The Dark Four were defeated by the Great Beasts and banished from the Realm of Mythoss. Powerful magic was used to imprison the Lord of Death, and those same spells sent many of the monstrosities that fought in his army away as well. Known as The Turpiculi, these long-forgotten terrors of the First Age come in a variety of forms, and all are horrible. The heroic warriors fighting for Mythoss today have never seen an enemy like a Turpiculus, and as the barrier between that Realm and the prison where Necronominus and his acolytes have waited begins to weaken, these rotting denizens of death stir and prepare to fight once again.
