Synopsis
A procedure known as "Fan'hel" or Magic-Veins is a procedure that pulls the leylines directly from ones body and places them ontop of the body as a sort of tattoo. I has only ever been succesful on two people, Leon Ther'os Thal'al and the Hero of Old. In the efforts to create a Champion worthy of his arena, the Emperor uses his magic and the forbidden ritual on millions, killing all, but one. Leon Ther'os Thal'al, a dark elven man. After a few years time, Leon, became the ultimate crowd pleaser known for his brutality and his hatred for humans.
What the "Fan'hel" does is something of no simple manner. It makes the user stronger, faster, more agile, he resists magic at levels even the Dwarves couldn't handle! The mark also absorbs mana from spells/the environment giving the bearer an increased healing rate and a higher pain threshold.
Though these benefits seem astounding the cost to obtain the "Fan'hel" is something no one should have to suffer through. The markings from the "Fan'hel" causes the bearer's skin to feel as if an acidic solution is constantly being poured over their entire body. Due to the veins being ripped from their body, they can no longer cast magic of any kind and in trying can cause severe injuries to themselves. Using the "Fan'hel", Leon becomes the Ultimate Champion of the arena, but all he wants is freedom.
One day he obtains that freedom when a mysterious void opens up and calls to him.
This story is a culmination of a few different stories that i kept writing and then scrapped turning them all into ONE. The Warnings are there incase i try something and content with anything sexual will be marked. I'm not a great writer nor probabley even a GOOD one, but i wanted to try! If people would like to leave tips or suggestions i would love that. If you hate it or like it i NEED to hear(read?) those things to become better, so please let me have it! Also, this is being written by me and only me at the moment so i have no proof-reader, so expect mistakes. I'm also SUPER DUPER incompetent so releases could be 0 a week or 2 or 6, it's whatever i feel like writing.
Oh and also if anyone wants to design a cover for this or draw what they THINK the characters look like (if i feel they're close and/or I like them) i'll notify you, make a link and give credit! (Not sure what that's worth, but eh.)
