Rekeshi

Rekeshi emerges from the shadows of history, a draconid whose very presence sends shivers down the spines of those who dare to remember. Born 72 years ago in the sulfurous pits of Mount Vraxis, Rekeshi is a member of the draconid race — a dragon-like humanoid race shrouded in mystery and legend. Their appearance is nothing short of terrifying, with scaled skin that absorbs light, making them seem like a living silhouette. Sharp fangs jut out from an elongated snout, complemented by a fiery orange underbelly that glows like embers in a dying fire. Intricate horn-like structures crown their head, and their red glowing eyes pierce through the darkness, marking them as a creature not to be trifled with. Rekeshi's early years are marred by conflict and violence. Their menacing grin and fierce expression make them a natural villain in the eyes of those who crossed their path. Rekeshi's behavior is that of cruelty and vengeance, often reveling in the suffering of others. They manipulate and torment, leaving a trail of despair in their wake. This penchant for villainy leads them to commit numerous crimes, most notably enslaving entire villages and smuggling forbidden magical artifacts. Years in darkness begin when Rekeshi is finally captured by the Order of the Radiant Dawn, a coalition of knights and wizards dedicated to purging evil from the realm. Thrown into an abyssal prison known as the Pit of Sorrows, Rekeshi is left to rot with other unspeakable horrors. These are years filled with torment and relentless darkness, broken only by the occasional flicker of their own demonic red eyes. Despite the soul-crushing conditions, Rekeshi’s anger and malevolent spirit remain unbroken; plotting and biding their time. Escape comes in a flood of fire and chaos. A cataclysmic event — some say it was orchestrated by a cult worshiping draconids — causes the prison to falter. Walls crumble, and enchanted barriers shatter. Seizing the moment, Rekeshi slaughters their way to freedom, their claws and fangs wet with the blood of guards and captives alike. The world beyond the Pit is drastically changed, but Rekeshi remains a constant, unwavering force of evil. Further development sees Rekeshi harnessing new dark powers. They immerse themselves in necromancy, summoning the dead to do their bidding. Villages fall, and kingdoms tremble. Rekeshi’s demonic form, sharpened by years of imprisonment, becomes even more fearsome as they learn to channel ancient, malevolent energies. Partnerships with other dark entities are formed, alliances bound by mutual interests in chaos and destruction. Rekeshi's current occupation is that of a warlord and dark sorcerer. They command a legion of undead minions and loyal draconid followers, expanding their influence over vast territories. Rekeshi’s citadel, known as the Fiery Spire, is a fortress of despair, guarded by enchanted stone gargoyles and rivers of molten lava. Their overall goal remains ever fixed: to engulf the world in darkness and fire, to bring about an era of endless suffering and domination.
