Originally sent to the Southwest Region of Jalldoon as the Representative of the Ondska Empire on this corner of the Planet, Baron Dracktholme has built an Empire of Terror at the Dark Citadel. Baron Dracktholme has been a thorn in the side of good for many years. Continue reading “Who’s Who: Baron Dracktholme”
Unlike the other regions of the Planet (which are ruled by a hodgepodge of various royalty) the entire Northern Region of Jalldoon is under the control of one man. High Imperator Ondska wields great influence in The Covenant of Crowns due to his position as ruler of such a large swath of the Planet, and this power is what keeps his nephew Baron Dracktholme from facing justice for his “alleged” crimes against the people of the Southwestern Region of Jalldoon.
Squishy is the Slime that wears the crown.The Grand King of all Slimes is the latest in the royal line of kings going all the way back to the first slime to spawn from the elemental dust that is the mother of all Slimes. For years, ruling Slimedom was a fairly easy job for Slime Kings, but after the “birth” of Master Boshak, and the disappearance of his wife early in the current king’s reign the job became fraught with peril. Fortunately for good Slimes everywhere, King Valdar is fully capable of dealing with threats both inside and from outside the world of Slimes, and has done a wonderful job keeping his subjects safe from the despots currently terrorizing the land. Continue reading “Who’s Who: King Valdar”

Born shortly before the Queen vanished, Princess Ikari grew up never knowing her mother. After his wife’s disappearance the King became very protective of his young daughter, and kept a very close eye on the Princess. While her older brother Algor was free to adventure through the world of Jalldoon as he pleased, she was stuck in the Palace surrounded by body guards with barely a minute to herself. Continue reading “Who’s Who: Princess Ikari”
Delgon Shan joined Master Boshak’s army shortly after his brother was converted. Being big, strong, and of average intelligence Delgon wasn’t much use for anything besides basic grunt work and heavy lifting, but that all changed when Boshak and Baron Draktholm joined forces to take over all of Jalldoon. Continue reading “Who’s Who: Delgon”
In the recent battle at the portal to the Underworld Master Boshak managed to snatch up a small bit of Prince Algor’s slime that had been cut off with a particularly vicious blow to the young Prince’s arm. Boshak, ever the evil genius took this chunk of Algor back to the labs at the Dark Citidel and immediately set to making a duplicate of Prince Algor for nefarious purposes. Evil laboratory science has its risks however… especially when dealing with a substance as magical as slime, and the clone split into two during the incubation process. These twins came out of the tubes ready to bring the pain to all who oppose the tyrannical agenda of Master Boshak and Baron Draktholm. Dubbed Molotok and Kotolom these brothers prefer to wield vicious hammers in battle. The twins alternate their colors so people can tell the difference between them while still somewhat matching…because they always want their enemies to know who is about to bash them with a hammer.
Most Slimes in Master Boshak’s army are there because he used his evil powers to “convert” them, but not Skale…He was just plain evil from birth. Boshak first met Skale when he was hanging in a gibbet on the side of the road; Boshak asked what his crimes were to which Skale replied “everything and anything”. Boshak freed Skale from his prison, and in a short time Skale’s ruthless nature brought him to lead Boshak’s forces in the field. His brutal fighting style and his ability to instill fear has lead to him taking command of not only the evil Slimes, but also Baron Draktholme’s forces into battle. Skale is the basis of many people’s nightmares, and with good reason.
According to most ancient of Slime legends millennia ago when the Great Slime Father and Great Slime Mother first formed from the dust of the planet they had three children. As the planet started to be occupied by others (due to the opening of the rips in space and time) the Great Slime Mother realized they’d need to keep track of all the magic coursing through their planet for the safety of all, so she tasked her first born boys with cataloging these spells and items.
Dragostia the Divine, goddess of love they say resides in Morgunborg Wood deep deep inside the roots of a large tree adorned with hearts carved in time immemorial by the earliest ancestors of today’s Jalldoonians. Legend has it those who seek true love should make the pilgrimage to this sacred tree, and once there leave an offering at its base. This offering is said to be the hearts of a mated pair of Shenguins, a vial of tears shed over the light of a Glowberry Candle, and a rod of unbending metal. Symbolizing lifelong commitment to their love, devastation at not being with their love, and an unbreaking devotion to their love. If Dragostia deems their love true and worthy she will bless the lover with their deepest desires.
While in the Realm of the Underworld Prince Algor fought a great many Archfiends in battle, but only one of them managed to take a bite out of the Prince. After being run through with a sword and left to die the Rip Sludge that makes up all Slimes began to work it magic on the Skeletal form. Continue reading “Who’s Who: The Slime Fiend”
