Story:
A boy born in the woods was told he was going to be something great, so he became great.
That's the world the legend worked in and the spells he cast, the things wrought in prophecy in fables. Born a long time ago, in a place much darker than any around today, he climbed from witch's womb and was born to the truth of nature's brutality.
The whole of the monster's history outlasted Empires and Gods alike, watching new ones rise from the ashes of others while always having his taste. The man motivated solely to himself, the narcissistic monstrosity who strove only to shine brighter, last longer, and live free. A creature of Darwin before there was Darwin.
Blood magic, Black magic, voodoo, Thaumaturgy, Verisimilomancy, Necromancy, Death magic, the list goes on, all across the world he's roamed collecting books and writing his own. Harvester of knowledge and power, dabbler in dark arts, there are no limits he will not cross to consume the world in his shadow.
He's bound his soul and body to spirits, demons, and other monsters in order to gain the benefits of their powers and extend his own life. And there are no avenues that he will not consider in order to accumulate more power or knowledge.
Throughout the ages he's been known as different variations of the boogie man, wendigo, and demons. He's constructed a vast empire by way of favor through magics, helped people ascend to high places, by promise of a low future.
Wanderer of wrecked ships and other broken places. A Council of wizards who'd certainly turn a sour eye to the his abominations, the spider treads lightly and weaves its web in the dark. Never knowing what things he'll make.
