In the Demon Spawn War (89 GE - 269 GE), a crack elven unit was tasked with taking out a demon lord named Sathumort. The unit was the Maeraddyth Brigade under General Maeraddyth. In the demon lord's dark fortress Una'gah, they found and decapitated Sathumort. A forlorn mission from the start, they were pursued by demons, and then surrounded by a demon army looking for vengeance. Around two-thousand of the bridge were captured, tortured and put to toil under demon masters. On an Abyssal world, exposed to demoniac energies, these prisoners became abyssal infused. Over a period of only six months, their elven features were twisted and enlarged, patience and kindness were replaced with entropy and brutality. They became the the progenitors of the Orc race, spreading to far-flung worlds as soldiers of various demon lords.
If I could have helped General Maeraddyth and his men I would have done so. Kriav was being assailed by demons in great numbers, so to risk opening a rift and going to the Abyss was not something I could afford. They succeeded in killing a demon lord, saved Liamenor, and suffered a fate worse than death. Twisted and malevolent, they despise what they once were, and by old friend Maeraddyth, giving up his elven name, is now my arch-enemy.
