        Scenario
        ~~~~~~~~
        It is a time of swords and sorcery. Power is achieved by wealth, and reinforced by massive armies. But it was not always this way.

        Some 125 years ago. King Beldar III had a large kingdom which he called Tristrian. The farm lands were extraordinarily fertile, and the mountains were full of raw materials. Most of all, his subjects where happy. But, terror struck Tristrian when King Beldar III was assassinated by a band a rebels under the command of his son, Prince Valdor. This thew the kingdom into confusion. Valdor took the throne in attempt to restore order to the realm, but was himself assassinated. A power struggle began. Lords fought amongst themselves, barons fought their lords, knights fought barons, and serfs were stuck in the middle of this maelstrom. War raged daily in Tristrian, with no visible outcome. The once fertile land was now covered in the blood of its own. Unfortunately, no one could amass a large enough army to crush their opponent and end the war. Many people took refuge in the mountains, where they created clans, and began building a new kingdom, which became known as Catacombs.

        But as the War for Power continuted, another struggle began in the mountain kindgoms. Soon the war carried itself into the Catacombs. Clans amassed armies of heros and monsters in an attempt to gather more resources and power. And this is where you begin, at the begining of the middle, where there is no end. The fate of your Catacomb, and the kindom of Tristrian is in your hands. Use your power wisely, for there are others who would gladly use it for you.
