The Might of Turnskull

It had taken many years. Mnay harsh bloody years to solidify control fo his tribe and the numerous waring clans that made it up. It took bloodshed, ruthlessness, carage, it even took diplomacy, but it happened. Thog Turnskull had tured a few dozen bickering goblin and orc clans into a Wartribe of sizeable number. He and his black orc honor guard were at its heart. His orc boys and goblins were many and a few of them were even regiments disciplined enough to merit notice from human nations. He had fought several skirmishes and had not yet been defeated. He was not great yet, nor famous, but he was still a threat.

He looked over the area of the Northlands he intended to conquor. There were a few small villages and a manor made of what appeared to be nothing but ice.
There was a town below it, still small. He choose a different target this day. He was not yet strong enough for the manor. His leutinent, Orgash Hellscream, flanked him.

"What are your plans, Warchief?"
"For my plans to be realized, blood must be shed... We shall strike there."

Thog pointed towards a small village below the hill he currently stood on.

Zzyxx noticed crows gathering on the hill not far from his icy manor.

"War comes... Variah scout the hill."

His wolf did as she was bidden and Zzyxx himslef began to prepare the Bright Snow village bellow him to ready it self for war. At the same time, he dispatched people to post advertisements requesting aid in all major cities near all major establishments.

Azurel lands in front, but to the side to not obstruct his view, of Thog, the man that had hired the purple half-demon as a mercenary. He had just came from an aerial scouting mission and reported back.

"Somehow they know, they're preparing and sending for any available fighters from other towns"

Tobias had been wandering in that region at that moment when he heard the plea

"Sir! SIR!!!! YOU WITH THE SWORD!"

Tobias turned to face the small man running towards him, half of his armor had already been strapped on, yet his upper torso was still exposed

"You there...I don't know who you are, but our town is in dire need of more help...word from our manor detects war approaching on the nearby hills...can you help us?"

Tobias stared up towards the hill. He could see the crows as well. He could feel the tempest pouring there...the storms of war were approaching indeed, "Where is this manor...i'll help you."

The man pointed towards the manor, and Tobias began to run towards the icy establishment. It wasn't long before he arrived.

Thog looked over at the aerial demon he had hired. His hands were clasped neatly behind his back, his armor (while heavy) was well kept, even his hair and face seemed to be in good hygene. His face however, was a mass of scars, not that you could see it as it was hidden under the skull of a troll he had slain to gain control of his clan. He had renamed it the "Turnskull Clan" in memory of that event.
"I should have expected as much. My men, you see, are not the most... cleanly about their eating habbits. They leave the bloody remains of their victims unburied. Crows come in responce and we are detected by the experianced this way. It's inconsequential however... They don't know where we want to strike. Notify me of enemy troop movements. I want to know where they are comming from.
Thog turned to his Orgash.
"Prepare the troops to move out and tell them to try to keep it quite for now, eh?"
"Yes, Warchief."
Orgash gave a curt bow and rushed off to do his duty, smiling vilanously at the prospect of a good killing.
--Meanwhile--
Variah was on the outskirts of the orc camp. She walked as normal wolves to avoid detection and wolves were common in Orcish camps. She returned not long after discovering the orcs were moving out. She didn't know where, but she knew there were enough greenskins to do some damage.
--At the same time--
Zzyxx recieved Tobias at Frost Guarde, his manor. After bowing politely he began to speak.
"I'm sorry i can't be a better host, good sir, however, these times leave little room for hospitality. What is happening here, as i'm sure you have wondered, is an invasion. I'm not sure who these people are, but by the ways the crows gather, I would assume orcs, ogres, or frost giants. That is unimportant in the long run however. WE need your help, I'm trying to organize a restiance, and i want you to help lead it. You will not be unrewarded.... If you are interested, please talk to my militia commander.. That orc over there. He will brief you further, and again.. Thank you, these people needed help and rose to attempt to give it. WE can ask for nothing more."
With that, Zzyxx looked wistfully out of his window.
"It been a long time since i have seen war."

Tobias nodded, quietly like usual. And wheeled around. He paced towards the orc that Zzyxx had pointed to, and spoke, "Well...whats the plan?"

Diablo slowly flyies over towards the hord of Orcs and other types of creatures, he figured this side would have more to offer and if not then the other will do just as fine. The merc landed infront of the leader. Rayne/Azurel must of knew he was coming, they always could tell Diablo was coming due to the taint that was in him but not Kain, he was a diffrent and that pissed Diablo off a little. Diablo chose to let the leader speak first.

Tobias eyed the village. He would have preferred to be able to make it there in time...and to possibly help it out. But what has been ordered was ordered. He turned fervently and walked off, making his way to the "light strike force" he had. He decided before he left to take into account how many units he would be commanding.

well...back to the old days, Tobias.

(OOC: hey dood, I'm eyeing my little force, but to play the battle better, could i get an idea of how big my "light strike force" is? THANKS!! *explodes*)
