Melvar J Pistachio

== Background ==
Melvar was born from the corpse of his lynched mother underneath a hanging tree, where he was left to die alone in a mire of blood and afterbirth. A mercenary group lead by a man named Sundict eventually happened upon the grisly site, presuming the infant to be dead. When the baby began wailing, to the surprise of the mercenaries, an acquaintance of Sundict, Sundict's wife, immediately took to the child and came to his aid. Sundict allowed the woman to keep Melvar for her own personal consolation, despite the circumstances of Melvar's birth being considered ominous by his cohorts. Three years later, Melvar's surrogate mother contracted the plague, dying as he watched on.
Under Sundict's tutelage, Melvar began honing his swordsmanship at six years of age, and joined the mercenary's band three years later, looking up to his leader as a father figure of sorts.
When Sundict lost his leg in battle, his relationship with Melvar immediately deteriorated. Melvar was subjected to various forms of degradation before Sundict eventually made an attempt on his life. Possessed of the notion Melvar was the reason for his misfortune, Heavily disheartened by this revelation, Melvar retaliated and killed his assailant – the closest thing to a father he had ever known. Consequently attacked by Sundict's men and branded a father killer, he fled the encampment with aggressors on his tail, eventually running into a dead end and being shot off a cliff side. From his high fall and a bout with a pack of wolves below, he fell unconscious, eventually being discovered by and enlisted as a child soldier in another mercenary band that happened upon him.
=== Meeting the Band of the Owl ===
During the siege of a military garrison defended by the Band of the Owl, Melvar joins the fray alongside a mercenary band and narrowly defeats an enemy leader named *****, lowering the enemy's morale and allowing for the fort's capture. In his travels, he is attacked by Band of the Owl mercenaries seeking to claim his reward and exact revenge for his earlier interference. He easily dispatches most of them until he is met by Griffith, who quickly incapacitates the swordsman and has him brought to the band's encampment.
Waking several days later, Melvar is given by Griffith the option to join the band, though he promptly refuses, instead opting to challenge Griffith to a duel. He stipulates that the White Owl can lay claim to him in the advent of defeating him in combat. Harboring a vested interest in Melvar, Griffith agrees and the two engage in a sensational battle, with the White Owl ultimately defeating the swordsman and enlisting him as a member of the Band of the Owl.
=== Encountering a Demon ===
In three years time, Melvar is promoted to the Band of the Owl's raiders captain and, for their efforts, the band is formally recruited by Uraka, At a later point, amid seizing a Tudor stronghold, the Band of the Owl finds itself at a standstill while making its final push into the fortress, with roughly 7 of Melvars' soldiers being slaughtered by a single enemy burrowed within the inner citadel. Fed up with these results, Melvar ventures into the citadel himself, where he meets the monstrous apostle and engages in battle with the demon. Initially taken aback by his opponent's overwhelming aura and daunted from parrying the Demons's bone-rattling strikes, Melvar ultimately gambles his life on one swing, and with it, lands a gashing blow on the Demon is only further excited by the injury – having after 300 years finally found a human capable of injuring him – and subsequently assumes his behemoth released form.
Petrified by the Demon's transformation and completely outclassed, Melvar is thrashed around and nearly crushed by the apostle, before Griffith and Band of the Owl reinforcements intervene. When Griffith comes to Melvar's aid, the Demon blocks the two's path of escape, forcing them to execute a pincer movement on the apostle, in which both of them deal substantial damage to the demon. In retaliation, the Demons tail whips Griffith into a column, though he immediately ceases his onslaught upon sighting Griffith's Crimson necklace. The beast leaves Melvar with a prophecy, warning the swordsman of an inescapable death that shall befall him should Griffith's dream ever collapse, before flying off.
== Morning Departure ==
One month later, having aided tremendously in the Band of the Owl's success, Melvar finally sets out to leave the band, unable to cling to Griffith's dream any longer. On the morning of his departure the Band's members intercept him as he leaves Arrakis, with the latter two taking him to a tavern to query his reasoning. There, melvar reveals he wants to attain a dream of his own, and stand beside Griffith as a man of equal vision. before Melvar leaves he is intercepted at the outer wall of the city by Griffith and several other band members.
Griffith questions if Melvar truly intends to leave the band, to which Melvar confirms his intent. Rattled by this affirmation, Griffith draws his sword and demands that Melvar duel for his freedom as he did three years prior. Unmoved by this antagonism,Melvar draws his sword and clashes with Griffith, breaking the White Owl's blade in a single swing and leaving his former leader kneeling in defeat.
On the night of his departure, at his campfire, Melvar is met by a Mysterious, who warns of an "Eclipse" set to take place in a year's time – "A torrent of madness, a tempest of death for which the human body could never atone" – before vanishing into the night.
=== A Year After ===
Following Melvar's return to the Band Melvar finds out that Griffith is imprisoned in arrakis, a rescue team is formed to free Griffith, and in three days, they infiltrate Arrakis through the sewers, the group is able to make their way to the ancient Tower where Griffith is said to be held. After a deep descent to the lowest prison cell beneath the tower, the party members are appalled at the sight of a crippled, flayed Griffith – a shell of his former self. Overcome with emotion, Melvar hugs his fallen comrade – unaware of Griffith's feeble attempt to choke him – before mercilessly killing the tower jailer responsible for the White Falcon's ravaged state.
== Eclipse ==
At the Arrakis's border region, the remnant band members come to terms with the gravity of Griffith's injuries and discuss their futures.Without warning, Griffith, having mustered enough strength to commandeer his resting carriage, flees from the area, with Melvar and the other band members in pursuit of him. When Griffith wrecks the carriage and lands in a lake, Melvar and the others rush to his location. As soon as Melvar reaches him, however, the mercenaries are all whisked away to an alternate dimension by Griffith's returned Crimson Necklace
Numerous anthropomorphic beings welcome the band members to the nocturnal feast they refer to as the "Eclipse", much to Melvar's shock. Four profound entities emerge from within the dimension afterward, introducing themselves as the Orignal 4 Demons and revealing the purpose of the Eclipse: for Griffith to offer his comrades as sacrifices in order to join their divine ranks, as has been preordained. Proving to indeed be an inevitability, Griffith, having weighed his options as an invalid and reaffirmed his dream and ambition, offers his former comrades as sacrifices, therefore triggering the branding and unilateral slaughter of the band members.
Melvar fights relentlessly against the ravenous demons, bloodlusted by the merciless feasting on his friends. Eventually, he is restrained by one of the demons biting down on his left arm, as his Comrades gets murdered by the reborn Griffith – rechristened Segra – who proceeds to Kill his Comrades. Even after severing his arm and managing to free himself, the struggler is immediately pinned to the ground and forced to witness his People die all while the restraining demon slowly gouges his right eye. After Segra finishes with the Comrades the Mysterious man from a year ago breaches the Eclipse, proceeding to retrieve Melvar and, evade Segra's space-distorting attacks, and escape the temporal junction with Melvar
After roughly a month of training back at Arrakis, Melvar sets his sights on combating demonkind, brandishing a new set of armor along with an artificial arm in place of his severed left arm. When his newly-forged sword breaks, Melvar wields long-forsaken Dragon Slayer and with it eliminates the first Demon in his hunt. Realizing the Dragon Slayer suited him better than any normal sword ever would, he retains the enormous broadsword and embarks on a war against the inhumans.
