Warlords of the Accordlands Previews

Race Preview: Nimbic

Nimbics are the half-forgotten children of elves. Like the elves of House Netheryn , nimbics trace their ancestry to the experiments of the fallen House Wyrian. Unlike their true elven cousins, however, the experiments that produced the nimbics failed utterly. Nimbics are certainly faster and more cunning than most races, but pay a terrible price: they live so quickly that they die of old age before other races even reach maturity.

Race Preview: Humans

Human kingdoms dominate the western and southern regions of the Accordlands, stretching from the northern Lands of the Kabal and Denska south to Markappal and Narawat, and east to Misear and Baraxton. At one point, all these Free Kingdoms made up the former Deverenian province of Khalenar. Though they have since crumbled into their own territories, the whole of the race shares the same basic characteristics… and perhaps the same fate.

Race Preview: Dwarves

Beneath the rocky crust of the world, the Dwarves guard ancient cities and strongholds, keeping back the evil that lies below. The Abyss, heart of the world and resting place of the fallen corpse of the ancient Dragon, lies beneath the cities of the Dwarves.

If aid does not arrive soon, the Dwarven guard will certainly crack-and the Abyss will be unleashed upon the world.

Race Preview: Elf

While Nothrogs are more brutal and Deverenians more militant, perhaps no race in the Accord is so feared as the Elves. Due to their already short lifespans, elves risk anything short of each other to extend their years. Some take on the names of more permanent structures or creatures, so that their legend combines with their namesake. Others drive themselves to ever-higher acts of heroism or villainy, that the bards sing their tales for another millennium. Most simply embrace their recently-returned mastery of necromancy.

Race Preview: Nothrog

Nothrog used to be a wide field of races, from goblins to bugbears and orcs. Centuries ago, they discovered the benefits of eugenics, and while the original races have not entirely disappeared, the Nothrogs have interbred to the point that they are now distinct from their ancestors, and have even specially bred a relatively new sub-race of albino spellcasters. They now lead massive armies in conquest of the other races under the name of the greatest Nothrog commander of all time, Nassiral Hate.
