"Yes indeed, the dark sign brands the undead, and in this land the undead are corralled and sent to the North, where they are locked away to await the end of the world, this is your fate."
In a land where the powers of light destroy the balance between Good and Evil, the forces of Darkness, the damned, the tainted, the tormented are hunted, captured and finally imprisoned for all eternity until the end of time.
"Well what do we have here; you must be a new arrival..."
The many lands that are found in such a bright are damnable, the sight of grand fortresses left long ago by the Gods where tournament were held for the strongest warriors to prove themselves, now serves as a tomb and resting place of such beings that have gained powers that withstand even death and to this day await challengers to prove their worth.
"Don't even consider visiting Amoronther...Not in your state..."
The kingdom that lies beyond the mountain walls, a bastion for those true to the powers of light, justice and righteousness. The first kingdom to rebel and finally extinguish all domains over the forces of darkness, the first kingdom that destroyed the balance and have prospered for it.
Born in the Dark, and warmed by the fire.
The dark creatures of this world have forever tormented each other in mortal combat, whilst others await their execution by the beings of light, and finally those whom wait for the end of the world to be judged, however there are those whom will rise and fight for their own freedom, their own path to glory. Either it be for themselves or companions along the way.
"May the flames, guide thee."
The Grand City of Amoronther
The kingdom that harbours the powers of Good and purity to its finest essence, blessed by the Gods long ago for their righteousness and many attributes in their beliefs the people inside are fair and truthful, the guardians merciless to the wicked, their armies conquerors of the Darkness and their king, a strong and powerful ruler whom rides on justice and compassion and will even topple the forces of darkness to keep his people safe. This place has been approached by demons and undead before and have failed on many occasions, the catapults are many, the archer's arrows blacken the skies and the magic of their mages and sorceress cause the ground to burn and freeze, destroying any hope of a frontal assault. The gates of Amoronther have not been breached for over 200 years by any force of darkness.
The Aldune Forests
Said to contain the many powers of magic, hermits, mages, witches, warlocks and other such beings inhabit these darkened forests for isolation and training it is also where the many ruined towers and battle forts lie lifeless as the forest takes back its land at a slow and steady pace, many beasts prowl the grounds whilst giants of the sky circle over head to await their opportunity, the forest has history and has been a host of many battles between the forces of darkness to test the might of their own powers and have bewitched the forests to a state where healing is impossible, some plains of the forest show beauty and purity whilst others have been disturbed, tainted and broken, the forest is on the border of the great kingdom Amoronther and has also hosted many war bands and assault troops.
God's Tears
A enormous fortress known for the many battles of gladiators that chose to prove themselves in front of the Gods, both Good and Evil have contested and only 4 in existence have ever came out, but as a changed being entirely. Now it is a ruin for those whom have fallen and have no allegiance but to themselves and the fortress the undead prowl the many halls and tunnels of such a place and stands on the edge of a mountain side on the Western side of the Aldune Forest.
Draken Keep
Where all depraved and damned souls go, where Evil currently resides, left within the prisons to moulder away until the end of time. This is where you begin, this is where you reside where the guardians of the fortress patrol, a heavily guarded fort along with booby-traps to boot. The only path from this giant fort is a single narrow path way that leads down from the mountain side it resides on and onto the fields of barren wastelands from the South, until the forests are reached if headed North, the keep is also backed onto an ocean named the black sea due to the taint of darkness that infests nearby.
Barthos
A waste land with nothing more than ash, flame and dusts a plain of nightmares and sorrow to which all dark souls are born and eventually return, here the eternal flame resides and is the festering power of darkness to which all creatures and beings of Evil draw their power from, such a place has been countless wars over the flame. It is rumoured that the flame will grant the wielder ever lasting power of the highest state, however Barthos lies under the Kingdom of Amoronther, protected by her walls and soldiers to keep such forces away from a devastating physical manifestation of Darkness.

Black Knight: The black knight is considered as a deadly swordsman with few who could oppose such a being of darkness, out fitted with heavy armour, a wall shield and long sword or claymore, the black knight specializes in brute force and frontal assaults and can take a lot of punishment as well as giving out the same in return.

Abilities:
Suffering: Cause a target to feel the flesh burn from their bodies and the open wounds of war to weaken their spirit in a battle, this spell has a weakening affect as well as moral, works well in lesser foes but brutes will have a lesser affect with this spell.
Hex: Curse their movement and attack strength, weakening the body and causing the mind to wonder into distant memories, this causes targets to be distracted and lose heart in the fight, forcing them to take more hits for allies to take an opportunity on.
Blood Rituals: Cause a summon of a moderate demon, spell bound to the caster this demon will attack enemies with fierce plight and destructive power depending which element it is (up to user), whilst this demon is in play the caster is spell bound by chains wounding her body the more blood that is split by the caster, the stronger the demon will become.

Abilities:
Tainted call: A screech from this being calls forth a tainted undead beast of the wilds to help the hunter in his/her time of need.

Swordsmanship: This ability is passive and means the hunter is better at using a sword than archery, thus the skills of a bow are lesser than the skills of a sword.
