I just felt like writing a little blurb about the Old Blood general I run in some games. So, tell me what you think.
Balak- The Harbinger of Ruin
Balak is a Saurus of great age, and combat skill. Balak is marked as not a favored son of the Old Ones, but in fact seen as a cursed one, for his entire body is the color of Charcoal. For the Skinks and Saurus who believe the albino to be blessed, it only stands within reason that the opposite would hold true. As it turns out Balak has been present to the destruction of 3 Temple Cities, and it is difficult to dispute.
He now spends most of his time at Tlax, the city of Ghosts. When not called to war, he meditates. For this was the first city he lost, and stands as the sole survivor still alive to this day. He ponders on his failures to save the city from the deamons. The great lizards walks the streets watching the ghosts fight with dim awareness these are the spirits of his spawn kin.
After the death of Tlax, he migrated to Chupayotl, where he remained for a period of time, until the ocean swallowed the city. Even though the waves devoured him, he emerged from the ocean a day later, to migrate again. This time he chose the city of Quetza. Here too, he was present for the emergence of the Skaven, and many of the children of the rat were slaughtered as he fought his way out of the city.
Proving immune to the plagues, he led several armies against the rat men, killing thousands in the hundred year war, causing some Skinks to believe that if he was at the head of an army, the other army was cursed to a worse fate than he. Once the Skaven were banished, he posed a self imposed exile upon himself, returning to the city of Tlax, to wait for years, only summoned to war by the Slann when the need is great.
