Damastosn the hollow king

Damastos or as he was once known Xia Fueng was an ancient chinese warlord heavily connected to the dark arts , born a lowly commoners child he was within the poorest district of the chinese empire , outside the walls of the emporers palace. Forever from day to day he wandered the street in search for food for hi sickly mother and family as his father was but a lowly foot soldier and as such earned very little money and was away from home most of the year spending his meagre income on booze and whores giving naught to his family but worries and grief. Year by year Xia would grow more resentful and hateful towards the thief of a father he had , his father had been working against his home nation in the war against japan. It was at this point him mother finally made her passing as he lost his sister a year later at the age of thirteen through disease and malnutrition , she faded slowly and painfully as she gradually passed away the pain at this time was what stirred his intrest in the dark arts as he searched and toiled for a cure no matter the cost. He began to take stray children from the streets of the slum and tinker and experiment with them and read the books of the darkest natures , soon his power grew and grew as his father soon gained fame for killing a traitorous warlord and was given high and powerful honours. This led to a further step into the darkest and horrifying past he had at the age of fifteen , after years upon years of training and gaining the ability of a theif and the martial arts he trained so long to achieve.

It was when he was fourteen he began to learn the arts of kung fu from his master as a way to further his powers , this to make him able to access the deepest vaults of the imperial museum and the emperors own hidden libraries , this was a task he needed to accomplis with all his might if he were to further succeed. As he prepared to enter the courtyard his thoughts drifted back to his family and the disgust and disdain he held for them for placing one as him into such a meagre and pathetic role in his life station , it was time for him to drag his way into a true role. He descended into the yard steathily avoiding the guards and using his already gained knowledge of the dark arts to exell as his slayed a guard and devoured his soul he began o lose his sanity and want for more power he snuck within the sactum of the emperor looking for a specific book then he found the xun xheng (book of darkness) and left as smoothly as he came. He spent years in isolation in the mountains studying and working on his arts , learning the darkest and most twisted of soul arts , the demon soul arts a man who consumnes the soul will gain its strength. At age 17 he madehis way to the nexus realm after years of trying to find a way into the demons realm he finally procured his entrance with the sacrifice of ten females at the alter of Magus Bol , the blood walk was satisfied with its meal he walked the darkest path of the darkest real he hunted the demon prince through his own grounds , he fled time and again from the young dark warrior who slew foe after foe becoming darker and darker.

Seven years that wereonly minutes in the real world passed , his torture and grief from the years of fighting and hunting had made hm grow madder and addicted to the use of his arts so much to the point he had become a demon prince himself after he defeated the previous ruler he gained the power of a demon known as the false king. He had stolen the sould of the king and becom e his power incarnate a strong and ruthless being he ruled the realm with an iron fist until his time was up and he left to return to feudal china. He soon grew in stature and power as he worked his way through the armies in record time , it was only a short two years before he became a platoon leader within the emperors forces , he watches as during war after war Xia Fueng marched on the castles , unleashing the true power of the false king , he became him and stood before the castles of his foes raising his undead demon soldiers from the ground to storm the gates as he single handedly entered and vanquished his foes for his lord , the emperor continued to watch in awe as he grew continuosly in power as Xia Fueng consumed the vanquished and grew2 his masters army with more undead soldier as well as feeding his own personal power well.

It was on one dark battle that his powers truly were shown within the soul arts , in a battle to control tactical advantage over the enemy a stategic position was chosen for taking the base was thought to be relatively un guarded and weakened so Xia was sent as the sole force for he was the false king otherwise known as allant , this information however was falsely supplied and was un true in the fullest. The enemies had fortified the position with thje strongest sorcerer they ha to hand to combat Xia's assualt. A duel was undertaken as Xia marched through the forces consuming their very souls one after the other like tehy were leaves caught in the wind. As they stared eachother down in the courtyard of the great castle a battle of the darkest nature was taking place , it was two long days before the victory was finally assured by Xia not using magic but a swift verticle slice with a sword to destroy his foe as he drank the soul from his being his power grew beyonde compare as he became the single weapon that won the war for his master.

Until he decided it was time for the strong to rule , having been promoted to the rank of trusted advisor had access to all the literature which as a child he could not access due to the security. He spent years within the deepest depths of the libraries and sanctums searching fo power and he later found what he had hoped reems of text. He spent yet more years researching and dominating his foes for his master until the time came for his rule. In the dead of night he vanuished the weak king with his dark powers drinking his life from his body. From his time in the sanctums he found a gift that brought him life beyond that of mear humans he went from sub realm to sub realm every thirty years to absorb more souls , this was the main factor in helping his rule. After the king died the rule of darkness began and it was a long one , where the partially immortal xia ruled with impunity and an iron glove , there was not one who would oppose him as he began to dominate asia in its entirity. This was the case for three hundred years as he ruled un opposed until a great warrior came a cast a hole within his bust through the one part of him still human , his heart which contained the souls of all his vanquished foes.

Upon receaving that fateful wound from the warrior from another land Xia died a painful and horrible death , but was not greated by the time he had for redemption as a plus , from all the misdeeds he commited and all the souls he drank the choice was made that he would be cast to Hueco Mundo and left for the hoillows to feed. But this however would not be the case Hueco Mundo suited him he enjoyed the dank darkness and vast and endless expanses of nothingness it reminded himself of his old realm within the demon gates , his power had already been plavced above other hollows as he was increadibly strong , this most likely attributed to his previous life as a soul drinker that made this transition and power possible , he had absorbed many souls and soul powers already in his life and was technically a living dead for many centuries as hius dark rule was commenced. The desert of hueco mundo steadily lost its population of hollows as they were devoured and conquered by his unnassailable power.

Colony after colony fell to him as he travelled looking for others within his power level , until he found a great and huge montain where he made his home and became the lord of hueco mundo dominating the skyline with his giant castle as he rested upon his throne on the peak of it , he waited and ate for years ascending through the ladder of hollows until he realised that he was truly unlike the rest as gillians no longer had the power he hungered for as he began to devour adjucas and vaso lorde alike he laughed and all cowered beneath his powerful rule , hueco mundo would niot be the same as he seeked a higher power the power of the shinigami , he had tasted their souls and they tasted delightful , it was now his goal to assimilate those powers with his own so he began his search across the barron wasteland still consuming more hollows of all levels trying to keep his growth in this realm still on the up during his search for a new level of power.

There was one he found , a strange hollow like being with a human appearance and a strange outfit whose power was scitillatingly high and drew him towards her. She had a mask this was true which made her more similar to a regular hollow than himself , he must have the armour that she wore , it was truly depicting of his powers. After a long and turbulent fight he finally consumed her being creating a new power within him , this made apparent by the spawning of this armour from within his being to the outside as would be normally situated he also gained her weapon however knew of no way to use it apart from the standard slashing motions of a sword , this would be his challenge if he could release the sword he could move to a higher level of power.
