- | ==== A Brief Timeline of the Plaguelands ==== | ||
- | |||
- | First, there were the lizard folk. They scoured the deserts and the high plains. | ||
- | |||
- | Next, the Verdant empire spread across the lands. These orcs and goblins from the South made quite an advanced empire, enslaving the lizard folk and colonizing the cities. | ||

- | Most recently, plague has stricken the land taking entire villages and corrupting them. The bodies left by the plagues are perfect tools for necromancers who call themselves "The Plaguelords." | ||
