Stygian Husk
Bound by Fate
He was once a student at a local college, the son of a slightly rich lawyer. He "Enjoyed" his jaded life, going to partys, bars, nightclubs, and other such places when he was not studying(which was very often.) Till one fatefull day he awoke not in his bed, but on a cold slab. The Circle of thorns had Kidnapped him for a ritual of special importance.
The local Branch of the Circle had discovered a way that if you bound a Deamon Properly to a Particularly Weak-willed soul it could be controlled. Max Was that Weak-willed soul.
He awoke on the cold slab, Tied down and wearing nothing but the runes crudely drawn on his flesh by the circle mages. Cold and confused he tried to escape but could not, all around him a hum of energy and green light. The mages approched muttering some dark spell. It was enough to make him pass out.
He awoke Kneeling on the floor, The mages arround the room dead as if torn apart by a beast, and At his feet a female hero wearing torn robes gasping for breath. His chains lain at his feet Max stood up confused. What had happend? Why was he kneeling there his hands arround her neck. The Ritual was never finished. The binding was incomplete, but now his body and soul was shared with another, and it was hungry.
When The Circle had reached the most important part of the ritual, the closeing of the circle of binding, or The seal that Protects not only the Circle Magi but the soul of the one he was bonded to, the worst happend. A hero arrived to "save" the day. Without the control of the Magi, the demon broke its chains, useing its new fragile weak body to attack the magi, angry over its imprisonment.
When Max Regained control, he looked around. He was surrounded by dead magi and a dead hero... If it were not for the now dead hero's friends Max would have been lost to the demon right then and there. Thankfully they saw through to his plight and helped him. Provideing him with a Special Runebound set of armor, which ensures Max has control over his body not the demon.
There is still a catch, thanks to the unfinished Binding, The demon is slowly losing energy. At first he would drain it straight from Max, slowly killing him, till Max Found a way to drain magic energy or life force from other living creatures to Satiate the demon. He slowly trained and looked for more information to free him and his soul.
Vigilantte in the south
He worked around his home for a while hunting Circle members and gathering information on his condition. He even Garnered some attention as a hero (a title he feels he does not deserve), But every lead was a dud. Everything was saying that either it was not possible to seperate him, or he would die in the process. But in a round of good luck he got some information on a big gathering of Circle of Throne... In Paragon City.... He decided this would be his best shot and set out to leave, but not before his friends gave him a new version of his rune Bound suit. This one much lighter allowing him to be faster and much more agile. He took it, said goodbye to his family and left.
Welcome to paragon city
He arrived In Paragon City with little on him ((too be work on in future))
