| + | == 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. | ||

| + | == Ragn'arok == | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Born on the verge of the Age | ||
| + | of Battles, the Devourers are the | ||
| + | perfect symbol of the destructive | ||
| + | frenzy of the Rag’narok. | ||
| + | Th ere is no possible compromise: | ||
| + | the Hyena is the executioner | ||
| + | of the weak and the slayer | ||
| + | of any god-fearing empire. | ||
| + | Th rough carnage the Hyena | ||
| + | denounces the deceitful game | ||
| + | of the gods and intends to bring | ||
| + | it to an end. Th e Rag’narok must | ||
| + | end with the fall of law and the | ||
| + | gods. Once victory and freedom | ||
| + | are earned, the torment of | ||
| + | mortals shall end. It will then | ||
| + | be time to build a new future. | ||
| + | Th e Devourers do not believe | ||
| + | in Destiny anymore: the future | ||
| + | is not written in stone; it is in | ||
| + | the hands of those who seize | ||
| + | it by force or cunning. During | ||
| + | the fi rst years of their existence | ||
| + | the Devourers have unleashed a hurricane of destruction and | ||
| + | hatred. Nevertheless, time and the revelations of their profaners | ||
| + | have tempered their rage: they are slowly forming a true | ||
| + | people, united by motives stronger than carnage. Th e most | ||
| + | awakened among them are envisioning new models of society. | ||
| + | Th e Rag’narok could well be the baptism of blood for a new | ||
| + | golden age. | ||

| + | == Army == | ||
| + | |||
| + | Disowned by their peoples of origin, hunted by the servants | ||
| + | of the gods and boiling with torment, the Devourers are forever | ||
| + | at war. Th e Beast and its champions teach them a highly | ||
| + | evolved art of combat, in perfect contrast with the rage that | ||
| + | overcomes them in battle. Th is martial mastery allows them | ||
| + | to compensate for their lack of discipline on the fi eld. In fact, | ||
| + | the Devourers hate authority and will only follow those they | ||
| + | believe worthy of being their leaders. Once engaged in the fray, | ||
| + | many are those who give in to the fury and become oblivious | ||
| + | to orders. | ||
| + | Equipped with two handed weapons, twisted reapers or | ||
| + | shields, the voracious are the main body of the army of the | ||
| + | Hyena. Over the howls of the frantic charge, all the enemy can | ||
| + | hear is the whining of the stars of the Beast, missiles with an | ||
| + | unpredictable trajectory thrown by the dreaded headhunters. | ||
| + | Less impetuous but even more terrifying, the fl esh-eaters form | ||
| + | the elite of the Devourers. Protected by their thick armor, they | ||
| + | wield the fangs of Vile-Tis, blades whose edge never blunts. | ||
| + | Th e fl esh-eaters might be masters of combat, but tyrants are | ||
| + | virtuosos. Th ese now legendary fi ghters rule the battlefi eld | ||
| + | with their unequalled combat skills. In the shadows of the terrifying | ||
| + | warriors of the Hyena, the eclipsantes assassinate their | ||
| + | victims in a bloody celebration of grace and fury. | ||
| + | Devourers are not all wolfen: the half-elves of the Ynkarô | ||
| + | river are also disciples of the Beast. Blood warriors, slashers | ||
| + | and gray guards stand out with their agility and the cruelty | ||
| + | they display towards the enemy. | ||
