Background/History
5000 years ago, the kingdom of Babylon prospered, thanks to the Royal Lineage ruling over them with justice and love. However, there was a prophecy saying that the Fifteenth King of Babylon would fall to the knees of the Kwisatz Haderach, a messianic super being which would bring the end of the lineage guided by the fabled Angel, a grotesque creature who unbeknownst to his following gives power to those who serve him in an attempt to bring forth the apocalypse. Adam was the Fifteenth King and, mistaking the prophecy into thinking that it meant that the chosen one would kill him, he sought to end the prophecy, becoming obsessed with it: since the prophecy foretold that only the first born of a first born would be birthing the Kwisatz Haderach, he ordered his subjects to bring him any newborn that fit such criteria and ruthlessly executed them, thus causing others to start calling him Adam the Black and be afraid for their safety as the king slowly descended into a power-hungry madness, going from a loved king to a detested dictator. After a long effort, the kingdom's best mages managed to seal away Adam, claiming that only a true son of Babylon could awaken him from his slumber, and banished the magic of the Angel, seeing how it led who was once a great man to folly.
5000 years later, while exploring an ancient site, the Babylon Rogues found the old throne room and accidentally awakened Adam, bringing him back into this world. Awake and angry, Adam sought to bring back the kingdom of Babylon, so sure that the prophecy has been defeated. But little does he know that Sky's son, StormCloud, is the first born of a first born, and therefore a perfect candidate to become the fabled Kwisatz Haderach and end his madness once and for all. Who knows, maybe the old good king is still inside him...
