History[]

2011-2012[]

Originally, Invader39's story began in 2011 split into three main parts: The Order of Mata Nui, The Order at War and The Order of Heroes. All of these were intended to be stopmotion series'. These all revolved around Orpheus being the main villain and it was Arker's Destiny to stop him.

Many characters in the current incarnation were not in the original, and a few were brought over, most notably Arker, Implex, Skyer, Coltrix, Orpheus, Helryx, Echo and Kinla.

In 2012 the first installment of the story was renamed to The Arker Chronicles, with the intention of it leading into The Order of Heroes and then a final installment. Nine episodes of the original The Arker Chronicles were filmed but without a script, and the entire story was scrapped before being made into the current incarnation.

2013-2014[]

In 2013 The Arker Chronicles would be revived with the writing and filming of a "Prologue" in April 2013, with the writing and filming of the rest of the first season taking place during the rest of the year and concluding in January 2014.

On November 28, 2013, Invader39 would go onto join the wiki and beginning to promote the series. He would also launch the first version of Fallen Heroes and Obscurity, both of which would go through extensive rewrites.

The first episode of The Arker Chronicles would launch on January 22nd, 2014, marking the official start of the saga.

2017-2018[]

In January 2017 the long-running story Obscurity would reach its conclusion after three years of on-and-off releases.

In July 2017 it was decided that Echoes in the Past would be converted into a comic story to make it easier to produce than a stopmotion miniseries, as which it was originally intended.

In September 2017 the side story Reconstruction became the eighth installment in the series and the Master of the Elements trilogy was scrapped.

On October 1, 2017, writing of The Arker Chronicles was completed which allowed work on the final installments in the saga to begin.

In mid-2018 several major developments took place on two of the storyline's longest-developed projects: Fallen Heroes and Haunted Origins. Fallen Heroes, after five years of rewrites, was finally finished, and was published from July 28 to September 15, 2018.

Filming for Haunted Origins also took place at this time, starting in June and concluding on November 11, after six years of development, which included several extensive rewrites and reshoots. It is currently set to be released on November 20, nearly three years after the release of the Prologue in 2015.
