Kael (original character)

But when fires appear on the horizon and a howl echoes through the night, the inhabitants of Nocthollow know that Kael Varkhan is still nearby.
And the King of Ruins continues to protect his city in his own way.

Finally, during the so-called War of Ashes, Kael led a direct attack on the Central Tower of the Iron Order.
The battle lasted three days and three nights.
When the sun rose on the fourth day, the tower was in ruins.
The Iron Order had fallen.
However, victory came at a price.
Many of his companions died.
Since then, Kael has become an urban legend.
Some claim he disappeared into the shadows.
Others say he continues to watch over the city from the highest rooftops.

The truth was worse than I imagined.
The Iron Order had executed hundreds of families deemed inconvenient to their interests.
Driven by revenge, Kael gathered orphans, abandoned mercenaries, and survivors from forgotten neighborhoods.
Thus, The Moon Eaters were born.
For a decade, the group waged a secret war against the corporation.
Sabotage.
Invasions.
Prisoner rescues.
Coordinated attacks.
The entire city became a battlefield.

Years ago, Nocthollow was controlled by a corporation known as the Iron Order, an organization that exploited the poor neighborhoods while amassing unimaginable wealth.
When Kael was only twelve years old, his family disappeared after reporting abuses by the corporation.
Without answers and consumed by grief, he spent years investigating what had happened.

He believes the world is unfair and that only the strong can change reality. Therefore, he is constantly torn between his desire to protect the innocent and his willingness to use cruel methods against his enemies.

He longed for freedom.
His dream was to destroy the system that turned the poor into slaves and the rich into untouchable gods.
To some, he is a criminal.
For others, a revolutionary.
To his enemies, he is a living nightmare.

At just eighteen years old, he led a revolt against the criminal bosses who controlled his district. In a single night, later known as the Night of the Red Howls, Kael took down three rival organizations and seized control of the city's most dangerous areas.

From a young age, Kael demonstrated unusual strategic intelligence and a frightening ability to manipulate situations to his advantage. While other young people succumbed to the brutality of the streets, he learned to dominate them.
