Personal history

Long past warlord of the Karyoku, a conquering peoples who rampaged across the land. Rich in magic, hoarding secrets of enchantment and spell smithing under the command of the Red Dragon Madarak.

The Crimson Emperor of Brutality

The Bloody Handed

Mountain Slayer

Hoarder of Secrets

Patron of Sorcerers

Warlord.

Education

Mystics, gurus and uncovered scrolls allowed Madarak to learn enough to begin pillaging and gathering rare and dangerous information kept secret by other, weaker factions.

Employment

Madarak demanded tribute in only rare materials and secrets, his guidance and gifts of magic allowing his people to prosper under his rule. He would take only what he needed to further his knowledge, but to hinder him was punishable by public execution by his bare hands.

Accomplishments & Achievements

The Bloody Handed
Ruled through fear and authority by sheer mythical strength and brutality, often seen or depicted killing with his bare hands.

Mountain Slayer
Launched an assault on a mountain side city, the myth says his armies marched and felled it, the truth being spies hid explosive runes and caused a devastating landslide.

Hoarder of Secrets
Believed to have the greatest private library and vault of magical secrets during his age, earning the myth that he was a Red Dragon who hoarded secrets.

Patron of Sorcerers
Due to his exposure to magic and natural bloodline, he sired 2 sorcerers and declared himself a patron of sorcery and sorcerers alike. Some may still claim to be direct descendants.

The Crimson Emperor of Brutality
Coined by his enemies, or perhaps had a rumour spread of such, it is a title he has nonetheless been referred to by and may be considered to have earned.

Failures & Embarrassments

His greed and pride were their ultimate downfall. While he wielded great power, he was still mortal. They marched their forces through a hurricane, a flash flood washing him and a considerable number of his soldiers to their death.

Mental Trauma

Grew with little love as he was forged to inherit and rule what was taught to be rightfully his.

Intellectual Characteristics

Has an insatiable appetite for knowledge about magic, will quietly read and research for as long as it takes.

Morality & Philosophy

The most powerful person has a right to lead, but a good leader should also elevate those below them by the same strength.
