**Contains cross-role play History**
Shenfald grew up on a small "farm" in Darokin. He was raised under the woman who was Empress before him, and his family always had found her to be lacking in leadership. His Father spoke poorly of her, and his mother scorned her. Not just her ways as Empress, but as a woman, too. She had never found a true Emperor for their Lands, and Civil War reigned amongst her War Lords.
Because of this, Shenfald's home life was distraught. They were penniless. Shenfald had to learn how to hunt for food when he was a child, to support his family, and himself, and was often seen outside the home. Not playing, but butchering animals, bringing home the meat. One day.. he found a young Elven Maiden, bleeding from a large gash in her stomach. His mother and father had always taught him, "Waste not, want not." And Shenfald, now, remembered this lesson. He wasn't merciful in what he did, but slayed her ruthlessly.
He ate pieces, as he walked home, finding that he rather... enjoyed the taste. And thus gained a liking of this meat, and a rather keen nose for the blood itself. His parents could tell that it wasn't normal meat that he'd brought them that night, but they didn't know just what it was, and he wouldn't tell them. It remained a secret, until he told his friend, Ayne.
Soon, though, just hunting wasn't bringing in enough. Shenfald had to gain a trade. The only thing close to hunting that he knew of was the Military. And Shenfald soon joined that, quickly gaining control of his own platoon, and rising through the ranks. Soon enough, the ArchMage at the time, Jhulyssysn, named him General of Darokin. It was here that Shenfald named Ayne Leader of Special Forces.
Now Shenfald was in power.. He could do something. He began to make reforms.. to certain things. Farming, for his parents, improved. They wanted not. But even this, wasn't enough for the power-hungry Shenfald. He wanted more. His eyes turned to the Empress of the Shrieking Banshee. And here was the Bloodless Coup taken.
Shenfald gained the power of the Army, and they marched on the Capital, surrounding the Tower and the Palace. No words were spoken, except those by Shenfald, as he marched into the Throne Room. He, along with Ayne and the Special Forces, had captured the Palace. The Empress was ejected, by Force. Shenfald had gained the support of Ravenlock, and the submission of the ArchMage. All had fallen in, according to Plan.
Shenfald had taken on the moniker "Emperor of the Flaming Pentacle", and such symbols were erected everywhere. Shenfald had given everyone a new life.. or "unlife" as it were. He had taken an Empress, one of the Ravenlock Sisters, Akeema.
This brought Power to Darokin, like nothing before had. The Civil Wars were quelled, and Wars for Dominance of _______ began, starting with Prompt. At first, there were battles with Xexoria for this.. They protected Prompt. But soon, Xexoria fell, in __________. [They'd moved to Utopia.] Darokin swarmed in, and still, Prompt fought them off.
Shenfald fell, seemingly disappearing from __________... During this time, others rose up, taking his place. The most notable being Jamalis Arintio III. He had completely transformed Darokin from what it was before. Even allied the Nation with Prompt. Shenfald couldn't stand for this, and so he "possessed" [That being, took on the form of.] the body of a small, well-known Half-Orc General named Gew. He claimed to be his own Son, and was thus accepted to be Darokin's General. Again.
Shenfald killed the Leader of Prompt, Jason, and marched up, watching as Jamalis was slain as well. As Gew, Shenfald could do nothing... But soon, Gew himself was slain, and Shenfald could return to a new form. The one he now inhabits. Shenfald, with the help of hordes of Minotaur, given him by a friend, Tuguro Raij'wi, marched on the lands of __________, wresting control of them, one by one, until they all belonged to him, and Darokin. _______ was Darokin. Darokin was ________.

>> Powers and Abilities.
Special abilities:
Necromancy: Well versed in the forbidden, dark magicks, Shenfald Destrakghery, at the height of his power, is able to summon and control hordes of undead armies from a continent away. Aside from bringing the dead back to life, having mastered necromancy also allows Shenfald to subject other creatures to his overbearing will, having already proven successful in taming even high-born demons. While not having attempted it yet, he believes angels and lesser-Gods of low will could also be put under his authority.

Aura:A deep and freighting aura of necromantic power circulates and flows around Shenfald, at all times, and gives him a slight protection against other, lighter magic. To most, the Emperor would likely appear to have fully devoted himself to the school, becoming corrupted by it, but this is false and propaganda, as he has obviously twisted and bent the magic to his will. There is a difference.

Bond: All of Shenfald's high ranking officers and even most members of Darokin's parliament share a bond with the Emperor, granting them limited, short-range necromantic powers.
|linked
Augmentation: Having control over such vast powers has allowed Shenfald to come up with unique applications for his abilities, not the least of which is augmenting his own flesh, becoming stronger, faster, and more versatile than his [now] human body should allow.
Teleportation: Shenfald comes and goes as he pleases, nobody tells him otherwise.
