  1. The conflict between the Red War Paladin Captain and Rancor the Razer was nearing its finale.

    The prolonged war had seen the Paladin Captain’s forces dwindle to a shadow of their former glory and numbers, while Rancor seemed to draw from an endless source of troops and power. At last, the Captain, nearly bereft of allies, found himself surrounded on all sides by Rancor and his forces, who were about to deal their final blow.

    Suddenly, the Paladin heard a voice speaking directly to his mind.

    It was a voice so alien as to be terrifying in its strangeness. It carried an unnatural intelligence and foreignness, as if it belonged to a being that had had lived long enough to see the birth and death of stars, but was only speaking in the language of man for the first time.

    In otherworldly tones bleeding with disdain and loathing, it spoke its name to the Paladin: Shagor-Ulna. It revealed to him that Rancor had sold his soul to a being from the underworld known as Hastireth. This demon was the bottomless well from which Rancor drew his immense strength and influence.

    It promised the Captain power from the other planes, beyond the wildest dreams of man. The power to defeat Rancor, the pawn of Hastireth, Shagor-Ulna’s eternal enemy.

    All it would cost him was his sanity.

    Now, both factions overflow with terrifying energy as the two otherworldly beings, unable to leave their home planes, bend the will of thousands to fight as pawns in their stead!

    Now begins the final showdown between Rancor the Razer and the Red War Paladins, between malice and madness!

    Tarnished Circlets


    Equipment rewards from this Season behave differently than others, and allow you to select the preferred balance of stats. Upon completion of the Season you will be rewarded with one of the four Tarnished Circlets. Once you have this you must then purchase one of either the Kindlestone of Force, Kindlestone of Subtlety, or Kindlestone of Equilibrium gems from the store.

    These Circlets are only one level, and have no enchanting required!

    These gems will combine with your Tarnished Circlets to create the final stat item in either the Attack, Spy, or Balanced variation.

  6. Banner is indicated in rewards.

    -Reaching 100 medallions

  7. Question: do the bonus medallions for actions/ko's/plunder go to the losing clan, or just the winning clan??

    And.......I suppose it's too late to suggest letting us cast woc in clan and have higher % chance of matching with our clanmates?
