Morgaea Compendium Wiki

The Ministry teaches that it is the hubris of men which brought doom upon the world.

Ages ago, ancient magisters of the Adamantium known as the Seven Apostles attempted to usurp Heaven. Instead, in their ignorance, they destroyed it. For their sin, the Watcher cast them out, twisted and cursed by their own corruption, and returned them to Morgaea as monsters; the first of the fiends. After spreading their vile taint, they freed the Deceiver Vemon, and became a scourge upon the lands; relentless and unstoppable.

The dwarven empire was the first to fall, as one by one it's hewnholds were lost. Then, from the Underways, the fiendish hordes drove at the surface world again and again, until finally, all races neared annihilation. But, when all hope seemed lost, the Grey Order came. Men and women from every race, warriors and mages, barbarians and kings; the Rangers of the Grey sacrificed everything to stem the tide of darkness... and prevailed.

It is now the thirtieth year of the Ninth Age, and four centuries have past since the world was last forced to face the fiendish hordes. While the Grey Order has kept its vigil, watching and waiting for their return, those who once called them heroes have forgotten. They are few now, and their warnings have been ignored for too long; far to the north, in the Welserine Wilds, a fiendish horde has begun to emerge.

While King Renley Kaulden of Nordain and his forces have taken up arms and clashed with small fiendish warbands, it is believed the bulk of the horde will ultimately show itself at the ancient fortress of Genedara. With few stationed in Nordain, and little time to waste, Isaac, Nordain's Commander of the Grey, has personally set out to recruit individuals to join and bolster their ranks, hoping to stop a Scourge before it has even begun.

Whether by choice, circumstance, or Right of Conscription, you are among those individuals; and your story begins at the gates of Genedara...
