As a result of the local geological convulsions and the after effects of the Lemurian cataclysm, the entire continent of Atlantis fragmented and vanished beneath the Atlantic Ocean in about a week.

The Celestials retaliated by causing a nuclear cataclysm, which sank Lemuria and created shockwaves that shook the entire world. At the same time, the Deviants themselves launched the attack on the surviving Second Host of the alien Celestials. First the capital city, and then the entire continent of Atlantis itself was racked by earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The Lemurian invaders were destroyed by the molten lava, but due to unprecedented volcanic pressure beneath the city, the magma release triggered a seismological cataclysm. Finally barbarians from the Lemurian Isles attacked Atlantis on behalf of the Deviant Empire, and to rout their forces King Kamuu opened the magma pits, which were the city's means of heating. The empire was reeling with civil war in all of its provinces and the fighting kept encroaching closer and closer to the capital city. The Atlantean empire had been in a state of decline after Kull's era. Its last rulers were King Kamuu and his wife Queen Zartra, a native of the Lemurian Isles, which had been conquered by the non-human race of Deviants. The last years of ancient Atlantis sought direction of the giant glass-like dome over the capital city of the empire (also called Atlantis). Cleito mated with Poseidon and give birth to five sets of twins, who ruled the ten provinces of Atlantis. Īccording to some accounts, one of the inhabitants of Pre-Cataclysmic Atlantis was a woman called Cleito, the daughter of Evenor. Some time later, Atlantis came to be ruled by Ku-Var, who proclaimed himself ruler after wiping out half the barbarian population of the island and uniting the other half. During Kull's reign, the chieftain Lhok-Nor ruled Atlantis, who offered his daughter Sareena to marry King Kull before her assassination by Wolf Men. Kull was renowned as the slayer of the arch wizard Thulsa Doom, and was the enemy of the Serpent People, nonhuman but humanoid offspring of Set. One of the few is Kull, the barbarian-king of Valusia who fled Atlantis about 500 years before it sank. Few historical personages before the Great Cataclysm are known to date. The Serpent Crown is one of the few artifacts of ancient Atlantis crew survived until modern times.

Ītlantean alchemists created the Serpent Crown, a vessel empowered by the demonic Elder God Set. They exported exotic and otherwise extinct animals across the empire. Atlantean sea vessels reached as far as Antarctica where they discovered the Savage Land which they named Pangea (meaning "paradise").


Ītlantis became the center of a small empire of sailors, craftsmen, traders, astrologers and alchemists. They were often at conflict with the seven "civilized" kingdoms of the Pre-Cataclysmic era (Valusia, Grondar, Commoria, Thule, Verulla, Kamelia, and the Triple Federation), with the islanders of the Pictish Isles, and with the pirates of Lemuria. The Atlanteans were warriors and hunters, divided into various autonomous tribes. Originally, Atlantis was a land of barbarians, one of whom, Kull, left and acquired the throne of the nearby kingdom of Valusia.

The continent where he stood was christened "Atlantis" which simply meant the "Isle of Axis". It was there he condemned the General of the Titans, Atlas, to hold the Heavens aloft as the Axis Mundi, the world Axis.
