Danzar-Khâls Surveyor is a legendary artifact forged during an era of creation, the Dawn Era, with the purpose of helping in the task of creation. Danzar-Khâl and Bruh Kreniik built the device to contain and control life energy so as to deliberately create life forms.

Danzar-Khâl made this surveyor's implement to ease the task of creation, for as a Creationist he had the title but not the skill to make something remarkable - instead turning out crude life forms like the Galeb-Duhr.

It took the forging skill of a master to meld it's blutium and mithril into a single piece and then an enchantment known only by Bruh Kreniik to give it the magic to guide old Danzar-Khâl in the art of making something wonderful.

Yet in my hands I wield it with the deft of an kriavian elf and with the grace of Silvanus's dryads.

- Set, from the Imperod Codex - "Rise of the Khazarkars"

After creating dozens of lesser life forms with Danzar-Khâls Surveyor, Danzar-Khâl put it to task by creating his first sentient race. Since this was his first attempt at creating a humanoid with all its complexities, he decided that it would be easier to model them on himself. Using oneself as a model was nothing new among those with the powers of creation for Bruh Kreniik made the dragons in his likeness, Piranoth with the giants, Lukoon with the Tragarans, and others followed this technique.

In the God Era, Set stole Danzar-Khâls Surveyor, used it to create the three races that make-up the Khazarkar. It took three centuries for Danzar-Khâl to track down Set, resulting in the Otriring Rebalancing.

You lack the wisdom learned from centuries of creation. The result, three races that are castes, with two serving one. They will be a troublesome people.

Set is said to have replied, they are my people in the way I envision them, just like the dwarves modeled on you, forged out of primordial muck.

After the artifact was back in Danzar-Khâl's possession, he decided to lock it away behind a series of vaults and then hide the entire structure somewhere in the endless expanse of the Void.
