Beliefs in regards to the Old Gods

Once the Crystal Maiden did spin lies to her pawn, claiming the other Old Gods to be vipers and demons. So Xlair Silverblade was deceived and so too were his people. But as the Bloody Prince rose to the heavens he gained knowledge. Knowledge of the corruption, of the lies, of the inbalance. Thus he has realized that the Crystal Maiden is the true demon of the the divines and whispers such truths to his acolytes.

Now the Bloody Prince seeks to break free of the fetters chaining him to the Crystal Maiden and usurp the power of the Dark Mistress for his own. For the Bloody Prince has seen that the Lady of Death is too kind, while the Soul Crusher is too cruel. Thus he will be the true arbiter of the dead, just and fair in all things.

The Eternal Emperor

Xlair Silverblade stood 7'2" tall, with a slender but muscular frame. His skin was a pale alabaster and stretched taught over high cheekbones, a firm square jaw, and a narrow nose. His eyes are black, and the fury within them makes them resemble burning coals that lock on anything he finds worth his attention. He wore his long thick raven black hair down, where it reaches to the middle of his back.

His body was covered from the neck down with jagged black steel armor. The armor, called the Armor of Arshava, is a torture device that causes the metal blades and screws to consistently twist and move, shredding the flesh beneath and causing blood to run between the crevices of the armor. Xlair Silverblade had worn this armor since any have known him, and know that he has tamed the armor by sating it with the blood of his enemies.

For his bloodletting, he wielded two Nodachi inspired Silver Blades, which are razor sharp and 6' long, and sheathed across his back in an "X". Often, he wore the tattered heavy black robes to conceal the horror of his armor from those around him.

As the Emperor of the Vordul Sanguinis, he resided in the Cursed City of Wudenkin. He refused to see any other than those that have obtained the rank of Acolyte. The Crimson Veil were allowed to be within range to uphold their vow of protection, but are not allowed to address him.

Due to the curse of his armor, Xlair was generally either bathing in blood, or on the battlefield to shed blood himself.
