Graf and Rissy's Saga
A Bit Of History
Literally translated my name means Count
Johann Angel of Death Blessed by God.

I was created as an angel. I fell in love with a
very lovely, intelligent, and beautiful woman,
but my brothers did not approve and so tried
to kill me, and they did her. They had me
chained and used the whip of Angelic gold on
me. I heard the mockery my supposed
brothers made of my love for the one I called
Alma ( for I felt she was a part of my soul).
Their mockery of my love for her and the
destruction they were inflicting on her was
more than I could bear. I mustered all of my
strength and tore apart the shackles. Fire shot
from my eyes as I grabbed a gold sword and
destroyed them. I carried my love in my arms
and we stared into each other's eyes until hers
grew lifeless.

I was handfasted to that woman. Oh she is
very much alive and well. My true mother the
Goddess had created us for each other or so
we believed, but things changed and it has
been discovered that Rissy was the one made
for me. This was not immediately apparent
until Rissy and I discovered that we could not
go on without each other and always came to
be with one another no matter what has
happened.
For my protection my mother made me
human for awhile, due to other of my kind
wanting to avenge my brothers. I was given
birth by a woman who hid me in the woods
while I was still a babe during a serious battle.
I was found and raised by the sorceress Serea.  
This wonderful lady taught me love and
magic for many years. This is when I found
Rissy. She was part of Sera's clan and we were
to be married until a Vampyress came . She
had come to my mother asking for assistance
while I was out gathering wood. Rissy had
come to me due to a premonition and we
sealed our bond as soon as we finished, I
heard my mother's screams and rushed back
to our home. When I arrived, I saw mother
lying there dying and I turned and attacked
the Vampyress. Her nails and teeth were
ripping me apart and I felt the wetness of
blood under my ribcage and I knew I had to
somehow end this or we would both die.
Where the strength and quickness came from
I know not. All I saw was a terrified look on
the Vamp's face as she suddenly burst into
flames. When I finally reached my mother
she looked at me and said, "It's time my
son." Her soul reached out for me as we flew
to Paradise. Many came to minister me, but
others cursed me. "It's not right for you to
care about those weaklings.", they hissed at
me. "You are an angel a much greater being
than any other. Why would you want to
become human? They are nothing."
