General Mar-Argento

The general of the armies of consumption and fiercest of the King's servants. After a failed coup-d'etats Mara the mighty was stripped of title and banished to “the gray wastes”. The General wandered in despair for millennia until stumbling upon an alchemist and mage, one of the few indigenous occupants of the wastes. The mage, a decrepit, crooked twisted figure, offered to make a portal to escape the wastes but asked that in return the General, standing at 40 feet with mercurial silver skin and muscular power beyond fathom, give him his body and would just send his spirit through. The General agreed to these terms. With a few secret incantations the mage promptly conjured the portal, and in a cosmic swirl of light, the General appeared in the year 3 B.C. in the western Darkwood.

Weakening rapidly in the atmosphere the General needed a host; being hungry for power he wanted to ensure he picked the dominant being of this strange new world. A day’s observation demonstrated that the wolf reigned mightiest in the land. Swelling the hound to massive proportions, he was insatiable and spent the better part of 50 years killing elk and Native Americans. The General birthed two mighty offspring in A.D. 50, Adam and Ario, who in turn spawned the first pack whose descendants would roam the woods until A.D. 1978 when a small pack would be captured, domesticated, and trained by BVL. The General spent years trying to navigate the psychological labyrinth to reach the center of the Bog in an attempt to recover Sorrow. In 1769 The General came within feet of the weapon; however, it deemed him unworthy and he was poisoned by his own shame. The General let humility enter his heart for the first time in a thousand life ages, and in this moment chose to pass into the winds. As his tissues dissolved the General climbed Rim Ram Mountain and gazed out at its last sunset. A final gust of wind tore away his remaining viscera into the jet stream in a fine red powder, leaving nothing but his mighty bones on the summit.
