DrBosskey Shoot'em Up | Soul Blight Reaper Art & Origin Story
4The origin story of the Soul Blight Reapers, a ferocious winged and horned skeletal demon legion. It all began in the mystical land of Sreevus, where the Magi of Sreevus were known for their mastery of dark magic mixing with the demonic realms. Transmutors of demonic essence mixing with unlife in strange and mysterious ways.
One unholy day when Sreevus was restless in his eternal slumber, the Magi of Sreevus decided to undertake an elaborate conjuring ritual whispered to them by the ominous deity of the land, Sreevus. Their goal was to create a portal to the outer planes of hell and bring forth a powerful demonic soul essence that could be twisted to do their bidding.
As the Magi began the ritual, the air around them grew thick with an eerie darkness, and the ground trembled beneath their feet. The very fabric of reality seemed to shift, as the portal to the outer planes of hell slowly began to materialize around the conjuration chamber using the dark wellspring as the nexus of power.
But the conjuring ritual was not without its risks. As the Magi teased out a demon soul from the depths of the portal, they needed a host body to intertwine it with. Fallen adventurers with a lust for treasure and power without the desire to move on from their corporeal defeated state were perfect for the ritual.
The Magi brought the fallen adventurers' bodies to the dark wellspring chamber where they could be closest to the presence of Sreevus and began to infuse the bodies with the demonic soul essence lured from the hell plane. But as the souls and bodies merged, something unexpected happened. The adventurers' bones began to shift and contort, taking on a blood-red glowing skeletal appearance. Great wings burst from their backs, and two sharp horns protruded from its skull. Errie shrieks of unlife filled the chamber.
As the ritual came to an end, the Soul Blight Reaper legions rose from the ground, their eyes glowing with an otherworldly light. They were creatures of pure darkness and malevolence, ready to carry out the Magi's bidding with a ferocity that chilled the bones.
And so, the Soul Blight Reapers became legendary defenders of Sreevus's domains, creatures born of the darkest magic and bound to do the bidding of those who dared to summon it. Their eerie visage and supernatural powers would haunt the land and reap souls for generations to come, a testament to the power of the Magi and the dangers of delving too deep into the realm of the unknown.
