"Daddy, tell me a story. I can't sleep."
"Well, okay, but you've gotta sleep. You have school tomorrow."
"Long ago, in a realm adjacent to ours, there lived a mighty king. This king, known as Antoraak the Great, lived in a huge castle on the coast of the country known as Juntal. One day, Antoraak went to the finest forge in Juntal, manned by the finest smith. He gave the smith a simple request : he wanted a blade formed from paaranite, a strange, glowing mineral only found in their lands. The smith quested for days, until finally, he found a paaranite deposit large enough to create a blade. He toiled for weeks, mining the paaranite ore. One year exactly after Antoraak asked for the blade, it was created. After it burned in the fires of the forge, it arose. After it was soaked in the divine waters of cooling, it became. The blade was given to Antoraak, but what he didn't know is that the paaranite deposit had been taken by the vile hand of shadow. It had been infused with the darkest energies any warlock could dream of. It slowly corrupted and possessed Antoraak, and soon forced him into a state of hiding. When he finally came out, years later, he struck his own son with the blade. He created the shadow tear, a break between dimensions. Dark creatures poured from the tear, besieging the world as they knew it. Soon, it fell to darkness, becoming a desolate wasteland. Antoraak the Dimension Ripper was placed upon the throne as the Lord of Darkness."
"What happened then, Daddy?"
"A brave hero stood up. This hero, Agglacus, was just a lowly peasant from the isles of Ignacla, a place like Hawaii. Agglacus went to the same smith in the same forge that Antoraak's blade was created. The smith, knowing the blade's dark power, created a second one and purified it - creating a sister blade that could defeat the first. Soon, the hero made his way through the forces of darkness, eventually reaching Antoraak himself. He cut down Antoraak in a fair duel, and sacrificed himself to seal the shadow tear."
"Where did the sword go?"
"Both blades, both Antoraak's and Agglacus', were lost in the battle. Their locations are unknown. If either were uncovered, however, the shadow tear could be re-opened, and put that world at stake again."
"Is there anything else?"
"Yes. The elves, the dwarves, the humans - everyone searched for the blades. Many stories came up - that they were sealed in an ancient vault beneath the earth, or that they were taken to heaven and hell to be kept for safekeeping. Either way, in that realm, people still search for the swords, longing power of their own."
"This is their tale."

(ULTIMATE :D ACCEPTED
Shadow Beings are any creatures that came from the shadow tear. They may manifest themselves within a humanlike warrior, or a goblin creature. Anything is a possibility. As long as it's fair. |

Today was a strange day; lots of merchants found their ways into Hyzga's streets. There was something about today...
Ah-ha! It was the ten-year anniversary of Antoraak's downfall. |

| A merchant came to Vrael with replicas of the two swords. "You buy now!" He was obviously not from around here. Travelling merchants were common this time of year. |

| The replica of Agglacus' blade was a near carbon copy. The merchant spoke solidly, with an accent Vrael had not heard before: "I give on discount. One hundud gowuld! You give now!" This price was relatively cheap for such an immaculatly crafted replica. |

Okay, continued from last Appearance: He is a completely black figure, like the shadow of a man. He easily hides in the shadows. Bio: He was once a human adventurer, until he came across a small hole that had a mysterious glow, and he could fit inside, but it was taken by the hand of the shadow. His mind, as well as his appearance, was corrupted. Goal: Hunter, he thinks there should be no ruler of the shadow realm, and has no desire to power. |

He gave the merchant one hundred gold and walked away, putting the replica in his pocket.

| I really like this thread; I'll join sometime later. Question, though; do that characters have to have a pre-approved goal? Can they not just want to have a good time? |
