Plane Origin Story
The first written histories of man tell tales of a great migration, when the earliest ancestors came from another world, and first set foot on the Ohethi grasslands. They became a nomadic people, spreading out in tribes, never settling. For millennium they spread out eventually covering the entire continent, stretching from one sea to the next. It is sometime around then that two names emerged. The legendary warriors Bruza and Slod, each leaders of the earliest settlements, on either side of Ohethi. They started the first conquests, absorbing the lands and peoples around them, to form the first civilizations of man. Bruza was a military genius, utilizing superior weaponry and tactics to overpower any who opposed him. He built a totalitarian regime around him, rigid military laws and strict social codes kept his empire running like a well oiled machine. Slod, on the other hand, was a scholar of nature. His settlements were built in vast forests, harnessing the power and magic of nature. With the aid of great beasts and powerful sorcery, he swept through the lands, conquering all before him. The empire of Bruzura had control of the western plateaus and the empire of Slodar the eastern forests, and eventually they met, two great forces, where the Ohethi plains met the Bay of Dashe, and they an epic battle was fought. The two armies battled for ten days, and on that tenth day, Bruza and Slod met in the epic final battle, the determination of the ultimate winner. Bruza wielded two great swords, a towering giant of a man honed in many years of battle. Against him was Slod, dressed in his shamanic robes, great wells of magic at his disposal. Their fight was epic, Slod unleashed waves of beasts upon Bruza, who slew them one by one, undeterred. Bruza finally pushed through, and met Slod face to face. He struck a mighty blow, knocking Slod back, mortally wounding him. Convinced in his vicotry, Bruza turned away, only to have Slod unleash a torrent of pure magic, annihilating them both. Each side lost innumerable casualties that day, and each staggered home, wary of starting another great war. They remained this way, in an uneasy truce, for two hundred years. As smaller nations rose and fell around them, each Empire persisted, harboring in their corners of Ohethi, waiting for the next aggression to spark the second great war.
Bruza and Slod
This is only the start to a larger plane that I am trying to develop. There are other factions I want to weave in, and hopefully add some planeswalkers as well. If anyone has any critiques or ideas I would be really happy to hear them.
yeaGO is there a reason that when on the forum post preview page the Spoiler shows up for non-upgraded users, but once they actually post it, the Spoiler text disappears?
Anyways, I'll have to fix it so that my massive block of text shows up now.
