Sven Lore & Background Story

Sven is the bastard son of a Vigil Knight and a forbidden Pallid Meranth. Outcast from birth, he forged his own code of honor and wields his father's sword with unmatched fury. He fights alone by choice, trusting no banner but his own — a philosophy that puts him at odds with Omniknight, whose unwavering faith in the Omniscience represents everything Sven rejected about knightly orders.
