Bane

The Iron General
Very few times has a god fallen against a mortal, and even less when its a god of conquest and fire. The war god Tuern who burned his enemies and ruled over the vast lands of Acheron was killed by a mortal general who led an army of the greatest soldiers in history. That general went on to claim the title of war god and the name Bane, the Lord of Darkness.

It wasn't long after his rise to the divine that an old god came to challenge the Dark Lord. The One Eyed God of orcs, the powerful Gruumsh and all his forces threw themselves at Bane and his divine army, recklessly fighting eternally to see who shall claim the sole title of the True War God. Some think that it was pride that led Gruumsh to eternal war, being disgusted that a mortal would rise so high. Others believe that greed motivates the orc god, hoping that with Banes power he will finally overcome the rest of the gods.

Those who truly know the way of Gruumsh have no doubt, there is one reason Gruumsh fights, and that is to fight. The strong deserve all they can take, and only one can be the strongest war god. So they will fight eternally, Gruumsh to impossibly strong and powerful to be completely destroyed. Bane to cunning and skilled to be overcome with brutality. The Lord of Darkness is patient, deadly but most of all he remembers what it is to be mortal, that makes him one of the most dangerous gods in all the planes.
