Backstory of H2G2 Online Adventures:
The year is 638 AC (after creation), the world is a restless place. Seninia, the capital of the human cities, was underattack by legions of orcs, goblins, ogres, trolls, and much more. The city put up a good defense but didnt get word to its allies in time to defend the city to its fullest. The king of the city sent out messangers to ride to there allies the elves, dwarves, and halflings. To the kings regret each messanger was shot by crossbows 10 times while on horse back. Anyone who tried to enter the city such as caravan's or a lonely traveler was immediatly hunted down to contain there secret attack on the human city.
Later on, the enemy orcs set up catapults and battering rams, and began moving into a attacking position. Orgres took the front of the assault with large broad shields protecting goblins with crossbows shooting at the Seninia's soldiers. On the other side of the city, Dark Elves and Iksar began casting powerful spells to bring down the protective walls of Seninia.
The men of Seninia desperatly tried to defend there city. With each passing moment the dark army crept forward gaining precious ground on Seninia. The men with there longbows continued to shoot from the towers stationed at the walls, mages standing along the wall casting powerful spells causing death and destruction. Still the dark army came forward.
After about two days worth of fighting, orcs got there battering ram in place and protected so they can batter down the door. Some of Seninia's soldiers ran off the wall to brace the oncoming slaughter that awaits them. The Dark Elves and Iksar, sought this chance to break through the portion they have been bombarding with spells.
The leader of the Dark Elves was there personally at the front of the line waiting for there mages to break the wall down. After spell after spell after spell, the dark elves and iksars combined forces brought the wall crumbling down. The leader of the Dark Elves, General Xi'Golv grinned a evil grin, and pulled out his magical two-handed sword, that pulsated black.
The men on top of the walls paniced with fear, with the fear of their deaths and their beloved families. The king, King Joseph Trealad, saw that he had no more time left to hope for a miracle. The king was a magician with high powers that he got from his fore fathers. The king began to cast a spell that would take his own lifes energy to summon up such a powerful spell. It took the king twenty minutes just to say the entire spell. The king held up his arms and reached for the heavens, a force that can only be explained by the gods, came up out of the spirit of the king. The creature looked like it was on fire and flapping its gigantic wings, it was given the name by the eldest race as the Phoenix.
Before the king died from his spell, he gave the phoenix orders on what to do. He told the magnificant creature, to take his kingly sword and a letter that he had written to the High Elves of the Republic of Fenith. The letter said to rally up the alliances, for if you received this letter it means that the Kingdom of Seninia. The Elven Leader knew this was true from the creature that delivered it, and the weapon that was given as well. For this was a weapon that was made to slay the puriest of evil. The blade was a longsword, with a golden handle and runes all up and down the blade.
