Future Events

A year has now passed. At the close of the last bloody masquerade the Lord of the house Nostre demanded another gathering of his kind, and, with the condition mortals once again be invited, the Host have obliged him.

The Host, the facilitators and arbitrators of the vampiric world. The strange and enigmatic Host invite the nations to partake in what they call the great game, to influence the politics of their kind and bear witness to the fulfilment of prophecy.

But what lies behind this invitation?

In the borderlands of Siberia, high on Songara pass, the Host keep a vault. What lies within has been the subject of great debate, but all that is certain is that it is an ancient creature of power. The Host h… (read more in event details)

Lonesome Pine, a great circle, a legendary place in the history of the warhost. Quiet for many years terror now stalks the woods. Strange unrecognisable creatures and undead roam the forest attacking any not wise enough to flee, None of the great cultures of Undeath accept responsibility and the Teutonian Civil Service has confirmed these undead are not of Teutonian origin.

As if this plague was not bad enough, the Ritual Circle has fallen silent with none able to scry it or open a way to it, as if something has taken hold and denies all others access. Are these two mysteries linked and if they are, what lies behind them? Teutonia asks its friends and allies to come to Lonesome Pine, help us free the great ritual circl… (read more in event details)

It is not for Bastion to hold a Fayre - we are not for gentle games among friends. Instead, Bastion is holding a Tourney, a competition where friends and enemies alike will compete against one another. Perhaps one side or the other will demonstrate their superiority, perhaps in such competitions wars can be foreshortened and lives saved. Perhaps not.

But let it be known that the Sharrow and the Yndrath, the Dark Academy and others will be present at this Tourney. There is no rule of peace for Bastion, just the rule of Harak’s war and the pillars of Mastery.

So come prepared for battle, come prepared for competition, to put all your skills to work to demonstrate that you are right, that your way is the best way. Sho…(read more in event details)

A dry wind whips across the Steppe, carrying the harsh pronouncements of the Yndrath: “Relinquish your magic, or face the consequences.” These grim fanatics, obsessed with fears of a world consumed by uncontrolled arcane energies, desperate for a World free of magic, have seized the Mint, the source of all money among the nations as well as its great Ritual Circle.

With control of the Mint’s Ritual Circle, the Yndrath seek to sever our very connection to the magical forces that bind us to this land and to each other.

Late spring's vibrant magic is threatened by their presence, and the voices of the Ancestors rise in defiance. Genghis Hamta, The Chosen Heda An, and Janic, Voice of the People, have called for …(read more in event details)

Dear Allied Nations,

Estragales and house De Avlos would cordially like to invite the people of your fine warhost to join us at the centre of arts and culture in Trioria for a matter of diplomacy with the emergent nations of the Sharrow and Yndrath and the Renewal of Magic.

Trioria also offers the finest entertainment in the known lands and the chance to impress and make a name for yourself abounds. Be you a poet, a bard, an actor or just a patron of the arts you will find yourselves immersed in a world of delights, join us at our theatre or get lost in the beaut…(read more in event details)

The Wolves of Norsca extend a hearty invitation to all factions to join us in the verdant Summerfields of our homeland.

Following the camaraderie fostered by the Fir Cruthen’s Free Peoples’ Games, we seek to nurture this goodwill in our new world. In the spirit of Hausta, or "festival", we will in turn honour the Gods Freya and Freyr through ancient rites, celebrating fertility, new beginnings, and reconciliation.

Under Norsca’s grand Laws - with Lord Wolf, nobles, and magistrates as witnesses - we welcome all to this gathering. We encourage everyone from all nations to share their unique rites and traditions, demonstrating their devotion to these themes. Let’s show Freya and Freyr how their influence pe…(read more in event details)

As the warhosts of the allied factions depart from the homelands of the Kabourashi, there is much for them to think about on their long journey home.
The discovery of threats, incursions and the destabilizing of the planes
The powerful members of the conclave and their schemes and plans
The dawn of a new world that mortal will made manifest

The Voyage home will be long but there is the offer of respite for those willing to make a slight detour.

Umrada Cole and the Unicorn of Caledonia ‘Bree McFergus’ would like to invite all of the allied warhosts to join them for the Fayre of the Highland games graciously hosted by the McRob Clanfolk of Duin Fries.

There will be festivities to enjoy and competitio…(read more in event details)

The worlds are gone, long live the New World. In an act of graciousness, the Xanakawe of Kabourashi have extended an invitation for all peoples worldwide to convene on the impartial Xanake Isle of Tannae on the True Plane.

Although it seems as if the world has changed under our feet and many among us are wondering what has happened the great cultures of the Oathbound peoples and their elemental counterparts have offered a deal - if you will come and meet with an open mind and truth on your lips then they will make sure all of what has happened to the world in these last few years is made clear.

Yet this should not be your only reason to mix with the representatives of the different planes for there are rumours of s…(read more in event details)

We live in interesting times.

The crashing of the plane of illusion and the twisting effects on reality brought by it have led us to this point, and whilst the scholars and philosophers of the united factions seek the truth of what is happening the requirement for magic, arms and armour remains ever-present.

An ancient enemy, once believed to have been defeated, rises again. And if the harrowing visions foreseen are proven to be true then the Wyrd lord will use a great cauldron of dark magics to wash away all life from the isles of the painted peoples. Only a fool would believe they would stop there.

The Summer King of the Fir Cruthen calls upon the allied nations of the free peoples to gather as one to bring…(read more in event details)

As the first rays of sunlight burst over the horizon towards the rebellion-held town of Stubr the locals look out hoping for a peaceful start to an early summers morning. The locals see more than just the fishing boats in the dawn. Ships sailing fast towards the shore, familiar looking vessels with round shields down each side and fearsome visages carved into their prows.

Invasion it seems goes both ways and while the Teutonian forces have been distracted it would seem the ever crafty Norscans have seen their chance. Many of the warriors carry the markings of the goddess Hel, her rune stitched into the sails. The warriors songs begin but are all of those warriors still living? what are the creatures clung to the sides of …(read more in event details)

As the warhost begins to come to terms with what has happened to the cosmos, there is still one place that they have not visited: the land of Jarfin and Bothvar, of the flamboyant Xiomara Fuchs, of Dieter, and of Heda’An.

Emperor Ryker of Teutonia has made true on his threats to invade, and his army has begun its attack on the southern coast of Norsca. A war between Norsca and Teutonia would have seismic effects on the Allied Nations, and so they have called for an emergency diplomatic summit to try to resolve the tensions. The leader of the Teutonian resistance force, Xiomara ‘Mara’ Fuchs, must persuade the nations to assist her in removing the brutal dictatorship which is fronted by the Emperor and his sister, Giselle. …(read more in event details)

The High Monarch gazed forlornly across the smoldering trees of Elmet. The pogrom against the Elven nuisance had been devastating, for all Blackwell the Blackhearted had insisted it was necessary. Still, a small part of him remained unsure of the path they took.

His introspection was interrupted by the entrance of one of his closest advisors, the Baron Grysophrex. “Our ...” - they paused momentarily, grappling for composure before almost spitting the next word - “allies in Teutonia, and Siberia seem to be readying fleets to help us crush the zealots. Soon we shall wring the last vestiges of worship from your lands.”

The High King's gaze turned east towards Elvesham, and its mist enchanted forest. “Soon…”
