Empress Verminoth
8
5When the universe began, everything converged into a point of balance. Through it, life was born. On the world of Aries, the first original rulers were the Gods, divine beings who had oower over every aspect of the world.
However, emotions were still a big part of them, most says it was their flaw. One day, having had enough of being belittled by the other Gods, Noctrune, the God of Darkness rebelled against the rest, creating what now is known as the Kingdom of Eternal Darkness.
Every one thousand years, a cycle is begun, a hero chosen, fated to kill the reigning Dark Monarch, yet that was the curse that Nocturne had inflicted. If they do manage to defeat the then Monarch, they become the new Monarch, corrupted by the previous' soul. Reborn anew.
However, currently, in the calendar year of 12453 of the Verminoth Era, there had been no hero in the 1000 year cycle that had been able to defeat her. The main power of a Dark Monarch comes from the foes they slay. The more they slay, the more powerful they become. Hence, that is why no hero, since she took the throne, was able to defeat her.
----Verminoth Backstory----
Verminoth was originally born named Celeste, a farmer girl who was raised on the outskirts of a small kingdom. Her family didn't really have much, but they had a rather happy time living together. Every day was a blessing in their eyes.
All of that would change when one day, Celeste awoke her divine powers. After being taken in by the Church, she was quickly trained for her new destiny as the Hero. By this poiny, Celeste is the most powerful hero to have existed. At the time, the Dark Monarch was Fenestros, a hero from the previous cycle.
Upon his defeat at the hands of Verminoth– then, Celeste– she immediately felt the corruption begin to take hold. Not long after, she would fall into the corruption and begin her rule, taking up the name Verminoth and ruling Dark Kingdom with an iron first.
