Dacium

Warlock

Dacium grew up in a small city of around a thousand people. His father was and still is an clerk to a local lawyer who represents those wrongly accused. His mother was a homemaker, but during Dacium’s teenage years his mother was accused by a grieving mother to have cast a ‘hex’ on her recently deceased daughter. After losing the trial his mother was hanged in the city square. Dacium, having been betrayed by the law, looked to take vengeance on his mother’s accusers; being a well-studied child he recalled reading a book that explained how to make a pact with a demon and use it to acquire power over his enemies. He summoned the demon and was granted the powers of a warlock, though he was informed that he would be beholden at some point to the will of the demon. Dacium used his new powers to torment and kill his mother’s accusers, though after doing so he found no reprieve from the anger and guilt. Instead, he was left with remorse for the evil he had unleashed. He vowed to try and use his gifts to bring justice to the world and to balance the scales for good. This brought him to where he is today.
