Thoran

Forum: Realms Of Black Lake - Thoran are creatures that were once large wolves, but were changed when a black mage decided he wanted the fiercest guards he could create out of what creatures were available to him within his local area.

He took their wolf ancestors, imprisoned and tortured them by both magics and physical means, until they became crazed savage creatures that killed nearly all those who came too close to them, women the only exception. Then, he cast a final spell on them, and several women he had captured and imprisoned over the winter.

The savage wolves became as men for a short time and fell apon the women, several of the unfortunate females died during the unnatural breeding session, even as the coldly grinning mage's black eyes watched.

After the last of them had sated themself the mage returned them to their wolf form, and caged them once more, then had the surviving women locked away, and waited.

A few short months later the first screams came from the womens' cells, located deep within the black mages stronghold. It was time for his creations to meet the world.

The mage watched as his man-like wolfmen came into the world, tearing their way out of their mother's body, then turning on her and ripping her to pieces before acknowledging their new master.

They grew to full size in a matter of weeks, averaging 7ft in height, and proving to be incredibly strong. They also served their master with unquestioning obedience.

They seemed to possess within them two over-whelming natural drives...to breed and to kill, a fact which gave the mage much amusement as he watched them savagely enjoy any captured female, human or wolf, with a pack mentality that left most dead.

Eventually the black mage died, but his thoran lived on, and multiplied with the use of what females they could capture.

Thoran are sworn enemies of werewolves, seeing these distantly related creatures as an insult to their superior standing, and will attempt to kill any they come across.
