(The following document was copied from the Royal Library
of Kaurath July 603 E.R.)
A land of myth and legend, both savage and noble, where
the way of the sword is tempered through the power of the bard; a wild,
dangerous land, where forgotten horrors and untold mysteries walk the haunted
Plains of Morathel. In the land of the warrior kings, on the border of the
Barrowhart only the strong survive. For this is the land of the Forgotten, the
home of the Kaurathel, the Kingdom of Kaurath.
Kaurath is a kingdom on the brink. A land ravaged by centuries of war, brought
to the edge of decay by siege and strife. The kingdom of Kaurath is a wild,
savage place with enemies on all fronts. To the south, lies the once beautiful
land of the Plains of Morathel. It is now a land rent asunder by foul magics; a
place where many heroes have died and Icons fear to tread. To the northwest
Kaurath is protected by the vigilant Watch. There they protect the kingdom from
the Barrowhart, a land of unspeakable horrors where the creatures of darkness
rule.
The winds of change are raging across Kaurath. King Vichol, Ruler of the Nine,
has issued a call for help. For nine centuries it has endured by the duty and
sacrifice of his people but now the end of the Kaurathel may be neigh. Worn
weary by constant struggle and internal strife King Vichol fears for the future
of his kingdom.
Months ago a mysterious messenger from a distant kingdom came offering the king
a chance to ensure the continued protection of his people. He offered the good
king a chance to join the rich, powerful kingdom of Evendarr. There he would
become a Duke and his queen, the Duchess. He would have access to forces both
great and powerful and be given a chance to defeat, once and for all, the forces
of Darkness threatening his people. He would be given a chance to guarantee the
continued safety of the Kaurathel.
He presented the possible solution to his many children, most supported the
idea, save his eldest, Prince Nicholi. A great argument ensued and Nicholi left
the capitol vowing to stand against any treaty subjugating the Kaurathel to the
rule of the Evandarrians. Vichol now has a choice, betray his people for their
own protection, or face the evils of his homeland alone.
The Kaurath Campaign takes you, as a player, back to the frontier. It brings you
back to the wild, mysterious places of epics and legend. Enter a world rich in
culture and story, where you can get lost in the lands and her people.
Investigate the mysterious and secret Surullinen Forest, come sing with the
bards and feast with the gypsies of Kasember, riddle with the Sidhe, and
decipher the ancient runes scrawled on ruins in the Plains of Morathel.
The future of the Kaurath Campaign at NERO Hartford is yours to decide. Will you
choose to join King Vichol and become a part of the Kingdom of Evendarr, or will
you side with Nicholi, the Rogue Prince and try to claim Kaurath for the people
of the Kaurathel? In the Kingdom of Kaurath the choice is yours.
Come to the Kingdom of Kaurath, where legends become reality.
