesser re-advancement of glaciation. The Flood of Karuthaya is also included in this period. The time period is roughly 11,800 AS to 8,300 AS. It is sometimes associated with the time before the founding of Tauhad, 8763 AS, although it in fact continued about five hundred years after that event.
Historians and magdeologers hold the Vorudian Cataclysms with mixed acceptance. The concurrence of belief in the two global floods and volcanic activity among the Dwarves, the Kalamans, and the Sungotine Elves is widely accepted among historians as very strong evidence. Magdeologers are less credulous of the legends of these civilizations and find varying degrees of concurrence and discrepancy in the physical record of Asdarah.
