Character Overview
| Quote: |
Adriel Savalli (sah-va-YEE)
Adriel is a wanderer, with most of his past surrounded in mystery. The only thing currently known is that he was once a friend and ally of James.
|
| Quote: |
James Thadeus
James is an expert swordsman, and holds himself in high regard.
More often than not, he can be seen wearing clothes of a nobleman, despite being a fallen. His loyalty lies with Deniel, going to great lengths to ensure that he will reach his goal.
It currently is not known how he came into contact with Adriel. |
| Quote: |
Deniel Yedaiah
Deniel is a naturalist, and has studied animals for most of his life. However, a theory he recently came across piqued his interest in the Astral realm.
For the past decade he has been studying it non stop, in hopes that one day he may be able to fulfill his goal of eliminating what he believes to be the injustices of this world. |
Halloween Conclusion
A week after the hit "game" ASTRAL was released, suspicion started to grow surrounding it's origin and purpose. Many groups began to form, either opposing the game or supporting it.
After several clashes between the many factions, they decided to combine and form two main groups with the supporters of the game being led by Deniel while those who were opposed to it were led by Adriel.
In an attempt to find out the purpose of the game's existence, Adriel set off alone to find and confront Deniel. When he did find him, however, he discovered that Deniel's intent was not to kill off the Usagijan like he first suspected, but something much more sinister...
November 13th, 28,006
In an attempt to find out Deniel's true motives, Adriel heads off in search of his hideout. After speaking with the henchman known as James earlier that week, Adriel was fairly certain he knew where in the Astral realm Deniel might be hiding.
Just as he thought, he was able to find the hideout with no problem. However, the "hideout" was not hidden at all. It was a small building in the woods that somewhat resembled a cottage. The insides were lined with books as well, almost to the ceiling.
Walking through the maze of books, Adriel spots a small room in the back. There was a light emanating from a candle inside the room, like someone had been reading. When Adriel approached it, a man wielding a sword appeared. The man was none other than Deniel himself, and was extremely displeased to discover this uninvited guest in his home.
Not wanting a fight, Adriel simply asked him the reason for why he created the ASTRAL game.
At first, Deniel was hesitant to tell this stranger what his motives were. That was until he recognized who this stranger was...
Deniel attempted to negotiate with Adriel, in an attempt gain his support. However, Adriel refused.
As it turns out, Deniel's plan was very different than what it was first thought to be.
Not only did he intend to kill off the Usagijan, but also to use the opportunity brought on by their absence to access the Astral Stream, since the Stream is guarded by the Usagijan.
However, no one knows for sure what would happen if someone managed to gain access to it. Some speculate that the person would merge and become one with the stream, giving them the power to create and destroy life on a whim. Some say you could even take the life of a so called "immortal".
But most believe in a more grim fate if this were to happen. Since the Stream is where all life flows to and from the realm of the living and dead, tampering with it could cause it to close, thus bringing about the end of all life as we know it.
Deniel hoped to merge with the stream, knowing full well the risks it involved. But he wanted to do it anyway, so that he could finally take out what he believed to be the injustices of this world: Something Adriel was very opposed to, believing that this logic is flawed.
"For one to destroy the unjust they must become unjust themselves."
Deniel was not surprised by Adriel's choice, and yet at the same time he was disappointed.
Deniel now knew he could not let him leave. He leads Adriel outside, and once again raised his weapon, thinking Adriel would do the same.
However, Adriel refused to fight. Deniel saw this as an insult, and attacked anyway.
Adriel managed to avoided most of the attacks, but soon realized that this could not go on for much longer.
He grabs a hold of Deniel's arms and weapon, subduing him.
But before anything else could be done, Deniel's arms begin to react from Adriel's hands, causing smoldering cracks to form. This becomes agonizing as he falls to the floor; Adriel having since released his arms.
Deniel brings himself to his knees, obviously still in pain. He looks to Adriel, enraged, and asks what he did.
Adriel looks on, dazed and just as confused as Deniel.
Deniel manages to stand, and lunges at Adriel, grabbing him by the neck. Adriel snaps back into reality, as Deniel again asks him what he's done.
Adriel looks down at the cracks on his foe's arm; They can be seen glowing, like that of embers from a fire.
"The Curse. It's... spreading?"
Adriel manages to say, obviously bewildered by what has happened.
Deniel's eyes widen, as the reality of what has happened dawns on him.
Even though he had already been afflicted with the Curse, the speed at which it had spread was nothing like anything he had ever encountered.
The Curse is intended to be a slow death, inching it's away throughout the it's host turning them to ash.
Deniel, no longer able to fight, looks to Adriel and says one last thing before disappearing into the darkness...
"I once looked to you for inspiration, but now that I see you for what you really are..."
Adriel returns to the small cottage, and discovers a book laying on the desk.
He picks it up, noticing a few words written on the cover.
"Originem de Leib Dauthaz"
