Orcs in the Webbe: Dracile - An Original Flintloque Short Story‏


Orcs in the Webbe: The eighteenth day of the Orcs in the Webbe 2015 Advent Calendar is, as many of you know, my birthday. As such Gavin Syme, head writer at Alterntive Armies is kind enough to write a story or scenario for me each year featuring the Dracci, one of my favourite races from their Flintloque skirmish game. This year he has penned a fantastic short story looking at what exactly it takes to create a new rational thinking citizen of the Elf kingdom of Armorica? 

Can anyone become a citizen? Must you be born an Elf? Famous philosopher Jaques Rossau thinks its possible and with the help of his former student Henri Amadee, a creature is brought from the deserts of Aegypt in a cage to Lyonesse. A creature that is the essence of savagery. Will the monster prevail or will it become with help the unique Dracile?
