Biography
Artorius Veritas was once a renowned knight, a hero who slayed monsters and aided the weak. But when he fell to an ancient vampire, he became what he once hunted.
Though he escaped his sire, his fellow knights saw only a monster. Desperate, he turned to the Necromancers Guild, offering his service in exchange for the blood he needed to survive. He still fights, but his unrelenting fury poisons both friend and foe as he struggles to accept what he has become.
Specialization
He starts with the “Masterful Berserk” spell. This version of the spell affects all creatures adjacent to the target. The cost of this spell is reduced by 1 mana for every 3 hero level(s).
