Duevalar was created at the command of Verenha, who had held a great fascination in Muana's creation, though their creation was fuelled also by Elethaor's jealousy over the life that Tantus had created. Duevalar was intended to create a new form of life in the new material planes; in fulfilling this goal, Duevalar created a plethora of mortal lifeforms that have occupied the material planes across time.
