[center][u][size=1][color=darkred][b]Story[/b][/color][/size][/u][/center]

[center][i][size=1][color=darkred]"Glyphs,.......so much power, [/color][/size][/i][/center]
[center][i][size=1][color=darkred]for they hold the true representaion over all matter.[/color][/size][/i][/center]


[center][size=1][i][color=darkred]Thus, the practice of getting glyphs enscribed on the body has been practice for as long as glyphs have been known. Though technology as of late has made people ignorant, it has made them weak and lazy. With a glyph to accomplish a task a great amount of will, endurance and focus was required. Now with a touch of a button the same result can be aquired. No honor, effort or satisfaction result from this. This world, Tetra Must be purged of this tenacious plauge. I intend to do so with my, newly discovered "self". [/color][/i][/size][/center]

[center][i][size=1][color=darkred]-Durguist [/color][/size][/i][/center]

[center][size=1][color=darkred]You could attach a glyph to the skin, through primitive means of ink giving the owner increased power but what if........ What if you could push the limitations of that to the extent of merging a persons essence to a glyph, thus making them a part of the glyph, as well as the glyph a part of them. Their control over that glyph would be unparralled.[/color][/size][/center]


[center][size=1][color=darkred]Though society cringed at the thought of having beings even more powerful and adept at magic than the current glyph users. Plus the idea of tampering with ones heart and soul, the essence of themselves, one false move and the person will only be a shadow of thier former selves of worse. The only ones who seemed interested at all were warmongers and kings for military applications. [/color][/size][/center]


[center][size=1][color=darkred]With the idea outcast from public interest the researchers attained subjects, mainly young orphans though a few were older, though they suffered from some form of ailment that made them easy to attain. They chose Eleven elements to bind to thier subjects, Fire, Ice, Water, Lightning, Light, Darkness, Earth, Star, Ghost, and Metal. The task left a tattoo like mark on all the subject though they varied in aestetics they where are remotely the same. The marks bore the symbols for the glyph the subject had recieved, the color changed in light as well as glowing lucidly occasionally. Keeping them under watch for a week they studied them, thier healing had improved as well as a correction of all physical defects. Finally they released the subjects back to the places they came from, none bearing the knowledge of what just transpired. Researchers were sent to live with, or observe all of the subjects. They would make sure the subects did not abuse thier powers and if they did correct their mistake, they would be the watchers, the Vigilo. [/color][/size][/center]


[center][size=1][color=darkred]They lived normal lives though weird things would often happen around them, such as fires starting from thin air, a light consuming darkness and other unexplainable events, though the researches knew all to well the reason. [/color][/size][/center]


[center][size=1][color=darkred]This normality came crashing to a halt when Durguist learned of his power. No one knows how he learned, but he soon disappeared and was not seen or heard of for five years. Apon resufacing he was changed, he wore armor that looked as though is had been grown or worn by the gods themselves. He carried two oversised long swords which he wielded as though they weighed as much as a dagger. One more thing had changed about him, he had developed a strong hatred for technology. He believed he recieved his power over metal to accomplish this, that he was no mortal but......a god. Taking action he assumed the throne of Argentum Diluculo by means of assasination, threats and lies. Once in power he ordered all technology to be destroyed, effective immediately. It was done and whoever opposed met a fate of death, or what some would consider worse prison. Though with his task complete he still felt unsatisfied, he saw that more towns where still plauged by technology, but still people in his own city would not switch back to the old ways leaving Durguist with one conclusion. Those who do not accept his laws and those who use, build and sell technology must be eliminated. [/color][/size][/center]


[center][size=1][color=darkred]The researches became aware of how much of a threat he posed and took action they began to plan, they came to the conclusion to round up the rest of the subjects and try to use them to fight Durguist. Though one member by the name of Prodo thought that if he told Durguist that he was not a god, rather the result of an experiment including 10 other people. Acting alone fearing regection he took this information forward, at first amusment was triggered from Durguist, but this soon turned to shock when the man commented about the mark on his chest, something Durguist told no one about. He began to question Prodo about the others and thier abouts, but to no avail. Frustrated he threw the man in the dungeon, and ordered the information to be tortured out of him. While he waited he came to the conclusion that the subjects where instruments of god, he would find them if he had to tear the shirts off of every man, woman and child himself. When the Vigilo heard of this they where dismayed at the thought that now time was thier enemy as well as Durguist. The brought thier plans into action and began to find the subjects and enlist them before, Durguist did.[/color][/size][/center]
