Den of Iniquity
It has been a dark year for the people of Yew, one rife with tragedy and toil. Their lives were unexpectedly cast aside by the will of Lord Blackthorn and his evil ambitions. It was Blackthorn’s plan to reclaim Britannia with the aid of a strange and distant being…Exodus. His armies soon made their mark. First came the Juka. As result of an alliance with Blackthorn and his master Exodus, the barbaric race of warlord and mages swarmed into Britannia. They occupied Yew and enslaved the townspeople, and though the protectors of this land united to fight for their freedom…it was in vain.
Next came Blackthorn’s legion. The elite dragoons, betrayers, and juggernauts that served him without question. Their enhanced armors and tactics made them perfect support for the Juka, whose victories in Britannia came less and less often. Their suppression of any opposition secured the evil hold on Yew and its people.
Lastly came the plague. The Decay spell brought on by the Meer in an attempt to destroy the Juka had gone wrong…and the effects of the miscast were soon noticed. The lush forestland soon faltered into a marshy swamp. The earth itself turned against them, spawning creatures of ghastly appearance and power. Bog things and plague beasts rose out of the ground, composed of the parts of living and dead alike. Sickness overcame the inhabitants. The plague came and in its wake it left nothing but death…and weakness in the integrity of the surrounding lands…
The plague was cured and Blackthorn’s legions driven back to Ilshenar, and despite it being a swamp, life in Yew soon returned to normal…but the weakness remained…
The essence of Oblivion is forever scouring the realms to fill every cavern, crack and crevice with dark and foreboding energies. It is forever enticing and seducing willing and unwilling mortals, wretched and good alike, into its wicked grasp. No single life or soul is spared the sensuous and ultimately fatal caress of Entropy, save for those with the courage to embrace it.
A world divided in two; one dead and ravaged, life within depending on Oblivion’s whim, the other lively and blanketed in a false security that no evil could ever touch it. The essence of Oblivion continuously pores over the dividing walls, lapping ever so hungrily for even a morsel of what awaited on the other side- many trusting and unwitting souls to entice and corrupt.
With the folly of the Decay spell and the weakness left within the very land itself, the dark tendrils of Oblivion grew stronger in this realm of light and seeped deeper into Trammel, reaching out to the nearby pockets of evil of the Yew Cemetery and the Yew Crypts. Tapping into the dark energies found within the unnatural swamp, undead ridden cemetery and Crypts, Oblivion worked its cancerous will. Something darker, with a far more sinister purpose than the Decay, haunted cemeteries and ancient Crypts combined came into existence. A monument to the corruption of life was erected and begun to spin an evil web across the realm of Trammel.
At the center of that twisted and malignant web dwells the Den of Iniquity. The next year promises to be much darker for the citizens of Yew and the lands beyond.
The Order of the Ebon Skull beckons you to revel in all that is sinful at our opening of the Den of Iniquity, located south of the Yew Moongate on the Trammel facet (coordinates: 47o 59'N, 35o 17'W). The celebration shall begin promptly at 7 p.m. beneath the eastern moon, January 1, 2003 with the opening of the Laughing Liche Tavern on the main floor and casino activities in the upstairs room, followed by a class on the anti-virtues hosted by the Scholomance and a special mass performed by the Clergy of OES.
We invite you to further partake in the celebration with your sinful submissions to a story contest to be judged by Lord Azalin, Mistress Mehalia, and Mistress Forna Sinthe. The most sinful of tales shall receive a prize of 100,000 Gold Coins, with prizes of 50,000 and 25,000 gold coins going to first and second runners up. Winning submissions will be displayed in the tower library as well as in the Scholomance of Caina (anonymity provided for those who wish it, of course). All entries should be forwarded to sinfulsubmissions@hotmail.com by no later than 3 p.m., January 1 along with character name and contact information.
