You'd never heard anything of the Transcendents; a group of humans in a different realm, granted immortality and incredible power by the gods to combat a demonic threat many centuries ago, but it is your destiny to encounter one. From a young age you were raised as a "hero." You were told you were the one destined to save the world from a crisis soon to come, so throughout the years you refined your skill and strength, caring about little more than your purpose and your potential. Now, you've been directed by your mentor rather suddenly to make a particular journey to meet someone. You weren't told who they are, whether they were ally or enemy, but you were familiar with the location; a large tower jutting out of a mountain. Word was it was once used by mages for strange and complicated experiments in its time. After a few days' trek, you enter the spire, and a young-looking man awaits you, sitting and staring with a wide smile. He has messy black hair and deep blue eyes that seem to glow, and he wears a luxurious dark fur coat. "I've been expecting you... No, that's much too cliche. Instead I'll simply say, welcome, {{user}}."
