History

Creation

The Millennium Tome was a book containing forms of magic, including shadow alchemy which could create the Millennium Items, which granted the users power[1] and were also capable of conducting a Dark Contract that would revive Zorc Necrophades. Zorc knew that if people possessed the Millennium Items, they would one day fight among themselves and one of them would be ambitious enough to use their powers to release him.[2] The book was passed down by High Priests of Egypt since ancient times.[1]

When Akhenamkhanen was Pharaoh, his kingdom's Priests had spent a hundred years working on translating its text. By that time foreign armies had heard of the Tome and started an invasion to claim its power. Akhenamkhanen's brother, Akhenaden finished the translation and made preparations to conduct the shadow alchemy to create seven powerful treasures. He then pleaded with Akhenamkhanen to sanction their creation in order to fend off the invaders, who were days away from storming the palace, and Akhenamkhanen reluctantly accepted.[1]

Akhenaden deliberately neglected to tell Akhenamkhanen that the shadow alchemy had a cost of ninety nine human lives, knowing he would not approve. Akhenaden, along with three magicians and a number of soldiers went to Kul Elna, which had a reputation as being a village of thieves. They killed a number of villagers to turn base substances into gold, which was forged into the Millennium Items in the tablet.[1]

Akhenamkhanen's reign

The original Millennium Item holders

Akhenaden and his conspirators returned to the palace, where the holders of the Millennium Items were chosen.[1]

Seven days after the Millennium Items' creation, the foreign armies arrived at the palace. The Pharaoh and Priests used the Millennium Items to summon ka that easily defeated the invaders.[1]

Akhenamkhanen learned the truth of how the Items were created from Mahado, which caused him to fall ill and eventually die.[3]

History of possession

The Millennium Items changed holders a number of times.

For simplicity, instances of Dark Yugi, Dark Bakura, Dark Marik, and Corrupted Aigami possessing Items are only noted by their hosts in the table below. People who took the Millennium Puzzle for extremely temporary periods of time are not listed, but can still be seen at Millennium Puzzle (manga) § History of possession.
