Emelyn: February 2008 Archives

It's about time to introduce my last two alts, my warlock and my rogue.  I'm doing them together because they're both still lower levels, and their stories are intertwined.

 

Name: Emelyn

Age: Around 115.

 

Name: Kalianne

Age: 19

 

Background:

 

Emelyn was an esteemed and powerful mage of the Kirin Tor, having been taken into their midst at an early age and trained as a magic-user.  She struggled with the rules and practices of the order for a long time, but kept to them as best she could.  In her later years, Emelyn began to feel the slow creep of time catching up to her, and it was terrifying.

For night after night, the aging mage searched for a way to prolong her life, and it became an obsession.  Then one evening, her experiments attracted the attention of a being from the Twisting Nether - one of the leiutenants of the Burning Legion.  He appeared to Eme as a benevolant and beautiful being who offered her youth and eternal life.  Seeing her own mortality on the horizon, Emelyn went against her better judgements and did the bidding of the demon, who gave her increasingly difficult and twisted tasks to perform.

 

Finally, he instructed her to go to a village in a remote part of the land and destroy it, absorbing the souls of the people there, and this would return her youth.  Caught in the heady rush of power and with the promise of being young again, Emelyn did as he wished.  The village was bombarded with a rain of fire, the screams of terror splitting the night.  It was only as she absorbed the last of the life from a woman and felt her own vitality completely restored that Eme realised that the village was her family's home, and the charred remains that lay around her were those of her own children and grandchildren.

Horrified by what she had wrought, Emelyn gave herself over to the demon completely and became a full warlock.  Now she hungers and cares only for power, travelling and searching for more ways to harness the fel energies of the nether.

 

Unknown to the magic-user, a single person survied the purging of the village.  A young child who was discovered amongst the bodies, crying in terror and sorrow.

The child was taken into the care of the nearby Ravenholdt manor, a hidden house that serves as a training ground and base for a group of assassins.  Kalianne grew up with them, learning the craft as soon as she could hold a knife.  She threw herself into the way of life, wishing only to find the warlock who burned her village and killed her family, not knowing that the woman she now hunts is her own great-grandmother.

The OOC Stuff:

 

My warlock is currently level 63, and I'm intending to get her to 70 when I feel like it, to make her my raiding DPS character.  However, I have my other two raiders (Ele and Yol) to concentrate on, so Eme's levelling is fairly slow.  I do love playing a warlock though, and she was one of the earlier characters I made.

 

Kalianne is currently level 48, and likely to remain around there.  She's the character that I sometimes jump on to have a bit of fun.  I do like the rogue, but I prefer the ranged classes for damage dealing.
