    Introduction

    Backstory:

    At the age of 15 years old, Lucan did a pact with a Daedric Lord, names Lord Marduk 'Bal (race: Xivilai), he was desperate for survive in Cyrodiil, because the Llodos plague and the devastation of the city, he lost his whole family, leaving him in the streets at the age of 15 years old.

    The only way to survive that days was running away from the infested city, he managed himself hunting and recollecting food from the forest, because he was desperate, he found a way to give him strength and support, he knew stories about a Daedric Cult, in that times the Daedric Cult was growing up slowly and he knew barely the location it was supposed to be. Few days later he found, Lichor Camoran (Mankar Camoran’s brother), close to the Cult reunion point, so he ask him for join the cult, giving to the Daedric Cult his devotion, Lichor Camoran said he needed to pass by a ritual of initiation, (walking together) , Lichor look at Lucan with a fire in his eyes and said: “you have to give me two death bodies right here, killed by your own hands, If you want to be part of this crew”- then he turn back and close the hidden door of the Daedric Cult in his face. So He did it, pass by his initiation ritual, cuts his hand and shred his blood in the altar, now he had a place to hide and survive of the zombie invasion.

    (In the Daedric Cult, a hidden cave)
    Then while a series of Daedric Cult tasks and sacrifices he advanced in ranks, and suddenly was contacted by a Daedric Lord names Lord Marduk 'Bal, he also order him a series of savage tasks, Lucan Tortious was supervised by his underlings Dremoras, were three Dremoras (two females and one male, I have to make them, names and everything :P), them was in charge to look Lucan made his job, so the pact was the following, If he did it all the jobs Lord Marduk will give Lucan a gift, he will be recompensed, by something to makes him earns his own life, Lucan achieves all the tasks of Lord Marduk gave him , finally he was gifted with an Artifact names DarkBlackSmith, a blacksmith hammer what can turn and change the shape of every metal easily and also gives him a detailed map where to find blacksmith resources to all Tamriel. A few years had pass since Lucan join the Cult and now he was 22 (or something I have to think in it yet).

    Lucan haven’t contacted anymore after the Daedric tasks of Lord Marduk, so now finally he had a way to earns his own life, with DarkBlackSmith Artifact in his inventory and a detailed map of blacksmith resources, he planned to go out of the Cult, because he thought was done with the Daedric cult and his slayer tasks, but he knew they will not tolerate to retire of the Cult, so he had his own last mission, for the Daedric Cult, he knew will serve to Daedric principles If gives more blood to the cause to kill everyone in the reunion point of the Cult (was the hidden cave) with help of mercenaries, he hire ten men and the butchery started, he survived and a few mercenaries too, two exactly, he killed the thirty members of the Daedric Cult in the cave.


    Then he take everything he could with his mercenaries with him, they loot the cave and he gain a fellow (I have to think in this character, name and everything), the other mercenary go away and he never knew of him.

    The zombie invasion low dawn, and now the undead were only in the forests and dark places of Cyrodiil

    That’s was the backstory, and I planned to do it like an story, but will be more brief, it’s the introduction of the book Darkforges

    Then the stories begins when Lucan Tortious Darkforges knew Idonia Lucina Lupus (Baal’s mother), in the Merchant District of the Imperial City, they put a stall, Lucan earns his life like blacksmith serving the Legion and Idonia helped Lucan to raise up the store of the Blacksmith Lucan, she helped him with papers and documentation, Idonia had a shop too, sells quality and fine clothes before knew Lucan.

    That’s how the story begins, then the undead will raise one more time, a necromantic cult will be disturbing Cyrodiil once again and some revenge will be against Lucan by the assassination of the Daedric Cult members, this will be the main story of the book Darkforges (book 0)


    This is my TOC, here I will add the chapters:
