"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."

QES and the bumbling mages. I get the feeling you go through a lot of adepts in your games. 
Like the treant one, but the name looks silly, I'd cut it in half.
As for valor, my eyes glaze over after that many v's
(and gnarly is a funny word! go for gnarled!)

I do have bumblesome mage flavortexts dont I? And i DO go through quite a few of them In-game.
The V was just for fun. There is another Valor flavortext i submited that has more substanitive value. Verily, my veracity is virtually inviolate.

I think my favorite in the last bajillion posts i sent (since Kael last checked) is my "Inspiration" one. Post #107. And Yeah, your right, Im gonna shorten the Ents name.

During the Age of Dragons the angels fought throughout the land for many reasons. They fought over land and spirits, until Dagda and her companions enforced the Pact, when the Creation was on the verge of unraveling. The Pact established rules for the relations between the angels, including rules about the spirits. When a person dies, elf, dwarf or men, normally the spirit goes back to Creation, reincarnating. However, sometimes, when the spirit is dark enough or enlightened enough, the spirit is dragged to elsewhere. Higher spirits go to the angelic court more similar to his essence.
Some people are too linked to their earthly life, that when they die they cannot let his past life behind, lingering in haunting echoes of memories. The loss of his precious life, the frustration for dreams that will never come to be and other sad feelings darken the heart of the spirit, making it heavier and heavier. The weight of his heart drags the spirit from Creation to Hell. This process can be stopped by Spirit Guides, high spirits at Sirona court, that try to enlighten the falling spirit, to make he return to the Wheel of Spirits. But not every falling soul is fortunate to meet a Spirit Guide before the fall is complete, and other doesnt see the light that is offered to them. When the fall is complete the spirit arrives in the ashen and bleak plains from Hell where nightmarish shades whispers in the spirits ear making he relive his darkest memories over and over. After some time, centauries in some cases, The mind and will of many fallen spirits are broken this way, some of these spirits vanish, other are devoured by the whispering fiends and other animal-shaped Hungry Ghosts, spirits whose reason vanished and who exists only to satisfy their most primal desires. Some spirits the mind-shattering whispers and change, they become Specters.
The Specters is a fallen spirit who recovered clear reason. His appearance and personality is similar to which he had in life, and these will never change, the falling process galvanized his soul in this shape, forever out of the Wheel of Spirits. These specters group themselves in hopeless communities to defend themselves from a highly hostile environment. But these spirits keep the dreams and wishes they had in life, dreams and wishes that whose realization is almost impossible in that hellish place. Dreams and wishes that dont go away, memories of the lost ones, the will to not disappear, everything simply dont go way from the unchanging soul of the Specter.
Then, one day, during the Age of Magic, the Black Sea appeared in the shores of the distant razor glass plain of Naraka. The sky in Hell is starless, but the waveless surface of the Black Sea reflected stars, stars that are not from the Creation. Soon news spreaded that its black waters were capable of making specters lose their memories, dreams and wishes, of making one self disappear. Soon many specters, bored with their grey afterlife pilgrimaged to the Black Sea, washing away their heart. But the dark waters dont wash way everything, a husk stays behind, a husk that is animated by ominous will. These beings are called Wraiths, a creature so unnatural that they are hated even by the fiends. After they are born in shores of the Black Sea they float to a sinister black tower in the middle of the sea, a windowless tower of infinite height, the first trial to build the Tower of Mastery, a place the fiends call the Void Maw.

Awesome submission. Adding it in. I'll clean it up a little to match the FfH cosmonology (this text makes a nice prelude to the kind of stuff we want to include in "Fire") but I love the detail and creativity of this.
Since we already have an entry checked in for the Summon Wraith spell im going to use this entry for the Wraith unit pedia entry.

Yeap, I used Bebematos's entry as the pedia entry for wraiths. It is more fitting for the history of the unit itself (it may be our first real unit history) instead of just covering the spell.

Here it is. Im very aggresive with my editing so I always feel like writers will hate me. Im am chronically unable to summarize my professional writing so I spend a lot of time editing and cutting it down to something reasonable. usually I make it better, sometimes I cut to the point that its incomprehensible.
