The Great Slaughter

In 783AD the IV and IX Legions of Clan Kormak were sent to the city of Pithos. The city had called for Clan aid against the horde of monsters rampaging across the mainland. In response Warmaster Kar Ashcaller send those 2 Legions.
The Legions were delayed by a storm and by the time they arrived the gates were already open and the horde of monster poured in. The IX Legion charged in first led by Ermak the Eradicator closely followed by the IV legion led by Vigfus StrongFang. Within a few hours the Legions had crushed the monster horde but their bloodlust wasn't satisfied. No one knows what started it, but once the slaughter begun, it never stopped. They razed Pithos that day and everyone in it, 80,000 people lived there.
Upon hearing of this, an enraged Warmaster bought along his I Legion and the VIII Legion to bring Ermak and Vigfus to justice. When Warmaster Kar and Commmander Halvdan Kharne arrived the IX Legion had escaped justice. Only the IV Legion remained to meet their fate. Having seen what his Legions have done, he ordered Vigfus StrongFang and his Legion back to Dagger Post for punishment.
Vigfus was executed by Halvdan Kharne upon the Warmasters orders, the StrongFang family weapon Incisor was destroyed and decimation was ordered upon the IV legion.
