Th e inhabitants of Aarklash speak of the Devourers in terms of a scourge. From their point of view they are little more than a pack of rabid wolfen, drunk on carnage and destruction. Th ey cannot even understand how these faithless and lawless rebels managed to survive so long! The reason for this is very simple though. Th e Devourers are unrivalled warriors who have broken free from the chains that once held them captive to the gods. Once members of the Paths of Destiny, they have joined the Meanders of Darkness to quench their thirst for slaughter. Th e Rag’narok shall be the celebration of the death of the gods!

== History == 

In 999, on the eve of the Rag’narok, a meteor crashed into the
stone circle of Caer Laen. Th is celestial body was the prison of
Vile-Tis, a fallen god whose brothers and sisters had punished
for his unruly behavior. Th ose who have since named him “the
Beast” emerged from the wolfen of the Moaning moon. He delivered
a terrible revelation to them: the gods were imperfect
and made use of their illegitimately earned powers to enchain
mortals. To convince them, the Beast revealed that Yllia, their
goddess, hated them: she had not given life to them to protect
nature, but to destroy any civilization that would threaten her
hegemony. In times immemorial, the worgs, forefathers of the
wolfen, had destroyed a distant western empire at Yllia’s express
demand. Vile-Tis knew this as the commander of this
invincible worg army was none other than himself.
Confronted with the reality of their history and their condition,
the wolfen did not know who to turn to after such betrayal.
Th ey made a pact with the Beast and swore to kill the
gods and destroy any trace of their existence. Th ey were taking
their destiny in their own hands.
Th e Devourers, disciples to a god of war, carried the revelations
of the Beast to the other peoples. Th e half elves of the
Ynkarô river, who shared their vision of Creation, rallied to
the Devourers. Th eir souls burning with torment, they fought
like beasts and carried out acts of limitless violence.
Th e Hyena roams in Darkness since 1003. Th e peoples of
Destiny, too weak for them, refused to take the extreme measures
imposed by the Rag’narok. In the heart of Darkness, the
Devourers have become more ferocious and merciless than
ever.
