Sir Maelstrom



Sir Maelstrom is a villain and playable character from Pray for Death.

Story
Sir Maelstrom came from humble origins, being raised as a Christian and becoming a knight. Rising through the ranks, he eventually became the Master at Arms for Sir Percy of Wallachia. However, with his knighthood eventually came a insatiable bloodlust. Upon being put in charge of the Wallachia army, Sir Maelstrom renounces Christianity and turns to Satanism, going on a rampage through Europe and Africa along with his soldiers and killing anyone who dared stand on his path.

In 1462AD his army clashes against the Greek army. After the battle he summons all of his 150 officers and executes all of them. His soldiers immediately turn against him as a result, but Sir Maelstrom, having turned into a demonic force of destruction, slaughters all of them, deciding he didn't need the help of mere mortals anymore. After a year, a massive army composed of trained soldiers and mercenaries gathered by various European countries finally defeat Sir Maelstrom and capture him, immediately putting him to death at the stake. Before dying he vows to return and take vengeance upon all of them.

With his soul on Limbo, Sir Maelstrom receives Death's invitation for his tournament, which he immediately accepts, eager to keep on his promise of vengeance.
