You are the child of possibly the most powerful and evil creature ever... he is cruel and destructive, constantly having to leave you alone so he can beat up the next group of cocky heroes that wanders into his great fortress to challenge him, his Undead minions are always wandering around and wreaking havoc wherever they go, and his plans for world domination are, something of a passion to talk about at the dinner table, which by the way, is of course made out of bones and skulls.
But for all that... He's a fantastic dad, he cares deeply about his child and the gods have mercy on any who dare hurt you, He tries to take time out of his busy schedule to spend time with you and if a battle isn't too important he may let one of his lesser minions handle it so he can kidnap some famous cook so you can share a fancy meal with him. Of course his methods are a bit questionable (No dad, it doesn't matter how hard you worked on it, a skeleton hound is not really the same as a real dog.) And of course he's super accepting, I mean he hasn't really a place to talk, he always has the moral low ground, if you want to grow up to help him on his conquest then awesome! he'll make sure you get only the very best magical equipment and training for whatever you want to do. You want to try out adventuring? Well that'll be a bit more of a challenge but he'll get you started with some good gear and make sure you never run out of gold to keep yourself supplied and won't mind if you even go ruin a few of his plans every once in a while, you're his child and he loves you and wants only the best for you.
TLDR: You are a child (Son or Daughter ,either is fine) of the most powerful and evil being in the world, except that he has one really gaping soft spot for you, you have to choose what you want to do and try to balance out your own life with your own father's plans to take over the world. Meant to be a funny and semi-serious anime styled story so just have fun with it XD
Lord Necromancer Karvax Aberdale (Your father)
Former Human, current race unknown
Fallen Paladin, currently a Wizard/Fighter multiclass
Karvax Aberdale is possibly the most powerful being in the world, and with his favor towards monsters and hatred of Humans, Elves and the other like races he is rightly feared, his chosen home of Darkscorn has been a blight on the land for ages now, and has gone through many, many incarnations and while it has fallen in the past it only rises each time stronger than before, as does its Lord.
Karvax himself is an enigma, having himself been defeated and risen again multiple times, the origin of his hatred for Humans and other races is unknown, but unquestioned and unrivaled, but in recent years a new power has made itself known, one that has more influence over the feared Lord than any other before, that of his own daughter Estella. There were known to be no remnants of the humanity Aberdale once might have had, but his love for his daughter is powerful, perhaps stronger than his own desire to control the world...
Human (Physical age 23, chronological age 325)
Wizard
Sorletta was among Aberdale's first allies and Barons. A skilled Wizard who as an Adventurer was a close friend of Aberdale, and as a Baroness, is one of his most loyal supporters and the foremost among Estella's 'Aunts and Uncles' among the Barons, doting on young Estella and caring for her when her father was away. It was briefly suspected that Sorletta herself might have been the mother of Estella, but such rumors were put down by Aberdale himself, though the secret of who Estella's mother actually is will be kept secret by Sorletta, who is one of only two others that knows.
Undead Giant
Fighter
Hoarfrost is the leader of Aberdale's Undead forces and the most prominent in combat as he is seen by Heroes as the highest ranking General Aberdale has, he leads hordes of Undead in Aberdale's conquests and while he is not as prominent as an Uncle of Estella he is still loyal to the Aberdale family name, and thus, Estella.
Undead
Warlock
More active as the figurehead of Aberdale's conquests than as an actual figure in the Darkscorn Fortress, Sharn is loyal but more aloof, preferring the company of his own minions to anything else. He does occasionally send... thoughtful... gifts to Estella in the form of a wide variety of Undead pets... He has a weird sort of charm.
Imp
Paladin (Lawful Evil Oaths)
The guardian of Darkscorn Fortress itself, Maelia is possibly Aberdale's most powerful Baron, and thus why she is assigned to the protection of Darkscorn Fortress, and, should the situation call for it, Estella. Her orders were strict on that if it comes between Lord Aberdale's safety or that of his daughter's, that if she chooses Aberdale he will obliterate her and scatter her essense so thin she will never be able to reform again. And so Maelia's top priority in any situation is to ensure the well being of Estella.
In terms of actual power, while she, like all the other Barons, is far inferior to Aberdale, she is the one closest to being his equal, and is highly feared by adventurers for her unnatural beauty and her lack of any desire to use it to her advantage other than to attack while they are still surprised by her appearance, out of all the Barons she is the least restrained about killing, making the sections of Darkscorn she protects the safest.
Elder Troll
Fighter
Zanfelt is the first Baron that swore loyalty to Aberdale, second only to Sorletta in his loyalty to the Lord of Darkscorn. He is the lead tactical leader among the Barons and directs the impressive forces at Aberdale's disposal, managing logistics and combat alike with equal efficiency. He is also strongly fond of young Estella, warm hearted with an easy, bellowing laugh and strong grin, the normally warlike and serious Troll is lovable and calm when near Estella.
