Redemption
The half-orc that moved with obvious determination through the massive Bureaucratic Palace of Jordrakenschloss was not the sort of minor-ranking lackey that could be easily dismissed or not noticed. His name was Ferrik, and he had been working his way up through the ranks within the Office of Diplomacy. He was not particularly gifted in … Continue reading Redemption
A Flurry of Activity
Leopold Voûteacier was a long and somewhat noble sounding name. It was perhaps strange to think that it currently belonged to the small millipede that was now scurrying along a smooth stone floor in a dungeon deep beneath a ruined castle. It would not be odd though if a person knew what sort of entity … Continue reading A Flurry of Activity

Infamous Villains: Lyllyth
One of the most horrific and vile monsters to ever creep across Partum is the nearly indescribably evil pagan priestess known as Lyllyth.
