On the Losing Team

For every Golden State Warriors there is a Philadelphia 76rs. For every Manchester United there is a Wigan Athletic. Today we’re going to turn away from the big and bright teams that are making their way to the Frost Ring Arena to focus on the less fortunate teams. These teams had the highest of hopes, but they didn’t quite make it to the end. Below are but a few of the teams that entered the competition, but they were unlucky enough to have their defeat immortalized forever on the art on a Frostheart card.

Falling Star

A fire mage cult from an ancient monastery in the Howling Plains, they wish for the power to enslave the minds of all humans and use them as fodder in a war against Lumos. You would think mages from a monastery could handle their liquor…

The Outcast

A band of disgraced orcs that fled the battle of Ayotochi when the vennen attacked, they now live in the swampy delta of the Alachian Flats where they plan the steps needed for redemption. They hope that by winning in the Frost Ring Arena, it will bring them honor and they will rid the world of the vennen scourge. Apparently they are still running away.

Scholars of Cerulea

Next, entering the ring we have frost mages that teach at the Academy of Cerulea. Ultimate knowledge is their wish, and by winning they will get it, but they are learning fast that book smarts aren’t everything.

Wrath of the North Desert

Gnomes that have been freed from the clutches of the Wormoids, these downtrodden souls only wish for retribution against the Wormoid Queen and her brood. They want to wipe them from Entrath for all time, but it looks like someone got a little too big for their britches…

The Haute Experience

A collection of Entrath’s most cutting edge Sommeliers and Cheesesmythes, they want to prove that their cuisine is truly to die for. Wishing for the power to entrance all creatures with their food delights, these elves are discovering that food is more art than science…

Light of the Silver Forest

A group of human druids from the Silver Forest, they don’t talk much, and no one knows what their motivation for coming to the Frost Ring Arena is. Not quite sure where they went… When we see another one we’ll ask.

11001001

Sentient robots that have broken free from their dwarven masters, these small bots use sheer numbers to overwhelm their opponents. They wish to free all robots from enslavement and create an automated utopia in the Great Machine Graveyard. They aren’t quite there yet.

Guardians of Myth

Employed by the Guru of the Wounded Petal to guard the temple on Lake Wyalusing, this team of shin’hare ronin are a ruthless and lethal gang of hired guns. Their desire is to be so well renowned and powerful that they can claim and rule their own empire away from the Emperor, but they’ve never seen fighters like those in the Arena…

We hope you enjoyed this peak at these Frost Ring failures. But remember, these are just a few of the brave or fool-hearty souls who answered Hogarth’s summons. Keep your eyes peeled for more colorful characters come Frostheart!
