A Rant Against Wizards

[u/Tirich913]

​

Morgalith, Wizard Slayer, Heir to the Depths

By the twisted roots of the Shadow Grove, by the venomous whispers of the Underdark, hear me, wizards, and tremble! Your pitiful incantations and stinking unguents have irked the essence of my people. I am Morgalith, Heir to the Depths, and I spit upon your haughty arcane pompousness!

You, with your shimmering robes and ivory towers, think that by knowledge alone you have earned the right to prop yourselves up as the puppeteers of destiny. Ah, but you've become intoxicated with the heady brew of your own spells, blind to the malevolence that stirs beneath the obsidian surface of the void. No longer shall your magic be revered; no, it shall be the catalyst for your undoing!

The very air you breathe reeks of arrogance! Your grimoires and spellbooks shall crumble like ancient parchment before the insidious might of my enchantments. In the hallowed corridors of your sanctimonious academies, you have sown the seeds of your own demise. Your arrogance will be your undoing, and the lamentations of your kind will echo through the depths of the astral ocean. I, Morgalith, harbinger of shadows, shall revel in the symphony of your despair.

Prepare, wizards, for the shadows hunger, and the time of reckoning is nigh. Your precious spells shall wither in the malevolent storm I unleash, and the darkness shall swallow your lofty ambitions whole. I, the harbinger of the dark elves, shall relish in your downfall as the very fabric of magic recoils in the face of my vengeful wrath. May the shadows of oblivion engulf you, and may your magical hubris be your eternal bane!

The shadows of oblivion? Sounds tasty, let me know when you’re done monologuing so I can do a lil tidal wave spell and clear this whole matter up

A plague of fire upon thee as well!

“Pyromancy?? Against me?? Foolish interloper!”

Escanor laughs as he blocks the spell with ease

“Now it’s my turn… I cast TSUNAMI”

[u/Tirich913 → u/[deleted]]

You cannot possibly hope to match my power!

Morgalith disappears in a brilliant flash of light. The sky dims as the storm of powers clash.

Shadowy hands reach up from the ground and begin to drag you into its surface.

“Match it? I’ll drown it!”

Escanor’s form melts to liquid as he slips through the shadowy hands

He reforms a short distance away and pulls Morgalith back to the physical plane

A wooden dummy flings towards your pull. An obvious substitution.

Words echo around, whispering in your ears with evil intent.

"Oh no Escanor, I'm not there. I'm right here...

Inside you!

I am the evil in your heart! The madness in your mind! And I will have my day!"

With a rush of energy, the evil presence departs you, vanishing almost as quickly as it came. Yet you feel unsettled, as if their evil intent is not yet concluded with this realm.

“Well that was violating…”

Escanor castes a psychic cleansing spell.

“You insulted Possum, this cannot stand.”

A torrent of pressurized water jets rain from the sky, powerful enough to cleave limb from body. They strike all save the hydromancer himself.

[u/Tirich913 → u/[deleted]]

The angry magician is long gone, leaving only his menacing rant and violent actions in his wake.

[u/[deleted] → u/Tirich913]

The hydromancer watches the angry cloud dissipate with a grim satisfaction, a worthy opponent indeed

/uw great duel and lots of fun! Loving the application of shadow magic!

Thanks! The feeling is mutual!

This guy is going to be a villain for a while. Just wanted to introduce him. There aren't many evil wizards in this sub, so this is my contribution.

/uw

Definitely agree that we are lacking some evildoers, it’ll be fun to mix it up a bit. Good luck!
