𝖓𝖆𝖒𝖊. dameia. 𝖘𝖕𝖊𝖈𝖎𝖊𝖘. sun high elf. 𝖈𝖑𝖆𝖘𝖘. cleric of lathander.
↪ traveling as a cleric of lathander dameia met an eye catching human in a small tavern. they spent the night together, an act that would turn out to have significant consequences for dameia later on. despite discovering that she was with child she continued to travel till she could no longer & settled down within the small town of daggerford. it was there that her son was born though from the first glance she took at him she knew something was deeply wrong.
instead of matching her warm almost sunny appearance her son's skin was a pallid white, lacking anything close to a healthy glow. his eyes pale white with the only indication of where he was looking being his dark pupils. she tried to ignore her lingering suspicions but was unable to shake them entirely. her son behaved entirely abnormally for an infant. almost silent, rarely crying out lest he truly needed something. suspicions turned into distrust, distrust into fear, till dameia was unable to continue on parenting her only child.

𝖓𝖆𝖒𝖊. cazna duskryn. 𝖘𝖕𝖊𝖈𝖎𝖊𝖘. loth s worn drow. 𝖈𝖑𝖆𝖘𝖘. wild magic sorcerer.
↪ forced to flee menzoberranzan due to a failed assassination attempt cazna found herself settling in the small unassuming town of daggerford to avoid catching too much attention. at first she was treated with suspicion, however as time passed the townsfolk became indifferent to her presence.
years into her stay she became aware of rumors surrounding a child that had been left behind at the village, the mother seeming to have fled the town in the night. no one would take the child in due to it's unusual appearance & rumors swirling about town. cazna took the child in, seeing them as a chance to pass on her skills to another now that she could no longer return home to her own family.

continued from x
the cultists being terrified of their presence certainly had its advantages, however for the moment that little fact could do nothing to remedy the situation they were currently in. his sister seemed content to toy with them for the moment, much to their annoyance. ❝ if i have learned anything about my bloodkin is that it will do as they please. ❞ given that their bloodkin could shift their form so easily it would present quite the challenge in avoiding her.
they had other matters to attend to as well, specifically dealing with a certain lordling hiding behind his automaton army within the city. ❝ perhaps for the evening we should find an inn. ❞
orin's presence set their teeth on edge, a brewing storm of anger & betrayal was growing within them. they should have seen such a betrayal coming, they had been foolish to assume that their bloodkin would take their father's choice in stride. perhaps once malus would have been proud of being their father's chosen, but now all they felt was the binds around them tightening. was it too much to wish for freedom ? perhaps.
turning their pale gaze to @we4ved they spoke softly ❝ the question is should we make for the lower city or remain in the outer one ? ❞ either way they'd be dealing with a crowd of people, but the outer city offered more reputable services.

her words pull him from his thoughts, strangely grounding despite their harshness. for a moment an image is conjured in his mind of an older drow standing over him as he sorted herbs. a name comes to mind cazna. just as quickly as the memory surfaces it vanishes into the abyss of his mind leaving him rattled. he loathed how little he remembered of his life before. always left with nothing but short flashes of memories with very little context to explain them.
❝ no, not a servant & you are right this is my mess i must live with it. ❞ he murmurs, already dreading the idea of having to explain this to the rest of the group. he is certain some would leave him, after all how could he ask them to trust him when this is what he did as he slept ? ❝ there is no meaning to this, i've tried to understand why but what can be understood from this butchery ? ❞
malus knew well that he was not a good person. killing came a bit too easily to them, be it goblins, cultists, anything they came across he had little issue with dispatching. presently he felt a little remorse, at least in the sense that this had been a waste of a life cut short in the name of what ? murder ? he half expected their strange butler to appear, though perhaps the creature was waiting till they were alone again.
either way this was a problem that was not going away, a problem that easily could cost him the companions who he traveled with. ❝ there is more to this, there must be. ❞ he moves then to where his pack lay next to his bedroll. quietly he searches for the shovel he occasionally used to find buried cashes of resources. now it had a much more grim duty. ❝the first time this happened to me there was no warning, just as there wasn't any now. some nights i sleep & nothing happens, others i wake to this. ❞ he a pale hand flecked with blood gestured to the remains on the ground. ❝ something is compelling me to do this, no matter how hard i fight it. ❞
the night warden knows death; knows blood, too - the result of an education well received; an eager hand - for before minthara baenre had been anything ( before she had known what it meant to be a baenre, before she had been a soldier, before she had understood power, before the title of war mistress had been hers ), she had been a weapon. honed, sharpened; never a girl or a child or anything so soft and weak - the night warden had killed before, and in the name of every god she has abandoned ( in the name of every god who has used her ), she will kill again. and she knows that if those in the party are not the same as she, they will be; soon.
for a moment, all minthara sees is red ( feels, smells ); the sharp tang of iron flavouring the air with a scent so thick she can taste it - the aftermath of a battle well fought. a cursory glance tells her this was no war - but a slaughter. senseless, messy; a blade just as practiced as her own with no purpose. no care, and the stench of it settles - something older, something deeper - bile churning in her stomach when the night warden realises the scent thick and foul of blood is coming from him - now cooling. there is a memory there; pooling in the depths of her shattered mind. a pale being with paler eyes; and that same god-sick smell. it sets minthara on edge, fear cutting through her faster than any weapon ever could.
her hands twitch; instinctively going for the shafts of her maces, red eyes warily fixated on him - and the mess he'd left behind. minthara baenre knows butchery when she sees it ( has done it, too; wielded by the absolute - faces and names all lost to bloodthirst the night warden still does not know was her own or another's ); incidents in menzoberranzan, perpetrators they had cut down -- looking at him now, her eyes narrow; footsteps circling at the edge of shadows.
" do you think of me as your servant? i assure you, were i to handle any remains, they would be your own. " the night warden's voice is rough, sharp - irritation pinching her expression as she looks on to malus. the night warden had always felt a thrill in the finality of a kill - in the strength of her own conviction, her faith. this is different - a lack of control, slipping --- minthara baenre has been there, understands it better than most; and the irritation fades, replaced with a somber, grim expression; the hard set of her jaw, the grinding of her teeth.
" has the parasite eaten what is left of your brain? you cannot hope to wish or will this away, mal'ai. our focus on the fight ahead and whatever passes for trust is all that we have in our war against the absolute. without it, we will turn on each other - and this camp will resemble the carcass you have butchered. "

𝕸𝖊𝖙𝖆 : on murder.
this is something that i know goes against canon for the durge but it is something that i am firm on with my portrayal. malus pre-lobotomy did not just kill for the sake of killing per say. getting a quick & easy kill for the sake of simple murder has never interested him, instead he prefers to plot & craft a plan on how to go about his killings.
he would kill to gain access to resources, to further his agendas, he would kill for clients, in short more mercenary work than simple murder. he learned to be like this from his mentor cazna duskryn who hailed from menzoberranzan.
this goes against bhaal's wishes as bhaal does not care for the finer details, rather just wanting muder for the sake of murder. there were times where bhaal would influence malus to commit murders as he saw fit, much like we see in the durge's story where he kills a bard while sleeping.
these episodes left malus feeling rattled, frustrated, & desperate to find a way to make them end. malus was very much stuck between staying loyal to his father & having agency over his own person.

not me thinking about the group finally meeting orin only to double take because malus does bare a resemblance to his sister one that really can't be ignored either.

For a moment a strange expression comes over your face. A vague little smile. A brief look of bliss. Is it the thought of death that fascinates you so? Transfigures you?

ABILITY CHECK - history / rolled 14 + 4 to history : 18.
with the lock successfully picked the heavy tome in his hands fell open, dust scattering into the air from the motion. pale eyes glance over the worn pages, a slight frown marring their features as they read. it took a moment, but he realized what he was looking at. ❝ dead gods. ❞ he murmured softly, ever aware of the strange being that they'd inadvertently freed from its tomb moving about in the main hall of the crypt.
he turns slightly so @rimerotting could see what he was holding. as they flipped the pages their eyes settled onto the last entry written within. whatever had been written there was too damaged by time to make out however something about this bothered him.
pale fingers moved over the page as they tried to make out any further details, however the script was too damaged. ❝ three gods grouped together ... ❞ he spoke without realizing he was voicing his thoughts aloud. despite the fragmenting of his mind the answer supplied itself suddenly to him. ❝ the dead three. ❞
just saying the words aloud filled him with a strange feeling of familiarity. carefully shutting the book he slipped it into his pack before turning to his companion. ❝ is it too morbid to ask if we could camp here for the evening ? ❞ he was not bothered by their surroundings however he knew the others might be. ❝ it is growing late & i wish to see if there is anything else hiding around here. ❞
#( i know the temple comes before the druid camp but i am just gonna say that they explored it later on post goblin camp )#( i hope this is okay ! )

❛ they found a body by the river. ❜
their first reaction was to pause, pale eyes widening just slightly at the news before their features were shifted into a neutral expression. they had been in this tiny river side town just one night so far, but apparently not without incident. malus was almost certain that this particular body was not one that he was responsible for, but he wouldn't know for certain till he saw the state the body was in.
he'd learned through unfortunate circumstances that any time he'd lost control while sleeping there was a considerable mess left behind, along with specific markings in blood he'd yet to decipher. that & the lack of the creature that called itself his butler led him to believe that for once he was not at fault for this particular incident. still, it didn't have him relaxing.
❝ is that so ? ❞ he is stuck trying todecipher what this statement actually meant. was it @ofweave simply informing him of the strange activity in town or could this possibly lead into a discussion about past incidents ? they were not prepared to have the latter option become a reality just yet.
tentatively he continues speaking ❝ is this your way of suggesting we should help ? ❞ he could already hear astarion's protests over this matter should he decide to lend assistance.
