This is the tale of Zedku Justiceknife. He asked the local elite crossbowman for the location of a megabeast to slay. He was given the location and insulted for his strange name. He whispered quietly to himself "I shall murder that bastard, one day" and then he made his way to the cave. During his adventure in the cave, he found a fantastic microcline amulet and decided to keep it. He would later on kill helpless victim with the amulet. He finally encountered the giant and repeatedly slashed it with no effect.
Zedku dashed out of the cave and decided to ignore the giant as it was obviously far too powerful for him. Zedku returned to the town and was ridiculed by the elite crossbowman "What, too weak to slay a simple giant? Bah, pathetic". Zedku calmly took off his amulet and waited for the crossbowman to turn his back... Zedku wrapped the amulet around his enemies throat and began to strangle! The crossbowman shot Zedku right in the stomach, but Zedku remained awake and kept on strangling. Eventually, the crossbowman died from the throat trauma. Zedku eyed the corpses strange ring... It seemed to be made out of... Human bone... Zedku took it alongside the quiver and crossbow of the dead man. A child came into the room and saw Zedku covered in blood. The child dashed at him, but got his upper body slashed open. The child then got his left lower leg sliced off. Zedku then slashed the childs right lower leg, and then his face from his right ear to his throat.
Zedku then made his way to a local goblin tower in the search of more victims. The goblin tower, to his surprise, had almost no goblins! The first person who was open to the idea of following this murderer around was Aspuz Wickedsilences, the local thief. Zedku checked the top of the tower for prisoners, but found none. He travelled to a local town/goblin fortress and attacked the high priest. He hacked the high priest in the left upper arm, left upper leg twice, slicing off the leg and then finally decapitated the priest. He then turned his attention to the now hostile thief. Zedku slashed him to the point of near death and then jumped off the temple with the priest remains. 2 priests confronted Zedku, but only 1 in melee. Zedku slashed the priest until he passed out from pain. Zedku then made a swift escape with a child prisoner he discovered. Little does the child know about the world of pain she shall be thrusted into.
Zedku took the child out to the wilderness and dropped his weapons. He then dropped the priest remains, doused them with fisher berry wine and set them alight. Zedku burnt all of the flesh off of the corpse and then grabbed the leg bones. He then shattered the little girl's right hip with the bone. Zedku then gouged the eyes of the child, she promptly passed out. Zedku waited for her to wake up before beating her tender body with the bones until she passed out again. When the child woke up, Zedku smashed her right hip with the bone again and then beat her upper body until it was nothing but mush. When night was over, Zedku went back to the goblin town and searched for more victims. He found another child prisoner in one of the towers. As he was exiting the tower, a pikedwarf ambushed him. The pikedwarf was slashed to pieces and bled out.
Zedku then took the child to the woods and wielded the priests legbone. He swung it into the childs left upper leg and right upper arm. He then broke the childs right upper arm and left hand with the legbone. Zedku took off his microcline amulet and strangled the child to death with it. He then went back into the dark town and conducted a full scale raid. When he was done, many of the inhabitants fled from the tower, hoping to get away from Zodek. Zodek let them go, as they would likely be torn to pieces by the local wildlife.
When Zedku was raiding the goblin settlement, he eventually came across the local macelord. Zedku let out an ear-shattering war cry and lunged at him! Zedku knocked him over and then strangled him to death with his microcline amulet. Zedku eventually came across another child prisoner. He took the prisoner into the woods, battered his left upper arm and broke his left lower arm with the high priests legbone. He then gouged both of the little girls eyes out and proceeded to beat her over the left upper and lower arm with the bone, with the same injuries as the last beating. Zedku then beat the child again with the bone, bruising the upper body, mangling and spraining the left lower arm, breaking the left upper arm and breaking the right upper arm.
Zedku eventually grew tired of waiting for the frail child to die. He wielded his sword and hacked off the childs left lower arm, followed by the left upper leg. The child bled out a few seconds later. Zedku then went back to the dark fortress he was sieging to find more victims. Zedku killed almost everyone in the dark fortress and is now going to one of the two dark forts nearby. Zedku found a child prisoner in the fort he is now sieging and he took him to a place where no-one could see and hacked him to pieces with his sword.
Zedku travelled to the temple in the town and then found a high priest. He hacked the high priest and 2 other priests to death. Zedku took the high priest's remains to the forest and torched them. He then grabbed the skeleton and put it on top of the goblins temple, for all to see his power. While he was doing this, he recruited a child prisoner. He took the child prisoner out to a river and battered her head and right upper arm with the priest bone. He then pushed the child into the river and watched him drown. Zedku returned to the fortress and found a secret tunnel in the dark fortress that leads down to the caverns! He explored the tunnel and found a dwarven prisoner. Zedku began to strangle the prisoner and then slashed his upper body, tearing the childs right lung and heart. Zedku then strangled the child to the point of passing out. The child bled out from his wounds seconds later.
While travelling in the tunnel, Zedku discovered two prisoners. Sick thoughts ran through his head as he wondered what to do with the children. He gouged out one of the childs eyes and then broke both of his (her?) elbows. He then strangled the child to death. He hacked the other child to pieces, finishing it off by severing it in half. As he was doing this, he recruited a dwarven child. He took out the priest's legbone and started to horribly deform the frail childs body. Zedku shattered almost every bone in the childs tender body before it bled to death. Zedku encountered another dwarven prisoner child when he was searching for a way out. He took the child to a local forest, gouged the childs eyes, broke his knees, broke his elbows and set him aflame.
Upon further inspection of the tunnel, Zedku found a passage that lead deep underground to an even bigger tunnel! This tunnel goes offsite! He followed the tunnel and he eventually found several bridges over a chasm. The tunnel was massive, and led through several mountains to another dark fortress. It took several days for Zedku to travel through the tunnel and he had to eat vomit and drink blood to survive. When he made his way to the town, he found several cracks that lead straight into chasms. He also encountered a temple made out of pure garnet with a pool of fresh water in the middle. The high priest noticed Zedku almost instantly and charged at him, only to have his head chopped off in a single strike. A child was in the temple and was recruited by Zedku. Zedku hacked at the childs limbs until he bled out. Zedku went into a nearby tower and recruited a dwarven child and human child. He hacked the human child to pieces while the dwarven child watched. He then dropped his weapon, gouged the dwarven childs eyes and beat the child to death with the severed high priest head. Eventually, Zedku got a quest to slay a giant named Daze. He easily slew it and took its bones as a trophy. Afterwards, he got a quest to kill a minotaur. He easily killed the minotaur.
Zedku is currently going to an elf retreat in search for murder and pillage. He has split many an elf wide open. His most unique method of killing was most likely setting a severed arm on fire and beating an elf to death with it. After slaying almost every elf in the retreat, he went to a local goblin tower to raise hell. Zedku's favourite thing about raiding was the children. They were always so fun to split open... Eventually, Zedku came across the local macelord. He cleaved the macelords upper body asunder! After a while of wandering around, Zedku's sword was lost... He ran from the dark fortress as fast as he could and ran to a local human town. Little did he know that they had heard of his deeds of brutality. They attacked Zedku, he dashed around, avoiding arrows and bolts in order to get to a weapon store. He did in one piece. Suddenly, he realised that this city was in a state of civil war! Everybody was attacking each other. Crossbowmen were shooting down axemen, axemen were killing soap makers, the place was in a perpetual state of chaos. He ran from the town the moment the chaos stopped and went to kill some local goblin scum. After a while, Zedku was pinned down at the temple by several priests. The high priest eventually ran out of ammo and ran towards him. The high priest was slain in seconds. The other priest had Zedku pinned down pretty well. Eventually, Zedku climbed up the temple with a crossbow. Every time Zedku fired his crossbow, the priest would fire his 3 times. Eventually, the priest got shot in the arm and was knocked off of the tower. Zedku dashed down and started to fight him from the ground. A shot drilled the priest right in the chest, killing him within seconds.
After a while of wandering, the master lasher of the tower came charging at Zedku! Zedku was lucky enough to be stronger and knocked him down. Zedku then hacked off his left hand and the lasher passed out. The lasher had his brain pierced seconds later. Zedku then grabbed the lashers scourge and began to slash away, finishing the warrior off with a decapitation. Eventually, the dark fortress was devoid of almost all life. Zedku decided he was strong enough to go and face the giant that almost took his life. He travelled back to the cave and walked in. Eventually, the giant came. It wasn't long before the giant was a pile of mush on the floor. Zedku then travelled to the nearest human town at night. He decapitated the sleeping diplomat and put his severed head on top of the temple for all to see. Zedku travelled away from the town, searching for a city that would accept him. He found one and slew an ettin for the city. Zedku wanted more slaughter. No, he NEEDED more slaughter. He walked to a local elf retreat only to realise it was really a town taken over by elfs! Zedku asked the local druid for service and got a quest to go and slay a giant. Near the cave, there was a named aligator. Zedku decapitated the aligator and kept its head as a trophy. Upon entering the cave, Zedku decided he no longer needed his macemen "friends" and hacked them both to pieces. Soon enough, Zedku realised there was more than one giant in the cave! He ran out of the cave, a broken arm his only injury. After nursing his wounds, Zedku came back. He encountered the giant who chased him out of the cave and slew her. After a while of searching, Zedku found the giant he was supposed to slay. It was unconcious and missing a leg. Zedku took off his microcline amulet and strangled it.
Eventually, Zedku returned to the elf town and got a quest to slay another giant. When he was near the cave, the giant's tiger attacked him. Zedku slashed the tiger in half and ventured into the cave. He soon found the giant and killed it without any trouble. He returned to the town and got a quest to kill another giant. He killed the giant in seconds. Zedku then returned to the elf town and reported the death of the giant to the druid. After that, the druid had no more service to give. Zedku unsheathed his blade and slashed the druid's right arm off and then cleaved him in half. Zedku then brutally clensed the town of all elven scum. Zedku then made his way to the nearest forest retreat to slay more elves. The elves fought with courage and high numbers, but were no match to Zedku's swordsmanship. After a while of slaughter, an elven druid arived! She charged at Zedku, but was skewered upon his blade. Zedku took her corpse and dumped it in a pool. He also dumped the corpse of the first elven druid he killed in the pool.
Eventually, Zedku came across a lone elven girl. She was beautiful... Beautiful skin, beautiful face... Everything about her was beautiful... Zedku wanted to carry her where ever he traveled, even if that meant she had to be in pieces. Zedku dropped his weapon and ran towards the elven child. She struggled as Zedku forced her to the ground, but in vain. Eventually, Zedku realised she would not cooperate with his plans. He dropped his shield and took out the priests legbone, a weapon used in the ritualistic bludgeoning of so many children before her... He forced the child to the ground again and beat her repeatedly over the chest with the object. The childs heart began to fail. Zedku then began to stab the child in the lower body with the sharp bone, killing her. He grabbed the corpse and hung it on his shoulder. Zedku then went to a place in the forest and slept next to the child, caressing the corpse until putrefaction made her fall apart in his arms. He eventually travelled to a local volcano with the corpse. He looked down the volcano and realised it was really a deep chasm! He held the child corpse in his arms and looked into her mangled, vacant eyes... Zedku embraced the corpse tighter, but could not handle the stench of the rotted body. He raised the corpse high above his head and threw it into the chasm. The purring maggots shall feast, Zedku thought.
Eventually, Zedku travelled to a nearby elf retreat. There were rotting corpses strewn around the place. Zedku recruited a swords(wo)man and made his way out of the retreat. Zedku then made his way to a human town and got a quest to kill a minotaur. He hunted down and killed the minotaur with little effort. He then got a quest to slay a giant, which he did with almost no effort. Zedku then travelled to a human town and got a quest to slay a giant. He slew it and got another quest. This one was to kill an ettin. Gigantic beasts are small game for Zedku. He killed the beast with ease. Zedku then got a quest to kill one more ettin. He let his companion, the "stake impaler" (sword elf) finish the ettin off. He then retired to the town for a while. He had three hundred and fifty one notable kills and eighty eight other kills.
