Alexios is the living embodiment of brutality, a one man army whose very presence on the battlefield is enough to compel most enemies to flee for their lives. Born from a passionate affair between Xol, The Flayed King, and the mortal queen of a bygone nation, Alexios has studied and perfected every possible form of warfare, honing his skills over countless battles. From the bloody melee of hand-to-hand combat to the deadly precision of archery and siegecraft, there is no weapon or tactic that he has not mastered.
Legends say that Alexios uses his power as Xol’s Exarch to walk the Material Plane, feeding upon the souls of dying warriors so that he may continue to wage war for all eternity. Their hatred fuels him, coursing through his veins like molten bronze, and causing every plate of his battle-scarred armor to smolder and fuse with his skin. His followers, inspired by his mythical might, test their mettle in the fires of war as a tribute to him. Alexios is more than a mere demigod: he is conquest itself, whose name alone strikes fear into the hearts of all those who oppose him.
