The Burning Sands
at the Fortress of Tur
The Ogre Titans of the Southern Army consists
Hundjal
Morgada
Olagh
Safrag
Tdarnk
The Ogre Titans are among the most beautiful creatures of Krynn.
They stand at fifteen feet tall, have a sky-blue complexion, a
powerful muscular body, pointed ears as an elf, facial features,
and almond eyes as a half-elf that glows a pale-yellow color.
hairless over their body and face, hair atop their head ranging
from black to white. Their senses are superior to most races, as
are their hearing. Inside their mouths rests a double row of
razor-sharp teeth.
The Army is made up of the Ogre Tribes of Blöde.
Ogres
Bug Bears
Hobgoblins
Goblins
Anyone in the army that drops becomes an undead and joins the
Undead army that is also traveling across the Burning Sands.
The Undead Army is the remnants of past wars of aggression among
the denizens of Blöde, as there are endless battlefields across
the region.
The undead army is made of the following:
Ogres
Bug Bears
Hobgoblins
Goblins
The Amry has moved at night and tunneled into the ground before
sunup. The Ogre Titans have thus far kept the pressure on the
Knights of Neraka while protecting their advance. The Supply
wagons the ogres brought, along with the Knights of Neraka’s
captured provisions, The ogre army has survived thus far in
their trek across the Burning and unforgiving Sands of Khur.
Soon, the scout comes back with perplexing information. The
Knights of Neraka are nowhere to be found.
Knowing exactly where the Army was last night, this was
worrying. Dozens of scouts are sent out to find the Army.
Soon a clue is found. The Titans go to try to interpret this
clue.
It is a dead knight they have found beneath the sand. There is
another, Then another.
It must be the whole Dark Knight army.
A breeze picks up, blowing from the south off the sea. A Storm
picks up.
With the Titans distracted, the watchful Dragons that were
assigned to the attack wing scattered, but several went in the
same direction and found themselves hiding together in the
Sierra Khur Messa. They talked about what their strategy should
be going forward. They already planned to take out the supply
wagons but it seems this storm is going to move up the
timetable. A Blue and two Blacks set out and fly low across the
burning sand. They sight the supply wagons and their defenders
and aim to destroy them in one pass then scatter. They fly in
and destroy the magic water gourds and pack animals in deadly
Lighting and Acid-breath weapon attacks.
The Titans see the attack and know the Dragons are out of range.
They have lost that advantage.
Thousands of Undead skeletal Knights and Footmen rise from the
sands and begin killing the Ogre Army. Many Undead Knights go
for The Oge Titans. Several of them fire their soul blast at the
attacking knights They follow that up with magical weapon
attacks, claws, or magic.
The Death Knight’s Forces
Skeletal Knights
Skeletal Footmen with polearms
The Armies collide. It is violent, and it becomes about who is
carrying magic items or silver weapons.
The Death Knight once known as Hengriff surveys the chaos. He
can see the ogres, goblins, and Hobgoblin’s morale break, but
their Undead army won't.
After two hours hand to hand combat, swords and sorcery from the
Titans and Ogre Mages.
The Undead Knights try to swarm the Ogre Titans, but their magic
weapons, be it sword, pole arms, or axe, they decimate any that
come near. They erect Prismatic walls and escape attempts on
their lives. But the situation is not in hand and the outcome
uncertain. They elect to chose the next battlefield.
The Ogre Titans know this encounter will not determine the
outcome in their favor. Al ready they see more Dragons in the
sky. They can sense their weakness. They still have a living
component of their army that will need provisions and magical
weapons. They signal a retreat, but they head north, towards the
Pillars of Heaven to the Valley of the Blue Sands. The Titans
use their Undead to cover their retreat.

Northern Khur
At the Gates to the Valley of the Blue Sands
Before the sandstorm hit
The Chromatic Dragons located in the Sierra Khur, see their
opening, with the Titan’s attention diverted, The Chromatics go
on the offensive. They eliminated the supply wagons supporting
the Ogre-titan Army.
The Ogre army is now in the middle of the Burning Desert without
water.
Now, after the Storm has passed.
Dragons attack from multiple vectors, from different locations
at the Ogre-Titans and their Army.
The Ogre-Titans get the message.
All of a sudden, a Dragon flies to a cloud bank and finds that
it is mostly solid. The Clouds start descending into the path of
the Dragons. They begin hovering as their molecular density
goes through rapid changes this far in Northern Khur.
So, the Dragons learn from this. They are successful in pushing
the Ogre Titan Ogre to withdraw.
The Draconian Army also withdrew. They begin their attacks on
the Valley of the Blue Sands.
Trees ignite momentarily into blazes from Fire Breathweapon
attacks but extinguish quickly by some magical happenstance.
They destroy the Tower of the Sun and Stars.
Lightning bolts rains down on the Gates from the Blue Dragons.
A small group of Elven wizards is noticed by a Clack Dragon and
he casts Darkness
In the Next round, he rains his Acid Breathweapon on the area of
the three wizards.
The Elven Wizards’ faces and hands begin melting away. They fall
on their knees and fall over, writhing in maddening torment, for
they can no longer speak.
The Dragons begin destroying buildings, and homes

Story One
Chapter Four: The Return of Lord Rage [/center]
Eastern Ansalon
Northern Khur
Lord Hengriff is overseeing the retreat of the Ogre Titans to
the North. His Skeletal Army has done its job fighting off the
Titans. He is proud.
There is a Thunderclap that echoes through the valleys with a
thundering crash. When the smoke clears, the stamping hoof of a
Nightmare and its Dark Rider stands revealed. The Nightmare
stamps his hoof again, and the rider dismounts.
Hengriff studies the armor configuration to see… This is blacked
Ancient Age of Might Era Solamnic Rose Armor…
The Rider approaches the Lord and looks him over, then asks “You
are Hengriff?”
“Yes, who are you?”
“I hereby relieve you of your command by order of the Dark Lord
himself.” The Rider declares.
“What?! You ca-"
The Rider all in one motion draws his sword and buries it deep
into the chest of Hengriff.
“wha…wha..I..”
“You are a disgrace to the profession, you are a neophyte, a
cauled enfant in a world of giants. I am here to bring order
back to the proceedings.
“you, I amm”
“No, you are not.”
Rage pulls free of the Armor in a streak of sparks. Hengriff
staggers and reaches for his sword.
Hengriff’s helmed head clatters to the ground, flaming eyes burn
with hate.
Rage scoops up the head and considers it before stuffing it into
a bag that he carries with him to the Nightmare and attaches it
to the saddle. The Rider then takes the rope from the saddlebag
and unfurls it. He ties the end to Hengriff’s feet. He takes the
rest of the rope bundle and ties it to the pommel of the saddle.
He tells the Nightmare something then in another flash and
thundercrash, the Nightmare is gone, with the body of Lord
Hengriff in tow, dragging it to the feet of his master even now.
The Death Knight known as Rage takes a moment to absorb the
feeling of his return to the Prime Material Plane.
He strides to the outcropping and addresses the undead troops.
“My predecessor has been relieved and recalled. I have come to
take his place. I am a Battle Lord with Hundreds of years of
experience in destroying my enemies. I have every confidence we
will find a way forward together." "We march. We are going to
see the Half-Elf."
