Bludarious De'Tempoon
Bludarious was born and raised in eastern Dixie in a small farm town in the Swamps of Bayoo. Over the course of his life he became accustomed to the constant fighting and war between the Eastern Nations. When "Blu" was 14, an Amazonian raiding party came to his hoke town looking for all the first born sons and military aged males and he was forcefully conscripted into the Amazonian Navy. He and a few dozen "recruits" were put on a train to Savannah and were processed. After receiving their Amazonian "loyalty" brand, uniforms and arms, they were given a crash course in armed combat and sent to the front lines.
Most of the recruits didn’t believe in the wars to begin with and a small group stayed alive by hanging towards the back of the company and attending to the wounded, repairing and cleaning arms and running errands back and forth between officers. Blu made fast friends with a supply officer that grew up in the Dixielands. He spent the most of his conscription building, repairing and customizing weapons for the cavalry and other specialized companies, and of course had to test them all, gaining notoriety among those in power for his keen marksman skills.
After his mandatory 8 years of conscription was up, he was offered a voluntary enlistment contract. He hadn’t seen my family since his conscription and requested leave before he made his decision. When he returned home, he found his home had been wiped out with minimal survivors. Houses burned to the ground, women and children murdered, livestock killed, fields burned to the soil. An old drunk told him that the Cordobans had come through and wiped out everything and everyone, suspecting the town of being Amazonian sympathizers.
Having gone through his entire conscription not caring about the war and never picking a side, a new hatred for Cordoba ignited in his heart and that would define his path from then on.
Returning to his commander, Blu demanded that if he enlist that he would get to kill as many Cordobans as possible. He was made a Second Lieutenant in the Cavalry division and given command of a small unit specializing in guerrilla tactics. His hatred and desire for vengeance fueled his success in battle. His unit killed with impunity, maiming, torturing and desecrating anyone they came in contact with that supported Cordoba. Blu's unit started receiving lots of attention from the brass for their efficiency and they were quickly promoted and put in charge of a special weapons unit. The killing continued. After six years my anger had grown and my vengeance driven efficiency turned to a rage driven suicide mission. It was no longer about mission success, it was about body count. Word was spreading of the "Bloody Blues" unit throughout both Amazonian and Cordoban ranks.
During an ambush attempt The "Bloody Blues" were outnumbered and outgunned, but the opportunity to kill several high ranking Cordobans wouldn’t come like this again so Blu made the decision to proceed as planned. When the fighting was over, Blu was the only survivor. This battle would later become known as "Blu's Blunder".
For his failure brass "promoted" Blu to the rank of captain and relegated him to administrative duties in order to reign in some of the carnage he was causing. This didn’t set well with him and instead of capitulating to their desire to tame him, Blu resigned his commission to pursue his personal vendetta against Cordoba however he saw fit.
