Silverlight

Born into a family of nobles, Eckhard came to the world with a golden spoon, and parents who loved and cared for him. His parents were  Quincys of reputable lineages and their union was one well spoken and sort out for, quickly becoming the target of envy. They became the creme de la creme of their social environment however, for 10 years they couldn’t produce an issue till he(Eckhard) was born.

He was quickly deemed a blessing from the gods or a rare germ who’s feet had come to cleanse the earth. His very existence brought joy back to the home of the Thorn family, but it wasn’t untill he was 20 did they find the opposite to be the case.

The boy was born as cold as ice and might have as well had blue blood to match his blue eyes. His friend’s whom considered him a rare specie as the only true blood among them, still loathed him and only followed him out of fear of his parents influence. His father who was a revered general in the army, drilled him in the ways of the Quincy from a very young age and always occasionally read him the tales of the Supreme one as bed time stories. He’d known so much about the race before he could completely spell his name, but for some reason he never saw his father flaunt his pride in public gatherings.

As a child Eckhard got what ever he demanded for and was midly annoying considering he cared little about the troubles people around him suffered for his demands. He however was a prodigy who’s skill began to blosom even as a child. He knew little about the world beyond his circle of family and friends and most of the time spent his days knotting arrows and stringing bows.

As a tenanger he quickly became more arrogant but mostly to strangers he knew nothing about. He’d rather skin a pig with his hands than accept a friend request from anyone he considered lower than him, or unworthy. He quickly became a lonely tenanger but none of this mattered when he could get his hands on anything he wanted, especially his favourite play toy (a bow).

With time, his knowledge of the world slightly improved though he was more obsessed with becoming a general just like his father. He always heard stories about how his father won many battles, conquered many foes and claimed many lives. He also had news about his prowess as a Quincy and this made him eager to leave home to join the battle field. This though, didnt settle well with his father who for some reasons only wanted him to focus on protecting the family.

As time passed Eckhard came to notice how disturbed his father was whenever he mentioned the Quincy’s pride and the power they possessed. “We are the star of the four realms, revered among all races and under the protection of the shinigami royal force”. However, none of this were true not in the slightest as Eckhard came to understand they were merely in hinding, afraid of what the world would do to them if they exposed their true nature.

His father was a coward and so was his mother and for this young Eckhard left home to fend for himself.

At the age of 20 Eckhard skill stood out enough to be recognized by the higher arms of the quincy race, who called him in. However, after he was summoned to the wandenreich castle to become part of its force, he got news of a slaughter event brought upon his family by the shingami race..

Returning home he heard his family harbored rebellious plans and materials and thus were a threat to the four realms. However he knew all this were lies and immediately went on a rampage where he killed all those(shinigamis) involved in his family massacre. His uncle, aunty and their four children who sold his family out were all killed in the night of the red moon. A day which marked his second birth. His hunger for blood couldn’t end there and till date he still holds a deep rooted grudge against the Shinigami race and anyone in support of them.
