Aloria has seen a great many brilliant minds, brave warriors, and treacherous dictators across each and every one of its varied continents. Throughout its history, wars have been fought, empires have risen and fallen, and great heroes have been created or slain. However, behind every victory is a victor and behind every demise is a destroyer. You can learn about those who discovered far off lands and invented new technologies, and find out about the people who have grown famous due to their treacherous exploits and fantastical tales, here.

Aloria is full of unique people who work together to progress the world and society. MassiveCraft does not subscribe to the Great Man Theory, that is to say, the worldbuilding is supported by famous people who could not have succeeded without the fundamental structures of the work of others. This page discusses famous people in the context that they are relevant to the Lore to understand certain periods and nuanced through their eyes, not in the sense that they are unique and that the world would have become stagnant if they had not arrived. The world does not return to a slow crawl after the leaps forward produced by these famous people, rather they are more like mascots of a wider collective effort within society or interest groups. Whenever any of these people show up in Roleplay on the server, they are guaranteed to always be DM Characters or Event NPC's.
