The Myrmidons - The Arcani Renegades
By Myrmidon_ 48 Comments
Crafted and birthed through betrayal of trust. The Myrmidons were all once loyal members of the protective Strigidae court sworn to defend kratesis into the very depths of hell. Being hand picked by the Mutant Messiah kratesis due to their individual unparalleled excellence legend states they were possibly the first few Strigidae to have ever existed and to be tasked with guarding kratesis for eternity. Each member possessing a unique asset which was the initial reason for the acceptance into this elusive court of mutants, documented to have battled and partook in hundreds upon hundreds of destructive battles including bouts with shinigami and iliad for unseen reasons lost in the sands of time.
A single of this seemingly invincible group of elitist Strigidae harbored a deep routed jealousy of SLAKE upon seeing its uncharted destructive abilities. Battle after battle, war after war in the name of Mutant safety his jealousy grew more and more seeing the raw energy zapping abilities of such weaponry. His personal loyalty to the Court of Arcani coupled with his loyalty to Krate was almost unbreakable...almost.
Myrmidon was overly fixated with the crude ideology of eternal existence through any means achievable, he was truly unparalleled in his goal to utterly devoid himself of nonexistence (and SLAKE was the counter opposite to such an ideology). He personally knew death was an inexorable imperative, this being an definitive factor in his mindset simply and overwhelmingly being perpetual survival. Habitually driven to the pursuit of this ideology by his astoundingly overbearing family from even before birth being the result of genetically hardened ancestry attaining physical elitism.
The renegade Strigidae was no stranger to deceit having left his own family thousands of years ago after they had poured so much energy into making him one of the finest warriors the universe had ever seen, shunning their love and joining the Court of Arcani as a Strigidae. Watching the Arcani and mutant-kind grow brought a warm feeling to his heart however seeing the death and destruction brought upon the world by this "SLAKE" pained him more than anything had ever before, his own parents disowning him was more bearable than looking upon a weapon which could LITERALLY erase matter from existence. The shackles of loyalty ruptured, the bond of eternal trust faltered, hate grew within his heart. For over three thousand years his goal was simply to steal SLAKE, and murder kratesis.
Deviously recruiting like-minded individuals in the Court of Arcani into his group, bringing and cunningly gaining the trust of senior officials within the Court maliciously planning and preparing for the inevitably attempted acquirement of SLAKE three "loyal" Strigidae's joined his elite task-force.
These three would later be lost in the passage of time all known traces of such infamous legends only a bedtime story for young mutants around the universe, in the depths of space the Court may usher the words "Myrmidons" like one may pronounce "bogeyman" to a small child. They are nothing but myths, built upon legends.
The Godslayer known as kratesis had been requested through an unknown telepathic message to attend a battle against a foe who was told too be too dangerous for the average Arcani bodyguard, willingly opposing any threats to mutant kind the Godslayer arrived upon seen but to no avail was greeted by mutant oppressors indeed the opposite. Her own bodyguards turned renegades confronted and attempted to violently prey SLAKE from her hands - and they failed. Myrmidon was thrown into a black hole by Kratesis for his traitorous behavior and the other three...lost in time.Myrmidon survived, but a shattered distraught version of his former glory always seeking to establish himself once more.
Hiding, planning, waiting.
The wait was over - Having established a finely tuned ideology intertwined with the downfall of the Arcani recruiting an array of fellow Myrmidons boasting the power to finally defeat this "Godslayer" - the Arcani had no shortages of enemies. The newly established (emerging) group would actively appose and undermine all Arcani actives. Mutants and humans, aliens and robots alike are all welcomed to join this group of Ancient Arcani renegades.The simple premise upon any Myrmidons joining this group of ancient background went as following;
- Disrupt all Arcani and Strigidae activities.
- Disrupt any allies of the Arcani and Strigidae.
- Acquire and destroy SLAKE.
- Recruit any willing to participate in the downfall of the Court of Arcani.
- Kill Kratesis.
Thanks for reading :)
