in the small tiefling village of laetetur in ténebris (or just ténebris (ten:bris)) in the uncharted and unknown forest of valhurst. I was nothing special, i seemed to get along with most if not all of the village but that was how the overall spirit of the place was. But when I was around 22 people started to go missing once every no-moon of every year (the event was called nչ) and started to make the people scared and with no one to blame or suspect, they start looking at each other.
I was already annoyed with the way the villages handling the problem, my friend natore went missing on the 5th nչ. in a almost hidden rage I went around asking whoever I could about natores actions the night before. But after getting rough idea, I went to natores mother to try and comfort her and see how she was coping. But something changed about how me that night not that I knew it then although i see it now. seeing his mother sitting alone by a fire, not crying, not grieving, just sitting in front of the fire staring into its flames. I turned and walked out without saying a word. I woke up near midnight with a whisper in my ear, i was confused as the voice sounded like natore, thinking about this the words started to join in my head "everyone reacts to fear differently" having enough i ran into the outskirts of the forest. running and running until the village lights faded, i rested my arm against a tree and burrowed my head into it while my breath was catching up to me. with a roar I punched the tree with my little power. I turn quickly as a small creature seemed to be scrambling through the trees above, i then feel a pain in my neck and turn again to see almost a shadow behind me. i swing my hand around and grab the silhouette by the throat, in my rage i threw it into the tree and started hitting it repeatedly as it started to take light, it just seemed like a normal human but really pale, a vampire I thought, as my face started to widen in disbelief looking at my bite. I punched him harder and harder as my eyes dampened and the evil in front of me smirked and fell into the ground as shadows slipped past my feet. walking back my vision was flickering and my hands also. i started to speed up going faster and faster until I could barley stop, it was strangle because i knew what the power would do to me but I couldn't stop myself from smirking a little.
thinking of what to do now I reached the village, I crept into the village and packet my belongings and some food. I was interrupted by my girlfriend who tried to persuade me to stay and was telling me how I had gone missing for days, I was shocked, when i told her what happened, but I left out what happened in the woods, I said good bye and left but I told her I will stop nչ. Upon leaving I stayed at a inn in a large human city getting whatever jobs I could but it was hard as humans don't take kindly to tiefling employees so I also had to get into bets and fights to survive. but every night I wouldn't want or even think about sleeping I was jumping into the forest testing my skills and finding new abilities. I looked into any kind of anti-vampiric this group, I asked the local bartender of the horny rabbit. as the bartender shrugged his shoulders and expressed his lack of knowledge I watch a cloaked man walking over very hasty into my line of sight,then towards me and dragged me outside I know I could of stopped him but I was curious, he then pulled my horns back to see my eyes and says "I know your secret. Get out of my territory, OK?" shocked, I acted the opposite, I put my arm around him cheerfully saying "cant we work together you and I? come to my room upstairs and have a proper drink" he comes to the offer but I could see that he wanted me dead, vampires hate having competition and as far as he knew that's why I was here. walking inside, I close the door just as he turns and I kill him with my practised power.
with the rush going through me I felt alive, wanting a trophy I punched his face in and grabbed his fangs and stabbed them into the front of my chest strap. I practised and tested my skills getting a bit stronger every day still wanting to understand why this happened to my, my destiny and whether people will accept me, but it has been 7 years since I have been home and I will return when I have 100 fangs on my strap. Everyone reacts to fear differently.
