A Fate's Tale
:

Rockus was once a simple enforcer, a hulking brute made of stone who earned his living as a thug for the notorious underworld kingpin known only as The Shroud. Born from the depths of the earth, his body was forged in the ancient fires beneath the mountains, giving him a hardened exterior and an unwavering sense of duty. With his immense strength and impenetrable body, Rockus quickly rose through the ranks, becoming The Shroud’s most trusted enforcer. He took pride in his work, believing that by serving the kingpin, he could protect those he loved from the dangers of the criminal world. But his loyalty came at a price.

Beneath his rough exterior, Rockus held a deep love for his family—a wife and a young daughter, both of whom were the only light in his otherwise dark world. He kept them hidden away, far from the prying eyes of The Shroud and his enemies. For years, Rockus believed his family was safe, shielded by the power he wielded and the fear his name inspired. But one fateful night, everything changed. In a calculated move to eliminate any potential threats, The Shroud betrayed Rockus, sending assassins to kill his family while he was on a mission. Rockus returned home to find the remains of his life shattered, his loved ones taken from him in a brutal act of treachery.

The loss devastated Rockus, breaking something deep within his stone heart. The pain of their deaths reverberated through his being, each crack in his body a reminder of the betrayal he had suffered. No longer driven by duty or fear, Rockus vowed to bring down the empire he had once helped to build. With a heart full of rage and a body built for destruction, he set out on a path of vengeance, hunting down those responsible for the deaths of his family. The Shroud had unleashed a force that could not be contained—Rockus was no longer a mere thug; he was an unstoppable force of nature, driven by a singular purpose.

Now, Rockus wanders the underworld, his name whispered in fear by those who once commanded him. He has become a symbol of relentless fury, a remnant of the man he once was, carved from the ruins of his former life. The Shroud’s empire trembles as Rockus draws closer, each step bringing him closer to the reckoning he swore to deliver. But in the quiet moments, when the rage subsides, Rockus remembers the family he lost, and the stone that encases his heart cracks a little more, the pain of his loss seeping through. His journey is one of vengeance, but also one of redemption, as he seeks to honor the memory of those he loved by ensuring their killers face the same fate.
