The primordial evil. An enigma of pure malevolence. An apex predator.
These are but few words that were used to describe an ancient, primeval
demon-like form that has been feeding on the souls of Abyss.
When the Queen of Underdark announced through her messengers that the
source of all what is vile has been captured by their magicians, nobody
could believe it to be true, even though the news came from the highest
authority. But indeed, the sorcerers had finally managed to decipher a
spell that allows capturing demonic forms into the bodies of their hosts for
good and gain control over their actions. The evil essence was captured
into the body of a young drow magician - an expendable resource. It did not
take long before the demon bounded with its host and screaming in pain and
horror, the drow was being torn and shaped into a whole other type of a
beast, leaving only little from his ancestry behind.
The project to create an ultimate hunter, the pinnacle of all soldiers
was quickly launched in order to contain and manipulate the demon, to succumb
into the Queen's will. The prototype was a huge success, at least this is
what the magicians and scientists believed it to be. They had successfully
trained and contained the demon to do their bidding and were about to launch
the conclusive test, where the predator would have been utilizing its
demonic, reptilian-like wings to soar above the nearby villages and cause
havoc in order to show the absolute authority of the Queen and her new
toy.
However, it was a grave mistake, for the demon had only pretended to show
any signs of subjugation and was still free-willed as ever. It murdered the
ones escorting it to the surface and escaped its capturers, leaving nothing
but piles and piles of bodies and dripping blood behind. The primordial
evil, an enigma of pure malevolence, the apex predator was released upon
Serin without being bound to anyone's will... Except for the spirit of the
drow who still co-existed in the same body with the demon and was the only
swaying factor towards more chaotic rather than pure evil behavior of the
malevolent being.
