[OOC] Immortality's End - Prodigy Prophecy (Page 2)

Alright so I'm going to do this a little differently than normal. As our opening post (or rather, YOUR opening post) I would like to see the following things (think of this like a writing prompt):

Your character has awoken to a new day, and goes through whatever morning routine they require.
Introduce one or two side-characters that are important to your character.
At some point during their day, they encounter a Primordial somewhere outside. The encounter is solo; no one else is with them at the time. A Primordial is a strange amorphous black creature, kind of like a shadow sticking out of the ground (about human height, two white eyes). They are harmless and disappear very quickly upon being encountered. Legend holds that encountering one is an omen of future adventure and danger. Normally they are found only in the deepest depths of the earth in man-made environments (i.e, mines, tombs), and so finding one above ground seems especially strange.
Someone brings your character a letter addressed solely to them. For those of Mecrundyr, it is signed by numerous Republic leaders. For Kerenza, it is signed by numerous members of the Council of Ten. For Wei, it is signed by the Supreme Empress. The letter describes how the associated organization has seen ability in your character, and its relation to the prophecy. They wish for you to accept an appointment to a new organization being formed between the regions of the world as leaders; essentially, the generals of your own armies, working together for a common purpose. (For Wei, the letter will seem very roundabout and insincere)


Instead of an opening post from the GM, I'd like to see you all post with these prompts in mind, after which the first short "arc" will be meeting with fellow leaders to discuss the coming events. If you've got any question just tag me!

Primordials are human-height shadows that slink along the ground. They stare back, unblinking, with two white circles for eyes. They seem to lack intelligence, and appear randomly and without warning, generally in very, very deep places in the earth. You might expect, if you are extremely lucky, to see one mulling around in an ancient mine or deep tomb. Whenever first seen, they generally disappear into nothing after a few seconds. To see one twice is unheard of. Legends claim that a Primordials' presence brings the fate of dangerous adventure to those that witness it.

Myth holds that before the existence of souls, Primordials roamed an ice-covered world without purpose or thought. They were diminished in number when the gods created beings with souls (humans, elves, orcs, etc), and over time they disappeared into the deep. They are considered harmless, though a few fairytales speak about primordials that have stolen away children, and in one particular tale native to Mercundyr, even defeated a Baelwill knight, stealing their soul and preventing the arch-priestess from resurrecting them. Baelwill, of course, punished those spreading said tale.

To those who have dedicated their lives to scholarly works, snippets of information may be found hinting that vampires are actually primordials given "life" by the gods. Their bloodthirst, it is believed, stems from the fact that they can only maintain their own pseudo-soul by draining the spirit from others.
