Er Basically... Kain has an Empire and one day he executes his right hand Vamp Raziel for growing wings (essentially execution by acid whirlpool). Raz is resurrected by the Elder God as a soul devouring Wraith (explicitly to kill vamps and consume their souls to stop em mucking up the wheel of fate and restore Nosgoth)...he goes on a quest of vengeance, killing his former brothers and gains the Wraith Blade when Kain tries to kill him with the Soul Reaver blade (it shatters), learns a little about his former life as a Sarafan good-guy (apparently) and then gets lured back-in-time by Kain (leaving our last brother Turel behind). Nosgothic Realm has a nice in-game pic ilustrated script here
