The Grey Lands

     You sit up with a shiver as icy wind courses through to the bone. Pulling your Grollskin nap sack tight around your chest you look around you. The land is barren, flat and grey all the way into the muddy brown horizon. The war between the Grand Shadow and the disgusting Humans had been raging for the past 200 years. What was once a land filled with many races accustomed to dark, cold, and wind had been brought together by the mysterious ruler of Grand Shadow. The ruler without a face, known only as the Grand Light, the one who shines a path toward the future. "We are all the children of Grand Shadow now" you think to yourself out loud.



     The cold coursing through your veins begins to become unbearable, reminding you of a deep seated and passionate hatred of all things cold and white, like other shape shifters.



"All those damn years in the Grand 6th Division Army, freezing my blood." You whisper to yourself "What kind of Shape Shifter gets cold?" you shake your head questioningly. "I better pack up my things before the damn 5th catches up with my ass" You sigh to yourself while looking at what little equipment you have.


FOOD is 35.
LIFE is 50.
TEMPERTURE is 75.
<p>The Groll are a wooly creature native to the Grey Lands. Their skins have a unique property that traps in heat, and causes ravage winds to wick moisture out without ever breaching its thick membrane.</p>

<p>You may use this Knapsack twice at most anytime to save the game and recover some life and warmth at the cost of hunger.</p>
Grollskin Knapsack <p>God and Goddess touched, these daggers are the highest order of holy item of the Shades and a symbol of the 5th Division. Made of a luminescent ever changing crystal that absorbs moonlight and sunlight into its finely cut edges so miniscule as to almost disappear when looking at them head on. Its colors shift subtly depending on the light absorbed. These daggers are bound to you and will also change colors momentarily based on your heightened emotions.</p>
Ra-euhl the Twin Crystal Daggers <p>Crafted by the finest of Ju-haun high alchemists work. They must be cased in utter darkness. Once they touch bright light they react to it violently sucking in all the light in the area creating a true wall of impenetrable black that spreads out great distances depending on its size and potency. Once it is entirely sated with light (after about 2-4 minutes) it will explode with all of the light contained, released instantaneously with heat that will scorch through armor and flesh alike.</p>
Ju-huan crafted Luminecent Vortexes <p>A rare fruit found mainly in the estates of affluent and power families in the cities of Dark Prosperity. One bite is enough to sate hunger and give enough energy for an entire day.</p>
Grouwr Fruit <p>Almost completely covered in rust, this Pendent has a bright yellow gem in the center. It is rusted shut. You can't open it.</p>
