Formed during the destructive reign of a red dragon named Apocalypse, they were wicked knights pledged to an evil dragon. After the demise of Apocalypse, the order moved east from Iglutt. Suffering heavy losses on this journey, they were infiltrated by new recruits, some secretly pledged to Ares. Over the next century, surviving two periods of internal cleansing, the followers of Ares were in control, sending it down a path more honorable, lawful and less brutal.

During the time of Kal-Oni (1016 - 1266), the order's members were mostly Tragaran. After the break-up of Kal-Oni into city-states, the Apocalypse Corps opened its doors to any that could follow the order's tests.

In 1279, the Apocalypse Corps joined an alliance of orders named the Orders of War. With the founding of the Council of Bile in 1282, as member of the Orders of War, the Apocalypse Corps got a seat at the table.

In the Rerkvorg Pacification Campaign (1323 - 1410), the order gained great renown, securing the Vale of Rerkvorg.

The order has a group of blue dragons, all purchased from the dragon cult Tîra-Phâth, that serve as steeds and general wrecking machines.
