Valerian
The Sorcerer's Ascent:
Valerian was born into a society of skilled magicians, where the pursuit of arcane knowledge was esteemed above all else. From a young age, he exhibited an insatiable curiosity for the darker and more esoteric facets of Magic, seeking secrets beyond the boundaries of conventional sorcery.
The Dark Vision:
Driven by an unquenchable thirst for power and immortality, Valerian immersed himself in the study of ancient texts and tomes. As he deciphered cryptic verses and arcane symbols, he became consumed by a dark vision—a vision of creating a new breed of immortal beings that would serve as his dark disciples.
The Founding of the Arcanum Sanguinarius:
With an inner circle of like-minded sorcerers, Valerian founded the Arcanum Sanguinarius, a secretive order dedicated to the mastery of the dark arts. Their sole purpose was to unlock the secrets of the immortality and enact forbidden that would grant them supernatural abilities.
The Forbidden Grimoire:
In his relentless quest for forbidden knowledge, Valerian unearthed an ancient grimoire known as "Lilith's Blessing." This accursed tome contained dark rituals, incantations, and spells, promising not only immortality but power that transcended the mortal realm. Its pages whispered promises of abilities and dominion that transcended human comprehension.
The Crimson Ascension:
Valerian and his acolytes meticulously prepared for the "Crimson Ascension," the dark ritual that would grant them their coveted immortality. The ritual required a celestial alignment, a willing sacrifice, and an intimate knowledge of the grimoire's spells. Elzudel volunteered to be the sacrifice, believing that the power his fellow scholars would gain would make them gods among mortals.
The Birth of Vampires:
As the celestial forces aligned and the ritual reached its climax, Valerian and his followers were bathed in a torrent of crimson energy. In that moment, they were transformed into the first Vampires. Immortality and power beyond imagination were theirs, but so too was the insatiable thirst for blood.
The Vampire Lord:
Valerian emerged from the ritual as the most powerful of the newly created vampires. He assumed the title of "Vampire Lord," a position of authority and dominance within the Arcanum Sanguinarius. His lust for power and control over his fellow vampires became insatiable, and he sought to establish a vampiric empire.
The Legacy and the Shadows:
Over the centuries, Valerian and his vampiric progeny spread their curse throughout the world. The Arcanum Sanguinarius became a dark and feared order, its members hidden in the shadows, their origins shrouded in legend and myth.
