About Damian Ortova

Damian is a decrepit old man without much life in his body... and his soul.

20 years ago, Damian lived with his grandson Erbilón. They were inseparable. Damian knew a few magic tricks and the boy loved to see his grandfather to perform it over and over again. The boy learned this tricks at an incredible rate. It was clear that the boy had a talent for magic, and his grandfather was determined to help him develop this talent. His grandson -all that was left in the old man's life- will someday became someone great, and Damian would help him in all he could. He had some savings, all he could save in the second half of his life, and he would make a good use of it. The next year was the 10º birthday of the boy and Damian would pay the loan for the local mage guild.

However, a couple of months before the birthday, a plague of unknown source ravaged the district. Many lives was lost that day in pain and agony. And the cruel destiny didn't take his life -a long and happy life-. The cruel destiny took his grandson's life instead, who barely endured the suffering. Damian was broken since that day.

Damian was crying Erbilon's death for three months. And then, he realized that this suffering will be the guide of the rest of his life. The gods stolen his grandson from his old hands. So, Damian has to make justice on his own way. He has to bring the children back to his side.

So, Damian used his life savings to earn the forbidden knowledge needed to bring back his grandson to life: the necromancy. Now, 20 years later, at the age of almost 80, he began to understand his darkest secrets. He could be playing with his grandson real soon, once again. Damian only wanted to live enough to see his dream come true.
