His cloak was swinging in the dark wind that blowed this evening. His glowing eye hidden behind his hood giving off a sense of mystery. His boots clapped against the hard brick floor they walked on. His name was Bane, his mission the destruction of the gods.

They had turned him into this...this monster! They betrayed him as if he was dirt to them. He cared not now, for now they would pay, in the near future he believed the gods would be destroyed and he could recieve the power nessecary to bring his former self back.

True he was a fearsome appearence but here in Balefire that was nothing new. The difference was that people here actually knew who he was. He was Bane, the dark wizard who would bring hell upon anyone who dared cross him. They ran from his path, whispered in the night and told their children [if you could call them children] stories about him to keep them good.

Bane had been in this city for the past few months trying to learn a dark enough power to finally begin his crusade against the gods. He had failed. He was now on his way to the Tavern to strike down a man who had nearly killed Bane indirectly.

While he had been searching for something that was believed would be the keep to killing the gods. There was nothing there, only monsters of the night. Bane had dealt with them accordingly but a few had gotten into his defenses which was something that never happened before, I'm getting slow... time to enter the world again.

He came upon the tavern and kicked it open, the patrons looked to the door with angry faces but quickly turned away hoping their faces had not been seen in disgust. Bane ignored them and turned towards the corner where Darius called his "office." He turned and quickly move towards it, forgetting his usual fear inspiring tactics he just was going in the for the kill.

Something crashed in a corner and Darius was apparently making a run for it. He silently sent the inflict minor wound spell at the his back knee joint. Darius fell into a table and flipped over as the pain made it impossible for him to walk unless he limped. Bane walked over and grabbed the man and picked him up his wand aimed right at Darius's face, "Speak now, why did you attempt to kill me?"

Darius tried to speak but fear overpowered him. Bane fixed that quickly with another cast of the inflict would spell at his stomach, "Now I can go through your whole body, SPEAK!" He roared. Darius finally began to speak, "You-you were a dan-danger to my-my-my operation." He said speaking between the two pains. Bane dropped him and prepared to kill the man. He took a knife from the table and raised it, "Should've known better Darius."
