Dragonking

was born in the year of the dragon and given the name Arie-Louis. My
hometown is the village Uma, that lies behind the feared Valley of the
Dragons. This valley was ruled by Acidius, the Lord of the Dragons. I
grew up into an idealistic young warrior that fought for the weak and
searched for justice and knowledge. My parents were pleased to see me
grow into a fighter with his heart at the right place. One day that I
marked as the blackest day on earth, I entered the Valley of the Dragons
in search for fruit. (in this valley grew a special kind of fruit that
my parents liked very much). Suddenly I got caught by the Lord of the
Dragons. He asked me why I was trespassing and I replied to him that I
was only in search for fruit to give to my parents. He became
angry and spoke: " I will punish you in a special way, so that you
will remember to stay out of here." He let me loose and flew away.
I ran as fast as I could to my home but when I got close I saw fire. The
dragon Acidius had killed my parents by burning down my house. From
that day on I searched for the dragon everywhere. He would be punished
by me. I entered the Valley of the Dragons in my search for the evil one.
After two years, my search came to an end. I found the Lord of the
Dragons Acidius in a cave. There our fight began. It was a vicious fight
but after an hour of three the dragon felt down. I held my basterd sword
of the heavens in the air to strike the dragon with a final blow. Then I
lowered my sword, I couldn't kill a creature that was already defeated.
That would go against everything I stand for. But Acidius screamed at
me: "Kill me, kill me or I never shall be free." Then I struck
him with a final blow. When my sword hit him I shouted: "Forgive me
Lord of the Dragons." He died right away. Then suddenly a
light filled the cave. There it was, the ghost of the dragon. It said:
" thanks for killing me, an evil sorcerer had put a spell on me
because I refused him at my court. Only someone pure of heart could lift
this spell by killing me. Now I can be reborn again without the evil
inside me. I know that you are pure at heart, therefore I grant you the
title King Of The Dragons and with this title comes immortal life. That
is my gift to you and when I am reborn I will search for you to fight by
your side." I
changed my name in DragonKing. I build my castle in the Valley of the
Dragons and named it Dragon-Castle. The valley became a peaceful
and wealthy place to live. Many years later I heard that the Shire of
Tristam was threatened by an great evil. Since then I have been there
many times for defeating the evil ones that live beneath the Cathedral.
In my search for justice there I met a rogue named Sylvia. I joined her
in her battle against evil and was not surprised that she was my equal
in battle. When we got badly injured from the battle we went to my
castle to rest and heal. There came more days that we fought together
side by side and as the time went by we fell in love. Now she is my
queen and she has chanced her name in DragonQueen. In
our battle against the evil beneath the cathedral we became friends with
Albertus, an member of the clan called Immortality. As time went by we
saw more members of that clan and we saw what they did. We both joined
their clan to serve their High Council and to destroy the Dark Lord
Diablo.
