Map and Backstory of "Elgrims Chosen"
I prepared the Map. I was to lazy to paint hexes went with bricks instead. Since i am bad at drawing i will use pictogramm like drawings. I added some runes, words and translations to deadspace on the map for ambience. The Map has 22 squares. Should that not be enough i will add another 22 atop with a second sheet of paper. I wanna do a shorter campaign.
Here a small backstory written by me in german and translated by AI. Since the wardancers go with somekind of celtic Theme in the book i used tribal celtic and germanic elements to reflect that:
The Eleni Tribe
The Eleni were a tribe of natives who once lived in the central hill lands of what is now known as No Man’s Land. They worshipped a divine couple: Elgrim, the Elk God, and his wife Elen, the Lady of the Spiritual Paths. Their people lived scattered across a dozen villages and two sanctuaries — one dedicated to Elgrim and one to Elen. They were known as healers and spiritual seekers, respected for their balanced nature and defensive way of life.
During the long war, they became frequent targets for armies and mercenaries. Many of their villages were burned, and Elen’s sanctuary was reduced to ashes. They were robbed, violated, and slaughtered again and again. Now, with the land left in ruins, the survivors have simply been abandoned to their fate.
Filled with rage, the remaining Eleni gathered at Elgrim’s sanctuary. Sacrifices were offered, the Godfather was consulted, old weapons and armor were reforged, and warriors were chosen (Elgrims Chosen). The Chosen now march — not to heal, but to punish this rotting world and reclaim their ancestral lands.
They will live in peace again…
once their enemies lie dead in the dust.
