Early history
Renal was a caring, social and friendly boy whom everyone seemed to like despite his ocasional empty boasts. Extremely little is recorded from his first ten years of life, but at the age of 13, he is known to have found a book about magic. This was no fairy-tale of kind fairies and misunderstood witches, but a record of notorious necromancers through the ages. Fascinated by the tales of men and women selling thier soul to highest bidder of the abyss in exchange for power no man could even dream of, Renal found himself longing to be a sorcerer himself. He started studying black magic, but quickly got caught by his parents who forbade him to read such stories. He continued in secret, however, and soon attempted to summon a demon, overestimating his power. He did manage to get contact, to bring the devil to him, but then everything went wrong. The devil made an illusion of one of the ritual candles falling over, making a hole in his pentagram. Believing in the trick, Renal jumped out of his protective sigil and was emediately cornered buy the devil he so foolishly summoned. In panic, he asked what the devil wished him to do to save himself. The devil asked him to accept the power of basic magic in exchange for his soul. Renal agreed, thinking it was a good deal for him. He had no idea by that time how important one's soul is. He continued studying demonology, using his limited magical power to aid him and tease his sister and elder brother. He soon learned how important one's soul was and summoned 'his' devil once more, demanding it back or a thousand times greater magic. The devil refused blankly, but Renal knew what he was doing this time. He knew a command word long lost that caused the summoned being insuferable pain. He warned the devil of this, but the devil wouldn't listen. Then Renal spoke it, a word so evil that even the greatest demons would have trouble saying it without a slight feeling of shame. This time, the devil agreed in giving Renal more magic. Barely alive, the devil returned to Hell to recover, but seeing how weakened it was, it's rivals soon overthrew it, claiming Renal's and other's souls. Feeling his magic diminish, Renal attempted to summon the dead devil, but got only a corpse. Then he attempted to summon the devil's succeser. He got a weak-willed musclehead of a devil whom he quickly tortured into giving him back his soul and grant him magic. Soon after this, Renal was banished from his family home for disobediance and notorious cruelty. He travelled to the South East Island where he started his military career.
Newer history
Life quickly got boring in the South-East, having to pretend to be a good person, he soon emmigrated to the Colonies. He joined the realm of Giblot mostly by accident. Had he given the realm summary a second thought, he'd be going to Outer Tilog instead. Seeing that there were other evil nobles in Giblot, however, Renal stayed and is there this day today. He's been allowed to practice necromancy as long as he isn't sending his minions at the realm. Soon after joining Giblot, Renal became a trader in order to make his economy more stable. Failing to make a good deal, however, Renal rejoined the army and has recently animated a group of archers to be his military slaves.
The archer skeletons proved to have the same benefits and and drawbacks as living men. They didn't, however, complain about lack of payment. Unfortunately for Renal, he needs to refresh the spell that holds his minions under his control every week, costing roughly the same as paying normal men. Still, he's happy with the element of fear they spread amoung his enemies and thier mindless personalities means he can tell them to do whatever he wants of them without them complaining.
Only days ago, Renal was bitten by a rogue vampire! This proved a great shock for him and forced him a step back in his secret attempts to control every undead that exists upon this world. He had to get aid (though not willingly) from the scholar Goergyboy. He was unconcius for a day and a night, but then he went after the vampire in his own, selfish, way. He soon caught up, and dealt with the vampire. He reurned to Goergyboy with the ash of the vampire and was asked to get a necklace too. He returned to the graveyard and killed a peasant he found with several necklaces on him, robbed the dead body and returned to Goergyboy. Goergyboy then gave him a cure, took the necklaces and made to go, but Renal assaulted him, digging his loosening fangs into the scholar's neck and made sure they'd stay there for a while. He was captured and the students of the scholar gave him a severe beating. Thereafter Goergyboy set him free.
Due to a group of scribes' bloody murders, this record has not been updated for quite some time. A brief summary of the events that past follow: Renal was appointed as Count of Ammersfield as Zhar dumped it due to reasons kept secret. Renal has kept the region in line very effectively, using propoganda and a nice look to attract more peasants to rule. Beneath the shiny surface, however, lies a different world. Here are the vast saltmines that provide most of the income for Ammersfield. Also teams of slave explorers search for the ancient vats of Ammersfield.
During the recent rebellion in Giblot, Renal joined the rebels, surprisingly fighting for freedom! Surely he must have had his own reasons to do so. Surely he must have benefit from a succes, and he got it! The day after the rebel forces took the palace, Renal was elected Banker of Giblot. He started work at once and is not to be disturbed. The last that tried died.
Rumours about Renal Enstance
Some dark voices tell the tale of Renal attempting to sell the souls of his entire family to a high entity of evil. The deal failed as the demon already had Renal's and Haroldin's souls while Leonard's was protected by a massive power and (this part of the document has been scratched vigourisly, making it impossible to read) ..s worthless.
This rumour is nearly a fact: Renal is searching for the ancient vats of Ammersfield which were hidden by the Wamphyri family. Renal has not yet succeeded, but the day he does will be a day of true peril.
OOC: This character uses magic in his roleplays. If any GMs want me to stop that, I can do it. I don't want any trouble ;)
