Background:
Rossburg was the son of a human commoner, his life would have been lead as a farmer, he would have had a family, grown old, and died as many do, unimportant. But fate had a different idea... One night a cult of demon worshipers raided his small village and stole him away as a would be sacrifice to their dark "gods" Rossburg was 15. Alas, to the cultists dismay something went wrong in their ritual. All Alex knows is that he felt a strange, foreign power flow into his body. It gave him strength enough to break the bonds the cultists had used to restrain him, and using a few fighting techniques he had learned from one of the 3 towns guardsmen managed to fend off two of the cultists and escape with cries of you cannot escape! The Demon has you! They are stronger than us all! chasing after him. After several nights of haunting dreams, harrowing flights and drinking rain water Alex stumbled out into a quiet monastery. It was a beautiful sanctuary where a man sat meditating next to a small spring. Alex managed to stumble up to the man before falling flat from hunger and exhaustion. The man picked the boy up and took him inside feeding him and tending to him. That night the cultists set upon the sanctuary. Alex thought with horror that he had brought doom to the man that had been so kind to him as 3 of the cultists burst through the door. However the man showed no sigh of fear and when the cultists set upon him with their horrid weapons the man easily blocked each stroke. He returned their manners in kind. Before long, 5 men lay broken, unconscious or dead in the building. Not a word said the man, but merely began to remove the cultists bodies from his home before returning to finish his meal. The next day, there was a note written in chalk for Alex. Meet me at the spring when he looked out of the small hut he saw the man, just as he had seen him yesterday, meditating. As Alex approached the man finally spoke. you have nightmares, not normal ones, but ones caused of evil, an evil that is within you." Alex nodded. "yes, they did some ritual, I still feel it now, like it wants to consume me. They said it was stronger than any of us." Alex cast his head downwards in despair and defeat the mans words bringing truth to the cultists claims. however the man smiled. only if you believe it so. I will show you how to fight this demon within you. I can show you how to bend the power to your own strength. It won't be easy, and it will take time. But we, are far stronger than any demon can ever be." Alex looked to the man who was know watching him. suddenly a determined expression came across his face and he nodded at the man. And so it went, for the next 5 years Alex would train under this man, learning the ways of martial arts and finally mastering his own mind, body, and spirit enough to drown out the horrible nightmares he had had for years. Sadly, after 6 years, the Man passed away. at first, Alex was taken completely by surprise at the man rapid deterioration of health he took care of the man for a whole year, still learning wisdom from the sick man. Finally, after an outburst of despair from Alex, the man, called Ryuu, told him to not be sad, it was merely his time, for he was 115 years of age. With this final revelation he passed away. Leaving Alex to find, and walk, his own path as he had. RP Sample- Today, Alexander still does not have any particular path to follow, he helps those he feels need it, and punishes those he feels deserve it. However he makes a careful note to always, always, prove that a mortal man, is stronger than any demon, within or without. Today he has taken it further, to prove the power of the mortal race of man can even outmatch the strength of angels, and devils in combat. Because after all, a man can learn, and grow. A devil cannot, he has, and will always be what he is. So, he has naturally been attracted by the incursions of the world wound, and has finally made it to the areas affected. HAHA! Come come! See the strength the human body can obtain! Strongarm Rossburg will demonstrate! Yes come! Have no doubt that we are, and can be, stronger than any demon! The show starts Tomorrow! Alexander looks around at the people, he wasn't supposed to do anything until tomorrow, but he wanted to now. He was always an excitable man, besides he wanted to make sure word got around. HAHA! yes, come! see the great Alexander wrestly with not one! not two! but three bulls at the same time! HAHAHA! Yes! I shall break pure stone with my fists as well! BWAHAHAH! Alexander Strongarm Rossburg fears nothing! He does not believe in limitations for those that train and focus their will nothing is impossible! But remember! The heart, Is always the strongest muscle!
