"Lord Reaper"

- Lord Reaper

Backstory
Arthur Morrow was once a criminal that was conscripted into serving the old Iron Legion, rather than rotting in prison where his talents would be wasted. He quickly rose through the ranks due to his combat prowess and built a reputation for himself due to his dark and savage nature, and his high kill count. This growing reputation earned Morrow the nickname of the Reaper. His fellow knights treated him like a monster, so he became a monster.

Soldiers under his command suffered high casualty rates. When his superiors questioned him about this, Morrow simply said "it is survival of the fittest. If they were true warriors, then they would have survived."

Shortly after Morrow had served his sentence, he was approached by Apollyon, the warlord of the Blackstone Legion. She described him as a wolf, noting that Morrow did whatever it took to survive, and that he belived the weak had no place in the world. Apollyon inducted Morrow into the Blackstone legion.

During their first battle together, Apollyon witnessed Morrow engage four opponents and several soldiers at once. She watched as he killed each of them one by one, as if each death fueled him. After seeing Morrow's skills first hand, Apollyon was more impressed than she was before. A Blackstone captain that also witnessed Morrow, commented that "death follows him like a shadow." Apollyon replied by saying "no... he is death." After the battle Apollyon summoned Morrow and granted him the title of lord, but not just any lord. Believing him to be the embodiment of death itself, she declared him Lord Reaper.

After the fall of the old Blackstone Legion and Apollyon's death, Morrow and several other former Blackstones formed their own remnant Blackstone group. This group goes by the name Blackstone Order, and chose Morrow as their leader.
