House Greytower

"'You never thought much of the Greytower troops at first. That ridiculous armor. Too many mages for the swordsmen to protect. And that war dance, or whatever you'd call it. We'd laugh when they'd arrive on the battlefield. But then you start to notice. How they never seem to fall. How the ones that fall before them stand back up and turn around to fight their own. No one was laughing then.'""~ A veteran soldier"

Overview
Since a time before recorded history, a bloodline of powerful warlords has reigned in the south of Ealsimorr. In the time before Vilnus I, they were tribal warriors whose ferocity and conquest went unparalleled. With the civilization of the continent, they became one of the most powerful and sought after mercenary houses in the empire. Though madness, jealousy, and greed have led to dark periods in their history, their power has always been without question, their services always in high demand. The secret to their might? Necromancy. Indomitable armies of both the living and the dead made the Greytowers masters of the battlefield. Until the Scourge. The dreadful blight has cast the Greytower's lands and armies into ruin. But the bloodline is not extinguished. Even in the midst of the wastes, House Greytower survives, and its scions have immense ambitions...
