The other characters mentioned in the history will be posted soon. (If Ro is approved) Note: This character was originally designed as if he came from a different place, but in order to confine him to the existing map I've made the army which picked him up simply an army, if this is a problem I will change it. What would be really cool is if he could be from another continent. I could do the map and it could be somewhere for some to explore. Maybe what's his name the wyrven rider who is luanching a giant ship? (Plus you know wherever the else his ship ends up) I can see how this would be unfair thought so it will have to be up to Casey. Al'Amkish is on an island, of the coast of either the new continent or the prexisting one depending on Casey's desicion.

History: Ro, born Assad Darius, grew up in the isolated mountain home of his father. His mother was a whore from a village the name of which he never knew, and he never met her. His father was a retired soldier, who in his old age withdrew from society, supporting himself by living off the mountain, and teaching his son to do the same. As he grew his father taught him to hunt and to fight, to fish and farm and finally to do magic. At the age of 17 his father was killed by a nomad army while Assad was hunting in the fields. He returned home to find there cottage burned to the ground, his father hung, and his life in tatters. Searching through the ruins of his home he found his fathers sword Havengrail, and a gold pendant which had been his mothers. He left the mountains on horseback riding into the great plains. As he wondered aimlessly he was found by a traveling general and company, and upon showing them his skills he was drafted into the army, though not against his will. He fought ferociously with more determination than any of the veterans and quickly climbed the ranks, finally reaching the rank of general. He became infamous for his determination in battle, and how he could stand against all assaults. Among the soldiers he was famed for his habit to eat, sleep, live and, train where they did as if he was nothing but a common soldier. Among his enemies he was feared for his seeming ability to withstand any attack, no matter how hard. The nomads who destroyed his youth said he had the hardiness of stone and the ferocity of a bear. This, his hulking stature and his isolated youth earned him the nickname man of the mountains or mountain man. He met his downfall when he was leading his company through a destroyed city named Al'Amkish which was held by enemy troops. He had been promised reinforcements which never came and as he fought against increasingly overwhelming odds his crew was all killed, except for his first lutenant Lt. Gregor who happened to be a nomad of the tribe which destroyed his youth but who had deserted that life. As they fought side by side a huge explosion caused the building above them to collapse, pinning Darius to the ground under a burning support. Gregor who could have saved his life instead forsaked him to join the other side. Betrayed and left to die, with a broken leg and, blinded by the explosion most men would have given up. Darius however cut off his own leg thus freeing himself from the wreckage. As he climbed out of the rubble he found the destroyed city deserted, the enemy forces had come only to kill his squad. Someone had given them information, where his party would be. Resolving to gain vengeance on the Lt. he took the name Ro as a new beginning he made his temporary home in an abandoned building to recuperate. As he lived in the city he found that evil spawnings and mutated creatures had taken up residence in the wasteland, created by the dark magic used to destroy it. They were only beasts instinctual and incapable of reasoning nor in possession of the intelligence it required but they trained him back into shape. Soon he found the few other people who lived in the city, one of them a magician named Azer who possessed a steel leg which he fastened to Ro with his magic. Now, 9 years later, fully recuperated and even stronger than before, the time is upon him to venture out into the world from his isolated home to hunt down Gregor. Horribly disfigured from the explosion and having convinced Azer to come, he is ready to stalk 1 last mutated beast, to make sure he can still fight, and then find his betrayer…
