Introduction to the Character
Nasada Aeul Korith. Not much is known about the man before his transformation into the bastion of evil that his legacy is known for. When he first appeared in Kelay nearly twenty years ago, he came as a man broken by many a century of enslavement to the Drow. Nasada stood out amongst the citizen of Lithrydel, being a Vampire with bright crimson skin. Given the events that would take place in later years, it would be concluded that there was more to the Vampire story than first believed. Whatever his origins, the creature hid them from even his closest allies, choosing to claim forgetfulness over the centuries.


Nasada was kind at first. Thankful for the charity shown to him by his early savior Slash, he pledged to take up defending those of a weakened nature as best he could. This hopeful and altruistic nature would be the beginning of his downfall, as it caused him to dare attack the Dark Avatar Solaris in a bid to save Slash from death, and in this action Nasada would become condemned with the loss of his soul.


Emotionless and void, Nasada fell from view for some time until the "Angel" Samandiriel made an appearance to gift upon the world the Thirteen Seals to be protected. The Seal of Darkness, an artifact of great evil and power, was meant to be given to Solaris. However, Nasada coveted the item and it unexpectedly bound itself to his chest. This would, for some time, replace his soul and turn his motivations toward death and destruction. The item granted the crimson skinned "Vampire" dominion over evil, and in its name he devoured souls and began to grow his own armies to add to the power of the Dark immortals that would later be resurrected.


Some time into his rule, Nasada was felled by a worthy adversary, Demonian Lyastri, of the famous Lyastri bloodline. In death he spent what felt like an eternity in the depths of Hell, in which he was tormented, twisted, and transformed by the Dark immortals to reveal his true demonic nature. It is here that he learned of powerful blood magics through the tutelage of Azazil. Eventually, for some strange reason, Nasada was brought back from the death by his adopted sibling, Dante, and his reign of terror began again.


Nasada would eventually raise an army in the form of The Damned to fight for the Dark immortals, which would later be placed in the lead of his late wife Aleriah, while he himself returned to the depths of Hell to search for his long lost soul. He always returned empty handed. With the Seal of Darkness growing stronger and consuming more and more souls to feed its power, Nasada started to go mad. He wanted nothing more than to be released from this life, to find his soul and move on, to stop the voices of those consumed by the Seal from screaming in his head; But the power of the Seal of Darkness was relentless and demanded blood. It was only after Dante had ascended into a higher power that the adopted sibling came to the demon and brought with him the long lost soul to be returned.


With his soul restored, Nasada's purely evil nature began to wane. While he still wanted to rid the world of all mortal life, it was no longer a motivation of hatred and darkness, but of a means of nature correcting a problem. Life was the problem. It was the cause of all the war and strife, the sorrow and pain, and he felt that everything had to go back to nature. To a time before sentience plagued the world. Once more the Damned would be resurrected and Nasada would campaign toward once again extinguishing all life; Even going so far as to think himself able to take his fight to the almighty Sven.


Nasada grew conflicted with time. He was torn between the good nature of his newly returned soul and the influence of the Seal of Darkness. It was a constant battle that twisted his mind. For some time he tried to do better. To make amends to some extent with former adversaries he once called friend. Yet the Seal would always destroy any progress that had been made. It was during a deathly duel with the draconian Rygar, a battle in which the demon was able to kill the man with naught but his mind, that Nasada decided that he needed to isolate himself from this world. Lithrydel had been home. And as long as he existed in this realm, this home would forever be in danger. No longer able to withstand the power of the Seal, Nasada tore the item from his chest and gifted it to the vampire Tenebrae to care for in his absence. Despite this, the lingering power of the artifact was forever part of the demon's essence.


There had to be a battle. A sense of closure. No matter what, he would no longer be able to walk as free as he once had. The world was changing and because of his past misdeeds, and the power of the Seal, it was no secret that the Keepers of Light wanted to see this creature removed from the mortal plane for good. And so, Nasada took an army to the Milous plain and waged a war. A final war. One in which he would allow his death to be showcased as a means of spreading a peace of mind to those that had been wanting this entity stopped for some time. Through arcane trickery, Nasada gave the keepers of light the outcome they desired, while slipping between planes for new worlds to conquer.


Nasada would eventually come across the land of Iris. A vast kingdom in which he hoped to enslave. However, underestimating the power of a local clan known as the Seventh Circle, Nasada was the one to be enslaved to a young human assassin named Sidney, and an all too familiar lycanthrope named Aevo. They would make a partnership of some form, the demon used to assist the Seventh Circle in committing all sorts of heists and attacks on the tyrannical kingdom that ruled. Eventually, as a means of laying low, Nasada brought Sidney and Aevo back to Hollow for a couple of years. Most of his time was often bound to an amulet, hidden away from the citizens that once knew him best. He did find a brief romance with his oldest friend Faythe, but it would be cut short when he was requested to take his master and the mutt back to Iris.


Nearly two decades since his rise to power and Nasada would finally know death once again. After betraying Sidney and Aevo, the Seventh Circle concocted a plan to kill the demon once and for all. Through ritual, Nasada's flesh was stripped and his essence bound to a soulstone to prevent his return to hell. The stone was then tossed into a local volcano where it was thought to be lost forever. This would not be the case, as two years later when the mountain erupted, the stone was found by a young girl named Raevyn.


The rest... is History




I Don't Live In Darkness; Darkness Lives In Me.


Appearance
Human Appearance
Her frame is lissome and frail; Flesh is pale and flawless. Sharp, almond shaped eyes house irises of blue; A blue so pallid that they mock the dead. Thin, sinister lips are now plush and painted black to match her nails - Fingers and toes. Straight, raven shaded locks cascade upon slender shoulders; Although as of late, she has been keeping her hair in a pony tail, with bangs swept off to the left.
She bears a small two inch scar on the left side of her forehead, just peeking out of her hairline. Upon the top of her left breast sits a brand in the shape of a triangle, with a single line expanding from each side. It is known as the Mark of the Heretic. Newly aquired, Raevyn now has a scar on the back of her left hand- The result of a sparring practice gone wrong. On the right side of her neck, a tattoo rests in the shape of simple chain links. These are the Chains of Domination, otherwise known as Gheneroc's Mark.
Demonic Appearance (The past)
Nasada stood imposing at a near seven feet in height; Muscle and mass perfectly cut from stone. His gaze was made of a vibrantly glowing azure light that stood out in contrast to the deep crimson of his flesh. Above brow sat two large ashen horns that acted as a crown for long flowing locks of jet black that fell to his massive shoulders. A sinister grin always showcased the sharp pearly fangs that he once used to drain blood from his victims before the transformation. His chin, set upon a squared jaw, was adorned by a short bristly black goatee.
Upon the demon's back were two large wings of contrasting colors that spanned fifteen feet from tip to tip. The right was shaded in a raven black, while the left was a brilliant ivory white. Feathers that fell held a slight luster of amethyst and burned away into a mist whenever they touched the earth at the creature's feet.
Nasada did not have much in the way of scars. Due to his training with the Dark One Azazil, and his genetic makeup, Nasada's flesh had its own ability to heal and prevent permanent damage in a strange and unique way. However, there were a couple of things that stood out, or were of a permanent fixture. His arms, legs and torso were home to hundreds of archaic symbols; tattoos of a dark and cursed nature. They were script of a former dead language crafted by the dark immortals and shimmered with a faint amethyst much like the feathers of his wings. In the center of his chest was a small crater, the leftover remnants of where the Seal of Darkness sat for so many years.
Attire
Raevyn has made an attempt to dress more fashionably, rather than that same old conservative clothing she had been wearing for so long.
She now sports a dark, coal-colored halterneck underbust corset, sat atop a black, short-sleeve v-neck shirt that just exposes the brand upon her breast. In cold weather, she keeps warm with a stylish, black wool, double breasted trench coat, complete with a fur-trimmed hood, and a lovely little black scarf.
On her legs, she still wears black leather pants, held in place by a slender, coal-colored leather belt. Her feet now carry expensive, extravagant, black leather boots that reach up to the knee, complete with a a fancy folded collar, reminiscent to what a pirate might sport.
To accessorize, Raevyn has found herself some ebon, skull stud earrings for her ears, and a silver ring with an oval-shaped onyx shard for her right ring finger. To carry her belongings, a worn, black leather satchel hangs from her shoulder. She should probably replace it soon.


Personality
Psychological Profile
Raevyn is a bright and cheerful girl for the most part. Always happy to greet a new face and eager to meet new people. She can often be seen as a bit of a loner with her nose buried in a book, but she more than welcomes company when it is present. She is very much an easy person to befriend, and is kind to most that she crosses paths with.


Conservative and sheltered for most of her life, Raevyn is starting to break free from her shell. She is polite and retains much of her upbringing, but has tested the waters in other areas, such as altering her attire and experimenting with more harmless things like white lies and alcohol. In more recent times, Raevyn has developed a bit of a penchant for deceiving the people of Larket with her role as Sister Solarus, but in her mind, they deserve whatever happens to them.


Raevyn can be on the emotional side at times. For the best part of her days, she is usually happy and full of smiles. Always a pleasure to be around. She enjoys says out to explore or shop, especially with her friend Celaeno. However, due to certain circumstances regarding how some members of Lithrydel treat her regarding the creature within, she has many spontaneous outbursts of anger or tears. She does not like being taken advantage of.


Raevyn is also a very intelligent girl. She excels in her studies and is quick to pick up on anything that those willing would teach her. In her spare time, when not pigging out on snacks or exploring the countryside, Raevyn will most likely be found in a local library, reading just about whatever she can get her hands on. She abhors those that use ignorance over critical thought. She also hates those that would use such ignorance to hurt others instead of trying to solve the problem with logical steps.


Most recently, Raevyn has found herself in a bit of a depression. With her closest friend having departed unexpectedly, Raevyn is feeling isolated and alone. She is slipping toward a darkened path. To make matters worse, with so much exposure to the Flesh-Bound Tome, she is suffering extreme side effects that have left her a little on the irritable and paranoid side.

.
Philosophy & Mannerisms
Raevyn's main line of thinking is to treat others as you would like to be treated. To do no harm. To just be nice! She has been rumored to showcase this philosophy by helping the less fortunate when she can.

She believes in manners and politeness, often putting such social norms into practice in all that she does. Because of this, she may be quick to apologize over the silliest of things.

Because she's mostly a bookworm, she may often be found reading or writing as she travels around the world of Lithrydel.

Raevyn has recently found a Religion of sorts. While not an authentic believer, she preaches as an alternate persona Sister Solarus, about the God of Death Vakmatharas. This is mostly her job as Religious Advisor to the King and Queen of Larket, and it is practices as a form of revenge on how cruel the city has been to helpless witches not so long ago.

Sister Solarus: Voice of Vakmatharas


  A d v i s o r  t o  R e l i g i o n  -  L a r k e t   
Looking for answers as to how to help their ailing town from the effects of Vakmatharas' Curse, King Macon and Queen Josleen turn to the followers of the dark God. With the guidance of Bradyn, it is revealed that the only way to save Larket from its current curse is by sating Vakmatharas' need for death by commiting an annual sacrifice. Thanks to her polite demeanor and quick wit, Raevyn was hired on as Larket's Religious Advisor regarding the dark deity. Together with Josleen, Raevyn helped to craft a tale in which will be used to found a new religion based on this annual sacrifice. Raevyn has taken initiative to become sort of evangelist and prostlytize the citizens of Larket to worship Vakmatharas; To put the people at ease, to reassure their doubts and to help them to transition into this new Religion.


  A  P r i e s t e s s'  D i s g u i s e   

Sister Solarus. This name was chosen as a need to hide her identity from the public; The name borrowed right out of the history books- a reference to the Dark Avatar, Solaris. Once branded a witch in Larket, and known to some more prominent figures in the land, Raevyn did not exactly want to be associated as a follower of Vakmatharas, given the connotations toward the evil that many of his followers practice. Even with ulterior motives as to why she has taken up this cause, Raevyn does take the position somewhat seriously, the anonymity a necessary precaution to separate the girl from the sins she must commit. And so, Sister Solarus is born.

Red. Black. Gold. These are the colors branded by Sister Solarus in her travels through Larket. She dons large, flowing, hooded vestments; The base color of which being black, even though the Queen herself had suggested against it. However, the red and gold trim are quite prominent, with the latter hue being the focal point in its design as showcased by the large Y shaped pattern that runs up the middle of the vestments and over the shoulders. Her hands are often covered by black, silk gloves, in which she uses to clutch and walk with that ghastly malachite scythe.

To conceal her facial features, Sister Solarus has two means of protection. One a gold, featureless, feminine mask. It represents innocence, youth, and life. The other, a more ghoulish disguise, is a facepaint in the guise of a skull. It is in honor to, and a depiction of Death itself- The very dominion in which Vakmatharas rules.

If and when her hood is ever lowered, Sister Solarus' hair is always slicked back with some sort of fat-based gel, causing it to appear as if it were constantly wet.



Inherited Artifacts
  • A rune-engraved shortsword on her hip for when things get extremely dire. A gift from her lovely best friend, Celaeno.
  • A ghastly looking, Malevolent Malachite-Hewn Scythe. The thing radiates evil, as it were taken off of the corpse of a fallen wraith. It seems to cast a glow when in darkness, and has masked her signature toward undead things, making it easy to bypass otherwise aggressive creatures.
  • Nasada's Flesh-Bound Tome. This book once belonged to the demon known as Nasada. It's binding is pieced together by the flesh of man, seemingly enchanted to prevent decay. The pages, too wrought from thin, cured strips of flesh, are inked in crimson- The vitae of those once living. The book is written in various languages of the many races found within Lithrydel. The most prominent are those of Avian, Draconian, Vampiric, Elven, and the language of the Dark Immortals, Demonic. While it is taking some time to translate, Raevyn has discovered that the book contains all sorts of spells and curses, blueprints for specific weaponry, ghastly depictions of death, and even journal entries detailing the thoughts of the crimson false deity. Those that interact with the book often become haunted in a sense, a lingering afterthought of the powers eminating from the Seal of Darkness- a terrible and evil artifact once held by the fallen creature. Side effects can be as minor as visions, hallucinations, or whispering deep in the mind; And can be as severe as experiencing full on apparitions of both the familiar and unfamiliar, misplacement of time, disappearances and being stalked by tentacled creatures of Shadow.
  • A Personalized Spellbook can be found within her belongings. It depicts her own thoughts and ideas, personalized spells, and maps of the surrounding regions. This was a gift from a fellow student at the Bardic College in Schezerade.
  • A peculiar creature known as Xersom bestowed upon the woman a strange Accursed Blade. The dagger houses a blade of shadow that seems to eat the light around it. Placing the tip against a wooden table caused the immediate area around the weapon to rot. This item is kept hidden; Wrapped in a thick piece of animal hide.
  • A Demon-blood stained wand was gifted by the Mountain Dragon, Gheneroc.

Biography
Events Leading to Nasada's newest return to Hollow as a human.


The Demon's Downfall


It wasn't long after Nasada returned to Iris with Sidney and Aevo that his initial demise would come about. He had grown so tired of servitude. It just wasn't right. HE was the one that took slaves. HE was the one with power. Yet HE was bested by a band of ...humans? A furry mutt? Something had to be done to rectify this situation.

It was during a heist that the demon made his move. It had to seem accidental. An honest mistake. Sidney and Aevo were making a dash through the courtyard when they called upon Nasada to open a portal as an escape route. And open a portal he did; right back into the castle. They were surrounded with no way out. If it hadn't been for Aevo's lycanthropic shift, they would probably have been dead men. As much as the demon proclaimed it wasn't his doing, that something had gone wrong; They knew. They weren't that daft.


It was decided that Nasada could no longer be trusted. They would have to do something about this matter. And thus, they devised a plan.

Nasada was summoned from the amulet in which he was bound; Informed by the duo that he was free and that their contract was officially over. It did not take very long for the demon to react. Rage is always so predictable. Blackened flames circled his flesh, a shadowy wave cast upon the pair. What he did not see, however, was the gathering of trained clergymen waiting in the back of the large, holy chamber. When the wave hit an invisible wall, the demon's gaze became surprised, a glimmer hinting at a level of fear that had not been shown in a very long time. Another attempt- Stifled by a holy barrier.

Aevo grinned maniacally. 'It was time ol' Red got his'. The sect of holy men began to chant simultaneously. The crimson flesh upon the beast began to ripple and quiver; Stability beginning to falter. From the rear a Cleric emerged, a large amethyst soulstone grasped tightly between his palms. His words, while in unison, grew above the rest; Angry, forceful, and determined.

Nasada soon began to smolder, and then smolder turned to flame. Holy fire. His flesh began to drip and melt, a vociferous roar sent echoing throughout the chamber in protest. As the cleric drew closer, his chanting grew much, much louder. The soulstone in his hands began to pulse, an energy of aether now being pulled from Nasada's open orifices as he burned in agony. More of the demon's flesh bubbled and melted, evaporating into the air before it ever hit the ground. This was it. This was his time to die.

His soul was ripped from flesh, the perfect form clawing at the air with a look of panic upon its face as it tried to break free of the stone's grasp. It was no use, he was quickly trapped. Yet, it was not completely over. Although Nasada's mortal body was no longer in the picture, his soul had to be handled carefully. They did not wish to see it set free, as this would mean that the demon could return to hell and once more be reborn. So, they had to place it somewhere that it would not be disturbed.

High atop of a mountain, Sidney, Aevo and the rest of the Seventh Circle gathered. It was decided that the soulstone was far too dangerous to be guarded in any sort of chamber or vault, and so it would be submerged into the molten magma deep inside the crater of the mountain. They were assured by the clergymen that this was the only way the soulstone would be safe from any that would use it for nefarious purposes. Sidney held the soulstone over the mouth of the great mountain, his fingers letting it slip into the chasm as Aevo gave an approving nod. They watched it alight and slowly sink into the magma below, a deafening silence cast upon all gathered. Once it had been fully enveloped, Sidney and Aevo turned their backs, never to speak about the ordeal again. It was finally over.

For now.




Death of the Innocent


Two and a half years later.

All was tranquil in the lands. The Seventh Circle had long since moved on in their ventures, no longer to worry about the demon's return. They were quite certain that Nasada was sealed away for at least the rest of their lives. However, one small detail in their planning seemed to have been overlooked- What if the mountain were to rupture?

And upon this day, it did rupture.

It was a relaxed summer's day, not a cloud in sight. The birds chirped happily as they basked in the rays of the sun's loving light. It was a warm day, perhaps even the warmest in weeks. It began with a small tremor. The birds happy little songs suddenly ceased. Soon the mountain began to rumble and quake; And while it wasn't earth shattering, it was just enough to cause the local wildlife to panic and scatter about. As if it had something caught in it's throat, the mountain began to choke and sputter, sending up plumes of ashen smoke toward the heavens above. Another grumble. A cough. Finally, with a thundering crack, it let loose a fiery ball of molten phlegm toward the eastern side. This seemed to settle the beast. The gargantuan mound of earth fell silent, and soon the day returned its calm and peaceful demeanor.

Raevyn was a young girl around the age of twenty. She had straight black hair, piercing emerald eyes and a healthy tan decorating her soft skin. She was a bubbly girl, always happy and cheerful, a set in stone positive outlook on life. Her manner of dress was always one of color. Bright, electric, sure to stand out in a crowd; Her favorites being mostly various hues of green and yellow. Her mornings usually were spent training under a tutor in the arts of magic, her afternoons busy with chores and study. Once a week she would be tasked with venturing to the nearby city for goods in which to trade or help the town flourish.

She was on her way home from the city, a day's walk at least, having purchased a fair amount of supplies that were requested by a few of the local townsfolk. She had been whistling a chipper tune when sharp glimmer from the woods caught her eye. Intrigued, the young woman jaunted into the forest to where about the shiny object lay. There it sat, not more than thirty yards into the wood, a strange stone nesteled inside a miniature impact crater. Surrounding were few minor wild fires scattered about due to the recent volcanic activity, contained only thanks to the moist, damp environment. At first she hesitated to venture near, but again it seemed to shimmer and shine, seemingly with its own source of light. A quick tap upon its surface told the girl it was cool enough to lift, and so she did. It was no bigger than a human fist, a strange amethyst color, its surface smooth like glass. Whenever it glimmered she could see deep within some sort of blue haze. Still the fairly novice magii, she did not detect anything sinister with the stone, and carried it to the roadside. It was so mesmerizing. So beautiful. She wondered if she could perhaps gain some gold for its sale!

For a few hours she carried her newfound possession, hardly unable to take her eyes off of it, when she came upon a horse and carriage that had been stopped along the side of the road. She bid the driver a good afternoon, a smile afforded to the passengers, all of whom she could not quite make out. Before she fully got past the carriage, the door opened and a balding, dumpy man poked his head out and asked her to wait a moment. The man introduced himself as a traveling merchant, and it seemed that the stone had caught his eye. He tried to play the young woman, offering her mere pennies for the object. Of course, she declined. He tried to reason with her that the stone was not more than simple crystal and he would offer the highest price of ten gold for it, a deal she would not get elsewhere, he said. Once more she politely declined, deciding then to just keep it, if its value was so minimal. She just found it so beautiful! The merchant smiled and bid the woman a fair venture home, soon to be on his way with the group of passengers he kept company with.

The bright summer day was beginning to fade into dusk. Her venture was nearly over, maybe only an hour or two longer and she would be home, eating a hot meal. Springing out from the woods to her right were two men both wearing bandanas over the lower half of their faces. One was definitely older, maybe by at least ten years. Both men wore attire that seemed a little too expensive for ordinary thieves. Immediately the elder male demanded that she hand over the stone she had slipped into her satchel. How did they even know? Not giving her a chance to deny their request, the two men grappled the woman and dragged into the woods so as to not be seen by any travellers happening through. As one of the bandits reached into her bag, she screamed loudly; The noise only to then be muffled by the hand of the other. She clamped down with her teeth upon one of his fingers, her hands wrapping around the soulstone just as the younger male had freed it from the satchel.

Once again, screams of protest rang out into the wooded surroundings, but little good it would do. The oldest of the thieves tugged her backward by the shoulders, the other snatching the soulstone from her feeble grip. Angry, scared, not knowing how to best address the situation, Raevyn let her emotions guide her actions. The left hand lifted slowly, orange flame sparking upon her palm. Yet, before any sort of official spell could be cast, a powerful blow struck the woman's skull. And then another. The world began to spin, blood staining her vision. The younger bandit once more lifted the soulstone and brought it down upon her head with such force that it shattered upon impact! A brilliant aether haze exploded, stunning both of the dastardly men, a whirlwind of tormented screams sounding out. It was over and gone in an instant. When the two men opened their eyes, they could see the woman now lying prone upon the dusty pathway, the wound upon her head deep and fatal. She was bleeding at an alarming rate. Fearing what might happen should they be caught, the pair darted off into the forest, leaving the woman to die alone.





A Voyage Through the Abyss


Something strange happened during her almost fatal slumber. Raevyn experienced the most terrible of nightmares, things that would drive any normal person to the brink of insanity. She would find herself in a large layered pit with no sort of sky to be found. From her vantage point she could see far down into the pit, letting loose a gasp as she took in the gruesome and disturbing sights that had been waiting for her. Men, women and children being disemboweled while they shrieked in agony upon one layer. Hapless souls forced to wade in boiling pitch upon another. She witnessed a group of children eating their own mother while she both cried and laughed hysterically. Clamping her eyes shut, Raevyn began to tell herself that none of it was real. It couldn't be... could it? Although she mostly lead an altruistic life, her pathway to the afterlife was one that seemed to be plagued by torment and suffering. What had she done that was so terrible as to bestow upon her these visions of a hellish nature?

When her lids lifted, she was suddenly upon some sort of barely lit bridge, echoes of wailing seeming to reach up a vast pit of darkness all around. Every step forward caused her heart to pound harder in her chest, a deep sense of dread clawing at the woman's mind as she strived to reach the other side. Without warning the bridge gave away, her screams muffled as she plummeted down into the seething abyss. Almost as if it were a dream, in the blink of an eye, Raevyn found herself standing waist deep within a blackened pool. It was icy cold. Thick like molasses. Its scent was putrid, more on the side of rotten- She retched. All around was darkness, so deep that she may as well have been blind. Whispers and childish laughter faintly began to play with her fractured mind, frantic swings of her head trying to pinpoint where it was all coming from. At times she could feel the cool sensations of breathing upon the back of her neck, but nothing seemed to be there when she finally reached around. Once again to catch her by surprise, numerous limbs reached up from the thicky murky pool in which she waded. They latched on and forcefully tugged, her balance thrown off; And backward she would fall, helpless and unable to scream. The blackened ooze began to slowly envelop her face as she sunk below the surface. Just as Raevyn was about to cry out for help, her mouth filled with the disgusting liquid and she began to drown.

Long lashes fluttered open. The once emerald hue was now replaced with the most dead pale shade of blue. Large round pupils pinpointed, the light above an instant system shock to the visionary sense. A deep sputtering gasp filled the fallen woman's lungs, her throat swallowing hard before she began to cough and sputter; The time she spent without breath unknown. The once sun kissed flesh was pale and full of goosebumps- a reaction to the cool rain fell from the dull gray sky above. Slowly she sat up, the left of her hands clutching the side of her head where she had been struck. Most of the blood had washed away with the weather, and surprisingly the wound seemed to have not been as bad as she thought. In fact, it felt closed, perhaps even... scarred? That simply should not be possible, she thought. Wanting nothing more than to warm herself and be in the comfort of family, she clambered to her feet and began the long journey home.





The Path of Exile


Three days. That's how long she had been away, they said. Three days. Had she really dreamt so long? And the scar. When she was able to view the damage in the mirror, she almost cried. It started an inch above the brow and extended well into the hairline. Given the size, the wound would have needed immediate care! The amount of blood loss should have been substantial. How was she even alive? Maybe it was fate. Maybe it was something... else. Even more abnormal was the fact that both her irises and skin tone remained quite pale, never seeming to regain their once vibrant color. She could have sworn she were undead, had it not been for the fact that her heart still beat steadily.

As days passed, Raevyn's personality seemed to shift as well. She did not seem to be her chipper, exuberant self. She became very withdrawn. Quiet. A social outcast. Her once beautiful array of robes and dress were discarded in favor of the most uninspired shades of charcoal and pitch. Even her passion for learning new spells had begun to decay- Well, new spells that she felt were mundane and boring. It took Raevyn about a week, but finally she built up the courage to ask her mentor about a school of magic most forbidden... Necromancy.

As one might imagine, it did not go over well. He refused, politely making the attempt to inform the young magii in training that such dark magicks were prohibited, and most importantly, dangerous. Still she pressed him. He refused further, explaining that she were too young to even comprehend the consequences, that she would become lost. Corrupted. Yet still, she persisted. When he gave his final word on the matter, something inside the young girl snapped. A bolt of angry flame was cast at the more experienced magii, only to be reflected into the floor. Again she made attempt to attack; bested each time by more experienced, defensive tactics. Defeated, she was soon expelled from her schooling.

Over the next few weeks Raevyn's demeanor furthered into obscurity. She would hardly speak to anyone; And those that she did happen to speak to, would receive harsh and dreary tones. She began to have regular nightmares, waking up every night in a cold dead sweat. Her eating habits diminished, and slowly she faded away from her once large group of friends. Instead of hanging about the town square, the disturbed woman would now be found loitering in the graveyard. This was noticed most by a strange balding man dressed in black. After some few weeks of watching, the man in black would finally approach, making her an offer she would not refuse- Lessons in necromancy.

It started simple enough. Minor potions and curses. She was picking up at an alarming pace. Where it may take the average student weeks of practice, it would take her mere days; Sometimes hours, depending on the complexity of the spell. When it came time for her to first raise a corpse she nearly lost her mind with giddiness. She really wanted to see a dead body up close.. and then to have the chance to control it! However, it would take practice, and to practice they would be using small animal carcasses. How disappointing. On the other side of the coin, bringing the dead back to life no matter how big or small, was still an adventure worth having.

Maybe she concentrated too hard. Maybe she just wasn't focused. Whatever it was, the first few attempts did not go as planned. At least twice the dead critters burst into flame. Eventually she would hit success with one of the rat carcasses springing back from its eternal slumber- Although a little sluggish and without any sort of mind of its own. And then, as with the rest, it burst into flame. This sort of trial and error would go on for weeks, the pair meeting in secrecy within one of the mausoleums located in the fairly large graveyard on the outskirts of town. To avoid being found out, they always dressed in heavy hooded robes, and referred to each other by nickname. He was to be known as Archus, and she donned the moniker Nasada; A strange name that she could remember being whispered deep in her nightmares. As hard as they tried to remain in the shadows, someone would eventually shine a nosy light of exposure upon their deeds.

It was not terribly long ago, in the earliest settings of fall, that their reveal would be well known amongst the local townsfolk. One afternoon as Archus and Nasada were practicing the dark arts, two young boys stumbled upon their little secret meeting place. They first watched with wonder, hoping to see some sort of interesting and amusing magical trickery they had become so accustomed to when they annual faire rolled through their neck of the woods. However, when Nasada was able to resurrect a very mangled rabbit, the two boys began to flee, leaving master and student unaware that they had been discovered. The boys told their parents, and like wildfire, the rumours spread throughout the small community. An emergency town meeting was called later that evening. It was during that meeting that Nasada and Archus' fates had been sealed.

For three days Nasada waited in the cemetery for Archus to show, but, he never came. She was angry. Perhaps downright furious. She was sad. Since the day that she nearly died, she felt that he was the only person to understand what she was going through. How could he abandon her? For the remainder of the evening after the horizon finally swallowed the sun, she cried hard into her pillow and deep into her sleep.

The next morning, the young woman was awakened abruptly, pulled from the warmth of her covers by a pair of burly men. Slipping a burlap sack over head, they began to lead her to an unknown destination. She thrashed and screamed, demanding an explanation as to why she was being so forcefully dragged from her home. The journey was not one of a great distance. Suddenly Nasada was forced upon her knees, the sack which obscured her vision soon removed. When her eyes adjusted to the light, she noted that she was in the middle of the town square with every single member of the community gathered as far as she could see. Not far from her, she could see Archus, gagged and bound to a large wooden stake. His face was swollen, his bare chest marred and cut up- obvious signs that he had been tortured. A few members of the town council stood gathered around the nearly unconscious men, each holding a blazing torch. She screamed as they lit the pyre that surrounded Archus, a forceful expulsion of vomit to surface as she watched his skin bubble and ooze.

A scroll was held by one of the council members, soon to be unrolled and read from as Nasada's former mentor burned to death. She barely heard the words spoken, a seething hatred beginning to form for those that she once called friend and family. Even her own mother and father would not even grace her with their gaze, instead to hold one another an weep with sorrow. Seeing as Nasada was still quite young, they did not choose to usher upon her the same fate as Archus. Instead, as an act of mercy, she was to be marked and cast out of the town. A large masked man approached from her left, holding a cherry red branding iron. From behind, another of the townsfolk pulled down the front of her blouse just enough to expose the top of her breasts. The canvas in which to place the iron. Hissing and sizzling were downed out by Nasada's own screams, the pain was much more than she could take. A triangle with a single line expanding from each side was the brand that had been left behind. The Mark of the Heretic they called it. When the rest of the scroll had been read to the young woman, she was soon exiled from the town with nothing more than the clothes upon her back.

Nasada wandered the roads for weeks, surviving only on scraps that passersby would offer or wild berries that she would happen upon. It was upon one evening, a very terrible storm caused the wayward woman to seek shelter; Ice cold rain and hail falling so hard that she might not have survived without some sort of protection. Deep into the forest she ran, coming upon a large cave. Regardless if some unfriendly beast made this place home, she darted inside, just far enough to escape the weather. Tired, she lay down and curled into the fetal position, taking an opportunity to sleep until the storm passed. Some time into the night she could hear her name being whispered, her tired lids snapping open; Startled and uneasy. Again the whispering echoed out, seeming to be coming from deep into the cavern. Every ideal of caution was soon discarded as the woman barely rose to her feet, stumbling into the enveloping black. it was not a very long journey, perhaps half an hour's walk, when she finally saw some sort of light in the distance. Her slow steps became hurried and frantic, several times tripping over her own feet as she sought to reach the source.

A warm blast of air hit the woman's face when she finally reached the end of her trek, the origin of the light seeming to be the pale moon light above. Nasada found herself in a new forest of twisted trees. Trees that seemed to be expressing some sort of... agony? Large shrouds of webbing encased many of these strange trees, signifying that perhaps some sort of giant spider's lair might be near. Just north of the cavern, just above the treeline, she could see what looked to be a tower of sorts. Terrified of sticking around to be the snack of some ghoulish beast, Nasada dashed off through the wooded area to what she hoped would be sanctuary. The tower was unlit, and looked quite abandoned. The large wooden door made a thunderous boom as she pushed it open in a frantic manner, another loud boom echoing out once it was closed. Definitely abandoned, she noted as her eyes adjusted to the darkness; Thick layers of dust and cobweb decorated empty crates of rotted wood and leftover furniture. She had no idea where exactly she was, but for now, this would be her home.
