[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 3782616, member: 2012"] [B]Demon Lord[/B] [COLOR=DarkOrange][B][SIZE=5]Wyrknari Vok, Demon Lord of the Darkened Trees[/SIZE][/B][/COLOR] In 748 N.C., the Therani elders of the forest elf clans cut off the Knotwood from the rest of Harqual. They used High Magic spells to place powerful wards near the edge of the forest to warn of human encroachment into the woods and ward off any creatures that they felt were a threat to their people. However, some of the more radical members of that clan took matters into their own hands and placed wards of their own using the Forbidden Art. This was against everything that forest elves stood for and was kept secret from the Therani elders. Then a truly insane sorcerer, named [B]Wrykir[/B], gated a powerful demon directly into his home early in the year of 749 N.C. The wards placed over a thousand years ago to prevent this sort of thing fizzled due to the epic, dark magic he used. He then bound the demon to his service and started using his new ally to destroy his rivals. When word of this came to the attention of the Clan Council of the Knotwood, they were shocked. Even more so when they realized how far the corruption had spread. They immediately sent several clerics and sorcerers to destroy the defilers. While most of the evil forest elves were wiped out, Wrykir refused to surrender. He cast two powerful necromancy-based epic spells to ensure his survival and victory.

This allowed him to exert his will on the other clans, and he set them loose on the council. By day’s end, most of the council members had either been slain or transformed into blood elves. Then he used a powerful epic spell he created, [I]Dark Wish[/I], to merge himself with the demon he summoned. The two minds struggled for control but eventually merged into one mind. This being named itself [B]Wyrknari Vok[/B]. It then started summoning other powerful demons into its service to start conquering the entire Knotwood. It slaughtered or devoured all that opposed it and corrupted half the clans in less than a month. Since the fall of the Knotwood, Wyrknari Vok and his blood elf thralls have claimed a large section of the southern half of the Great Forest along the northwestern shore of Lake Qualitian to the western edge of the forest and beyond into the Ruined March. They threaten not only the lands of the Sword Gulf Coast and northern half of the Great Forest, but also the Eastern Shores and Thunder Lands. Blood elves constantly invade the lands around what has become known as the [B]Darkened Trees of Narda'taur[/B]. While the fey'ri demon lord's cult is only in its infancy, it has grown strong throughout the southern half of the Great Forest and the western half of the Thunder Lands.
