STORY
Silverstar Races.
Hrugrai'ans
Humanoid race
Silvermoon
A break off from the Gharnians, the Hrugrai'ans (Hrugai for short) left their Gharnian (Gharn) ansestory to persue the power of machinery and alchemy. They allied themselves with the goblins, and slowly built up their powers untill 231 years later they pushed the Gharn armies out of Silvermoon and took over control there, now their technological powers make them powerful opponents, and the discovery of gunpowder has set them ahead of their enemies. They are steadfast allies with the Jungle Orcs, being the only race to come to their aid 94 years ago during the Great Orc Cleanse instagated by the Ratdraven and their Magi Allies.

The inhabitants of Twistvine Forest, the Jungle Orcs (or Oorraagahrr as they call themselves) compromise of Troll, Hobgoblin and Orc races. They are a Power and Agility based race, with the Orcs providing the beef and the trolls provoding the ranged while the Hobgoblins (a break off race from the normal Goblins) provide spell support, a powerful race they are steadfast allies with the Hrugai, and have been for over 90 years since the Great Orc Cleanse when the Ratdraven and their Magi allies tryed to clense the forests for themselves.

When the great war broke out they kept themselves to themselves, hiding in their impenatrable fortress and continueing the mining of their gold. However recently the Centaurs and Ratdraven have been launching attacks on the shores of Highpeak, and the Dwarves have been forced to take action. Sporting powerful mechanical abilities and dwarven runic magic, this race is by far the strongest upon Silverstar, but they have no allies and no direct enemies.

They sport Ancient and Draconic magics, a fast move speed and attack speed, but a weakish attack and HP. Steadfast allies of the Gharn who landed on their shores 220 years ago, they live in the north area of Windfall Desert Isle where they have lived at peace untill about 200 years ago, when they launched a surpise attack with the Gharns against the Hrugai fortress, the attack ultimately failed, but it did enforce the alliance with the Gharns as they fought side by side.

Ratdraven
Ratman and Draven race.
Plaugelands
The Ratmen (Skaven in their Language) inhabit the Plaugelands, until about 132 BR they were quite harmless, however at approximately 131 BtR the Skaven started to grow stronger and get more dangerious, the South Swamp Creatures were forced out by overwhelming Skaven forces. It was not discovered untill 190 AR just how and why they were becoming stronger, when a Skaven force attacked the Northern swamps and some Draven Warlords were spotted amongst the Skaven Clan Leaders, approximately 20 years later a Gharn taskforce made a temporary treaty and discovered why the Skaven were growing stronger and how they were getting their resources. Apparently the Draven or Half-Raven' had arrived in 150 BR and had taken control over the various Skaven Clans, forging them into a powerful fighting force and taking on the name Ratdraven.

Lost Mages or Magi
Mage and Summoned race.
Illusion Isle
The Magi were once the powerful overlords of the world of Silverstar, but nearly 4000 years ago their reckless use of Magic brought the wrath of the Gods down on them, the Gods destroyed their tower and plunged the world beneath the waves. Only the combined power of the 5 Great Ones stopped the world from sinking beneath the waves forever, as it was they only managed to stop it from sinking completly, leaving only the highlands showing above the waters, they lost their lives in the attempt. Now the Magi inhabit Illusion Isle, the remains of their once mighty Mage Tower, and plot to recover what was rightfully theirs. One of their plans was to send the Draven, some of their people who had bonded with Ravens, to control the Skaven hordes to the north and unleash them upon their enemies, now the two races attempt to regain control of their world, who knows what ulterior motives the Magi have, but it is ovbiously not good.
