| Act of War - MUD Description | |
| Let the warhorns blow! The fantasy world of Uthrac is littered with original landscapes with new spins on the time-tested races we have all become accustomed to finding in fantasy settings. The scope of the game's story focuses on the small kingdom of Tier in the lands of Albiane. Tier is a monarchal society, whose kingly line over the years has slowly weakened. The prince Tornoah is all that remains of the once powerful kings of the past. The Tieran nobility squabbles in dimly lit council chambers, each following their own mechinations to gain an upper hand over their rivals. Here, corruption and abuse have become all too common. The general population of the kingdom live their lives in peace, minding their own business, and working the wheat and barley fields that surround Tier. To Tier's south lies the fortified city of Kael, once an outpost of Tier, now a strong military bastion. Both city states exist alongside one another in a strained peace. Not long ago Kael's army sacked the city of Tier after the Tieran king Kardan III had their leader General Kael, the fort's namesake, assassinated. After 10 years the Tieran exiles returned however, and retook their city, reestablishing their old borders. Continued border skirmishes exist between the cities, and all-out war threatens the thinly brokered peace. While western lands fight petty wars over land and honor, deep in the Dragon Mountains far to the east, evil begins to stir. The Matron Mother, vanquished following the fall of Tier, has been reborn by the magic of Lacatus, a powerful necromancer. Her banners fly once again, carried by throngs of orc, goblin, and dagashi armies. Villages are once again being overrun, with fresh slaves pouring in to the Matron's Undermountain City. Some for food, and others as laborers, over time being corrupted themselves by the dark magics of the Matron. Follow the path of light, and fend against the encroaching evil, or take up the dark blood-stained banner of the Matron Mother! Whichever side you choose, prepare for WAR! |
