He was a boy with no name, growing up in starvation and misery. He grew up on the streets, yet he always dreamed of someday becoming a knight. Then, when the Baroness made a visit to town, he thought he had his chance. He boldly stepped forward, offering his life in her service if she would allow him to train as a knight. Although she agreed, she used him instead as a mere slave, condemned to a life of scrubbing floors in her castle.

As time passed, this young man despaired of ever becoming a knight and escaped. Eventually, he made his way to a temple of Dgrth, the demon lord of warriors. The demon appeared before him, offering to give him the skills of combat and stalking in exchange for his soul. He was also offered a name: Stalker. The man agreed to the trade, little dreaming that Dgrth would take his soul while he still lived. Thus he became Stalker, a deadly warrior who can feel no joy in revenge, forever searching for his own soul…
