[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 5645012, member: 36150"] Varnaag throws an angry grin towards Cort. [COLOR=Plum]"Indeed."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Plum]"To answer your question, I was lord and master of a humanoid horde of great size. I raised a castle in a wasteland cursed by some great and ancient Dragon of ineffable evil, perhaps born of Chaos itself. I took it upon myself to unite the orcs, goblinoids, and gnolls under one banner and lay siege to the great mountain under which it lay." [/COLOR] Varnaag rose to his feet upon the floating carpet and continued, staring the sword wielders in their faces. [COLOR=Plum]"Within the mountain we found an ancient Dwarven home, one which the nearby Dwarves had wished returned to them. We took their stronghold and used it and the ancient home as our base of operations from then on."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Plum]"We plunged ever deeper into the mountain's heart. We found Drow, and Duergar, and soon we found dragon-spawn, creatures who were half-dragon and half... something else. Dragons are notoriously prolific, especially the ones who can change their shape. Half-dragon spiders, salamanders, giants... nothing was safe from the Chaos Beast's loins."[/COLOR] [COLOR=Plum]"And then we came upon the end of our year's journey.
