You all asked for it so here it is, Rose Nevermore’s edgy backstory. (Edit: wow featured? Thanks so much!)
Rose was born in a cut throat society of thieves, vandals and murderers. Her family was poor but she made do. She lived contently with her mother who stole to provide for the family and her father, who was a cripple, stayed home and taught her everything about swordplay and weapons, all key features of knowledge for survival in her town.
One night, she awoke to violent flames engulfing her home. She ran to warn her parents but they were trapped. “Get out Rose! Just run! Take a sword and get out of this town!” Her Father screamed. Eyes full of tears she did as instructed. She sprinted out of the burning structure and ran away, never looking back. She was alone.
“What the hell? Is that a kid?” A paragon guard exclaimed. “Pfft yeh it is!” He said mounting his horse and galloping over to her. “Hey kid? Why the hell are you out here? Come with me”. Rose looked up at him and scowled “Like I would go with a lame ass like you!” She yelled, drawing her sword and pointing it at him. “So that’s how it’s gonna be huh? Tie her up! I’m She the boss will appreciate a new recruit” he hissed. Rose fell to the ground as a rope wrapped around her legs. “Get off me! I’ll kill you!” She yelled struggling. “Shut up! We’ll see if you have the same attitude when the boss sees you”
Rose was taken to a large palace. There were blue carpets and huge crystal chandeliers lining the corridors. The guard opened a door revealing a tall white haired man sitting in what looked like a throne. “Sir! We’ve brought a possible new recruit for the army!” The guard said shakily. The man raised an eyebrow and spoke in a deep voice. “What you’ve brought me, is a child” he said “Kill it”. That’s when a white haired woman walked in. “ No, don’t kill her, she could be useful. Train her and she can be a guardian for My child” she said softly. “Yes ma’am!” The guard yelled, taking Rose to what looked like a training room. Training dummies on the walls, targets and bows lying around. “Dame paragon wants this kid trained up to be a guardian for her son” He said pushing rose into the room. “Understood” a woman said, her voice was croaky And beaten. The guard left the room.

“Today your going to start you duties as guardian to the young master Paragon” Rose’s trainer said. Rose looked quite frankly, dead. Her skin was pale, her eyes emotionless and unmoving. “Yes ma’am” she murmured. She walked Rose over to a room that was large and well decorated. “Dame Paragon! The training of the guardian you requested has been completed successfully!” She shouted. “Hm Good, I’ll bring Don out now”. She left the room for a moment before returning with a short, thin and white haired boy. “This is Don, from no on you are his guardian” Don’s mother said. Rose adjusted her posture and spoke “I will protect you and the Paragon name through night and day thick and thin” she said saluting. Don just looked at her and frowned. “Ok then, I’ll leave you two to get to know each other” she said, walking out of the room, leaving Don and Rose alone. “Who are you?” Don said snarking. “I Am Rose Amalia Nevermore, I am your guardian, I am 9 years of age and ready to serve your every need, want and request” she said remaining in a salute. Don sighed “Good luck with that, every other guardian I’ve had has either been executed by my father or killed themselves, so how long are you going to last?” He growled. “I will remain your guardian until you either discard me or if you die”
Don sighed again “like I said, good luck”
“God do you have to follow me everywhere?” Don snapped. “Yes, under order of your mother I’m to stay by your side at all times” Rose replied. Don turned around swiftly “Well here’s a new order from me, leave me alone! The fact my mother insists on me having a guardian proves that she thinks I’m weak!” Don stopped for a moment before continuing “I’m a disappointment”
“Master paragon, if I may say, I think you’re doing everything right. You are just a child after all” Rose said
“Heh, thanks I guess”
(There you have it Rose’s early :b: ackstory)
