When it was said that a sellsword had rallied the Variags beneath the banner of the High Chief Illgiz the Strong, he swiftly became even more respected than the new Khan, challenging him to a duel to the death over the throne of Khand, which he won, by cleaving Illgiz's helm, and head asunder with a single stroke. He proceeded to lead his horde north, smashing the combined forces of Dale, Esgaroth, Dorwinion, and the King under the Mountain in a well planned, and executed battle. In which they were baited into a trap, surrounded, and massacred to the last man. He proceeded to take wains full of decapitated heads outside their cities, and raise great heaps of them, terrifying the populations into surrendering. Unfortunately, he did not keep his word, and simply pillaged the cities, enslaved their populations, and then razed them to the ground.

You conquered Dale, Esgaroth and Dorwinion? HELL FUCKING NO! You dare to call me overpowered? Argali, keep it civil. I will not be lenient with any form of harrasment. That applies to everybody.

Indomitable, you can have conquered them and sacked their city, but not have conquered them or held their land. This is the Gamemaster's word, and it is law. I simply said I burned the primary settlements, and took slaves. I didn't say I held their land...
