Although the Obsidian Reaches are a hostile and vicious place, they are by no means uninhabited. Since the Black Sundering, this region has been cut off from material reality and is trapped inside the depths of the fiendish Abyss. Demons, the undead, living shadows, and other unspeakable horrors roam the dreadful wilderness of the Obsidian Reaches. The blood-red, never-setting sun bathes the land in a menacing deep red light.

The only tiny spark of hope in this surreal, disturbing nightmare is the city of Lastlight. It is the last and only place in the Obsidian Reaches where living humanoid creatures still exist that have not fallen victim to the corruption of the persistent demonic presence. It requires the tireless efforts of the magic users in Lastlight to maintain the protective barrier that surrounds the city and keeps out the seemingly endless horrors that, in their never-ending hunger, want to devour all living things. At the heart of this lonely harbor of light lies the Temple of Forgotten Dreams, the place where the Wrathbound gather. Battle-hardened warriors who have committed themselves entirely to the fight against the cruel hordes of the Abyss.

One of them rises above the rest: a towering half-wolf known as Kharag. His broad shoulders bristle with a pelt of coarse, black fur, and his eyes burn with a primal hatred. Each movement radiates raw strength, the kind that makes lesser warriors falter before a blow is even struck. In the blood-soaked outskirts of the Obsidian Reaches, few dare challenge him, for Kharag is known as one of their fiercest champions, a beast-born titan who even makes the most savage demon tremble in fear.
