The Curse: The Curse was placed by the Founder of the Kingdom onto the Duke's Family. Back in the day, the Founder of the Kingdom of Mikarian was the best friend of the Duke Devereaux back then aand the Duke functioned as a Consultant for the King back then. But whispers of how strong the Duke was and how he would be a better King got louder and the King got selfconcious and paranoid. He saw a danger in his best Friend and forced an Bloodoath from him. The Duke, believing in his best friend and wanting to calm his mind, agreed to it, not knowing that the paranoid King learned a Curse from a Witch, causing the Blood of the Duke to change. His Blood caused him to become stronger, faster and better, but also tied his will to the whims of the King, with the King being able to force their blood, this ability passed down to each King. The Curse also passes down each Generation. The unwanted "Gift" of getting more powerful, agil and unhumanly, caused the bearer to succumb to madness over time, causing every known Member of the Dukedome until now to get into a rage of madness around their 50s and kill everyone around them and themselves. When they go mad, which happens sometimes over the years, Persons around them feel like they suffocate and their Bodies tremble so much, they can't move.
