The Crag

• Is a druid named Cemcrall Crag leads who leads a resistance to Treonol Autocrat
• The resistance he leads is a cobbled together alliance of different people and different groups with very differing goals
• The Crag is a fanatic in his pursuit of returning Treonol to a freer but far more brutal time
• A cult has arisen around him and he uses this to entrench his position as a tyrant of the dark and the living agent of the Dark Heart of the Night
• He used the fury of betrayed Jayak warriors and surviving Jayak elders and used a dark ritual to “gifted” the strongest warriors with wolfen lycanthropy, granting them lycanthropy in addition to their existing levels as barbarians
• Other cult fanatics who have sworn a blood oath to the Dark Heart have been transformed into normal werewolves and are the ones often sent on suicide missions into the Treonol soldiers barracks
• He has a number of spies and informants among the Treonol people, especially those who long for a return to “the old ways”
• The old ways is the primitive, primal way of existence where the strong prevail and violence is both normal and desirable
• The Crag sees his people as having lost their way, having become soft, have lost their connection with the inner beast and have left their traditions behind

In Game

• Was bringing terror to those constructing forts and roads in the east of Treonol (his territory) using his werewolves to infiltrate encampments and army barracks to wreak havok
• The werewolves retreat to the forests during the day and move to a different location each time, normally near one of the many minor sanctuaries the Crag uses
• The Crag controls the werewolves while transformed, but does not automatically command them while in human form.
• Under the Crag’s control, the werewolves were attacking the strung out labourers camps. In the 4 weeks before the party arrived using ambush + hit & run tactics they had killed 200 workers and 75 Treonol soldiers. 2 of the werewolves had been killed but 7 very strong warrior werewolves remain.

“We no longer revere the beast. We run from it. We have forgotten to fear the dark. I am the dark heart that will change all that.”
