Naomi --> Willow --> Erroneous --> Master--> Offspring
From madness spouts children with the blood of Naomi herself deep within their heritage. Naomi was awakened to the way that this world works, able to tap into and harness the essence of all exalted. To one who follows Arenji, knowing there could be some fate other than servitude of the gods, this is a beacon of hope and so is the entire line of Arenji. Her great-grandchild, despite having never met any other than his father, has awakened himself to Arenji and broken through the illusion of luck that holds this world together. Free choice is no longer yours and we all must fight to break free.





"What have they told you? Have they filled your head with nonsense? Made you believe that these so-called Gods and Goddesses are benevolent beings with your best interest in mind and to be sent to serve directly under them is the highest honor? None of what they've said is true! It's all lies! ALL OF IT! You are only told tese things so that you won't fight when they take you away to inevitably be slaughtered in the name of a beast who doesn't even know your name! The invisible forces controlling everyone's lives isn't from these "deities" you worship like mindless sheep. It's a being far more powerful than you can even begin to imagine. I've seen how the world truly works and I was punished by one of your "caring" deities after trying to tell everyone how the world truly functions and who's really in charge of our lives and fates. I was chased from Plague, departing from there with strange blue coagulations across my body, making it rather painful to move might I add, I fled the safety of the Melohn to Fire. There, I continued to spread the word of the great entity to any who were willing to listen. I thought I was safe there but the Great One had other plans for me rather than allowing me to settle down there. The Flamecaller got word of my crimes against her via her loyal Sprites and Goblins. Emerging from the fiery hearth, she took many metals and bits of armor and using her mighty flames, she forge welded them, melting the metal and melding it to my flesh, creating the monster you see before you now. She then called upon the Stormcatcher and had him do something to me that now makes me thirst for war. I enjoy combat unlike I've ever done before and I suspect that the selfish Gods have cursed me with immortality in the hopes of breaking my spirit and making me loyal to them. They think that outliving my Charge will crush me? Hah! My Charge is no mere organic entity. So who or what is the being of which I speak? Dear guest, I speak of my Charge and the one true deity, Arenji."
