KALAN
The Viking Warrior.
The Viking Warrior.
Birth of the wandering Warrior.
Kalan was once a mighty Viking and leader of a tribe known as 'Valsharins'. One day Kalan was out at sea traveling from a war a neighboring tribe plead for help winning, when a terrible storm struck the long boat with the wraith of Oden. When the storm finaly calmed four days had passed and six men had died, but that was only the tip of his missery. The mighty winds had blown the ship two hundred miles off course, placeing Kalan and the four remaining Vikings in unknown lands. Eight years passed and Kaland finally, through hardship and pain made it back to his home land. He traveled swiftly on familar ground and in only a month made it back to his tribe, but it was to late. He was stricken by the sight of a empty village. Not a soul around and it had looked as if it had been that way for several years. He searched high and low, trying to find out what had happened to his once thriving Tribe, only after another year did he find the answer. A young man that was once apart of that very same village told Kalan of a terrible pluage that washed through the people like arrows from Loki. "What of Golden-moon? What of my bride to be? Did she parish as well?" he asked with swollen eye's. The boy did not replie but instead pulled from a box in a cupboard a silver raven pendant,"She gave this to my mother, her most trusted maiden and told her to give this to you when you came." He gentaly placed the charm in Kalans hands, "When my mother passed, she gave it to me and told me to keep it safe untill its rightfull owner came." The boy stood and with respect, left the room so Kalan would not be ashamed of the tears that stained his face. Well after months of greiving, Kalan journeyed back to the emptie village. he gathered his most valued items; A Battle axe made of space metal, a Medicen bag said to contain Odens left eye, a helm worn by thor and the robes stain by the Mortal Loki's blood befor he desended into Goddliness. Kalan set the Village ablaze to free and cleans the spirits trapped there, Then he left never to be seen in the Viking lands again.
In this story, one of many We travel with Kalan as he gathers a small band of odd if not unique band of characters. It would be a long journey for the six chosen by Kalan's trained eye. A theif; brave but witdrawn and selfish, Two mages; siblens weilding polar oppisite abilites, a female warrior from the lands of scortching suns and a ranger who's loyalty would be tested and honor will be judged.
This is the story of "Death To The Void King"
Many years ago in the peacefull Kingdom of Rune a kind hearted King suffered terribly. Though it was not a sickness or poisin that caused this suffering, it would be the end of him if a savior did not come soon. What plauged the king was the health of his kingdom... There had been many if not hundreds of attacks from strange hiddious creatures not native to this realm. The king though fruitlessly, tried every thing to stop these attack. He spent many nights awake and many days stressing and hoping it would stop. As a cause His physical health began to slip, as the prospering kingdom spiraled downward. After three years and seven attepmts at finding the sourse he finaly discovered the cause of the attacks. In the realm known as Void, a sinister wizard unleashed a massive spell inslaving nearly an entire land mass of that world; from there he conquered the rest of Void. But the evil being was consumed with his own greed and power, he found away to enter other realms with out the use of the ancient and sacred "Drift gates" and was now attacking the realm of earth.
The king was delighted with his finds and began to devise a way to end the troubles for both Void realm and Earth realm. He held a tornament in which only the strongest, smartest and purest man would prosper. When this challange came to an end one man stood above the rest. Our dear Kalan, was choosen to take on this task (but not without great rewards, they could keep what they looted from dungeons and quests along there way.Along with a grand reward). Kalan had two month to prepare and two more months to gather a small band of followers willing to journey to the "Drift gates" and pass into the Void.
