Years ago, when twelve Lords became in possession of alien artefacts, terror reigned as they quickly became mad with power. Above them all, the rational and ruthless Lord Dracula forced the other Lords to bend the knee to his brutal regime.

When devoting himself to killing all five of the Lords who fled with their artefacts, he had put a stop to all but one: Lord Carmine. Driven to obsession and mad with power, Carmine had spent his time travelling to the farthest corners of the land, building a small following of traitorous priests, resurrected soldiers, and temporarily contracted low demons- dubbed “The Republic of the Dark Reclaimers”. Carmine and his alliance waited patiently for the death of King Dracula- when the brutal ruler was brought to an end by his son, Carmine set out to take his place.

Fuelled by an army of black magic and demons of the most filthy and despicable variety, Carmine is the only match to the former King Dracula in cold bloodedness. But while Dracula was a meticulous, iron-fisted dictator, Lord Carmine was power-hungry, sporadic and utterly insane. He lead his forces through wastelands of ancient battles, societies of exiled black magic practicers, and even tore open the gates to hell itself. Now his following has amassed and multiplied, an alliance cultivated by hatred and vengeance.

The Dark Reclaimers are now an unstoppable force.
