Last Night of Mournhammer (OOC)

[Darkblade 12]

Backstory

As the viscious army of Bleak Wind, their ranks filled with lizard men and the so called High Elf, their soldiers march on to Mournhammer, the warriors and conscripted civilians prepare for battle.

The injured King Nathaniel remains vigilant that his own army will succed in defending the castle. Despite this, he worries on the whereabouts of his daughter Rosa, his only heir.

 

Mournhammer, the great city on the Endrathisa continent, known well for its trade of fabrics and weaponry, it slowly became the enemy of the Bleak Wind armies, with Mournhammer slowly expanding its borders into Bleak Wind's stolen territory, Mournhammer slowly started to lose allies.

 

Races:

 

Human: Originally, there was no human race, but a single being known as Vessel, upon its death, split itself into a thousand pieces, from those pieces, the human race was born.

Scientifically, its currently proposed that Endrathisa is the native land of the humans, shared with the now near extinct Dwarven race.

 

Lizard : Also known as the Skrelten, the Lizard people are said to have originally been individuals of the other races, but became cursed and slowly transformed to their lizard state.

The Skulten are from Tidewell, a city on the Cursed Continent, Humans do not travel to such a place.

They worship no higher being as they are not dependant or interested on such things.

 

High Elf : The Elven race, said to have been around long before The Birth Of Humanity. High Elf worship a being known as Wish, Wish is said to have grown tired of the cold world and wanted something to watch over, so it created a race of people and the lands they would inhabit.

There were once multiple Elven races but the High Elves eradicated them all long ago for unexplainable reasons.

High Elves inhabit the Cursed Continent.

 

Dwarf: The Dwarven people are story tellers by nature and enjoy tales longer than their beards just as much as travel and adventure. Dwarves share Endrathisa with the Humans and are glad to do so, Dwarves love human culture and adopt much of it for themselves, so much so that they more or less have very little of their own.

The Dwarven race is now declining and much of this is thought to be because of their reckless nature.

 

 

Endrathisa:

Endrathisa is home to several cities, the most populated being Mournhammer.

Other popular places include: Saffron Town, now a mostly dwarven town once popular for its mining of steel. Lockwind, thousands of years worth of history, once said to be home to the great wizards who were constantly challenged by Vessel.

 

The Cursed Continent:

The closer you get to the Cursed Continent, the sicker you are said to become. At least for Humans, Dwarven folk are known to have made their way there and back, usually mostly alive.

The skies become grey and the sight of large dome like structures fill the horizon. The Dwarven adventurers can't explain them.

Hopefully, this takes off, seems like the Role Playing interest has been dead for a while (not much interest in my previous topic seeing if anyone is up for such things, but maybe this time!)

 

If ya'll need any answers for things, feel free to ask, especially on the topic of developing the setting, I love that stuff!

I haven't done this sort of thing in literal years, so forgive me if I left out something that would be deemed important or traditional
