[THE ACTUAL PLOT from the PLOT Thread!]
Wer'Laus is a fractious and war-stricken world, and standing alone can be deadly. To survive and prosper, members of all races gather together along cultural and ideological lines. However, as of late races have taken on the role of two alliances. The Blood, and the Woodland. Each of these factions holds to a unique philosophy; and they often disagree with one another – violently. Yet, despite the danger, those who are willing to take the risk and shed their own blood are certainly rewarded.
Named in honor of the legendary Orgrim Doomhammer, Orgrimar was founded to be the capital city of Wer'Laus. In the center a great Yggdrassil tree grows making all life flourish in Wer'Laus. However, the villagers of the Woodland alliance have noticed it starting to die. Behind the immense walls of Ogrimrar the shamans that have been passing down customs have started to perish. They believe the Crusade Queen has started trouble again.
Far beneath the ruined capital city of Ogrimrar, the royal crypts have been turned into a bastion of evil and undeath. The undercity's dedging twisted maze of catacombes and dungeons is lead by a dark power that is thought to be the cause of the war stricken world. Her name is feared by most but she often goes by Thantas or the Crusade queen.
Thantas’s fear and resolve proved to be her ultimate undoing. Instead, Queen Thantas eventually fell prey to the Demon King’s tremendous power. Her soul was eaten and forever darkened. The Demon King knew he was going to pass and needed another to continue to wreck havoc upon the world. Thantas agreed to give up her soul thinking it would do good for the Woodland and Blood alliance. She hoped to create peace, but with each day her soul darkened and she did just the opposite.
Aided by lieutenants, The woodland alliance refused to let the one thing that kept life thriving die. Nor did they want the corrupted soul of Thantas to kill what the shamans have passed on for centuries. The Woodland Alliance succeeded in gaining the support of the dark hearted Blood alliance. On a stormy night in the village square in a tavern. Those generals leading the two alliances together decided to attack.
The epic battles of the Second War ranged from large-scale naval skirmishes to massive aerial dogfights. Somehow the Blood alliance (those who didn't ally with the Woodland) had unearthed a powerful artifact known as the Demon Soul. It was a relic that came to be when the Demon King turned the soul of Thantas. The Blood Alliance used it to enslave the ancient Magicks that would destroy the Woodland alliance nearly instantly.
As of late the Second War turned buildings to rubble , and plants to dust. Thantas discovered recently that as races die, their souls could be consumed. Each soul that Thantas consumed lead to a greater power. However soon the restless souls of the fallen weren't enough. She needed something more powerful. Thantas found what she was looking for. However, the same area may hold the secret to defeating her. Will you you join the fray and help find a way to save the souls of the fallen? Or will you fall trying to protect your people?
