As the first undead to coalesce from soulbleed and gain sentience, Ugrach claimed dominion over his lesser brethren, the ghosts, wisps, and ictheli of the land. After a time, he came upon the secret of creating, bypassing the need to wait for coalescence to occur. Skeletons, zombies, ghouls, vampires, and wights were his creations. Finally, he created his crowning achievement, whom he titled "Vampreny." Vampreny would create for him, giving Ugrach time to grow in power. However, Vampreny disappeared from the Underworld after awhile. | As the first undead to coalesce from soulbleed and gain sentience, Ugrach claimed dominion over his lesser brethren, the ghosts, wisps, and ictheli of the land.

Some time during the Underworld's history, the Gedtet, a race of undead hunters, was exterminated. We know not who or what the Gedtet were, or what exactly became of them. We know only that now, they are gone, and perhaps only Ugrach his underlings know what happened to them. | Some time during the Underworld's history, the [[Gedtet]], a race of undead hunters, was exterminated.

During the [[War of Humanity]], Prince Slith of the Underworld, then at his father Ugrach's side, decided to aid the forces of the [[Triumvirate]], eager to fight against the hated [[Thoth]]. Furious, Ugrach cast Slith and his followers from the plane and made a declaration of neutrality in which he stated that he wished not to butt heads with the gods, least of all Thoth, who is Death Himself. Among those followers was General [[Zsarachnor]], Slith's chief advisor. Later, at the [[Help:Mythology|Battle of Nishnatoba]], Slith quit the battlefield sensing his defeat, opting instead to return to the Underworld to reconcile differences with his father. However, his excursion was short-lived; at the close of the war, [[Ayar]] exiled Slith to the [[Chaos Plane]], where he and Zsarachnor brooded for untold centuries. This is the last bit of action the Underworld saw in quite some time. | During the [[War of Humanity]], Prince Slith of the Underworld, then at his father Ugrach's side, decided to aid the forces of the [[Triumvirate]], eager to fight against the hated [[Thoth]].
