Tarantara
THE LANDS OF TARANTARA
Tarantara is a changing land. Alliances are formed and broken, and a constant battle for power threatens to rip apart what every race holds dear. A new evil arrises from the lands beyond the map, creatures huge and scaly and larger than the race of the proud dragons, and they break through to attack all. They disreagaurd the different species, and assault all creatures. But where do they come from? And why are they attacking? A small group of creatures, representatives from the races set off to gather knowlage about these beings in hopes of finding a way to defeat them. Following in the wake of the giants, are the Goblins, a new plague to the land. They have driven the dwarves from their mountain home and taken over most of Paerish. But the elves remain strong, and hold them at bay from their beloved forests and their capital, Heartwood. Will you fight for the land? Or work to send it to Chaos? Let the Horn sound...
