Ahnuthall

Ahnuthal

Ahnuthall rose to the status of demon prince from successes in the Abyssal Release. In this war, he never lost a battle with the primordials. His military genius faltered in the Demon Spawn War after being cornered by superior forces under the leadership of a rival demon prince named Orcus. This capture happened in the Abyss during the Demon Spawn War which was enveloping realms of the Prime Material Plane. After Ahnuthall's defeat, Orcus was generous enough to allow him to keep his title as Demon Prince, but must pay fealty to him for 666 years. It is said that Orcus kept Ahnuthall in check by threat of giving out his true name to the angels.

One's true name is a bind to their psyche and essence. If a conjurer gets hold of this then they can draw the creature across planes and multi-verses by various summoning spells. For the conjured this will result in torture by spiritwrack and possibly death by goodly summoners, long imprisonment, used as a bargaining chip for ransom, or as a tool to wreck havoc on one's foes.

In the Demon Spawn War, Orcus assigned Ahnuthall with the task of establishing a base in Ohtarion. In this sector of the High Wood Country and others he battled the forces of the archangel Clangeddin. After four decades of war, Ahnuthall was driven out of the region. He next appeared in the highlands of Grashakh. He was sent to this area by Orcus to counter the threat of Demogorgon who had the objective of taking it. The opposing demon armies spent more time and resources fighting each other than combating those of the Quara'tun Covenant.

In the Bowkrak hills Ahnuthall tried to bring a demon city of the Abyssal plane Azu'tzor through a rift. This ended in disaster, with weave spiders sealing the rift as it came through. The city broke apart as the rift shrunk in size, obliterating tens of thousands of demons and slaves. Ahnuthall was the only person able to muster the inner power to open so large a rift so he paid the price of testing his meddle against the Web's guardians. There are scant records of the God Era, yet there is enough to conclude that Ahnuthall tried to bring a city, packed with demon soldiers, to Bowkrak out of desperation. He sought to retake the hills from the goblin mercenary general Maglubiyet and himself defeat the demon armies converging on the area. These allied armies where those serving under Demogorgon and Baphomet. As it turns out, the rock raining down from the shattered city weakened Maglubiyet's army so that it was also destroyed. The fall of armies did not end there, because the victors soon turned to fighting each other over the goblin's rich supply train. The badly battered foes did not get rest, because aerial units of Bahamut came in and strafed the area for days afterwards leading to the annihilation of both demon armies. These series of events and conflicts became known as the Battle of Ahnuthall Fall. For the Quara'tun Covenant it was a major victory where they had to do practically nothing but watch as four enemy armies destroyed each other with the loss of well over 100,000 enemy combatants.

Amras Calafalas

Calafalas Beserker

Amras Calafalas is a wood elf tribe in Lerundil. In the High Down War, the Angrods living in this forest suffered exposure to an Entropic Eddy. This made them more chaotic and barbaric - giving rise to some taking the path of frenzied berserkers, wild mages and wilders. They added a darker path to this in the long and brutal High Down War with Eldalweril. The Amras Calafalas became more cold and wicked in their ways until all of them eventually became chaotic evil. Senior seers of Idril Séregon claim that the chaotic emanations of the Entropic Eddy accelerated their descent into evil.

Amras Calafalas is a hostile tribe with foreign relations only when it suits them. They have been known to ally with Rumaktharga against the Angrods and serve others when their employers does not want to get their hands dirty.
