  • On a different topic, my backstory!

    The Xi'iath are a race of batlike creatures of demonic heritage. They rule an empire in the deepest reaches of the Underdark, paying homage to their progenitor: Orcus, the demon lord of undeath.
    Undeath plays a prominent role in their culture. The dead rise again to form armies of laborers or warriors to expand the empire's territory. Enslaved peoples are killed and raised as zombies to serve as docile servants.
    The emperor, known as the Xi'a, is a chosen of Orcus, endowed with the power of necromancy. Their children fight amongst each other to be the one to kill them and drink of their blood to take their place. But first, each must go out into the world and complete a dangerous quest that advances the empire. Each that completes it presents the fruits of their success to the emperor, who chooses one to favor. This doesn't guarantee rulership, though. The assembled children (now adults) fight to the death until only one remains, who consumes the blood of all of their rivals before doing the same to their parent and claiming the throne. Because of this concentration of the entire dynasty's magic in one individual, who then repeats the process with their children, has caused the power vested in the Xi'a to become increasingly powerful over the centuries.
    Xthylzgthyl is the eldest son of the current Xi'a, and sets out on his quest to beat his siblings and claim the throne in Orcus' name. Armed with only his fledgling magics, he must face the world, only seven years old (out of the average Xi'iath's 40), and claim his place at the head of the Xi'iath empire.
