The Great Parch
The Great Parch is a continent located in the Realm of Aqshy. It is the region that the upcoming Soulbound AOS Roleplaying Game will initially be set in.
The continent is also the site of a number of major events in the AOS timeline:
- It was here that Grimnir fell fighting the Godbeast Vulcatrix, and in their mutual destruction scattered Ur-Gold across the Realms. Following this, the first Fyreslayers would discover this divine substance in the Great Parch and would go on to found the Vostarg Lodge, the first and oldest of the Lodges.
- During the opening stages of the Age of Chaos, the various tribes of the Flamescar Plateau began to slowly succumb to the influence of Khorne, including one warrior named Athol Khul, later known as Khorgos Khul. Khorgos would go on to create the infamous Goretide, a Khornate horde so vast that it would devastate and massacre vast swathes of civilization in Aqshy and beyond.
- Sigmar's forces would make their first major push to retake the Realms in the Great Parch, with the Hammers of Sigmar driving out the Goretide and securing footholds for the forces of Order around the various Realmgates on the continent.
- Gotrek Gurnisson would make landfall in the Mortal Realms in the Great Parch, eventually going on to save Hammerhal Aqsha from being destroyed from within by a Tzeentch cult.
