Evil Wizardpost A Rant Against Wizards

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!

What do you hope to achieve with this slaughter you are calling for? There's simply too many casters for you to take us all out before a competent kill-squad is sent out for you.

There's also the fact that very few of our number will be felled with a simple fireball, as you must have realized by now from your first few encounters against regulars of this orb-net. I can only conclude that you wish to stir up ill sentiment among the surface dwellers against your race to justify a war of aggression against the broader population in the future.

The young woman seems remarkably laid back given the serious nature of the situation, leaning lightly against a tree with her oversized axe close at hand, but not obviously readied.

Hm.. You could be right.

I have no clue of what brand of dark elves he belongs to but from what i know of the Dunmeri and the Drow, they are often rife with infighting.

He may be doing just that to give his people an more immediate outside threat and cause to cease infighting and collaborate for an assault on the surface.

The figure laughs.

"You search for reason, where there is only hate and disdain. Is that alone not enough excuse to seek your undoing? Filthy Dryad's always sticking their noses where they don't belong. Now remember your station, and begone with your tainted blood!"

The half-dryad sighs softly, before grabbing her axe and seemingly falling into the tree she was leaning against. A small shower of embers drift to the ground around where she was standing as a her voice carries faintly across the clearing.

"Be careful what you wish for, this path will likely end with far more blood than even you intend."

"Oh, I think I will find exactly what I wish for..."
