Long ago the
Dragon Queen Tiamat & Arch Duke of Hell Titivilus, fought in this region.
They annihilated much of the countryside in their battle, killing hundreds of
folks. No one knew why the devil and Tiamat battled but it could have something
to do with the Blood War. No one could stop them so an adventurer with a knife
that could cut the very fabric of reality suggested that he use it to trap both
beings “somewhere else”. To get rid of the beings, a portal was opened in their
path of destruction.
The adventurer did not know how to close the
portals once made and therefore used the knife sparingly. Unfortunately he was
killed after making the portal, incinerated by lightning and flame. It took a
Cabal of Mages to close the portal, trapping the beings in another plane. More than half the mages died in the process
of closing the portal. No one knows
which plane they were trapped in and the mages took the Knife, hiding it so no
one could open a portal and free the dread creatures.
The Subtle Knife
allows you to cut reality and open stable, permanent portals. The portals go just
about anywhere, most are planar portals. How to close a portal is currently
unknown. The Knife has been not seen in
many decades.
