History


Dretch

The creature, a wretched dretch, first materialized into the material realm on 23 March 0. This emergence was not a traditional birth but a seepage, a result of the planar instability caused by reactivated gateways and the surge of Wild Magic from Iron Mountain. Like all dretches, it represented the lowest rung of the demonic hierarchy, a piteous foot soldier imbued with inherent cruelty and cowardice.

By 02 July 0, the dretch had likely established a presence in the blighted lands. Drawn to sites of profound decay and corruption, it would have sought out areas near old gateway ruins, such as those in the mountains of Cocker, or festering locations like the Cave of Rot. These places mirrored the corrupted Bukhara Spire Gateways through which countless dretches were hurled during the ancient Shadow War.

This particular dretch, like its kin, found its sole motivation in the terror of more powerful demonic masters and a petty, spiteful desire to inflict misery. It was a lazy and malevolent entity, a living testament to the enduring scars of the Shadow War and the ease with which such creatures could infest a vulnerable world. Its days were spent lurking, a miserable shadow in the corners of existence.

(Note: The provided "event list" was empty, so specific historical events for this creature beyond its initial emergence and early establishment are not available.)

In the current era, the dretch continues its existence, lurking near planar fissures and sites of corruption. Its story remains unwritten beyond its persistent, wretched presence, a constant, low-level threat embodying the lingering influence of the demonic legions. Its end, like its beginning, is likely to be unremarkable, a silent fading into the decay it so covets.
