Name: Rodaal Dövmek
Age: 62
Species: Halfbreed (Demon/Human)
Class: Sorcerer
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Occupation: General of Dagalûr
Appearance:
His robes are black, though they share a theme with the Western Sorcerers, since he came from an order that had spawned from them. Parts of his wardrobe are made of leather, for both travel and battle.
He wears on his waist, a double bladed version of John Smith's Saber, being proficient with a double bladed weapon. He was the first test subject for this weapon, and he was the one who discovered the few flaws of the weapon, though he trained himself to be adept at its use nonetheless.
Personality:
Rodaal Dövmek was little more than a being of pure hatred and evil, thanks to his harsh, severe training under his Master, Darth Sidious. However, he was not totally heartless, granting those he felt worthy of his respect quick and painless deaths. He was even capable of some level of emotional connection with others, feeling respect, admiration, perhaps even a level of attachment towards his master, despite his torturous years under Sidious, likely because he knew nothing else.
Though even with this torturous lifestyle, he still developed a bond of camaraderie with his fellow apprentices, thus leading to his style of leadership: They fight together, they train together, they celebrate together, they share defeat together. He keeps that camaraderie with his troops and his officers.
In battle, Rodaal is a ruthless and implacable enemy, yet is possessed of an arrogant urge for self improvement, to be the best. His skill level left him overconfident, and he would lower his guard when he felt an opponent was no longer a threat.
Unlike many Dark Lords, including his Master, Rodaal never really taunted his opponents. Instead, he only gave advice when he dueled them, perhaps some part of him wanting to take on an apprentice to teach. But this would only prove to enrage his opponents, causing him to end their life.
Among his fellow Generals, he is often serious, and calculating, despite his appearances of a brute otherwise. But when with his men, be they Dwarf, Human, Corrupted Elves, or Orcs, he would often act... Differently. If they were victorious in battle, Rodaal would often celebrate and drink with his men (We hear he's quite the singer of many drinking songs), but when they experienced defeat, then he would stand to be punished along with his men, though he would never tolerate insubordination, punishing the men responsible himself.
History:
Like many of Dagalûr's followers and Generals, not much is known of Darth Rodaal, not even his true name. Not even Dagalûr knows of his true past, as Rodaal only believes the present to be relevant. What is known of Rodaal, however, is that he was taken in as a child into a dark sect of the Western Sorcerers that had separated from them long ago, to practice in the Darker aspects of Magic.
His life before serving Dagalûr was a painful one, as he was tortured by his Master, Darth Sidious, as well as trained in the arts of both the sword and Dark Magic. After forty years of torture and training, Darth Sidious deemed him ready to be a Dark Lord, and take an apprentice of his own. Sidious presented suitable apprentices before Rodaal, but Rodaal had different plans. Slaying Sidious, he also slayed the potential apprentices, leaving the Temple of the Dark Sorcerers in a soup of blood and body parts.
He made his way to a village that Dagalûr had sentenced to be eradicated. When his troops got there, they saw a bloodbath of men, women, and even children falling under Rodaal's wrath. Dagalûr's soldiers chose to fight him, a mistake that cost them greatly as he slaughtered every single one of them.
It was only when Dagalûr himself came upon the scene that Rodaal would be defeated. And, in turn, it gained Rodaal's allegiance to Dagalûr. For the next twenty-six years he would serve Dagalûr as one of his Generals, and he has yet to disappoint.
Family Tree:
Deceased (He was ordered to kill them all, and so he did.)
Fears:
-Death
-Dagalûr's Fall
Goals:
-Take on an apprentice
-Make sure Dagalûr succeeds
-To have every enemy fall before him
Other:
-He has a weakness for Panthros cuisine
-He often calls anyone above his station "Milord", "Lord", "Dark Lord", or "Master".
