description: The darkness is coming. Wilmurin was once home to a race of vile and sadistic elves who ruled over the humans (druids), until one day, one human led the druids into a rebellion against their elvish overseers. A long war followed and the humans won, the elves became extinct and the druids ruled supreme. As a reward for their hard fought victory, the druid god, Drugar, granted the leading families of the clans the power to become shape-shifters, using the animal that represents that clan as a different skin; larger than average bears, wolves, giant black widow spiders and more. Five hundred years later a darkness is about to come to Wilmurin that has not been seen for decades. The druids are unprepared for this coming darkness, a blood thirsty vampire lord called Count Darkool leading a vast army of undead. The only one who can stop him is Johan, a man thrust into Wilmurin from our world. Johan and new found friends and allies must find a way to stop Count Darkool before it is too late. War is coming.
