<small>'''After the slaughter of her village Vadath's mother gave birth to him on the side of the road with her dying breaths. Her last breath became Vadaths first. Effectively being born from a corpse Vadath will seemingly forever have one foot in his grave. The slaughter of his mother's village fell on a moonless night and was a ritual killing for the God Nerull. Those that committed the ritual slaughter took their own lives as well, offering their own souls to their god. A passing mercenary company, known as The Band of the Hawk, found the new born. Then a cleric by the name of Sella took pitty on him and adopted him as her own. Sella herself was a cleric of Bahamut that travelled within the company. Vadath then was trained by Captain Ellric, of the Hawks Raider corp. Since then all he knew was battle. He viewed Sella and Ellric as his parents. He began to fight for the company at the age of 7. He has been fighting loyally ever since. Around the age of 16, durning a particular bloody battle against a Red Dragon, The Band of the Hawk was decimated. His pseudo-parents, Sella and Ellric, we’re killed by the Red Dragon. He himself was also believed to be dead. His body was found amongst a pile of burnt corpses. He later awoke and searched the battlefield. While searching he found his parent's bodies. To honor them Vadath buried them together. He took the charred remains of his fathers greatsword the "Sanguine Rose", a once legendary blade now broken and shattered like Ellrics body. He has hopes of surpassing his fathers prestige in battle and to restore the "Sanguine Rose". Vadath has vowed to avenge his parents death by claiming the life of the Red Dragon that killed his parents.'''</small> | <small>'''After the slaughter of her village Vadath's mother gave birth to him on the side of the road with her dying breaths.

'''<small>Tallia would be found a few months after the Roc fell. Vadath had been searching for her but to little effect. Eventually he found her trail and tracked her down. Though this time when they met it wouldn't be as friends. Tallia had retreated to a secluded corner of the world and began to show her true colors. Vadath found her she deep in a mausoleum hunched the magical gem from the knights tomb. She had found somthing she had been looking for, power. Vadath stumbled upon her as she was making some form of pact with an entity inside a gem. When Vadath got her attention believing she was still a friend she spun around and fired a magical bolt of black eldrich energy. Vadath was caught by surprise but was able to dodge the magical assault. Confused and enraged Vadath began to charge at Tallia only to be stopped short. Seemingly out of nowhere Tallia had sprouted skeletal wings and had a horrible arua surrounding her. Her eyes seemingly empty soulless voids as she began to weave spells. The walls around the pair began to crumble and shake as the dead began to claw out from their resting places. Tallia cackled at Vadath as he struggled to survive. Skeletal hands clawed and raked Vadaths flesh as he fought for his life. As exhaustion set in Vadath continued to fight ready do die in that cursed hole in the ground. With a menacing laugh and a burst of magical energy Tallia flung Vadath from the cavern. Her words hung in the night air "Its not your time to die yet Vadath. You still have work do to......" As Vadath sat up the cavern collapsed and he watched as Tallia flew away into the sky.</small>''' | '''<small>Tallia would be found a few months after the Roc fell.

<small>'''It was after the mark was carved into his flesh when Vadath began to experience new abilities. He noticed his sword would turn black when he raged and it seemed to slice through flesh like never before. He began to enioy battle far more after being scarred. He does not know that Nerull is aiming to claim his soul, nor is he aware that his mother's god, Bahamut, is helping to keep him alive. Bahamut hopes he will be able to avenge his mother, Sella, and find peace. Though he does not curse the gods Vadath does not have a particular fondness towards them because to him it seems even his mother | <small>'''It was after the mark was carved into his flesh when Vadath began to experience new abilities.

Because of all the death surrounding his circumstances he has become an unknowing agent of Nerull. He has had many close calls with loosing his own life but so far has been able to persevere. He is not afraid of death itself and has no fear of dying in battle. As a mercenary he takes all kinds of jobs from a bodyguard, jailer, caravan guard, to even a dragon hunter should it be needed. All he cares for is to surpass his father's strength, restore his father's prized greatsword the "Sanguine Rose", and to take revenge on the Red Dragon that took his adoptive parents lives. He will carve his name into the history books with every slash of his trusted greatsword.'''</small> | ||

<small>'''A few days later Vadath caught wind of another job to the north in the dwarven town of Gammelgard, the home of the Order of the Watchful Eye. Vadath and the others that took the job were greated by Falgrim Norest. Falgrim told them that their job was to try to find an entrance to a lost ancient dwarven city as well to investigate any mutated goblins we come across. He also wanted the group to bring him any of the mutated goblins we come across. They set off shortly after their conversation with Falgrim. The group traveled till late in the evening and decided to set up camp for the night. As night fell a thick ominous mist filled the forest. During the watches that night Dancer of the Borreal Valley sensed that a dragon was near by. Though she remained on high alert the dragon did not engage the group. The following morning dragon tracks were discovered confirming Dancers''' '''suspicions.''' '''Vadath and the group eventually encountered some Orcs and goblins arguing. Though no one understood what they were saying beacuse no one in the company spoke goblin. The goblins appeared to be mutated so Vadath came up with a battle plan. The plan was to spark a fight amongst the two groups. Dancer took a snipers position inna tree and fired and arrow in hopes of accomplishing this goal. The plan worked somewhat and the goblins engaged the orcs the adventuring party. The orcs were wiped out by the goblins and the goblins were destroyed by Vadath and his companions. Upon inspecting the corpes of the goblins the group dicovered they were mutated. Thier heads seemed much larger than they should be. The goblins were also clad in armor that apeared to pieces of metal with elvish designs on it. Just north of the battlefield a cave entrance was found. The group entered the cave and discovered a giant ancient dwarven statue and behind it a stone archway that appeared to be blocked by a giant stone. Just in front of the archway were more pieces of the same metal the goblins wore as armor as well was remains of more goblin corpses and pices of insectoid carapces from a creature known as Kruthiks. Vadath inspected the stone in the archway by hitting it a fee times and was going to swing his sword at it until Tordek stopped him. When Tordek melded with the stone he was sucked in unexpectedly. A few moments later he reimerged and told the group that the stone was an earth elemental that was charged with keeping the passageway sealed. Upon returning to Falgrim he told the group the dragon tracks could be from the Green dragon known as Longfang and the mutated goblins served the dragon. Though Falgrim doesn't believe that Longfang is the one mutating the goblins.'''</small> | <small>'''A few days later Vadath caught wind of another job to the north in the dwarven town of Gammelgard, the home of the Order of the Watchful Eye.

The group explored the secret basement of a very influential family and discovered an empty chamber that gave way to another room with several ragged and weakened slaves. Ulka the bugbear recognized one of the slaves from her past. The golbin disclosed that they were all imprisoned by the dragon to work the forges.

Though Vadath doesn't typically drink Jo'krum knew Vadath couldn't turn down a challenge and would eventually break Vadath down the interesting events would ensue. There was an incident Vadath hazily remembers an incident with Jo'kum involving a stuffed basilisk, a unicorn horn, a few barrels of ale, and three female mages. Though what really happened well no one can really say or fully remember. Eventually the party caught up the Green Stag near the summit of a mountain. As the party rested and made camp before the coming battle they were approached by a dragonborn paladin by the name of Sro. Sro approached the party looking for Dancer of the Borreal Valley as well as the rest of those associated with the matter pertaining to the Dryad Whisty. Sro showed the group a wanted poster and Vadath and Dancer were amongst them. Vadath knew he had to talk to Dancer and Rory to sort this out when the time was right. Sro encouraged the group and Vadath questioned what he was doing all the way up here. It was at that moment Sro revealed his true form a giant Adult Silver Wyrm. Sro spoke draconic into the cave where the Green Stag was making a new home telling the dragon that his reckoning has come. The party entered the cave to see a lone mage weaving a spell. Vadath charged the mage hitting her with a javelin trying to break her concentration. Jo and the other joined in in breaking her speel and revealing the Green Stag hiding up on a ledge of the cave using the mages invisibility spell. Insults were thrown at the dragon and it flew down and engaged the group. Vadath, Jo, and Ulka charged the dragon. With a wicked grin the dragon opened its mouth and let's loose a blast of its poison breath. Killing Jo instantly and knocking Vadath and Ulka unconscious. The warlock Stan began firing spells at the dragon as Ferris came to the aid of Ulka and Vadath. Delphi and Stan kept the preasue on the dragon forcing to stay on the move. Ulka made multiple attempts to pin the dragon down. Vadath will never admit it but succumbed to the murderous presence that was the Green Stag. Ulka would fall in battle, Stan would fire magic often and with to great effect, and Delphi and Ferris supported thier efforts. Vadath saw this and pushed through his fear. He climbed the highest pillar he could with a plan of plunging his sword into the dragon below. Before he could do this magic swirled around Stan as he fired bolt after bolt of magic at the dragon. The Dragon exploded into a bright green light knocking out everyone but Delphi and Vadath. The magic of the Green Stag and a mark apeared on everyone in the room. Delphi and Vadath removed the Dragons head in hopes of collecting the reward from the witch Yggwilv. The reward was three uses of the wish spell all that needed to be done was spend three nights at her hit with her.'''</small> | ||
'''<small>As Vadath and Delphi traveled to Yggwilvs hut Vadath would reflect on his past battles and how little help he has truly been. He set his pride aside and confided to Delphi how his strength and battle prowess pales in comparison to his father's and how worthless he has felt in his battles. Delphi and Vadath discussed what they would wish for and they evetually came to an agreement. They would use one wish for thier own goals and use one to revive Ulka. While the pair traveled together Vadath caught word Dancer was on the move back to Seglock and new he had to meet up with her because of the bounty. Delphi promised to make make Vadaths wish on his behalf and the two parted ways. Delphi would go on to make the wish for Vadath though what she had to endure in the witches hut he cannot possibly imagine.

'''<small>Shortly after Vadath parted ways with Delphi he met up with Dancer of the Borreal Valley and several others outside the city of Seglock. Upon entering the city the Satyr Rory was talking to a living conglomerate of mushrooms known as Grandmuush. Rory spotted both Vadath and Dancer of the Borreal Valley and asked Grandmuush if any one of the group had his daughter. Grandmuush sensed that Whisty was with them. Dancer handed the Whisty sapling to Vadath and proceeded to scamper off. Vadath and Rory exchanged a fee words and eventually little Whisty and her staff were given to Grandmuush for safe keeping. Amongst the group was a peculiar man by the name of Nockdus yet Vadath felt a strange draw towards the man. The group ventured into Seglocks library Vadath ran into a friend that saved his life when he fought the Green Stag. Ferris was huddled up holding an elderly woman's hand giving her comfort ,presumably for some pastries, Ferris introduced Vadath to her. Madame Webe told them that a village not far from Seglock was a village under attack from Drakoths. The rest of the group deterred deeper into the library while Vadath and Nockdus waited outside. Nockdus made a passing remark about wanting some snacks so him and Vadath wandered around the outskirts of the library. Sadly no snacks were found even though Vadath wasn't sure what they were looking for at the time. Eventually the rest of the group came out with a strange priest in tow and they all spoke to the towns guard captain who told them where to go. As they approached the village they saw it was on fire and still under attack. One of the group told them that the Drakoths were talking and mentioned somthing about only having a few days. Not wasting much time they set a plan into action and engaged the Drakoths in battle. While the group engaged the Drakoths the priest was supposed to stay behind but he decided to enter the fray himself. The priest turned into a large "whitish" dragon, grabbed one of the Drakoth and flew into the sky. The party could tell they were arguing in Draconic but nothing could be understood. The battle raged below as the priest/dragon let go of it prey and the Drakoth fell to the ground dead. Just before the last Drakoth fell it spoke of "the one who waits will come for you." The group managed to successfully defeat the Drakoth as well as save the remaining villagers. After killing the remaining Drakoths and returning to Seglock the group conversed with the Madame Webe yet again and asked her some questions. Madame Webe ,a lunaren priest, told them the Echamus ,the name of the strange priest, was a name of legends. He is supposedly "the moon child" or also known as The son of the moon dragon Eros. They also also question about "The one who waits" she told them that he is their peoples boogeyman and nothing more than a creature of darkness ment to scare little kids. When asked where this creature dwells the group was told. The tales claim that it lurks in the dark places, preying on those that stray from the blessed light of the moon. But one day it will no longer be satisfied with just that, and will come into the light, setting in motion a series of events that aren't good. All Madame Webe could tell them about The Moon Dragon Eros was that he is in charge of guarding what we would call "The Feywilds" and that Eros and "The One Who Waits" | '''<small>Shortly after Vadath parted ways with Delphi he met up with Dancer of the Borreal Valley and several others outside the city of Seglock.

The battle raged below as the priest/dragon let go of it prey and the Drakoth fell to the ground dead. Just before the last Drakoth fell it spoke of "the one who waits will come for you." The group managed to successfully defeat the Drakoth as well as save the remaining villagers. After killing the remaining Drakoths and returning to Seglock the group conversed with the Madame Webe yet again and asked her some questions. Madame Webe ,a lunaren priest, told them the Echamus ,the name of the strange priest, was a name of legends. He is supposedly "the moon child" or also known as The son of the moon dragon Eros. They also also question about "The one who waits" she told them that he is their peoples boogeyman and nothing more than a creature of darkness ment to scare little kids. When asked where this creature dwells the group was told. The tales claim that it lurks in the dark places, preying on those that stray from the blessed light of the moon. But one day it will no longer be satisfied with just that, and will come into the light, setting in motion a series of events that aren't good. All Madame Webe could tell them about The Moon Dragon Eros was that he is in charge of guarding what we would call "The Feywilds" and that Eros and "The One Who Waits" do not have any corralation to each other.</small>''' | ||

<small>'''Vadath and along with several other adventurers''' '''were attending Seglocks Galla of Protection when the festivities were cut short by disaster. The adventurers broke off into three groups with the group Vadath was in rushing to Seglock colleges West Gate. Upon entering the group found the living quarters of the students and faculty under assault. Above the living quarters a multi headed dragon flew away in the night. The adventurers entered through a cafeteria finding a few students and a professor trying to escape the way they came in. Upon entering Vadath saw Chesire goblins and a Chesire Orc attacking everyone inside. As Vadath charged straight at the Orc leader the life cleric Linden Rue hopped onto his back to lend a hand. As Vadath charged Tristham magically held the Orc in place and Vadath cut him down with ease. The crew mopped up the remaining goblins sadly one student was killed. Professor Galloway was hurt but still alive and told the adventures the Chesire Goblins were searching for and gathering research. The group moved down the hallway to the living quarters. Several orcs and goblins were waiting for them and the group engaged them. As the group fought the Chesire creations a thudding mechanical sound came from the hallway behind them. Omen a tiefling warlock warned the group a hulking metal construct was in its way. As the construct rounded the corner it immediately attacked Patches and incapacitated him. Vadath saw this turned around and rushed the construct. As Vadath assaulted the construct Omen teleported behind it and tried talking to the professor cowering behind it. After awhile the construct fell to Vadath and Omens assault. Vadath climbed over the construct to get to the professor Omen was arguing with and restrained him believed he was working with the construct. Linden Rue helped interrogate the professor with the spell "Zone of Truth". Vadath asked a few questions though the important one was if the professor was going to hand over his research and work with Chesire to save his own skin. The professor chose not to answer because he was being magically forced to tell the truth. Vadath having hunted Horatio Chesire and knowing the havack he has caused took the restrained professor and his research to the Iron Eyrie to discuss what to do with him with his Guild. It seemed to Vadath that the college had secrets and experiments similar to Horatios orcs. Vadath and his guild are discussing weather to return the professor to the college or to hand him and his research over to Falgrim and the Order of the Watchful Eye. With the guilds tennat of Protecting the peoples of Isonhound the Band of the Iron Hawk must decide what to do. The college may have once expelled Horatio Chesire but it seems they have research he desires as well as some experiments frightfully similar.'''</small> | <small>'''Vadath and along with several other adventurers''' '''were attending Seglocks Galla of Protection when the festivities were cut short by disaster.

<small>'''After months of effort by Vadath and many other adventurers Horatio Chesire had finally been located and cornered. A powerful Fey only known as the Currator summoned many adventures to finally bring Horatios evil to an end. Seven members of The Band of Iron Hawk were present for this raid. Horatio had holed himself up in a micro dimension known as The Shadow Forges. This realm was stuck between our material plane and the plane of shadow. These forges were how Horatio constructed his monstrosities. The Currator told us that four forges were active and that we needed to try and shit down three of them before we could confront Horatio. Hearing this three strike teams were formed. Two teams of six and one of five. Vadath along with Zen, Tristram, Linden, and Delphi took the role of the group of five.

Tristram attempted to hypnotize the orcs but only managed to snare one in his spell. Vadath and the group began fighting not only the orcs but the forge itself. It seemed to him like the forge was defending itself. Before long a strange flesh monstrosity materialized from the center of a magical ring on the far end of the forge. Vadath disengaged the orcs and along with Zen began to fight the hideous beast. As they fought on the beast swallowed Zen whole and the forge began to animate the corpses that were pulling up from the portal. Tristram used magic to free Zen from the beast and before it could fall the yet another mound of animated flesh was summoned from the forge. Vadath, Tempest and Zen dealt with the first and engaged the second as they did this the other party members were attack the forge machinery. Two orcs remained as one attempted to wake his friend from Tristrams spell sadly he was successful. The Orc woke up and smashed down a giant red button and from the same part of the forge that summoned the flesh beast came forth a Sentinel like no other. Vadath knew the group was in trouble and left the second flesh beast to Zen. The Sentinel teleported into the middle of the group and began its assault. Vadath and Tempest charged in hoping to draw its attention and were successful. While fighting this metal behemoth Vadath heard Zen getting swallowed again and Tristram yet again came to Zens aid. The Sentinel summoned for lightning blast that arced in between the party striking multiple members at once. As the battles raged Tempest was magically banished from the forge. The group had used most of its resources and still fought on even though the odds were agaisnt them. It was then Tristram deployed a curious strategy he had used before. Tristram summoned what he called his pop corn hut. This was truly a sanctuary. The group ran into this opaque hut for safety. The flesh monster and the Sentinel were not able to penitrate its magic. Linden summoned a swarm of magical bunnies on the machinery and Delphi used her magic to create a cloud of Daggers. This magic destroyed the the forge machinery. The two spell casters then used their abilities to move the magics to hit the remain flesh monster and the Sentinel. The hut held fast as the enemies fell and forge buried the party in over three tons of rubble. The Iron Hawks had stopped the forge and its creations but were now trapped under rubble. The group had no way to escape till they called out to the Currator for aid. With his mysterious power the Currator was able to teleport the adventurers to safety. It wasn't long after that that Arlins group returned from their forge also badly wounded and barely alive. Vadath waited eagerly for his 1st Lieutenant Percy to return with his group. Vadath and Delphi knew the group was in trouble and asked the Currator to send them to the last forge to help. Upon entering into the last forge Vadath and Delphi were greeted with carnage similar to what they had experienced. The party was struggle to survive fighting the forge and a Sentinel of their own. Vadath immediately and without hesitation charged the Sentinel. He attacked it wildly scoring several solid strikes on the colossus. Delphi healed those she could as the rest of the partied rallied what they could and attacked the Sentinel and the forge. Eventually they were successful in shutting down the forge and destroying the Sentinel. The group was teleported back to the Currator where all the adventurers prepped for the coming battle agaisnt Horatio Chesire himself inside the final forge of which he was its master.'''</small> | ||
''' | <small>'''In his adventures in Isonhound Vadath still winds up coming out of his battles by the grace of the gods. Lindworms knocked him flat on his back and the Green Stag almost melted him with its poison breath. If it wasnt for his companions Tordek and Ferris he would have surely died on the battlefield. Vadath currently spends a lot of his time in between jobs working in the town of Gammelgard learning smithing techniques on how to forge weapons with the hopes of being able to reforge his fathers greatsword. Do to Vadath helping deliver a mutated goblin leader to Falgrim Norest, Vadath has been sent to The Iron Brace. This is where Briggs and his men will further help him improve his smithing techniques.'''</small> | ||
