Talking DWIII - 3D - Redonix76 - Lord Darreous

(please excuse my bad grammar)

Lord Darreous is one of the few Warlords left on our planet. Once a man of honor, a man of simplicity; a former king whose world spiraled into darkness and chaos in the Great War. After witnessing the death of his wife and child, he vowed vengeance upon all who stands against him. His hatred; fueled by so much rage and anger, that even death could not stop him.

Mortally wounded on the battlefield, he slipped into darkness, only to be awakened by a voice; a deep dark voice. A voice filled with hatred and malice.

“Darreous, I will give you what you seek. You will have your vengeance and the power to destroy all who opposes you. All I need from you is a small gift; your service, your allegiance, your soul. Once your task is completed, you belong to me.”

Without hesitation, Darreous accepted the proposition and in an instant he was sent back onto the battlefield. With his new found power, he obliterated his enemies. No one can stop him now, until his thirst for revenge is quenched and the deal he struck was satisfied.

Now, Lord Darreous is gazing into the sky, waiting for the inevitable storm that’s coming back to his planet. Soon he will get his chance. Soon he will have his revenge. Soon, the final battle and the biggest war of its time will fall upon his doorstep. With a smile on his face, Lord Darreous awaits his destiny.

Proportion test

I wanted to make his proportions a bit off so he would look a bit more powerful than a normal human.

Allright, good work on the backstory, but what is his artifact/weapon and what is it based on?

A very good question! My thoughts was a huge battle ax with an embedded red stone of power. Fire/lava will be the effect of the stone. The ax will be of stone and iron glowing with power. His right hand and arm that holds the ax will be partially turned into stone with cracks of glowing hot molten lava within. A by-product of wielding the powerful ax.

make the handle longer. Way too short as is, you would need to be standing less then arms lenght away from your enemy to hit them with that. If your that close they may have already hit you with what ever it is they are using.

Looking good. Another option would be swinging the weapon with a chain and letting it bash your enemies that way
