Nehekhara Campaign

Lore & Background

Nehekhara was once a land of great civilization, ruled by wise Pharaohs who sought eternal life through the god Nehekhra. However, their obsession with death led them to turn away from the natural cycle, resulting in a curse that left them as mindless undead servants of dark magic. The great necromancer Settra was betrayed by his own kin, leading to the fragmentation of the kingdom and the rise of rival dynasties, each vying for control over the sacred tombs.
