Nocturok: God Of Vengeance--Prelude

In the time before time began, the gods fought a terrible war. How long the war lasted, none now know, although the signs of the war can still be seen through out the galaxy.

With the war over, the Gods mourned those that had fallen in battle. Unknown to them, one of those they mourned had survived, lost in the cold reaches of space.

During the dieing days of the war, Nocturok, the God of Vengeance was fighting against his enemies when his soul was stripped from his body and placed in the amulet he wore, along with the souls of those he had yet to avenge. Defeated, the amulet and his body were hurled into the far reaches of space.

They soon drifted apart and the amulet floated through the cosmos for eons. His story became legend, and the legend became myth. Soon the name Nocturok, which use to strike fear into the hearts of evildoers, was lost to time.

For centuries uncounted the amulet drifted through space, until it came into orbit of a small blue world. Captured by its gravitational pull, it blazed a fiery path through the atmosphere, crashing into the ground with a deafening impact.

And that is where the legend of Nocturok begins anew.
