## History

### Age of Chaos: 1987 - 2005

Born into a family of Slavers, Leoric had a pristine childhood full of wealth and fortune. His Older Brother Erendor was regarded as a great man by the upper-class of Prysmos, but Leoric knew first hand his Brother's cruel nature. Not wanting to be recognized the same way his Brother was, Leoric freed a bunch of captured slaves from his family's encampment, following them to the nearby Kingdom of New Valarak. When he arrived, he would learn that a band of warriors were setting out to fight against the Darkling Lords, a group Leoric had grown quite familiar with. Volunteering to join the fight, Leoric would become famous for his skills with a whip, which many soon realized was connected to his family history.

### Age of Magic: 2005 - Present Day

After the defeat of Lord Darkar, Leoric learned that his Brother had become the new Monarch, making him a member of New Valarak's Royal Family. Due to his Valour in the field of combat, Leoric was selected to be a member of a group of warriors by the wizard Merklynn. This group would be given the name Spectral Knights for their mastery of Light Magic. Leoric, due to his Royal title, would be selected as the Leader of the group, a task that he proved to be proficient at.

During this time, Leoric would also spend tome with his Nephew, Sky. He would form an almost fatherly bond with him, teaching Sky basic Magic and Swordsmanship.

Throughout the past 16 years, Leoric has had numerous run-ins with the Darkling Lords, most notably their leader, Darkstorm, who Leoric views as his Arch-Rival. They have come close to death through their numerous battles, barely surviving the critical blows they at each other with both their Weapons and their Magic.
