User blog comment:SCORNFUL1/Audience With A Vampire: Ask Armata De'Sange/@comment-30014014-20170914031216/@comment-26288702-20170920180635

"What does my kind have? We have immortality and power." Armata smirks. "But even we are not above reproach. My torment was not at the hands of the council, it was my father's doing. He lied and fed the council falsehoods. Their decision was to be expected, in fact, it was necessary. Vampires should never war with eachother. With the power we hold, more devastation than results would be created, as we have learned in the past."

"In a time long before even my birth, my realm was consumed in total war. Clans and houses fought furiously with one another. With the great powers we each carry, cities and countries would reduced to rubble after one skirmish. What is the point of war, if the spoils have been burnt to ash? Once a peace was struck, the newly formed council made it law that Vampires never again kill each other, for greater goods."

"My brother was the one who broke that law, because he wanted to remain the favored son. During my trial my father no doubt stricken with grief did what he did, and sought my incarceration for killing his first born. The council did what was needed. In their eyes I was a traitor to my family and my kind, had they have known the full story, perhaps history would have been different."

Armata's aura flares and the sky outside turns blood red.

"I sought vengeance long ago, I sought to right the wrong inflicted on me. Ask the mutt, Dr.Ibrahim or Praetor about that. I was about to tear this world asunder, overthrow the Demon Lord, return monsters to their true selves and lead a savage campaign upon my realm!"

His aura dies down and sky returns to normal.

"But things change. I see now the council was mislead and they sentenced me accordingly. Now, I care more for this Covenant, than a misguided act of retribution."
