The Lore of Terenos
The meticulously crafted world of Grimguard Tactics is set in Terenos. A century before the game's events, Terenos flourished in a golden age of prosperity and religious harmony. This idyllic era shattered by a cataclysmic event: the rise of an evil force, a pivotal murder, and the descent of the gods into madness. A band of heroes attempted to counter this evil, but betrayal led to their downfall, plunging Terenos into centuries of darkness, distrust, and ambition.
The Cataclysm's legacy persists—hellish creatures stalk the land, but the true threat lies in the pervasive suspicion and hostility among humanity.
Exploring the Continents of Tereno
Terenos comprises five diverse continents:
- Vordlands: A stable, mountainous region reminiscent of Central Europe.
- Siborni: A prosperous maritime civilization echoing medieval Italy.
- Urklund: A frigid, clan-ridden land of fierce people and beasts.
- Hanchura: A vast, ancient continent similar to China.
- Cartha: A sprawling landmass of deserts, jungles, and magic.
Your journey begins in a Holdfast nestled within the Vordlands' mountains, the last bastion of humanity, from which you launch your campaign against the encroaching darkness.
A Glimpse into the Heroes
Each of the 21 hero types boasts a rich backstory. Consider the Mercenary: initially a swordsman for King Viktor, he became disillusioned after a mission involving the slaughter of innocent Woodfae. His subsequent actions, driven by self-interest rather than morality, highlight the complexities of the characters. This depth extends to all heroes, creating a captivating and immersive world.
