Pre-Shattering, [[Adonalsium]] prevented fabrials from existing.{{wob ref|13333}}
During the [[Heraldic Epochs]], the [[Knights Radiant]] knew how to create [[Surge]] fabrials, including [[Soulcaster]]s, healing fabrials, and [[Oathgate]]s. Their knowledge of non-Surge fabrials, which the modern fabrial science concerns itself with, was far less advanced than that of the current scholars.{{book ref|sa3|96}} Some principles, however, were known even then: among others, the lifts in [[Urithiru]] were created with conjoining fabrials.{{book ref|sa3|24}} With the fall of the Radiants, knowledge of most fabrials was lost, with Soulcasters as the major exception. Over time, the stories of Radiant fabrials became vastly exaggerated, with many people believing that they were far more numerous, and much more advanced, than what modern science has created.{{book ref|sa3|96}}
According to [[Nikli]], the original Aimians used devices to terraform Aimia to make it habitable, equating those devices with early fabrials. [[Nikli]] insinuates that the [[scouring of Aimia]] was caused by destruction of these fabrials during a number of wars, perhaps the Desolations, because the islands of Aimia could not sustain life without them. {{book ref|sa3.5|9}}
While the fabrials were known for centuries, it was only recently that the pace of fabrial inventions picked up, with creations such as the heating fabrials and [[spanreed]]s being only a few decades old at most. Most research occurs in the eastern nations of [[Alethkar]] and [[Jah Keved]], with [[Navani Kholin]] as a particularly important patron. [[Half-shard]]s, an important breakthrough in fabrial research that attempts to mimic [[Shardplate]], were only perfected in 1173, at the tail end of the [[Era of Solitude]].{{book ref|sa1|22}}
