Sylum Inspiration: Thranduil

Mod: Member

 

 

Thranduil is not a Vampire, but as he’s been around for a long while, so he has some form of immortality.   At this moment he’s very secretive of where he’s from.

Rumors have it that he close friends with Thorin Durin, who knows more about his history, but also isn’t talking.

It is know that he’s tied to Sauron, who is a known enemy to Mod Clan.

(Dilios Note: I received a note that he has no ties to Sauron except a deep seated hatred and that I needed to update my books)

Sylum Inspiration: Dwalin

MOD: Hunter

 

Dwalin was the first born son of the King’s Advisor Balin.   His father raised him to learn the difference between a King of the people and greedy bastard.   When he was six years old, Thorin was born.  He took one look at the baby and knew what his father meant.   From that moment on he dedicated his life to his king.

He taught the kid to fight.

He got the kid out of trouble.

He cursed the day Thorin grew bigger and taller than him, and he was one of the biggest in Erebor.

He stood by and watched as Thorin made a deal with the dragon, then challenged Thror.   He smiled when the old bastard realized the dragon wasn’t coming to save him, and Thorin was going to kill him.

He smiled brightly when Thorin married, mourned with him when she died giving him two beautiful strong sons.

Thorin had laughed when Dori had yelled at him, ready to deny his offer of marriage to her youngest sister Ori.   Mainly because every one knew Nori the middle brother, and him were ‘close’.

He loved his wife, was deathly afraid of his sister in law and ignored Nori’s ability to get in and out of trouble.

His world shattered when some warlord showed up demanding tribute, and without hesitation killed Thorin in front of them.   He swore to Fili he would seek vegence, only to be shocked when the young new king told him Thorin was alive … in a way.

Before they could even figure out what was going on, the warlord was back and the village was destroyed.   There were thirteen of them, he was the lucky one that had his whole family.   Thorin held him as they buried Balin on the road.   When they met Bilbo Baggins he knew the look on his friends face, something he hadn’t seen in decades.

Once they got to Builwyf, and everything was explained about Vampires, he had contemplated getting Turned as Thorin would need him, but then the warlord showed up with his horde.   He still ended up Turned, but lost everyone in the process.
