I must point out that this is not actually my character. He is a character someone else made up in one of my DnD campaigns. I am not sure at what point in his development you want him still so I will have to give you a history summary and let you take from it as you want if you decide to use him. It may take a while for me to get the bio up as the computer with his actual information on it is the one that is still in disrepair.

Name: Zagarth Rodany
Age: 23
Race: Goliath(or half giant or something if necessary) and due to other events, vampire.
Height: 8'1
Appearance: Tan skin(like rock tan rather than human skin tan) with some black marks on it(no particular design was ever said, he was always wearing armor and a helmet)
Weapon: Great axe(his final great axe held the vorpal enchantment)
Armor/Equipment: Plate armor(final set was godplate enchanted so he could move more easily), a horned helm, a cloak with a brooch both of which enchanted to give him more vitality, and standard adventuring gear needed by any adventurer. (There was other stuff but it has no real place in a story)
Personality: Enjoys killing stuff, being bigger and stronger than almost everything, gets a thrill from tough fights. Wants to be the strongest, and wants to prove his superior fighting prowess.
Background: Started at as almost any adventurer as a simple sword for hire. With some other adventurers took out a goblin lair(funny actually Taiyama was one of these people), got drugged by the watch captain, and ended up in a cult hideout. The cult performed a ritual to seal a powerful demon in him, the demon could do nothing but sit inside him and whisper a bit. He was saved and continued adventuring. He became a famous champion of a fighting arena, then went on to join an army. After almost single handedly winning several key battles he moved on only to be captured by the army he had just been fighting. He broke out of the prison, fought the numerous guards in his way to escape and nearly killed the leader of the enemy country. Leaving he slew his fifth dragon(his first, which was a baby dragon was actually before the goblin lair). He was then turned into a vampire by one of his companions, only for the power and strength it gave him. He had numerous fights then to test his new strength, then he and his companions were confronted by a mysterious old wizened man who gave them amulets to protect them from powerful auras

that some of the most powerful of beings carry about them. Then the old man led them to a portal to fight a demon lord that was preparing to take over the world(this was Orcus if you know anything about him). Orcus nearly slew him in one attack, but one of his companions used his vampiric hypnotism powers(and his epic destiny abilities) to control him temporarily, long enough to force him to obliterate himself. The companions moved on from here, and fought their most powerful enemy again. Who forcibly removed the demon which also took Zagarth's soul which was the anchor to the seal. The companions went adventuring more, to gain strength. Zagarth cared little, he was a husk at this point. But he knew he needed his soul again. They confronted their enemy once again. Who stopped them, and returned Zagarth's soul to him. Zagarth found he valued life and much of the world much less than he had before as a result of being separated from his soul for such a time. They then fought the demon that had been planted in him so that their once enemy could use its power to make them all gods. After nearly all of them had fallen the battle was won. The power of the demon was used to fuel a wish spell, and the enemy they once had created a world in which they were all gods.

EDIT: couple things I forgot, first his eyes after the vampiric enhancement turned from a solid brown to like an orange-red mist filling the entire eye. His class was a fighter put he picked up some ranger type skills.

That is his entire history summarized as best as I knew how. Take him from whichever part of it you want if you even decide to use him at all. As I said Orcris is enough for me, this was just a thought and since you hated Bandos so much I thought you might like it.Do as you wish, you are the writer and you have done a great job so far. Btw, don't put in this character just to please me, only put him in at your own discretion. I'm not sure I've ever seen you turn down a bio.

Ah, sorry, the add is written, but... I've had a really lousy day, and honestly, don't even feel well enough to proofread the add or post it. Sorry, I'll have it up as soon as I feel better.

Liam whispered in an arcane tongue as he traced his finger over the seal in front of him. Once he finished, the seal glowed for a brief moment, then faded, and the door before Liam opened. Out of an abundance of caution, the leader of the Cult of Darkness glanced around to make sure he wasn’t being followed, although, it was doubtful that an intruder could even find his way to this part of the Cult** base, much less get past the numerous guards and traps. Satisfied that he was not being watched, Liam walked through the door, which quickly closed and resealed itself behind him.

The room he had entered was small and nondescript save for a single ebony pedestal in its center holding a single book, covered in chains. The chains which bound the book were made of silver and covered in symbols that had been forgotten by all but a few mages. In the third age, however, these symbols would have been quickly recognizable as sacred symbols, usually utilized only in restraining the most powerful of demons.

With a deep breath, Liam approached the pedestal, and in the process, got a better look at the book it held. The book was made of some form of leather, unrecognizable except in the fact that it was neither made of cowhide nor dragonhide. As Liam got closer, sigla covering the book flared to life, beginning to glow orange red, and a slit in the center of the book opened, revealing a single, red eye. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Although he had seen this countless times, Liam still flinched at the eye’s opening. On its part, the eye simply stared at Liam with mild interest. However, as Liam reached his hand toward the book, that interest seemed to be quickly replaced with excitement. Even though he had not undone the chains on the book, Liam could still feel it calling out to him, trying to convince him to hurry up and release it. Liam shuddered at this, he had grown to expect it, after all, the book before him originally belonged to one of the seventy-two demons who had become strong enough to be considered gods, and the book had taken after its former master.

It could be useful; for the book could, without fail, reveal anything of the past or present to the one who read it; even the most secret thoughts could be revealed by the book. The problem was, that being a demonic book, it had a will of its own, and would try to reveal truths that would tempt the reader to do evil. Only with a strong will could one force the book to reveal what he or she wanted to know about, and should their will slack for even a moment, the book itself would shift to reveal things it wanted the reader to know.

That was why, as powerful and useful as this book was, Liam only used it as a last resort; when all other methods of acquiring information had failed. He was, even now considering using the book to find the location of the Weapons, and see if, with the small bit of his memory he had regained, he could find out more about his past. However, even as he was reaching for the book, Liam decided the risk was not worth the potential benefit, and withdrew his hand. As he did so, he could feel the book emanating disappointment, but, chained as it was by blessed chains, it was unable to do anything else but return to its sleep.

With a deep sigh, Liam exited the vault, and stepped into the hall.

“Hello Liam!” a voice greeted. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."

Liam looked up in shock and saw himself facing Usha. Only something seemed amiss… a few moments later, he realized what it was.

“Hekate,” he sighed, “How did you get a set of Usha’s clothes?”

“Aw, darn it!” exclaimed Hekate, “How did you know it was me?”

“Incubus’ intuition,” replied Liam.

“Cheater,” hissed Hekate, “Oh, well, I came all this way to harass Usha, and I’m not leaving until I succeed; whether or not you’re willing!”

“What’s that supposed to mean?” questioned Liam.

“Can’t you figure out?” Hekate asked seductively as her tail wrapped around Liam’s.

Liam’s face immediately went beet red, causing Hekate to laugh, before quickly tackling Liam to the ground.

“Get off!” shouted Liam, “This is wrong on so many levels, and besides, you’re married!”

“True,” commented Hekate, “But I’m not going to do anything; I’m just going to grope you for a little bit.*

*How the hell is that not doing anything?!” demanded Liam.

“Oh, shut up cherry boy,” said Hekate, “It isn’t anything personal, I’m just doing this to get under Usha’s skin.”

“And that makes it okay?!” questioned Liam.

“Definitely,” said Hekate.

“Seriously,” said Liam, “Cut it out, or you may regret it.”

“Aw, the wittle cherry boy is making freats,” said Hekate, placing her hand at Liam’s waist.

“Hekate, stop it!” ordered Liam.

“And in it goes,” said Hekate, simultaneously sticking her hand into Liam’s pants (well, robe bottoms, but you get the idea.) However, the moment she did so, a clap of thunder filled the room, and Hekate was sent flying into a wall; her skin and hair singed.

“What the heck just happened?” asked Hekate as she stood up.

“Shouldn’t that be my question, Hekate?”

Hekate turned to see Ayumu standing a few feet away from her, glaring.

“I’m not Hekate,” said Hekate, “I’m Usha.”

An amused look crossed Ayumu’s face, “Really?” he asked, “Then how did you forget?”

“Forget what?” asked Hekate. "He appears in the Form of a Man with many Countenances; and he hath a Book in his right hand. His Office is to teach all Arts and Sciences unto any; and to declare the Secret Counsel of any one."
