Rudo

Rudo is a 24-year-old cursed warrior who was exiled to be sacrificed.

Rudo had lost his mother when he was just born. He used to be a mercenary leader but now he was found and raised by an Old Merchant. The village and house where the Old Merchant was staying were destroyed by an annoying and gang of bandits and Rudo had to leave his village and house with the Old Merchant.

Years later, Rudo was 14 years old. The Old Merchant, whom he loved and saw as his father, had died due to the disease he caught and Rudo had to continue his life alone. Thanks to the fighting and combat techniques he learned from the Old Merchant, whom he saw as his father, Rudo had been engaged in the mercenary business, hired by kingdoms and working with some groups for money for a certain period of time. Until he encountered the Eagle Group...

When the Eagle Group encountered Rudo, they had been brothers and comrades for many years. A real bond had formed rather than mercenaries. Rudo had participated in many wars with the Eagle Group and had accumulated many beautiful moments that he would never forget throughout his life. One day, Rudo had started to take on the dirty and evil work of the Eagle Group leader. Because of these works, Rudo had begun to think of leaving the Eagle Group...

A few years later, Rudo was now 22 years old, had become even more skilled in war and fighting, and had become a more dangerous warrior. However, the thought of leaving the Eagle Group had become obsessed with him. And one day, he had silently attempted to leave the group. No matter how much the group members and the leader tried to stop him, it was no use and Rudo continued to do his old job.

2 years later, Rudo had heard that the Eagle Group was no longer as strong as it used to be and that they no longer had the same reputation, and he wanted to return. Although a part of the group was happy that Rudo was back, a small part did not seem to be happy at all. And it didn't last long... The leader of the group sold his soul and will to the great demons, offering the Eagle Group and Rudo's body as a sacrifice... Everyone except Rudo and a few people in the group died...

After these events, Rudo could not sleep comfortably at night due to the red sacrificial mark on his body, he was not left alone by the demons. And this put him in an endless war cycle. Rudo never gave up and continued to advance. Because Rudo was a savage warrior, ruthless and merciless, very strong and agile... Rudo's only goal was to seek out the demonized Eagle Group and kill its leader and take revenge...

Title: “The Crimson Offering – Rudo’s Journey” Scene 1: Awakening in the Ashen Valley The wind licked the cracked stones as ashes from scorched forests danced through the air. Rudo awakened at the base of a jagged rock, his crimson brand searing against his flesh. His armor was worn and weary, yet his eyes still burned with resolve. Around him stretched the haunting silence of a world that had forgotten light, pierced only by the distant cries of demons. Narrator (inner voice): “Every morning, I rise beneath the weight of this curse. Every night, the screams of the Falcon Company echo through my dreams. And yet I live... because there's still something left to fight for.”

Scene 2: Footsteps of the Merchant A brief flashback reveals a shadowy shop filled with odd relics—the remnants of the old merchant’s world. His voice is wise, trembling with age. Old Merchant (memory): “When power makes you forget who you are... remember this: someone once believed in you, Rudo. That someone was me.”

Scene 3: Glory Days of the Falcon Company On a wide steppe, the mercenary group stands united—laughter, clanking armor, and a deep sense of brotherhood fill the air. Rudo smiles, if only briefly. Falcon Member: “We don’t just fight—we live together. Rudo, you're one of us now.”

Scene 4: The Betrayal Ritual Inside a dark cavern, the leader performs a forbidden ritual, driven by a thirst for immortality. Infernal runes glow as the pact is sealed. Falcon Leader: “Born in blood, we’ll return to it. We'll transcend this world and reach true power!” As the ritual completes, hellish forces consume the camp. Only Rudo and a few others survive, but the crimson brand now marks him forever.

Scene 5: The Land of Endless Battle – “The Thorned Expanse” Years later, Rudo walks through a wasteland, twisted by demonic energy. The ground is parched and the skies never clear. Each foe he faces resembles the ghosts of fallen comrades, shaped by his buried guilt. Rudo (inner voice): “They think they'll find me sleeping. But I never sleep.”

Scene 6: Night of Decision Rudo stands alone on a cliff’s edge, clutching a broken pendant—the last memory of the old merchant. His eyes close. Then open—burning with relentless will. Rudo: “I wasn't born cursed. But I’ve endured enough to carry the curse. Now... I hunt them down.”
