A Flask and a Man
Appearance: A medium-sized silver hipflask that's designed to look like the outside is made of scales. On the bottom of the flask is the engraved words 'Drink your emotions and self away'.
Making: Was made by a man experimenting with his power. He imbued his power into this flask for the purpose of it acting similar to the ability, emotional enhancement. This ability increased the user's strength propositional to the intensity of the feeling they were going through. This experiment was a success and a failure. It had the intended effect and more.
Power(Sacrifice The Power Of Chaos): The power the flask contains is a limited version of its maker. The power it holds is to sacrifice a current emotion the user is feeling for a power increase. This can be channeled into a certain parameter of the user for a more concentrated increase. This item's power regrettably extends to some unintended territory. The power can be used to sacrifice not just emotions but also memories and parts of the soul, allowing the user to give up an emotion permanently. This causes them to become stunted with emotions, killing off someone's ability to feel an emotion like joy. When used it will cause a backlash according to the amount of sacrifice.
Users: The item in question has been passed to many in its history. But only one is of great interest. His name was Rudy a man of revenge. He was a young adult man of handsome appearance with red blonde hair and slightly tanned skin. He was talented with the blade and known for his speed. When he was 23 he had a wife and a young daughter who he loved with his life. Dropping the pursuit of the mastery of the blade for them. But this changed when on a job hunting boar and deer for money.
When he came to his village his home was ravaged by bandits marked with a flag his family burnt just like the homes of other family's. This caused him and others to move to a nearby village as refugees. When the shock cleared from him he was engulfed in grief for 9 years. Constantly drowning in his grief for losing the people he cared most for. Or blaming himself for not being with them and instead was hunting. This caused him to spiral into him becoming a drunk bottling and drinking his feelings and himself away.
A cycle of him hunting or doing other miscellaneous jobs to buy more booze, a life of repetitiveness.
Rudy eventually found out after a hunting job for more coin that another village was raided, burned, and marked with a flag with 8 swords arranged in a circle just like others. Over years villages were terrorized by a raider clan known as the black demon family, the tearecks.
He wasn't a social man so he didn't know about the fact because he never listened to news until he overheard people talking about it in a bar. And now shockingly he knew about the teareck clan. he had no clue about this so called infamous clan of demons but he did know they took everything from him. He was going to destroy these people. Rudy sadly knew he was only a man nothing like the legendary figures, he wasn't a warrior like Greg or a king like Issei. But that changed when some old man a master appraiser who with his power told him of the power his flask held.
Over the course of a year and him fragrant abuse of his power and being. He destroyed most of their clan one by one until he meet their boss Florence. During this time he has already lost a year of memories from his wife from overusing the flask because of difficult enemies. The thing to note is that the only difficult thing about the others was their numbers and size they were normal. Florence is truly powerful especially with his ability to increase his power with short explosive results. He channels this power into his gauntlets that emit fire for more power, turning a campfire into an inferno. Florence is awakened while he is while similar is still basically a normal man. During this fight, he is easily overpowered, burned and is forced to use his flask. He only wanted one thing at that moment it was to kill him even at the cost of what he has left.
This destroys most of his memories and emotion. He lost most memories of loved ones except for a few fleeting moments and thoughts about them. ultimately the only thing that kept him going was the feeling of devotion he still had.
He then proceeded to dodge and overwhelm Florence with still great difficulty. He ended this fight by cutting both arms, one leg, and slicing his throat. As he watched him bleed out he made his last statement at what can be called a person. "all my love for my wife and daughter gone. Most of my feelings of hate for you are gone. All of my life from my mother to you gone. All I know is to kill you and only you. I only know and feel the emotion to kill you and I'll follow this feeling. I am fueled by the flame of devotion and a spark of hateful fire." As Rudy watches for 2 minutes Florence struggling to live, blood pouring out gurgling from his mouth until he finally ended.
The moment Florence died is when Rudy died. Rudy was holding onto the notion of killing Florence and when he was finished he succeeded and lost. Rudy felt nothing now no devotion, no hate, no love, and not even sadness or grief. Rudy shortly went into a backlash causing his body to break down. It was so extreme it was as if his body broke and then broke again and again. Rudy had no will to even try to stay conscious and his last moments were empty all but an escaping memory of a redhead woman and small blonde girl.
Maker: The maker of the flask was Damion Darkwood. A man who was known as the leader of hell.
