Warlen's Tale (Story with MOCs)

[The Chosen Minifigure]

Ladies and gentlemen.

Hi.

Some of you (not many, I'll wager) may or may not have been following the growth of my character Warlen Melimane on the Heroica RPG.

Now, it is time. This is the tale of how, so many years ago now, the tale of the Gladeborn, Warlen Melimane.

And Quarion.

Long ago, and by long I mean several years ago, Warlen was still living with his kind, and Quarion was still... living.

Quarion was a rouge, who had come to the kingdom of the elves to help them defeat a dragon, by the name of Nebulae.

He was bored for the first few days, so he took to wandering the forest, and it was by the river Darguill that the rogue met Warlen Melimane.

He was practicing his wood Magic, and they soon became firm friends.

On the day when he was deemed to fight Nebulae, the great dragon burned Quarion with dark flame from the pits of hell, scarring him and setting in motion events that no Elven cleric could heal without corrupting themselves.

And so up came Warlen, a young Elven mage back then, and he cast a spell that meant his friend would live... with both reward and price. Despite being a Mage, not a Cleric, he did it. Somehow, impossibly, incredibly, it worked.

The reward? Quarion was alive, and without his body, his mind could think freely, therefore allowing him to be amazingly intelligent.

The Price? He was reduced to a floating, flaming head, and stripped of his Rougish powers.

But Warlen paid a far worse price.

The darkness corrupted him and his staff, so that he became a slave to the forces of dark Magyk, against his will.

Thay left the Mages, and Warlen emptied his small home of all his belongings, and we began our journey.

Ever since, they have traveled the land searching for cures.

Authors note: I hope to update every 2 weeks at least,
