The Old Gods

The old gods once reigned over all of Ætheland, but with the spread of the Percian Empire their power has waned over the last several centuries. The power of the Percian gods, powered by their aggressive conversion of those they conquer, has pushed the old gods back to the shadows of the deep forests and the frozen north. Chief among the old gods is Braegor, warlord of the heavens, and it is he who chose Wulfgar to champion their return. Since his death, the men of the north have risen up against their former oppressors and the old gods have regained much of their lost power. With the Percian Empire now crumbling, they stand poised to once more dominate Ætheland.
