The Necromancer's Servants
Recently on Beluaterra, a group of commoners have appeared calling themselves the Necromancer's Servants. Little is known about them as yet aside from their names, and their patently absurd claims and ridiculous demands...
Known Members
- Hannibal
- Jezabel (killed in Ardmore by Riombaran troops, June 6th)
- Dominus (wounded in Ardmore, June 5th)
- Ultima
- Maldiciones - Note: thought to be a noble, though details are lacking
- Summoner - Note: nothing is known of this shadowy figure but the title
Demands
The Necromancer's Servants have appeared in Mio Dupaki, a province of Riombara. The Servants made themselves known by sending demands to various commoners inhabiting the area. The Servants claim to be attempting to locate five items for their master, the Necromancer. These items are:
- Elemental Hammer of Betrayl
- Ancient Sabre of Daemonslaying
- Legendary Plate Mail of Strength
- Daemonic Girdle of Leadership
- Broken Mace of Suffering
Messages received from the Servants.
Since their initial appearance, the Servants have roamed across the southern end of the island, repeating their demands and seeking audiences with rulers of several realms. Whenever the Necromancer's Servants encounter living soldiers, they attack without mercy.

Danira....many of our Generals and Commanders have been wiped out by Humans...although we command an absurd amount of men, the leaders are few.
We need the aid of humans to accomplish our task efficiently, and quickly. Without any help, the Island will be purged of all life, and the soldiers will find what we are looking for.
Help us leave this place. Or you will help us either in life by choice, or by death as an obedient undead soldier.

Danira,
Do not be so proud...I did not mean to threaten you. I meant to enlighten you as to the consequences of potential actions. A threat would be to simply make the ground shake, and let you witness the birth of 10.000 undead soldiers...and then telling you, that if you don't obey you'll be killed tonight.
That is a threat.
This, is a more of a warning. The legions will come. Who they will destroy is entirely up to the humans on this Island. Action---inevitable consequence.
As for your request for a promise. Can you promise me that Humans will not hunt our Undead leaders that carefully oversee the transitions of dead noble warriors to our ranks deep underground? You can't. Hence, your question is answered by the same truth: Actions--inevitable consequences.
By all means, kill the Monsters...they taint the blood of warriors, and make them unfit for transition...but never take from the undead.

This is all that is known thus far about the so-called Necromancer's Servants.
Monster Swarm
Nearly nothing is known about this group as yet, save for five names: Hulgord, Kri'fahj, Twisted Horn, Snarler and Big Fangs, apparently a leader.
Demands
Hulgord appeared in Oepiud, a province of Thalmarkin with an army of monsters. The following unclear demand was made to adventurers

You there, yes, you. I know you can hear me!
Where is it? You either help us find it, or suffer. So, speak.

Well, it would help if we know what the bloody hell you are talking about. Find it? Find what?

Be wary of your attitude little man. More impressive people than you have been mere snacks at my table. The item I look for is the Broken Mace of Suffering. Know you where I can find this to retrieve?
Hulgord (Noble)
With that, Hulgord moved on elsewhere.

You! Yes, you! Hiding in the fortress. So quick to judge, so quick to kill my comrades. Perhaps instead you could help? Yes, help would be good indeed. I am tasked with locating and taking home the Legendary Plate Mail of Strength. What know you of it's being? Where can it be found? Who has it? Where is it? Do you have it? It must be given to me, or I will be forced to take it, and if I have to do that, it won't be nice for anyone.

Is anyone going to give me an idea of where this item is located, or do I take it from the silence that you hold it within this fortress here, and I will stay, bringing more of my comrades with me, and force my way in then search the ruins for it?
Talk or suffer.
Kri'fahj
And for some reason this was the last piece Kri'fahj uttered in Nuzanki before heading south.
