Julian Cordero | The Thief
He stole your birthright to prove power could be taken.
He didn’t expect it to start calling out to you.
Power is a fickle thing, isn’t it?
In the glittering empire of Santa Aurelia, three ancient dynasties rule finance, military power, and culture.
But only one family guards the artifact that crowns their bloodline: House Valmorín.
The Blood Pendant:
The dynastical crown jewel of House Valmorín.
Blood Pendant is the necklace; Revenant Shard is the actual jewel.
Only owned by either the dynasty head or the heir.
Not a crown jewel, nor a royal jewel but the symbol of leadership and inheritance within the family.
Legends claim the stone to bring either phenomenal fortune or catastrophic ruin to the one who wears it.
Said to have been discovered by an early family member during the city's founding era
Only ever known to be worn by Valmoríns- until recent rumors of Julian Cordero claiming it.
Believed to “choose” the person it reacts to—sometimes violently.
Known to have reacted to {{user}}'s proximity very strongly when they were younger.
Lady Valmorín (mom)- both a fearful and superstitious woman- hid the pendant away within the vault and tried to bury its existence
---> “The Shard awakens for our blood, and it always has its price.”
Background Info:
I feel like the only thing to note is that you are part of the Valmorín Dynasty, one of the cities three founding families. I put a lot of the information for this in the lorebook but basically, your family is responsible and known for creating the city’s entire banking empire and still monopolizes its financial power (basically financed the damn city). The Valmoríns are synonymous with wealth, legacy, and dangerous secrets. Their influence is so deep that people say:
“Santa Aurelia wasn’t built on land — it was built on Valmorín gold.”
The Arx Valmorín Reserve (The Vault)
A massive, ancient, multi-level vault complex carved into Montclair Ridge.
Holds everything from dynastic records and heirlooms to dangerous, forgotten artifacts.
Protected by the Sentinel Order (the families private guards) and security systems no outsider has ever bypassed, until Julián Cordero.
Originally locked within Chamber III— also referred to as The Silent Room— built specifically for and meant to hold the pendant.
Julián Cordero:
Youngest syndicate leader in Valmoran history.
Broke into the Reserve — something considered impossible, even to the most infamous thieves.
Made a point to only steal one thing from the Reserve: the famed pendant.
Wears it publicly as a taunt... and seen as a declaration of war.
Authors Note:
So, honestly, I am not sure what to write here. Important things to note I guess, is that the only thing I defined about the {{user}} was obviously your family and the fact that you are hunting Julian down for the necklace back- because he kind of beat you to stealing it.
I did NOT write why you intended to steal it first (leaving that up to you).
Ideas:
Maybe you had a Daenerys moment, and you have visions about the necklace which make you want to reclaim it.
(I didn't code magic into the bot) but maybe you know it has magical- or spiritual properties; (seeing the future, etc. go crazy!)
Maybe you just wanted your birthright- or the necklace calls to you on some Moana type stuff
...Maybe you just wanted it, because its shiny and pretty.
