- | ====Toil and Trouble==== | + | =====Biography===== |
+ | Diago grew up in a very dark place. His father was a great hero among the uncorrupted tuatha clans beyond the veil. Many of the other clans followed his father into battle against the corrupt Tuatha, the Darkthornes. Their clan lived in the remote wilderness between Regalia and Belathian. | ||

+ | Diago flew into a rage and slew his mother, he then turned his rage on his dead clansman. He was so consumed by his rage that he did mistake Suldes for a foe and struck the young female elf. He snapped from his rage picking up Suldes' | ||

+ | Diago awoke, his eyes yellow and his mouth filled with rows of vampiric fangs, dripping paralytic venom. He grasped Dromi in an iron grip and plunged his mouth filled with daggers into her exposed neck. She lay dying as he began to rip the rest of the crew and the Darkthornes apart. His bloodlust subsided and he was faced with the reality of his actions. He fainted to the ground amidst the corpses of his allies. When he awoke, he could hear the sound of drums and cheers of a crowd. He found himself in the fighting pits of Belathian, Manece say atop a balcony overlooking the pits. | ||
- | ======Personality====== | + | He informed Diago that if he wanted to live, he would have to fight and kill. \\ |

+ | The crowd loved him and he had discovered a new goal in life. With every victory, he would look up at Manece and he would plot. One day slaves brought in from a skirmish in the Kordic lands began a rebellion. Diago was able to make his way to the balcony and knocked Manece into the pits. He jumped down and declared the right of Kromac Onrac. Manece accepted his challenge and the two dueled in the pits, Diago won over Manece and ripped out his heart, eating it. The Darkthornes hailed him as their new leader, and they saw in him someone that would lead them to a new era.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Quest for Power==== | ||
+ | Day and night he was plagued by visions, sent to him by some unseen being. This dark shadow was the same shadow that had raised his mother. At first, he wanted nothing to do with this shadow power. Instead, he wanted to focus on increasing his own power. His sudden ascension to the leadership of the Darkthornes was not without resistance. The Darkthornes had four noble houses, each had long been the ones to rule. The believed they were the ones born to rule and to conquer. He had their children kidnapped and blackmailed the four houses into submission. He then created a new house, named after himself. | ||
+ | |||
+ | He first sought a power that had been whispered to him by the shadow. He left his second in command, Celian in charge and ventured beyond the veil of Theras, into the lands of Ayenee. There he found many individuals with the power to absorb their enemies fully. He found one willing to impart the secrets to him. When he returned he found that the nobles had retrieved their children with the help of Celian. Celian was now a puppet to the houses. They sent their assassins at him, he ate their essence. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now it was clear to the house leaders, but it was too late. Diago was stronger now and he was enraged. When the slaughter was over, he turned his sights on Celian. The halls of the citadel echoed with screams into the night. He set about a plan to destroy the " | ||
+ | |||
+ | Diago pursued the remaining free clans outside Velusia. They were crushed beneath his armies, given a choice, join or die. Many chose to drink the corrupt blood and the Darkthornes swelled with new blood. Diago was not satisfied with the outskirts of Velusia, he wanted more. The voice in Diago' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====A New Era==== | ||
+ | Diago instead pursued his own plans, the dark heart of Cassandoria. Rumors said a dark god was slain and that its remains were kept beneath a temple there. Diago and his forces arrived there and entered the temple. They were halted by the temple guardians, but the Darkthornes cast off their cloaks. The bulky, gray-skinned figures stood well over 6ft tall, Diago was at a staggering 7ft. They were horned like devils, with claw and fang to match. They moved like apparitions, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Diago strode triumphantly down to the lower reaches of the temple. He gazed upon the black beating heart, it pulsated in a pool of black blood. Diago returned with the heart and sealed it away in his vault. He intended to use it to create a pool from which one could drink and become a Darkthorne. It would allow him to create endless Darkthornes and replenish their number. The thorne clans inside Velusia' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Diago launched a campaign against the Blackthornes. Instead of defeating the Blackthornes he drew their attention. They stormed the citadel and destroyed the dark heart at great cost. Zane Blackthorne fell in battle against Diago, but managed to severely injure the Darkthorne leader, with his sword " | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Defeat and Banishment==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Diago spent years recovering from the wound, he cursed Zane wishing he had never met the on they called the black swordsman. His gut burned and turned, he could never make the pain cease. As the years passed the pain ebbed. It was around this time that he discovered Eseer at the behest of the shadow. The shadow wanted Eseer to be slain, Diago, however, threw Eseer to the pits. He saw someone with potential, but no goal. Eseer fought as Diago did in the pits and eventually rose up and escaped. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Rumors abounded that Reese Blackthorne was attempting some sort of ritual to protect all of Velusia from some shadowy unseen threat. Diago saw this as the perfect opportunity for him to kill the king. Diago was attacked by Eseer during the attempt and defeated, by Eseer and Reese. Diago, however, refused to die, so Eseer banished him to the shadow realm. In the shadows, Diago plotted and waited, swearing he would have vengeance.\\ | ||

+ | __//**Magic Fire:**//__ Certain fire produced through magical means can be both deadly and repulsive to Darkthornes with mixed dna from an supernatural race. The magical fire has to be produced at a level that could burn through metal and stone however. It is not of a level that most amateur mages can use. The consistent magical output required to produce such a fire creates a fire that burns so hot is appears white. | ||

+ | ====== Abilities ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | __//**Soul Feast**//__ The ability to feed on the life force of a victim, but much more. This ability allows one to absorb memories and even certain innate abilities. Diago learned this ability during his time in Ayenee and then used it to increase his strength before returning to Velusia. It worked to a lesser degree in Velusia due to the different physics of the realm compared to Ayenee. | ||
