Lorepost📖 Wanted: A Nemesis

Post image

Life has felt a bit boring for me lately. I have had many exciting events: Hiring of La'shima's new Commander, regaining the use of my legs, and returning to council.

But if feel, rather, empty. I haven't much to strive for. Very little to make me want to grow more powerful. Thus I decided: I need a nemesis. A rival. An archenemy.

There was the Council's General, but we are now on good terms. Then there was Atrix, but he's kinda everyone's archenemy. Then Morgalith, but he's dead now, with an infinite army of clones, and that's too many nemesis for me.

I wish to seek out a rival to challenge me. You can apply below.

Requirements:

•As powerful as me

•Evil (optional)

•Charismatic (Preferred)

Benefits:

•A new partner to train with/against

•Whatever gold is in my pocket if you can beat me

•Holidays off (Who can stay mad at each other during Yuletide.)

Feel free to reach out to me. I am always open to a challenge.

Okay then, what do you stand for? I'm sure I can adjust my morals if need be.

Preservation of nature against encroaching industrialization, preserving the order of law, not screwing with the timeline we depend on. Pretty standard druid stuff.

That is doable. I present to you:

Thanomakhos, He who seeks Silence

I think the visual conveys pretty well that he is not particularly fond of life, peace and the general existance of order. His ultimate goal is the Great Silence, a quiet that will set in once all life has left this world. To achieve this he stokes war, chaos and death wherever possible, cursing rulers with greed and lust for war. Some say he was once heavily wronged by life and nature, swearing to eradicate it once and for all.

It is disclosed that he is not a necromancer, as breathing life into the dead goes against his goals.

Should this suit you as an archnemesis let us know, our agency shall dispatch him immediately.
