Enter Eldrua

While growing older and more powerful the Derro Loremaster was rewarded for her accomplishments in His name. Orcus whispered dangerous Abyssal secrets and rituals, and bestowed powerful magic items and Guardians.

It all culminated in one vision; a Frost Giant tribe worshipping before a steaming pit of Darkness..

Understanding that this pit constituted an ancient gateway to the Abyss, Eldrua set out to wrest control of it, so that the Demon Prince of Undead would reward her even more.

Eldrua and her Derro kin, supplemented by several Demons and Undead horrors, invaded the Hold of Jarl Gnorgrak.
Surviving Giants were scattered and forced to retreat.
As reward for gaining control of the Abyssal gate-pit, Orcus sent the Scythe of Orcus.
And with it came the second vision;
A complex stone and metal lattice built over the Abyssal pit, and impaled on the countless barbs were hundreds of heads, jaws open in silent, eternal screams and eyes filled with horror.

A DeadGate will be created,
fueled by headless Souls, harvested by the Four Horsemen...
