Day 299. Boulderdash


Legend speaks of a boy up in the mountains made of stone. "BALDERDASH!" The people of the village would cry, oh how wrong they were. One day a child got lost whilst hiking with her father up in the mountain. She was moments away from being killed by a pack of wolves when a silhouette of a young boy with glowing eyes scared the canines away. He was the rock boy, and he became best friends with the girl. After leading her home the two remained friends. She would sneak out at night to play with him. But eventually she grew old whereas he remained forever the same. But he made it his mission to watch over her family and her village, for the rest of his days.

Day 123. Stone Atlas


The mighty Stone Atlas was a man who dreamt of being a God. He wanted to be held in as high a regard as the titan Atlas. The God's mocked his enthusiasm and tricked him, pretending to endow him with great powers. They caused his body to grow stone skin which could protect him from any weapon, as well as an atlas stone to carry around as a weapon itself. But these came at a price. The stone skin caused his body to distort itself, leaving him deformed and hunched as it slowly consumed him. The giant atlas stone was his life force. If he strayed from it for too long he would begin to whither, and his natural skin would lose all it's colour. This could have turned Stone Atlas into a very resentful and hateful being. But instead he was humbled, and chose to fight the injustice done to him. For as long as his forever broken and heavy body would hold out, and until the day his entire body would be consumed by distorted rock, he would battle the cruel ways of the gods.

Day 120. Soul Sucker


Many many years ago a sorcerer would devour the souls of men in return for everlasting life. As you can imagine man cottoned onto this fairly quickly but because the sorcerer had consumed so much he could not be killed. Instead, using light magic, they forced the sorcerer's soul into a rock where it would remain forever... that is... so long as someone didn't find it and utter the counter spell. Unfortunately for mankind somebody did stumble across the stone thousands of years later, and quite innocently said the word which would unlock the monster within. Unable to take human form, the sorcerer's body long decayed, the sorcerer instead appeared as a spirit, forever hungry for human.
