Markisbeest
Lord of Altera
A bloodied man walks towards the gates of Stormhold, severed earthspawn heads tied to his belt.
Grinning, he watches the people screaming and running for their houses.
Children screaming, women crying and watchmen cowering.
As he finds the gate to the city shut, he calls out: "I, the great and magnificent Markus Groothart, Lord of the Temple City of Uliima Gurum, High Priest of Kilrox, Captain in the Jarl's Navy, request entry into the city!"
After a moment of silence, the sound of relief is heard: "Open the gates!" They have not forgotten...
For months he had been away, in the mountains, for his god had sent him on a mission: to murder an order of unruly earthspawn. The Creed as they called themselves was an order of assassin-wizards who took up orphans and trained them in the arts of assassination. It annoyed Kilrox, for they used stealth instead of brutal slaughter to eliminate their enemy!
So after a long time the chasing of cowardly earthspawn finally had ended and he returned to Nilfheim to report back for his duty.
As the people stare at the severely bloodied man with a slightly unnerving smile that is walking around town, he suddenly stops and turns around to face a little girl. She is standing there, looking at the man curiously. As the people slowly back up as he nears, the little girl stands there. "Hello there, lovely young lady, what is your name, if I might ask?" The girl answers: "My mother said never to tell a stranger my name, good sir." The man grins, he reaches for his belt and pulls out an earthspawn head. He holds it in front of the girl with a twisted smile. "Take this, it is a present of mine, to you." As he speaks he uses the blood dripping from the head to draw a sword, facing up on the little girl's head. "Thank you very much, sir!" The girl smiles and wanders off, dragging the head behind her. The bloodied man walks towards the docks, humming a song as the people stare at eachother in shock.
OOC: I am back, and I needed a story to explain me being away. Anyways, my character is back, aiming to kill all life on Altera (with a smile on his face), especially annoying life, like earthspawn, or Nakam, maybe the occasional wood elf. So yay for evil people being back!
