Description
Ardeth

Backstory
As a child he lived in a small village together with his mother. One day he was playing at a lake, a villager saw him pull a bone from his wrist and immediately ran to tell the rest of the village.
When he got home, an angry crowd was waiting at his house, while his mother was crying and trying to calm them down.
When they saw him, his mother tried to prevent them from getting to him and ended up getting beat to death.
The villagers dragged Ardeth through the town, intent on tattooing the Mark of the Cursed on him, marking him as someone who had been influenced by demon magic.
To prevent them from hitting him, he let his bones grow out over his skin so they couldn't touch him.
It took four full-grown men to restrain him as they tattooed the mark on his cheek, but in the end it wasn't enough and he ended up killing every single one of them.

Later in life he ended up joining the Demios Clan, led by the fanatic necromancer Ilyan, whose goal was to revive the demon lord Azarial.
Ardeth didn't share Ilyan's ambitions, but joined simply for having a place to belong.
As he didn't hold any loyalty towards the Demios, it didn't take much for him to abandon them after meeting Selissa, who the clan wished to capture.
Developing an attraction and fascination towards Selissa, he decided he wanted to help her defeat Ilyan, much to the confusion of said woman.
