He used his magic to break the unwilling and forces every creature and person living in the [[Shadow Lands]] to his will. There he first created his ultimate plan to destroy the world as it is currently known, he would abolish the realms and social orders and out of the ashes of the old world a new one would arise, with him as its creator and formed to his masters dreams, with no war or diseases. The key of this new world would be a new race, one that is a mixture of all other races. To create this race he started a series of experiments, but soon he was out of test subjects. So he sent out his servants to find him more.

The Imminent Doom is a period of war amongst the largest realms of Arath. This page tells the story of what happened beside the characters and what might happen in the future.

Prologue

150 years before The Imminent Doom even begins a young wizard, by the name of Blaidd Drwg, looses his much loved master. With his last breath the master ask Blaidd Drwg to find peace amongst the races.

So he set out to talk and manipulate the different rulers and councils of the world, focusing on the ones that were at war with each other. But soon he gets the nick name Bad Wolf, as he keeps on going from capital to capital not regarding the intelligence that might spread with it. So he is soon seen as a double agent by all of the realms. This continuous mistreatment, unbelieving and being called bad for trying to do good, starts to grow in him and he starts to act like it. He then stops to try to mediate between the realms and vanishes.

In this self proclaimed banishment he went to Duskcairn, where he build his tower and own little kingdom. He used his magic to break the unwilling and forces every creature and person living in the Shadow Lands to his will. There he first created his ultimate plan to destroy the world as it is currently known, he would abolish the realms and social orders and out of the ashes of the old world a new one would arise, with him as its creator and formed to his masters dreams, with no war or diseases.

Conquest of Dostrait

Dostrait is one of northern trading centres for the Dwarven Republic. This is why the elves want to establish a beach head there to slowly cut of the northern trade. This venture fails, as the elves have to sail past Darnach Islet and then ride the stream south.

As this was expected they only sent a small force, to disrupt the northern border.

Liberation of Dostrait

Dostrait is in the process to rekindle an old flame of liberation. Plans are being prepared to revive the old resistance group Direstrait. But first trade must be revived to get money for the liberation. Though the current Governor of Dostrait has a lot of money, he makes sure that this is not known, even to his only son. This is why he has to keep up the charade and wait for trade to flourish.

But his plans did not go unnoticed.

  • Blaidd Drwg turns up at his court, persuading him that actions have to be pushed, as long as the Dwarven Republic is busy south and east. In order not to be found he disguises himself as an old servant.
  • The Dwarven Republic have sent a small garrison of human soldiers loyal to them north to hide in Eastbreak, as the mayor there has asked for their help against this soon to come rebellion.
  • Some Goblins see easy loot, as they have heard of the governor's riches. So they sent out a few scouts which have already reached Direward.
