Are tale begins in the land of Ottmar. One of the larger nations with in the Umara region. 50 years ago a terrible an ancient red dragon laid waste to the captial city slaying the senate and declaring himself ruler of the land.
His rule was short lived a scant few months later he was slain by a group of adventures.
The damage however had already been done. The land was plunged into a 20 year civil war. Feuding warlords battled for control of the land. Plague, famine and war swept the country.
It was into this land a human boy named William was born. He inlisted into the service of a local warlord, Morlock at a young age of
His skill and prowless quickly grew, as did his rank in Morlock's army. Victory after victory all credited to William, many of Morlocks men decided to swear aligence to him instead. Morlock did not look to kindly on this hired assassins to have William and those loyal to him killed.
As William lay dying from the posioned wound. His loyal men also sentence to death dying around him the vision of Blackhand appeared before him.
"Swear to serve me and i shall save your life" he said.
"NO, I'll never serve a black hearted bastard like you"
"Swear to serve me and I can save your men as well"
William paused and the dark god new he had him
"I can offer you power. You can rule these lands all the lands of Ottmar, end the fighting, bring order and prosperity to the land once again, I can give you the power to put things right, just swear to praise my name."
William rose from wear he lay. He quickly cut down the assasins like blades of grass. Leading the charge with his men they stormed Morlock's keep and claimed it as thier own. Morlocks head was displaded on a pike upon the walls.
William's army grew quickly and in a few years he brought and end to the civil war. He was now King of Ottmar.
But he was not the same man he was before. Courpted the Lord of Tyrants himself. The lands of Ottmar went from civil war to the Dark Lords hands.
