WARNING!
This is my head cannon of Rythian's past, so read on if you dare! It can also be used as a base for your story, but give me a head's up if you are!
Rythain was a normal boy, who had two dearly loved parents. He had always been fascinated about magic, and his father was a mage, so he taught Rythian all that he knew. But when the Second Magic War broke out, his family died as normal bystanders who got caught in the cross fire's. Rythian was devastated, and he vowed to get revenge. This is what started him on his decent of insanity.
When he was 18, the war stopped and he was able to go to a school for gifted and talented mages. His life was peaceful for the next 7 years, but then when he was framed for the murder of a very important and influential mage, he had to go into hiding. He fled to the woods, where he was attacked by a Shade, a nasty monster who feed's off magic and very nearly killed him. But he was saved by Lalna, and they became firm friends.
((( Flash Back Thingy )))
This was it, he was going to die.
The Shade was just inches from his face, and he winced at it's breath. But he wasn't sad about dying, in fact, he was quite happy. He was framed for a murder he didn't do, and betrayed by his friends. So he fled, and instantly stumbled into this Shade's territory.
Just as the Shade was about to make the last blow, there was a big bang, and the Shade's body went slack. He pushed it off him, and looked up to see a guy wearing a lab coat and goggles.
"Look's like you need some help there." He said.
((Flash Back End))
But soon Lalna got too ambitious. Their trust began to strain when the scientist wanted more of Rythain's blood to find out more about magic. Rythain trusted him, but was suspicious over his actions. One day, when Rythain accidentally destroyed one of Lalna's experiments, Lalna went into a terrible rage, locking up the poor mage. He then continuously tested on him, even if the he screamed for mercy. But soon the mage fought back, and in the struggle Lalna threw a potion at Rythain's face, burning it and leaving a black scar. But the potion also mixed with Rythains blood, turning him into the Enderborn.
Frustrated and hurt, Rythain fled, not listening to Lalna's pleas to come back. He had betrayed him, all because of science. He managed to hide the scar's and soon came upon another person, called Sjin. This time he was more cautious over him, for he too believed in science. So decided to attack first in his infuriated and blood thirsty state, taking out his anger on him. Sjin held grievous wounds, and was found by Lalna because he was tracking Rythain. Looking at Sjin's wounded body, he decided that the magic had turned Rythain evil, and not the potion. So, he vowed never to study magic again.
Rythain, now alone again, had to fend for himself, letting out his rage against mobs. But by doing this, he just encouraged it more, and almost fell into the pit's of insanity. But he managed to sort himself out, but promised to one day kill Sjin and Lalna, even if it kill's him first. So, to this day, he keeps his anger hidden behind a mask of indifference.
Authors Notes:
Do you agree with my ideas? I think their quite reasonable, and if you don't, I wont judge! If you want me to do a actual story about Rythain's past, let me know in the reviews!
