The Blood War comes to Wydris
In the temperate south, behind the Emperors Wall, rest the twin empires of Seres and Dachin. Beyond
the Wall lays the Free Kingdom, a collection of independent city-states scattered across this lawless
frontier and further north, the Untamed Lands - a realm of barbarians and monsters. At the very tip of
the north is the Vortex, and it is here that the Blood War entered the world in the form of the Demon,
General Mazzaker who pushed his forces onto the barbarians of the north, crafting a mighty horde. As
Mazzaker, presses against Free Kingdom, by default the Twin Empires find themselves aligned with the
Devils and the forces of Law.
The War of the Rats
From behind their walls, the Twin Empires paid and committed mercenaries to the defense of the
crossroads city of Rattenstadht - key to much traffic in the Free Kingdom. While bogging down in the
city, the Lawful forces stalled the movements and forced the attention of Demon-aligned companies -
resulting in street-to-street fighting in the city between Chaos and Law aligned soldiers of fortune.
Dubbed the War of the Rats, should the forces of Law win this battle, the armies of the Twin Empires
may march forth to the defense of the Free Kingdom. But a Chaotic victory will quickly bring the
Demonic hordes to the walls of Seres and Dachin.
Secret History: The Ancient Empire
It is no accident that the Blood War has come to Wydis. Ages ago, the entire continent was populated by
savage, cave-dwelling tribes. The first kings amongst these tribes were Warlocks who heard the
whispers of Devils in their fires at night and struck bargains with them. Through the Warlock-Kings, the
Devils constructed a continent-spanning empire of magic, and its crowning achievement was the Vortex
- a gateway directly into the bowls of the abyss, allowing the Devil armies to storm the very heart of the
Demon’s home. Unfortunately, all did not go as planned. No sooner was the Vortex opened, than the
unpredictable energies of the Abyss made the gateway unpredictable. It quickly spewed out a Demonic
horde, destroying the Warlock-Kings empire, but moments after began to unpredictable fluctuate -
opening and closing at random times and with unpredictable force (though never as fiercely as its initial
outburst).
Over time, the Demons were slain, bound or driven through the Vortex. But civilization only reasserted
itself to the south of Wydis as the Twin Empires rose. The presence of the Vortex ensured the north to
be wild and unpredictable, seemingly forever. And as it did, the Tanarukk General Mazzaker - one of the
few Demons left the in the world - watched the rise of barbarians hordes mightier than any civilized
force and hungers for the glory of war.
