As requested, here is an individual topic for the Chima Fanon RP timeline, and any subsequent additions to it.
Legends of Chima Fanon RP Timeline BR= Before Rolelay CRT= Current Roleplay Time
Millions of years BR
• Animals are evolved from microscopic organisms over millions of years.
2,012—2,000 BR
• As the climate is unbalanced, the dragons and snow leopards are created pre-evolved to control the elements.
• Both tribes build castles on tall mountains to watch over the unevolved animals of Chima.
2,000 BR—1,000 BR
• The First Great Earthquake occurs, causing magical energy to rise from cracks in the earth; a huge crack appears in Cavora, and tons of energy comes out of it; the earthquake causes the primitive turtles' home island to be destroyed, so they migrate to Chima; the earthquake destroys Dragon HQ, giving the Dragon King a grudge against nature.
• Over the course of 1,000 years, many turtles stay on land and evolve into tortoises and pond/lake/river turtles; the dragons become antisocial and move into a large cavern, but still exist in peace with the snow leopards.
1,000—20 BR
• The Second Great Earthquake occurs, completely ripping Mount Cavora out of the ground and causing water to fall from it; the released energy from the First Great Earthquake falls back to Chima, but fuses with Cavora's water and some of the ocean water, creating chi; the animals drink the chi and are evolved; the sea turtles create rivers from the ocean, providing chi to animals far from Cavora; Tyron unites all the turtles and tortoises as one tribe, and is crowned king as a result; the dragons combine the energy with their power, creating Fire Chi, which amplifies their control over the element.
• The Dragons go mad with power and attack all the other tribes; the Snow Leopards create Ice Chi, amplifying their own power, and eventually freeze the Dragons underground.
• The Turtles build their HQ, and Typhoon eventually becomes the Turtle Tribe 2ic (see his backstory); the Snow Leopards continue to watch over the tribes, and give Ice Chi to those worthy.
[Continued next post because of the character limit.]
• At some point, a faction builds a base within the grounded part of Cavora; due to the neutrality of this area agreed upon by the tribes, the peoples of Chima force this faction out of Cavora.
• Over the centuries, dimensional portals created by an unknown source appear and disappear randomly, leaving member of various species' from other dimensions trapped in Chima; these species' naturally drink the chi, evolve, and multiply, forming their own tribes.
• One of the foreign tribes, the Flygons, manage to create an experimental new type of chi: "Eternal Chi", which lasts forever, unlike all other types of chi; the Flygons use the Eternal Chi to power their new ships, only for the highly unstable chi to send the entire Flygon Fleet far across the ocean by itself.
• On Ferret Island, a gang is formed from various species': weasels, ferrets, stoats, and mink; the gang is exiled from the island at some point; They eventually return, only to find it in ruins after an attack by Chima's pirates, the Mice; now calling themselves the Rogue Brotherhood, the multi-species gang follows the Mice to Chima.
• The Mice return to the sea at some point, where they find and claim the Eternal Chi-powered Flygon Fleet.
20 BR—CRT • A few wars occur between different tribes, but there are no huge wars involving all the tribes; there is a decent stretch of time in which the tribes are at peace.
• Snow Leopard King Leonardo begins working with Kyuru Koldheart to solve the mystery of the dimensional portals, which still occasionally appear; the Snow Leopards eventually ally with Kyuru's faction as a result, granting them Ice Chi.
• The Turtles prove themselves worthy of Ice Chi from the Snow Leopards just before the events of the Roleplay begin.
The Chima Fanon Roleplay
• With tensions high between the tribes for various reasons, and the Desert Tribes (Flygons, Snakes, and Pygmy Owls) being the only multi-tribe alliance, the Turtles ally with the Aquilines (Golden Eagles); the Aggrons, who have very rocky relations with the Desert Tribes, consider allying with the Turtles as well.
[Continued next post because of the character limit.]
• Kyuru meets back up with Leonardo, and they resume their investigation into the dimensional portals.
• A strange and powerful meteor crashes in Turtle territory, and the Flygons come to request that what remains of it be given to them; the turtles hand it over, but not before Turtle Scientists bioengineer the meteor mineral to be incapable of doing damage to members of the turtle and tortious species'; the Flygons use the meteor mineral to power an extremely powerful war machine.
• A rogue faction of Flygons attacks the Koopas' forest, causing a misunderstanding that results in the Koopas declaring the Flygon Tribe an enemy.
• After twenty years of planning, the Piranhas make their move, attacking the Turtles and starting what will become the Chima Civil War; the Piranhas catch the Turtles off guard and almost defeat them, but Piranha second-in-command Pirex attempts to backstab King Piratox; the Turtles and Aquilines push the Piranhas into retreat, but not before Piratox puts an end to Pirex's attempted coup.
• Pirex is found, revived, and controlled by the Snakes' alchemist and potion master, Saleem al-Yousif, who has finally created a reanimation potion; Saleem plans to takeover the Snake Tribe, as he believes its current leadership to be incompetent.
• As Kyuru and Leonardo investigate the dimensional portals, the Flygon King, Flygarra, begins to remember his life before his arrival to Chima.
• The Desert Tribes declare war on the Aggrons, and nearly destroy the Aggrons' Capitol with their meteor-powered cannon; Flygarra then regrets his actions and abandons his own post; with their king having disappeared, the Flygons split into multiple factions, erupting into a chaotic civil war, and the Desert Tribes' alliance starts to fall apart; Saleem al-Yousif resurrects many Flygons who'd fallen in the war, building an undead army.
• Soon after a mysterious boat crashes in the desert, letting loose a chupacabra, a multi-species faction called Paradigm is formed in the desert, and succeeds in taking over the Cat Tribe, which had been neutral to a point.
[Continued next post because of the character limit.]
• In Flygon helicopters, Saleem and his army find the Eternal Chi-powered Flygon Fleet; Saleem and his zombies battle the Mice for the ships, and win; they find that the Eternal Chi orbs have been fused into the various sockets in the ships, and the presence of the Eternal Chi causes Pirex to break free of Saleem's control, escaping.
• Now prepared for battle, the Turtles and Aquilines launch their counter-offensive, attacking the Piranhas' various outposts in the rainforest, and even the Piranha HQ itself; during the battle, Pirex infiltrates the Temple of Teeth and fights Piratox; Piratox can no longer injure or incapacitate the zombie Pirex, and Pirex slays Piratox, taking over the Piranha Tribe, which soon manages to push the Turtles and Aquilines out of the rainforest; Piratox is promptly revived by Saleem, and the former Piranha King agrees to ally with Saleem, after Piratox and Saleem take over the Piranha and Snake tribes, respectively; Piratox, confident due to his new "immortal" status, goes to Turtle territory to declare a duel to the end with Tyron.
• The Piranha Duke, Ppyrr, seeks his sister the Duchess, to talk to her about the Piranha Tribe's new leadership; the Snake and Pygmy Owl Queens try to restore order to the Desert Tribes and find Flygarra, while another group of snakes arises, planning on conquering the tribe.
• Paradigm arrives at the grounded part of Mount Cavora, and they enter the abandoned underground fortress there; Kyuru finds out about this, sending her troops to find out what Paradigm is doing there, and a battle ensues, soon after a member of Paradigm seemingly turns on his teammates.
And that's as far as the timeline goes for now.
---------------------------------------------- As you can see, I've added a ton of stuff to the timeline: the lore we've come up with since starting the RP, as well as the events of the RP itself. I tried to mention every really big event that's happened in the Roleplay, but keep in mind that I was summarizing the events by memory, so I might've missed some stuff.
• At some point, a faction builds a base within the grounded part of Cavora; due to the neutrality of this area agreed upon by the tribes, the peoples of Chima force this faction out of Cavora.

I think all Turtle/Tortise-like Pokemon may have appeared with those same dimensional portals too that carried over Kyuru, the five other Pokemon that care and administer Kyuru, and the Aggrons. And with the Poke-turtles and due to their similarities with the rest of the “normal” turtles, i guess the current turtle leader at that time let them join the tribe, right? Just want to clarifying some things with you and ask some questions.
also with the “Eternal Chi” you made, it really reminded me of a lore thing in Pokemon OR/AS’s Delta Episode being called “Infinity Energy”.
• Kyuru meets back up with Leonardo, and they resume their investigation into the dimensional portals.

Splatoon Lore (this is sort of a mix of canon and fanon by the way)
Thousands of years BR
Squids and octopi moved onto land and began evolving with Chi. After being fully evolved into Inklings and Octolings, they form an Octo-Inkling tribe.
Unknown time
Other sea creatures take the Chi and join the tribe, such as urchins, anemones, sea slugs, jellyfish and crabs.
102 BR
Inklings' and Octolings' relationship falters and breaks as the Great Turf War splits them apart. Cap'n Cuttlefish leads the Inklings, and DJ Octavio the Octolings. The Inklings follow the path of good, while the soon brainwashed Octarian Army begins fighting for evil.
A few years BR
An unknown hero known as "Agent 3" defeats DJ Octavio, and thanks to a special melody, courtesy of the famous "Squid Sisters," being played over Octavio's psychedelic beats, many Octolings wake up, their souls freed from Octavio's oppression. Their lives changed, they begin heading for the surface. One is Marina Ida, who goes on to become a pop sensation.
Not long BR
DJ Octavio captures a member of the Squid Sisters a couple years later, but is then once again defeated by an "Agent 4."
At around the same time, the secretive Kamabo Corporation is exposed and defeated by an amnesiac "Agent 8."
Present Day
Inklings and defected Octolings live in peace, having friendly relations with each other. However, not every Octoling defected, and there are still many loyalists.
Being not much more than mere tentacle creatures, built to follow orders, many non-humanoid Octarians long to steal the Chi so they can evolve into something greater. Loyalist Octolings join them in their quest, supporting them and wanting to become stronger themselves.
(Note to The J- can Inkopolis be an actual location or should I create a new city?)
