Campaign	Core

Dhuum is the cruel and unjust god who ruled the Underworld as the god of death before Grenth; he was given many titles during his reign. He was eventually overthrown by Grenth, who took the position as the new god of death. However, Grenth did not have the power to slay Dhuum, so the latter was imprisoned within the Hall of Judgment behind enchanted doors and layers of divine magic. Though asleep, Dhuum's dark power increases every time a creature in the Underworld dies, strengthening him so he may eventually free himself.

Players encounter many followers of Dhuum, such as the Terrorweb Dryders, Tortureweb Dryders, Riders of Dhuum, Skeletons of Dhuum and the Emissaries of Dhuum. Despite the dormancy of their master, these entities are active, aiding Abaddon together with the followers of Menzies.

Dhuum himself is fought in the Underworld, inside the Hall of Judgment, after a player has completed all the Underworld quests. If successful, the characters force Dhuum back into holding - at least until the god regains his strength.
