It is a world struggling to recover from a Reckoning, brought on by the Dark Magic of a tainted man, and the foul wiles of a Demon. Once strongly in the rule of the Sidhe, the lands of the Elves are now divided and struggling to form new identities. Our characters face both the dark deeds of evil, and the blunders of the misguided good.  Sorcerers fearful of the wrath of the Church, have signed the dark pact, and formed the Nox Arcanum, an order whose mission it has become to defend by all means the study of arcane magic against the transgressions of the Inquisition.On a grander scale it is a world were armies clash, Where the Children of the Dragon Kind plot, and scheme to overthrow there true blood masters. The Ice lord pushes forth his armies of Ice Trolls, Gnomes, and Werebeast’s. The Great Guardian of the Green Llyrandwyn gathers his Condicari (Stag Warriors), and his Forest folk, the Llan, to him to fight the battle with his Elemental father.

Quiet, and alone for most of his early life Sullax was left in the care of his sickly mother who feared the son she had born. Picked on, and bullied throughout his childhood he became sullen, and disconnected from the others in his small town of Hathersage.  It was not until his fourteenth summer, that same summer when first he used his impressive strength to defend himself that Sullax realized his potential. From that day he wreaked havoc on those bullies that had tormented him. Then things went to far, a boy Tomar, one of those who had bullied him the most was found dead.The Town guards looked everywhere for the Drako but Sullax had already fled. Alone and with only his strength to keep him alive Sullax journeyed further into the woods becoming a woodsmen. Living off the bounty of the cold lands around him he constantly moved from land to land running further from his pain and his transgressions.  Falling in with the notorious bandit group the Grey Brotherhood, Sullax ravaged, and molested, beat and burned his way into a position of power in the Brotherhood. Then the law struck and most of the brotherhood lay dead, Sullax barely fleeing into the woods as arrows flew. Fael Tiegore (Was Iredún) - Sired by the Dragon Kryth, to a halfling gypsy Fael has taken much of her fathers personal politics into her life, and mind mixing it with the wild carefree will of her mother.  Plotting to overthrow the Order of her Dragon Overlords Fael has sparked a revolution that is playing to its end. Serving as a Second to the Vile halfblooded nephew of the High King of Drakesbridge, the Rough hearted Coarsuln Tiegore she has begun to gather resources and like minded draconians to her cause.  Adawar Iliandar-son of Lenavesh Iliandar- Sullen, and mysterious Adawar is a “crested” Endan, or an Endan of a Royal line.
