author: Ross A. Isaacs
description: Sorcerers strive to understand the universe through unholy pacts with the lords and demons of chaos.<br /><br />Now their ambition grows.<br /><br />Their rune magic allows them to cast hideous spells directly upon a living being or inanimate object, cursing the unfortunate with the powers of the damned.<br /><br />They speak with the dead, calling forth rotted cadavers to do their bidding and to divulge secrets from beyond the grave.<br /><br />Now these sorcrerers search through the ancient tomes for yet greater power, dicovering new demon breeds and new infernal powers with which to imbue them.<br /><br />Fools! They will be the end of all.
