Ragrax, Stronghold of the Twelve

Ragrax is where the Rathe councilmen call home. They care not for the affairs of mortals, but if their patience is tried, they react swiftly and without remorse. The Ogres (Concept), giants, and goblins of Norrath (Location) can attest to this. Each of the twelve members maintains an identical figure comprised of green, grassy hair and earthen skin with veins of blood and turquoise. They are an extension of the element of earth and the plane itself, so for each member that falls, another will emerge from the earth to replace him. They are emotionless, and well beyond the comprehension of mortal understanding. They show no trace of personality recognizable or comparable to those of the other gods, or of mortal beings. The Rathe Council may consist of twelve entities but they are one conciousness. Following the ancient Ogre army's lead, adventurers have led assaults on the embodiment of earth only to realize that in their victory over the twelve, they summoned the wrath of the Avatar of Earth, who carries the combined might of the entire council and possibly more. The Avatar of Earth is able to limit the combat skills of all attackers and eliminate the use of beneficial spells by all magic users. He also seemingly attacks at random in a flurry of epic proportions. But he must be defeated in order to make it to Zebuxoruk (Character)'s prison, the Plane of Time.
