Chronopia Stygian History: The One King has disturbed
an ancient and terrible menace.
The Stygian Horde has spread to the edges of
the Black Plateaus of the Vulture Clan Dwarves and on more than
one occasion has threatened to breach the integrity of the great
Talon Gates. The Horde has overrun several of the Elven mercantile
cities. The Blackbloods have encountered them far into the trade
routes through the Lands of the Flame, as well as the gates of
Belshazzar itself. The One King has fought them and defeated them
at the ziggurat of Ipkur-Kish but the ever-growing tide of Stygian
has met them between the River of Time and the River of Blood,
on the Plain of Bones.
The Stygian are sleek and muscular, with iridescent
skins and crested carapaces. They are astonishingly agile and
frighteningly fast. Their bronze, enameled armor is richly embellished
with turquoise, carnelian and white jade. Their eyes are cruelly
intelligent with a sentience unknown to any of the other races
of Chronopia.
The great host of serpent-men acts with one
communal mind. The hive-mind of the Stygian is orchestrated through
its Priestesses. Resplendent in their gilded, bronze armor the
Priestesses imperceptibly relay their instructions to the saurion
horde. They carry huge circular disks on their backs known as
Scion Stones, These stones appear to be the source of their terrible
power. They are similiar in contruction to, but much smaller than,
the Tablets of Destiny on which is said to be written the whole
of time and creation.
Legend has it that Tiamat created the Tablets
of Destiny and wrote upon them the future of the World, in an
attempt to shape the course of destiny and harness the dominion
of fate: that she might give her beloved Stygian the future; secure
and graven in stone. But the Gods of Old were furious that any
should seek to control the future without achieving it by trial
of strength or retaining it by constant endenvor. There was a
balance to be maintained; a balance that held the heavens in place
and the earth in its cradle.
They set down upon the earth a champion to oppose
and restrain the stygian might. And they gave him powers to combat
the predestined future written upon the Tablets of Destiny. However,
while the Champion did stanch the tide of sacrificial blood, he
was not given the power to destroy the Stygian utterly. There
could be no favor shown: only the balance to be restored. The
Stygian fell back to their ziggurats and sealed up the Chaos Tombs.
There they slept, waiting for a day when the earth had forgotten
them and the Tablets of Destiny could reassert their influence
upon the world once more; a day when they would rise again and
make the world an altar, drenched in sacrificial blood.
