Hello YWS! I decided to write a background for my RP character... So here it is! Its a little rushed i think.. but please review! P.S. I hope Ish and Puzzle like this.
The Beginning
Xalient is a realm of ice and snow, but full of warmth and compassion. They're complete opposites. This realm was ruled by a Queen and her heir, a prince.
The king had long ago died from some unknown disease, after he had come back from an adventure through the wild landscapes of Xalient. There wasn't a day the queen didn't look at her son and see her husband in him. Everthing looked just like him; his ice blue eyes, snow white hair, and determined attitude.
His name was Xalor, and he would forever change the realm of Xalient. The Queen and son were never very far from each-other, because of a special bond that had formed between them. By the time Xalor was ten, he could already design strategies, fight in hand to hand/sword combat, and have the people love him as their ruler.He was aslo one of the wisest people in Xalient...
When Xalor turned sixteen, the queen officially crowned him King. Xalor stepped up to the position without question. He had always wanted to rule as King, and now his wish had become true... But, it would become his downfall...
Three months after he became King, a report came in saying that one of the western villages had been completely destroyed by unknown forces. Xalor was troubled by the fact that a whole village had been destroyed in just a day. There had been no warning of attack, and his army had the best spies and scouts known. He decided to reinforce all the surrounding villages with additional troops, hoping that the extra support would hold off the invaders...
A week later, he got another report. But, it didn't come from a spy or a scout. It came from a villager, except his right arm looked like it had been eaten off. You could see the bite marks on the stub of what remained of the arm.
The man could barely spit out the words before he collapsed and died. The only thing he sputtered before dying was, "Dark Reavers." The words rung in Xalor's mind. Dark Reavers were just a legend...
It's said in the prophecy, that if the Dark Reavers are ever unleashed upon the land, it shall fall unto darkness... Only the Cursed Sword will be able to defeat them, but victory comes at a cost... He would have to find the the Cursed Sword, no matter what to put an end to the invasion.
He then immediately ordered his scholars to find anything and everything related to the Cursed Sword... The scholars looked and looked through the archives, but the only book that they could find, was "Legends of The Soul." It just repeated the legend in a little more detail.
Xalor was exhausted from his constant search for the Cursed Sword. He had collapsed in the archive room, opening his mind to the dream world. He was visited by a dark venomous voice... "You seek the Cursed Sword... It lies below your beloved castle... It will only reveal itself to you when your heart is full of hatred..." Then, the voice faded as he was shook awake. As he awoke, he saw the face of one of his servants.
"My Lord!" she yelled, "we're under attack! The Dark Reavers have breached the castle!" At the sound of this, Xalor jumped up and ran out of the archive room, heading towards his mother's room.
In his gut, he could feel that something was terribly wrong... He arrived at his mother's room, and instantly felt fear course through him.. The door to the room was shattered all over the ground, and blood was splattered all over the walls and furniture inside.
He rushed into the room and found what was left of his mother's body on the bed, surrounded by the creatures of Darkness... He let out a yell, and pulled out his sword from the sheath on his back. He then charged at the nearest creature, slicing it in half, only to watch it reform like nothing had even happened to it.
This made even more fear grip him... He started backing away, until he hit the wall. He knew there ws nothing he could do, but he raised his sword in a futile defensive postition. Then he suddenly remembered the dream...
"You seek the cursed Sword... It lies below your beloved castle... It will only reveal itself to you when your heart is full of hatred.." Hatred... He thought... I have plenty of that now...
His thought was cut short as one of the Reavers lunged at him. He instinctively swung his sword in a wide arc, which sliced through the creature's mid-section. The Dark Reaver fell in two pieces before him, giving him a clear shot to the door. He bolted for his escape before the creature regenerated itself...
As soon as he cleared the doorway, he sprinted towards the castle dungeons, where the voice told him the Cursed Sword was. He approached the entrance to the dungeons, swung the doors open, and ran down the winding stair case. The temperature dropped drastically as he went deeper into the dungeon.
When he finally reached the bottom, he felt a dark power within the darkness... A presence entered his mind, and said, "You seek my powwwweerrr mortal? I have felt the Dark Reavers rise to power, and spread like a disease across the land... You... You have much hatred inside of you..." Xalor fell to his knees from the sheer force of will that the voice commanded. "I can see your hatred grwoing with every breath you take... You could prove very usefull... I shall grant you my power... For Now..."
It would be nice if people could give me more ideas for this.
