War of Skorrion

Military action

950(BC)


In the year 950, the Brotherhood faced its first test. Up until this point, the Brotherhood had spent all their time creating wizardry as we know it. It was during this time that the 30 schools were created. However, this blissful time of scholarly pursuit was not to last forever. In northern Fetesca, where the Brotherhood was based, lived a great wyrm Shadow Dragon, Skorrion. Skorrion became jealous of the power wielded by the mortals. He raised huge armies of creatures and began to destroy the outlying schools of the Brotherhood. The brotherhood was far too spread out to mount any great defense, and it seemed all was lost.
  Just when the battle was at its most grim, two heroes rose from the Brotherhood's ranks, Naz Kroan, Headmaster of the School of Necromancy, and Lane Beril, Headmaster of the School of Divination. Using powerful magics to predict Skorrion's moves, Lane allowed Naz Kroan to raise armies of the dead in time to stop Skorrion's armies. With the armies destroyed, the two mages went to do battle with the Wyrm. After a long battle, Naz Kroan defeated Skorrion with the use of powerful magical items he had created: The ring of the Necromancer and the Armor of the Undead. However, Naz Kroan died of wounds from the battle. Lane returned to the Brotherhood with the body of his friend, who was declared a hero. To ensure that they would never be used for evil, Naz Kroan's weapons were handed over to the priesthood of Jhonus to be kept safe for all eternity. In celebration of their victory, the Brotherhood created a great city on the site of the battle: Drem.
