Pre History
A battle-scarred veteran of countless wars, Kull's weapon is for sale to the highest bidder. An orphan with an unknown family history, Kull was raised by gypsy peasants in the rugged Italian foothills. He learned to fight by experience, throwing off marauding brigands. He found he fought most effectively with the morning star, a devastating weapon that causes massive internal injuries.
In his late teens, the Covenant of Seven outlawed gypsies and hired mercenaries to purge them throughout the land. One cold November night, a group of mercenaries ambushed and killed his gypsy clan. Seeing that he was a skilled warrior, the mercenaries offered to spare Kull's life if he joined them. Impressed with the quality of their armor and weapons, he agreed, lured by the prospect of earning real money.
Kull honed his skills and became one of the most savage mercenaries in Europe. Over the years, though, all the other members of the mercenary group that found him have met with untimely or accidental deaths. Kull is the only survivor.
Now alone in the world, his weapon is for sale to the highest bidder. He has now been hired by one of the Seven to kill Asmodeus and bring back the Mace of Tanis.
Is he in it for the money, or will he finally decide that his honor has no price?
