Shadow Oghr (Historic)

Shadow Oghr (Historic)

In the high days of the Oghr Empire and during the 5th Groth dynasty ( around 1200 OTT), a powerful class of Necromancers / Priests openly represented by an influential Vizier and advisor to   Rakrir Groth the Terrible ( 3rd Emperor of the Groth Dynasty). The Mystics mixed science, psionics and Nether world lore. While their mythology and approach was more than questionable, they had a great influence in the rise of technology and influence (raising the Oghr Empire from TL 3 to TL 4) in only two generations.

This trend continued under Barox Groth, the Iron foot (4th Emperor) even though many historians believe he was a mere puppet of the Vizier and the now firm established Empire of Shadows. Emperor Iron foot declared (1308 OOT) the Groth Dynasty to be over and abdicated the Throne of Bones to the High Vizier (his name was erased from history by later Emperors).

The High Vizier expanded the Oghr Empire including all the previously independent Oghr species. Including the Fair Supremes (who maintained much of the old technology of Thana Shoo). Raising the Oghr Empire to TL 6.

Legend has it that a Prince of direct blood line to Falrick Groth (the 1st Groth Emperor) was raised far from the Oghr Empire, by the equally legendary Togar King himself. This Legend has it that a mystical human woman appeared to the Prince, claiming to be a Demon of Nether world heritage and named Alycia [1].She claimed that the Vizier dabbled in knowledge and arts that could destroy all Oghr and mean the end of the Universe, [2]

The prince raised an Army and with the help of the Togar King and the Demon woman swept the Vizier and the Shadow Empire from power and restored the Groth Dynasty [3]

There are no factual historic documents of that event, but a rich treasure of Faery Tales and legends much loved by Oghr of all species. Part of the Legend contains references to a huge black Imperial Hound, which supposedly awakened and took the belt of Clout, after defeating terrible monsters raised by the Vizier.

The Vizier was killed and t6housands of his followers either fled or were exiled and became the similar legendary Shadow Oghr.

All Oghr firmly believe they still exist and are the true reason the Oghr Empire fell and shattered. but no one has seen a Shadow Oghr or knows where they live.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">[2] Some documents of Coven origin point to the fact that the Dark Ones Girdle of Clout was kept underneath the Throne of Bones and that this Vizier somehow managed to tap its enormous power and potentially rise the Dark One before the intended reincarnation.
