The Darkheart Twins (Tao and Ambryn)
Gender: Male and Female
Race: Tiefling
Nationality: Off-Charon
Appearance: Tao stands at 5’11, and his sister Ambryn stands a little under him at 5’9. They have ruby skin, flawless and beautiful, with statuesque beauty in their similar bone structure. She is full lipped, he is strong browed, and both attract stares of lust wherever they go. Their horns extend straight out to either side before curving upwards, similar to a bull’s. Both wear long, black leather coats, though Tao wears his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. Their eyes are the full colored eyes of most Tieflings, and are bright yellow.
Personality: Ruthless and self-serving, the Twins delight in playing games with those around them, and seek to rise to the top, no matter the cost. The Twins are mentally linked, and often speak in unison. Tao is more socially smooth, and can charm those around him, while Ambryn is more unstable and prone to enjoy violence, both as an action or simply as a topic of conversation. Though both are skilled fighters, Tao tends to sit back and let Ambryn do the fighting; She prefers to have all the fun anyways.
History : Born to a prostitute in a land far from Charon, Ambryn and Tao Darkheart grew up on the streets, poor and uncared for. They survived due to three things: Their skill with their fists, their ruthlessness, and the telepathic link they’ve shared since birth. But this link came with a price; Any damage one sibling received, the other did as well.
When they were 8 years old, Orgo the Rock, Champion of the Arena, killed their mother in a drunken daze. Enraged and grieving, the twins decided to kill Orgo, relying on their ability to fight in complete coordination to win against the champion. One night, as Orgo stumbled home from the inn, drunk and tired, the twins attacked. They put up a good fight for a pair of 8 year old street urchins, but the Champion of the arena soon broke them, leaving them behind in a pool of their own blood. As they lay there, limbs twisted at odd angles and bone protruding from their flesh, they took solace in the only place they could: each other’s minds. As their bodies lay broken, their minds merged into one. Eventually they healed, but acted and spoke as one being. Over the course of the next few years, they managed to eventually regain their individuality, though still remain more deeply linked than any telepaths to ever live. They often still respond as one, and always know what the other thinking, but now have their own personality and opinions. Eventually, they rose to the top the underworld in their land, amassing wealth, power, and a dreadful reputation. When the held enough power in their hands, they had the now-retired Orgo brought before them. He was old now, weak, but the twins made him pay for the murder of their mother all those years ago. But the killing of a Champion, even a former Champion, is no small thing, and the Twins soon found a bounty on their heads too large to ignore. Their homeland was no longer safe for them. With little choice before them, they set out on a boat for Charon, intent on building themselves up once more. They even have their eye on an old dilapidated manor in the Shadewood Forest, where they hope to eventually settle as the Lord and Lady Darkheart of the Darkheart Estate…
Rest assured… Nothing will get in their way.
