The Forbidden Territory has been inhabited since ancient times by humanoids who are called "Dark Ones" in the Empire.279Please respect copyright.PENANAU9drasLus6
The whole known part of the Forbidden Territory is covered with gray desert. The inhabitants, mainly feed on worms, and the only crop that grows here is Ashwheat.279Please respect copyright.PENANAsz18RLwuJf
Ashwheat has a low nutritional value, Dark Ones make of it predominantly gray tasteless porridge. The weak and fragile constitution of most of the Dark Ones is caused by this.279Please respect copyright.PENANAsWMYP3KxBL
Because of their physical condition, they cannot wear heavy armour.279Please respect copyright.PENANAwR47Ouk5TU
Thus, they have a special two-layer armour, a firmer and thicker layer on the surface, void, and another thin layer below the air pocket.279Please respect copyright.PENANA670E1VLpoW
279Please respect copyright.PENANAepqhoFMM2M
Their weapons and armour are made of black steel. Highly resistant, thanks to high carbon content.279Please respect copyright.PENANAQuKAUJKpC1
279Please respect copyright.PENANAde09s3ZMbC
Traveling around here is ensured by special beacons placed on the roads.279Please respect copyright.PENANAl4dssZaQOA

The current Dark Ones are closely tied to the use of dark magic and demons.279Please respect copyright.PENANAR5nBKVw0IV
From the calling of the Mor'lak, demons form the last line of the dark legions.279Please respect copyright.PENANAm2wGpQAEtw
The core of their armies are the Dark One's themselves.279Please respect copyright.PENANAEKTwgrce4K
The Dark One's mages still serve as a defence for important parts of the army, such as siege equipment and generals.279Please respect copyright.PENANAXRtMTJ721z
Another part are "ogres", massive creatures carrying a two-handed hammers. The birth of such a creature in their conditions is a mystery, dark magic probably has to do something with it. 279Please respect copyright.PENANAbwt4xi4yQY
