Vanguard OC - Luther

Luther is a character in the (most likely short-lived) role-play of Vanguard.

Biography
As a child, Luther was raised to be a devout Mooragatan soldier by the military. His birth family were worthless peasants, whose only healthy son was snatched from them by the recruiting force after half of their military power was wiped out in a war with a rival kingdom. Luther grew up to be a formidable soldier and eventually joined the Vigilants of the Faith, an elite division of the Mooragatan military who specialize in purging the undead and the impure, however these definitions were up to interpretation by just about anyone, and more than once have the Vigilants abused their power to attack defenseless people in the name of their faith. Their hypocrisy and cruelty sickened Luther to his core, but dissertation could only result in death.

During one of their "holy purges", Luther contacted the taint from a Gravewalker and became an undead, that night his own comrades turned against him and he was forced to flee. He escaped to another province, not willing to find a cure, he allowed the taint to fester and grow, until he was no more than a vengeful spirit, loathing existence and clawing his way through the world.
