(----Writer's Notes----)
This is a character that WOLFBLADE111 submitted for my very first Create Your Own Sargassian Event last year. And I want to give my deepest apologies to Wolf for not getting this done until now. It was mostly because this character and the Brothers of the Blade were kinda difficult to make new designs for along with having no clue how to integrate them into Sargasso. Though at least with Black Shroud I finally thought of something for him.Ā
And finally, here is my version of Black Shroud's story:
Black Shroud is a mysterious assassin from The Kern-Verse . Well the first version of The Kern-Verse before it ended up getting destroyed completely. Anyway, Black Shroud was a hired assassin that can be hired by those willing to pay his rather hefty prices. Doesn't matter who the target is, humanoid, alien, monster, whatever. You want it gone or brought to you alive? The Black Shroud can make that happen. Though depending on the target, Shroud may increase his price if the target is particularly challenging to pick off. However, his skills as an assassin and a bounty hunter weren't that helpful when an ally of The Safeguards of Liberty, a very powerful deity, went berserk from a dark influence and tore the entire Old Kern-Verse into complete nothingness.
Though fortunately for Shroud, he along with several other Kernians were rescued by sheer luck thanks to many different rainbow-colored portals and they ended up in The Super-Sargasso Sea . And as he stayed on the continent of Decemilla, he started to re-establish his business as both an assassin and a bounty hunter, offering his services to the highest bidders. Though the various heroes and other superhumans he meets were a constant thorn in his side, but he does manage to get away after a successful assassination. Especially with some of the mutations that he gained upon entering The Sea.
This character was made using Hero Machine 3.
