United by an ancient prophecy, the warriors of the Eagle are
 +
the descendents of the races whose existence was upset by
 +
the arrival of man on Aarklash. Seeking revenge or simply
 +
worried by the changes the continent is suff ering, they fi ght
 +
against the presence of humans and the two principles this
 +
unwelcome race brought: Light and Darkness. Th ey hope
 +
that one day they will be able to give back to Aarklash the
 +
face it had before the arrival of the people of Kel.

== History ==
 +
 
 +
When the humans of the people
 +
of Kel landed on the shores of
 +
Aarklash, they upset the life of the
 +
continent. Th e oracles of the Th undereagle
 +
mustered an army to fight the spawn of evil
 +
terrible war ensued and the Concord
 +
was defeated. Th e survivors called upon the power of
 +
the Th under-eagle to open a portal to Shenroth, his Realm of
 +
origin.
 +
During its exile, the Concord built a fl ying
 +
fortress so that it could travel from realm to
 +
realm. It prepared for the day when it was to
 +
return to Aarklash for revenge.
 +
Soon after the beginning of the Rag’narok,
 +
several representatives of the Paths of Destiny
 +
realized that Aarklash was on the verge of disaster.
 +
Th ey performed the ritual of Destiny to
 +
open the portal to Shenroth. Th e fortress of the
 +
Faathi emerged from the magical gateway, carrying
 +
the army of the Eagle.
 +
Th e Concord welcomed all those willing to
 +
join and provided assistance to the peoples of
 +
Destiny. It fought the Limbos of Acheron, which
 +
caused the crash of the fortress in Avagddu. In
 +
the years following the Concord had to fi ght off
 +
the Ram to protect the wreck of its fortress. All
 +
the peoples of Destiny came to their rescue, until
 +
the attacks eventually stopped.
 +
Today, the Concord of the Eagle has carved itself
 +
a territory in Avagddu, which it calls Ogma.
 +
Th e fortress seems beyond repair, but a real city
 +
has started to develop around the wreck.
 +
Th e Eagle has decided to stay and fight!
 +
 
 +
== Ragn'arok ==
 +
 
 +
After the fi rst Rag’narok, which almost everyone
 +
had forgotten about, the last humans of the
 +
continent were forced to leave. Aarklash found peace again and the Rag’narok ended. However, the threat was
 +
still hanging over the continent. Th e Th under-eagle, a powerful
 +
creature from the Realm of Shenroth, deli-vered a dark
 +
prophecy to some of the survivors: the day would come when
 +
man would set foot on Aarklash yet again and war would
 +
sweep across the continent in his wake. It is in the name of
 +
this prophecy that, over a thousand years later, the warriors of
 +
the Eagle are still fi ghting: they want to rid Aarklash of man
 +
so that peace may be found again. Once this is accomplished,
 +
the warriors of the Eagle shall become builders and give back
 +
to Aarklash the face it had before the second coming of man.
 +
Some of them want to go even further in their fi ght: the true
 +
danger announced by the prophecy is greater than men: the
 +
threat comes from all the nations that work for Light and
 +
Darkness, bearers of confl icts and tragedies. Th ey want to get
 +
rid of the Cynwäll, the dwarves of Tir-Nâ-Bor, the Akkyshans
 +
and the devourers as well as the humans.
 +
Independently from this long-term objective, the warriors of
 +
the Eagle must defend the borders of their new country each
 +
day: the troops of the Ram, the Scorpion and the Hyena are
 +
threatening to invade the region surrounding the fl ying fortress
 +
every day. Th e warriors of the Eagle are fi ghting for their
 +
future, to build a new civilization on Aarklash. Among them,
 +
some hope the fortress will be repaired, so that they can leave
 +
Aarklash, which they consider already lost. To them the best
 +
way to honor the prophecy of the Eagle is to fl ee while there is
 +
still time and re-build elsewhere what humans have destroyed
 +
on Aarklash. In the meantime, there is a debt that all the warriors
 +
of the Eagle need to repay: the peoples of destiny have
 +
saved their lives over the last few years. Th e Eagle now owes
 +
them a debt and its warriors are assisting their allies in battle
 +
all-over Aarklash!
 +
 
 +
== Army ==
 +
 
 +
Th e army of the Eagle is diverse
 +
with some fi ghters of fl esh
 +
and blood, while others are only
 +
made of pure magical energy.
 +
Coming straight from ancient
 +
times, it fi ghts according to long
 +
forgotten rites and strategies. For
 +
all these reasons the Eagle army
 +
can seem rather odd to enemy
 +
commanders. Creatures and
 +
mystics are very common among
 +
its ranks, which is quite surprising
 +
for enemy fi ghters. Giants
 +
and minotaurs play the role of
 +
elites, while the centaurs are the
 +
Eagle’s cavalry. Wild and merciless,
 +
these soldiers show no pity
 +
and fi ght with savage determination.
 +
Th e commanders of the
 +
Eagle are just like these fi ghters.
 +
Th ey would rather attack than
 +
wait in defense. Th ey never hesitate
 +
to unleash the power of the
 +
Elements and Aspects upon the enemy. Th ey always make
 +
sure the enemy is caught in a defensive stance, at the mercy
 +
of the mystic powers of the Eagle.
 +
Th e archons of the Faathi are probably the most famous
 +
warriors of the Eagle and the most feared across Aarklash.
 +
Th ese minotaurs have sworn to remain loyal to the Th undereagle
 +
and are the chosen priests of the Concord. Appointed
 +
by the assembly of Destiny to watch over the equilibrium of
 +
Aarklash, they can call miracles, but also split the skull of any
 +
enemy. Some would rather make sure their people and the
 +
nations of Destiny are safe before anything else, while other
 +
archons have made the decision to exterminate Light and
 +
Darkness as quickly as possible. In both cases, they are great
 +
warriors that should not be provoked. Th e centaurs who accompany
 +
the Concord of the Eagle are originally from Dracynrän,
 +
a region now forgotten by man. Descended from the
 +
few who survived the madness of men, they fi ght with the energy
 +
of despair. Master archers as well as great lancers, they
 +
infl ict heavy losses on the enemy protected behind their great
 +
shields!
