BlackOrcs: Defense of Soubar

Dwellers of Soubar look to the South East, as the last remnants of local bandits and straggler merchant caravan retreat into the makeshift town. According to reports, what remains of the blackorc warbands have started to march from the Trielta hills.

Local 'authorities' release last minute dispatchers to local townships in a final plea for aid.



/////this event will take place sometime tomorrow early to mid evening US ((Friday night event basically should be a bit late for euro's but not too too late)). Those who have already acted have had their plans set into motion, I expect any additional participants to spend the day RPing setting up defenses in the town. Given expected server population, I will not allow last minute joiners at the time of action.

Feel free to use this thread to RP any last minute leadup./////

BlackOrc War bands have continued to coalesce around the lawless northern town of Soubar. Caravan movements have ceased due to the a substantial recent increase of attacks, and several roaming bandits in the area have retreated to the town due to the increased Blackorc presence.

In desperation, local leaders send missive to nearby centers of civilization calling for adventurers and aid against this mounting threat. Meanwhile, they struggle to organize the ragtag populous in attempts to prepare some sort of defenses, should the orcs organize and threaten the lawless tradeway town.

The Blackorc war bands - pale remnants of the once mighty hoard which had held much of the woods of Sharptooth and sacked the now desolate town of Triel - have begun migrating out of the hills and forests to which they had scattered throughout the north. Pushed out by fear as a darker presence has descended upon the reaching wood and cast its shadow among the whole of the northern Sword Coast.

Caravans and smaller settlements struggling to eek out a living in this harsh lawless land have seen an increase in blackorc raids over recent weeks, as desperate migrating war bands seek new resources and new dens.

Sailors, Navigators, and Astrological enthusiasts along the sword coast are abuzz about a recent stellar phenomenon. A star in the northern sky has begun burning more brightly over the sword coast, so much so that it remains visible during daylight hours.

The region's Clerics, soothsayers, shamans and charlatans clamor to offer varied interpretations of what Omens this sudden phenomenon portends.

the black orc hoard... or what malnourished stragglers remain of it... are decimated by the defenders of Soubar. The sky is red that day, as the ground is stained with black blood... A star falls


All eyes beneath the open sky look to the north, as the mysterious star falls. The earth shakes as it hits somewhere NorthEast of Soubar

////a portal is up to the crash site in northern tradeway, all are welcome to visit it tonight, until reset.////
