Forus, The Bloody Tyrant

Ever since the dawn of time war has defined the world. Before ancient empires fought over kingdoms primordials fought gods. In the age of the Old Gods Bane was the undisputed god of war. Among his greatest champions was Forus, The Bloody. He was named such because as a mortal he was responsible for the success of the Draconic Wars. Born a dragonborn, Forus never found himself adhering to the dragonborn custom of physical strength over tactics. He much preferred tactics in addition to combat strength. He was the only dragonborn general in history to use tactics and this is exactly why he defeated the Kinn. Upon his mortal death he became Bane’s right hand, helping Bane maintain the domain. When Bane decided to step down Forus took the reigns of war. He also fell in love with the new goddess of the sea, Aella.
Unfortunately for Forus, Aella fell for his long time rival Axdros. In a rare moment of passion Forus went against his character and kidnapped Aella. Axdros declared war and one of the greatest divine battles began. While Forus was clearing winning the war he was losing the battle for Aella’s heart. It is said by his followers that he fought Axdros knowing he would lose to end the conflict. Forus lost his eyes to Axdros but had also proved that he could win any war.
