November 21, 200718 yr Prologue: I was a child when my father died. A member of the newly formed Varrock guard, he took his post quite seriously. He would stay up long nights making sure that the evil the the King had suppressed behind the gulch, now known as the wilderness,did not break free of the powerful magic encasing it. Evil has many definitions around the land, but if you ask a citizen of Varrock what evil is they would reply: "Are you stupid?"(Or some other remark)"The Wild!" I have lived most of my life in Varrock. When my dad died, protecting the King of Varrock from a renegade group of shades, my Mom hung herself. I remember the day afterwards clearly, even though I was young. Five years old to be precise. I woke up and searched the streets for my mom and dad. There was a commotion around the gallows. I wiggled my way through the crowd, only to see my mother, head in a funny position, her feet hanging inches from the pavement. The rope completely encompassed her neck so tightly, that someone had to get a very short knife to get the rope off. After he cut it, her body fell to the pavement. I ran to the body, crying. I grabbed her head and looked at her face. Her eyes stared at me, and I could have sworn I heard a voice in my head, that sounded like my mothers, saying sorry. My fathers neck was ripped open and part of his spinal cord extended out from the wound. Blood pooled beneath the body. I also looked into his eyes, but all I could see was white, blank eyes. No signs of emotion, no voice in my head, nothing. They were both buried next to each other in the castle garden. I visited them almost everyday until I was nine and the King found a mercenary who would train me for a hefty sum. The king paid it and I was soon used to swinging a sword and started fighting demons with the mercenary when I was thirteen. He knew I had a gift. After my training, at age fifteen, the mercenary and myself joined forces to complete missions for people who needed help. It was a great job, I earned some cash and honed my sword fighting skills a bit more. Soon the mercenary told me I could join the Band of Mercenaries, an underground group that did any thing they were told as long as the money was right. I stayed a year and got bored of the same missions of assassinations, destroying small villages of rogues, and escorting important people through dangerous places. I moved back to Varrock and worked with the king, helping him get some escaped fugitives killed or guarding the dukes when the annual Summer celebration came around. I loved my job, mostly because I got to help people of a political stature, and I was doing what my dad and mom would have wanted me to do. Protect Varrock CHAPTER 1: The shades all stood before a large village. It was called Draynor, and there was a castle being built in the lush forest to the North of the village, a perfect place to find some flesh to eat. Shades were cannibalistic creatures, who unlike vampires, feasted on flesh. They could survive for weeks without flesh but during those weeks, they would slowly lose power until finally they lost so much power that they can't even bear the burden of wearing a cloak and die from its weight. Sounds stupid but its true. Shades could be vicious and deadly creatures if they ate. But if not,well you could always ask the hero Krackov, he got to see one die from the burden of his cloak. He wrote a book on it, named "How I made a Shade die from the weight of his cloak". It was not a bestseller. Most libraries burnt it. It was declared a religion by a couple stupid kids. The library burned them. The shades continued looking at the cheery little village. Look at that old man with the odd glasses. He seems familiar... Someone yelled over from a nearby path. "Where the hell is the jail? I thought they were building one right over here!" The man was a short, balding, fat, and probably drunk person. A young girl of about fourteen, probably his daughter, walked next to him, her long blond hair flowing out behind her. "They said some ancient people made a sewer of some kind or the other beneath where they planned to put it, and the building of the jail has been postponed until Lord Draynor decides if he wants it built somewhere else, or just wants to make due with one of the houses no one lives in." "I heard it was going to be huge." "Apparently not, their paying too much for the construction of that castle so it will be a little one story building with two cells." "Then why the hell make one?" "They need it so if an enemy of the village comes they can throw him in there and interrogate him. There is a jail on the other side of the port to the west and we will use that for people the village does not have huge problems with." The man looked toward the shades and squinted. "You see anything in the trees hun?" "No dad...lay off the beer daddy. Its affecting your brain." "Yeah I guess." He continued to squint in the shades direction as he walked back toward the village. The shades made sure no one was in sight. Then they glided toward the construction site of the manor. About ten men were working. Some put stones in place, some were digging, some were sitting around like typical construction workers. But there was one man who caught the attention of the shades, a man dressed in a flowing cape and wearing a nice dark suit. His dark hair was slicked back. He seemed to be telling the workers what to do. "You," he yelled, pointing at a man sitting and watching the other workers work,"Get off your lazy [wagon] and start putting these blocks in place, if not then you will regret it!" "Yes Lord Draynor!" The man got up and ran toward the other workers. The shades looked at that man in the suit, Lord Draynor, and tried to figure out what was so odd about him. An aura that no human could produce, seemed to hang around him. When the shades looked at the workers, they could see a faint trace of that same aura around them. Draynor turned towards the shades and stared at them. He had to be some kind of magician or otherworldly entity. His stare was not something that would make a shade turn away for he thought he might go blind if he continued to look. Maybe a human would do that, but not a shade. The lead shade kept the mans gaze. His aura seemed to suddenly start to radiate out towards the other workers, as if alerting them. "So shades," Draynor broke the silence,"I see you have come to eat our flesh." The shades continued to watch his aura, trying to figure out what it meant, what kind of aura it really was. The aura wisped around the workers and they turned around to stare at the band of shades. "Now then Shades, shall we dance or shall we all be on our way? You would not like to die here in the middle of the woods, would you?" Draynor turned his back on them and spread his arms before him. "As you can see I am going to build an empire, I have gone through the ranks of the government and made enough money to build a village and a manor, and little do the people of that village know what will happen to them once they settle in! I will build an army!" And then, it hit the shades, bright as day. Those workers were second class vampires, bitten by a first class vampire, Draynor probably, and converted having to do the bidding of the first class. The first class were pure blood vampires. They were born vampires, and will live their whole life as a vampire. They were very powerful beings,but if you had the right materials, they were easy to kill. "So, will you leave, or will we have to shred your only remaining valuable, your soul, to shreds?" The shades stood there and decided. On the other side of the forest, the old drunken man listened in. He had followed the shades, not caring what his daughter said. He heard the whole thing and ran to tell the village when a bolt of electricity hit him in the back. Lord Draynor hovered towards him and looked down at his limp body. The old man could not move. He tried to scream but could not. The vampire fell to the ground and the last thing the man could feel before he passed out were the Vampires smooth hands on his head and the teeth clamping onto his neck. _____________________________________________________________ END OF CHAPTER 1 I finally got my friggin' computer to work and had been writing this for a while so decided I'd write this. I guess its supposed to be my own version of why Draynor Village and other towns had been created. So anyways...I am back.

November 22, 200718 yr Author As I continued to climb the ranks of the Varrock guards, an attack on Varrock made me lose my stature. When I was doing so well, and making the big money, I allowed a bunch of children make the city a living hell. They made a base in the city, and there was apparently one adult there. They were grabbing men from the back streets of Varrock and killing them. Some people thought they were cannibals, some thought they were sent from Zamorak. I found out about them the first murder. I ran through Varrock searching for them. I found a large house, and decided to enter and see what was inside. Nobody resided in the house...but then, I found a trap door hidden under a rug. I went down, not knowing what would happen down there. The scene I saw would be imprinted in my brain for the rest of my life,just like the scene of my mother and father's dead bodies. Men, naked and bleeding, were strapped to chairs. Children, carrying knives,ran around. One of the men held his hand out to me. That hand was chopped off by one of the children. That child met my gaze, and i saw nothing but hatred in his eyes. He knew not to run for me. He knew I would strike him down. My hand was on my swords hilt as I progressed slowly through the room. The dirt floor was moist, and the bodies of the dead hung from a chandelier, hands tied so that the body dangled down. The children stared. I knew they were crazy. I would not turn my back on any of them. I was not going to die. At the other end of the room, I found a door. I opened it and the shock of my adulthood came. There was my master from when I was a child. There he was in bed with a crying woman.There he was raping a woman. He looked at me and walked naked, toward his clothes. I closed the door and let him dress. I was going to kill him like any proper swordsman. "Why are you doing this to these children?" "It is not my fault, I am a mercenary, and it was my job to stay with these children and allow them to drink the blood of humans. In return I got money, and any women they found would be in bed with me." I drew my sword and plunged it into his belly. "You bastard...I don't care if it was a mission...you don't screw with women like that... who the hell are those children?" As blood stained his teeth and gushed out of his wound, around my still plunged sword, he said "It was the council..." More blood, this time dripping from his mouth. "What council?" "Vampires." His mouth foamed, and I drew my sword from his stomach. He fell before me. The woman on the bed drew the blanket around herself and ran from the room. Before I could follow her up the ladder, I felt a sharp pain on the back of my leg. I looked and saw a small kid holding onto a knife, planted in my skin. I kicked backward and the hilt of the knife hit the child, smashing some of his teeth to shards. Suddenly, a bombardment of children, all plunging knives into my legs. I tried to pull myself up the ladder. A sharp pain in my thigh kept me from focusing. A knife was planted in my thigh. I tore it out and threw it at a child climbing the ladder. I barely escaped with my life. The King made me a lower ranked guard after I was out of the hospital facility in the castle. He told me I should have blown them up with an explosive potion, or just killed them with my sword. Apparently, they had got away and were now operating in Falador, killing white knights. I would get my revenge... CHAPTER 2: Garth broke the silence in the small pub. All the men stared as he pulled his cloak off and showed his armor. He was an enforcer. They were a group of people who made sure the law was kept everywhere they went. That sucked that this enforcer decided to come today of all days. "All of you put the ale down and your hands up!" He drew his sword and waved it menacingly in front of him. A drunk man, the strongest man in the pub, wobbled toward the enforcer. "What'cha gonna do if we don'?" The man asked and raised a fist. The enforcer stared at the man menacingly and sheathed his sword. "Well, would you mind sitting down while I solve this problem?" The big man swung at the enforcer. The air in front of the enforcer shimmered and suddenly, he was behind the big guy. "Should not have tried." The enforcer punched the big guy. He flew through the wall and into a farming patch. "Now then," the enforcer said cheerily,"please stop yelling, the neighbors are trying to read and cannot read with you yelling like you are. So please keep quite or you may end up like the big man out there...maybe he'll sprout some sense after he wakes up in that farming patch! Get it?" Most were to drunk to get it while others tried to figure out why someone would make such a stupid joke as that. "Cheerio." The man said and left. .................................................... Kandra watched the enforcer from a wall on the other side of the pub. She was going to kill that idiot. For what he did to her. Kandra was eighteen when she commited a murder. She killed an old man who witnessed her stealing something. And then a year later she killed another person. And it continued for years. And then he came along and seduced her. Enticed her. Acted like they were lovers. The day they were supposed to get married he arrested her. He was a nasty man. Seduce a girl and be her lover for months, and then at the wedding, arrest her in front of her friends and family? It was embarrassing. She continued to watch him. She thought about killing him right their, but that was to risky, to many witnesses would see it. She would follow him and find a secluded little spot to kill him at. Her thoughts were cut short when some unseen force shoved her over the wall. She fell to her feet. She did not know much but she knew enough to keep her alive. There he was standing there laughing. "Hello my sweet girl, how have yo been doing since last we met?" "You..." "Me? Well I have been having a jolly good time with the enforcers. Just last week I..." "Shut up you chauvinistic bastard!" "Wow...a feisty little one. How am I chauvinistic?" "You seduced me so you could trap me when I least expected. I don't think you plan weddings with men and arrest them at the wedding do you?" "No I don't, but it was a good plan, wasn't it? It worked." "I will kill you...you made my family hate me. My friends walked away from me without a word. Two years in prison and no one sent me a letter...and why? Because you had to do it in front of my family!" "You think you can kill me? I could easily defeat you." "Try me." "I have...it was good." "You sick little..." And Garth took that moment to conjure a spell and direct it a her. It smashed into her stomach and sent her flying into the wall. She passed out. "I am sorry, but it was the only way." Garth walked away and did not look back. ............................................... Kandra awoke to see a face. "I know you!" She began to get to her feet. "You should. I am Lord Draynor. And I have a proposition for you..."

November 22, 200718 yr Author Interlude 1: VAMPIRE ORIGINS The vampire is a being of pure evil. It's only purpose in life is to suck blood and turn human souls into lifeless vessels. The humans, in turn, get a blood lust. This leads to whole populations getting turned into these zombie like creatures. The first recorded report of Vampire activity was at the end of the god war. Zamorack, as the myth goes, brought one of these creatures down in order for him to get payback from Sarradomin. This one creature converted a whole village into lifeless beings. The great hero, Zuklos, fought these vampires. He could not kill them in any way. As he fell to the ground, defeated by the vampires, he pulled a holy simple of Sarradomin from his breast pocket and clutched in his hands. As the vampires came down to suck his blood, they saw the symbol and seemed to shrivel. They ran away. Soon, the lands to the east were dying. The vampires set a council there. The council has never been seen. The building they resided in was seen by many, but not the council itself. And then, a wealthy man, named Lord Draynor appeared in front of the council building and destroyed it with one arm raised. The place blew apart and bodies were found in the ruins. They later found out that they were human bodies. But the people were too late. Lord Draynor, now head of the council, showed up in the lands to the west and built a village. This was the first time a vampire built a village specifically for the purpose of making an army. The world would fear him. But some hero's would stand against him and his army...
