talesofcharon.proboards.com/thread/3361/erik-black-knights-inventoryGender: Male
Age: ?
Race: Revenant
Nationality: Frost Gale(Dug up anyway)
Appearance:
Personality: A quiet young man who rarely ever raises his voice or ever shows much panic, regardless of the situation. Whether this is how he really is or the result of whatever he is now, is unclear.
History: Did you ever just wake up one day to realize that you had died? That was the reality that Erik had woken up too. He can't quite recall the who, what, where or why. Just that he knows something had happened. Something that compels his body to walk even though it should be dead. He had somehow retained his mind despite his reanimation. Bound somehow to live despite his condition. Not rotted, not decaying, but almost entirely removed from the senses he once had as one of the living. Occasionally a strong enough reaction provokes thoughts from him as if reliving an ancient memory. But rarely is it ever the same.
He was either once the son of a noble who was loved by the commoners, though sometimes he sees himself wielding the axe at the block of the executioner without any drop of emotion. Other times as a loyal knight who died for his king. He can't be sure which of these is true, or if perhaps, his mind was only trying to make sense by inserting a life to him that wasn't his.
The only things he had known was that one day he had woken up in blackness, pushed against a stone cold slab and crawled out of it, still in his armor. He had stumbled out of some isolated tomb that had been robbed, and found himself wandering a place he had never seen before. The only clue was a torn page of some kind of journal he had in a language he didn't know, but somehow just had an instinct on what it had said.
"As their rage seethed, I swelled with pride. Mere man had done the impossible. Facing the worst horrors of the world, and I had outwitted them. If I had just paid what we agreed, it may have been better for everyone involved. When they finally smiled to me and congratulated me on my cleverness, I realized my mistake. Do not do this."
