In one world, Minthara Baenre was incited to leave Lolth behind by the ministrations of Orin the Red. In this one, however… well, Menzoberranzan does not instill motherly feeling in her children. What will happen when Lolth's claim on her is vacated and the Celestial Forge steps in?

Kingdom of Wrath is a writing challenge that I hope will kick my ass into getting back into the hang of writing.
The rules of the challenge are simple, 1 word = 1 xp and Taylor levels like a 3.5e D&D character.
I have chosen Barbarian as her starting class.

Heroes rise, heroes fall. Often, their fall is as legendary as their rise. But sometimes, once in a very long time, when one hero falls, another rises in her place. Jordan Shepard is a hero. Lion of Elysium. Butcher of Torfan. A hero to some, a devil in disguise to others. Stained and scarred, but unbroken and unbowed. But Lions can be killed. Butchers can be brought low. It's only a matter of time before Shepard falls.
But sometimes, a hero is more than just a hero. Sometimes...

Ao, after being disturbed by the caterwauling of a mortal, takes time to find out why its not being seen to by the local gods. He soon finds that the mortal isn't in his universe and that the universe has no gods.
Seeing that the universe is unbalanced he decides to take action but, as it's not his universe, he can't directly interfere.
And thus Taylor Hebert walks out of her locker as the Chosen of Ao.

CONCEIT: Withers was set to go down to Faerun. Ao said no, and that he should have had a Chosen. As it so happens, there was one in his Archives who had beef with Karsus. After eighteen hundred years of doing Jergal's (then Myrkul's, then Cyric's, then Kelemvor's) paperwork, he is set loose with minimal instruction. Chaos ensues.
OR: Jergal has a useful almighty idiot. He opens the door to let him out. Many Squids Were Harmed In the Writing of This Crack.

A soul. For so small a thing, it is perhaps the single greatest power of all. The dark goddess Lolth has one firmly in her web. It offers a bargain. The Spider Queen accepts.
After all...
Existence is empty without chaos. Life is boring without enemies.

The woman perseveres but disappears after the job is finished. Months later, a knight escorts him, as he protests the whole way, to the capital city and before the mysterious...

Trying to survive in a world filled with undead, doomsday cultists, demoniacal invasions from three different types of hells, evil dragons, eldritch abominations, etc. Is one thing, the other is to survive knowing that everything is about to become infinitely worse by the fact that all the gods are about to have a smackdown.
And worse of all, I am now a king which means I will have to somehow guide my kingdom through the coming storm, just my luck.

Can you not hear the music woven into and from creation? Come a while little one, and listen to the piping that never was, as your flesh turns pale and cold. After all, did you not pass that black gate in your tomb of steel, placed there oh so lovingly by a sisters cruelty? Come, let madness reign and begin the dance macabre!
