== The Shadow over Hell's Point Year 1,080==
After the groups in exile settled and have several encounters with the strange, two particular families took to investigation of magic to defend themselves. The Kainfaust Vilebloods lead by Count Azkelon and Countess Stella and the Flaming Avengers led by the brother Gnauraill and Thengur of the Reintic Clan. 

Initially the research was a joint effort, with both looking for a way to enhance their bodies through magic to allow them to fight. When this research come to a head, they completed a ritual that would enhance the bodies. The first to attempt this ritual were two young men, Kodorn of the Reintic Clan and Sarventus of the Kainfaust. 

After the ritual, there seems to be no effect on the two and they returned to their work. But what they did not account for the unnatural energies that isolates this island. These unnatural energies, twisted the souls of the two and damned the souls of their entire clans. In the night, the mage of the Reintic Clan, Kodorn, tossed in this bed, until the effects of the ritual finished its effects. Becoming the first cursed Vileblood, he slaughtered most of his fellow mages in a frenzy of madness and rage brought on by the ritual. He then left the town, in search of sanctuary in the woods. Having been the only person left of the researchers, the slaughter of his fellow mages was placed on Sarventus. For such a heinous act, he was executed the next morning. 

To his own surprise, Sarventus awoke in a coffin next to where he would be buried. Rising up from it, he realized that his body cold, his heart did not beat but he still moved. Realizing that his presence in the town would be a terror to many, he buried his empty coffin and made for the woods. After some time, he returns to the town to collect resources for research when he sees it plagued by demonic beasts. Finding himself in a position to attempt to gain favor with his people again, he fights off the beasts with the help of the other survivors. The battle concludes with Sarventus against the largest of the beasts, later learned to be the afflicted Kodorn. These two duel like two beasts, with monstrous strength and unyielding vigor. Eventually the two are so wounded, that they can no longer act. The beasts on Kodorn’s side, carry him away while the survivors carry off Sarventus. 

After a three other similar encounters, the two clans agree to never cross paths but establish groups to combat the other in case, suing the same rituals which made the origionals. The Kainfaust Vilebloods, are a group of elite warrior nobles who relish the finer things in life, and fight with all manor of weapons but are cursed with enfeeblement unless they drain the life essence of their fellow men. The Flaming Avengers, a order of monks who are cursed or are within the cursed family who has sworn to fight the beast within and without. They use holy weapons and magic but few survive as their curse gives them a maddening bloodlust during combat. While not openly admitting to it, these two continue the fight. Assured that the destruction of the other will bring an end to the curse, this has only proven to perpetuate the curse as new damned souls join the ranks regularly. 

This conflict eventually is what allows Sarventus to create the first Undead Golem Ship and sail back to the mainland, through the Curtain of Death as he is no longer alive.
