Corvus, the protagonist of the first game, is forced to flee his hometown of Silverspring after the infected attack him, but not before he is infected himself. After killing the Serpent Rider in Heretic, Corvus returns from his banishment to Silverspring, your home, where he finds that a mysterious plague has swept the land of Parthoris, taking the sanity of those it does not kill. In Heretic II, you're Corvus, an elf-type-man. Perhaps I will be able to find some means to cure this terrible nemesis that has befallen my homeland. My people have fared better than the Sidhe, but even those noble beings have regressed into mindless barbarism. Most are warped and twisted into a blood-crazed rage that drives them to assault nearly any that they encounter. Now, city streets are filled with the noxious green plague vapors that cause insanity and then death to any that are unfortunate enough to inhale it. The plague struck quickly, and it was not until too many were infected that anyone took notice of the creeping death.

I fear that this time there shall be no one to lift the damp veil that has blanketed my beautiful homeland.
