Morteus, though blind, quite deadly. Rumors have been formed on exactly how
he sees, the one closest to the truth is he is so keen with the Ravens, they see
for him. Ravens...a magical bird, through their eyes you can see into the
thoughts of another individual. Morteus is a being from the depths of Purgatory,
commonly used as an assassin to dispose of corrupt Demons. It is rumored he is
human, blessed by Morrigan and Cernunnos, themselves. I hardly believe that
rumor, how could a mere mortal wield a sword with such power? How could a mere
mortal brandish such magical abilities? His sword, a Gift from Hades, was said
to of been lighter then any other sword giving it ease to wield, yet only
Morteus can lay his hands on it. Morteus is quite a powerful individual, but not
unstoppable.
Morteus is son of Lucifer's aide, Asmodeus. His Mother was Arawn, goddess of the
Dead and Purgatory. Early in his youth, he mastered the skill of combat with
blades, particurally the 'Kiss of Hades', a gift bestowed upon him by Hades for
the assassination of his father, Asmodeus, and his uncle, Belzebuth. Such a
battle is was too, a scorned son following the orders of Abaddon, Head of
Moranus, in an epic battle against two of the most powerful individuals to walk
the planet. How was it done? Simply, Hades' blade was crafted to poison and
cinge even a Demon's hide. They underestimated him, and in doing so, met there
death.
Soon after the death of his father, he was highered to assassinate a Seraphim,
the highest rank of Celestial being. The Angel was the third Head of Moranus,
Angelicus, who assassinated Azrael, second Head, to gain his rank. Tiamat asked
Morteus to destroy this Seraphim and take his seat on the Head of Moranus with
Tiamat as his Archangel. Morpheus, though skilled with a blade, was also
magically inclined. He was a top ranked Necromancer, and used his powers of the
Dead to destroy Angelicus. After the assassination, like promised, Morteus took
Head of Moranus. Soon after, Tiamat passed away into the spirit realm of
Purgatory and was replaced by Druid Deavin. After Morteus assassinated
Angelicus, a Nangen Rebel woman appeared, Kralana. Morteus and Kralana soon grew
quite close and Morteus took her in as his wife and Lady of Moranus.
Morteus then set off to Earth to find some suitable creatures there. He found
Dryad Kaney, a powerful Dryad of the Trees; and Syth, a direct relative to
Angelicus without the previous wickedness. Morteus joined a clan called “The
Forsaken Clan†and met a young woman named Rowena who soon became a member of
Moranus too. While residing in the wilderness Morteus met Cybertooth, a young
lycanthrope whom he took in and took care of. In a meeting for the New and
Improved House of Moranus a being of Chaos and great power entered the Meeting
Hall and killed all of Morteus’ opposers, this being was DoomMage.
