A take on Legion

"My name is Legion, for we are many"
- Christian Bible - Mark 5:9

Many years ago a dark traveler walked this plane. In its arms, a single magical seed. Plucked from the Pale Tree, altered with magic this world yet to discover. Planted in a cript, where hundreds of heros of the old wars were buried.
As the years passed this traveler never showed again, but the seed it planted has grown, and with it, all the lingering souls of the cript were pulled into it, bound by a powerful spell.

They awoke in pain, the long forgotten pain of a physical body. Now they wander these lands, yet purposeless, waiting, to be called upon.
