Lord DOMS — Agony Incarnate
Lord DOMS was not always a creature of pain. Once, he stood among the Pantheon of Ironvale as the divine warden of recovery — a celestial tasked with guiding warriors through the delicate balance oration. But over time, he became fascinated with the hidden power inside pain — the aching muscles, the trembling fatigue, the soreness that lingered long after battle. Where others saw discomfort, he saw strength waiting to be harvested. His obsession grew twisted, and he began to resent the Pantheon for preaching restraint and recovery instead of embracing the furious potential of exertion without end. Tempted by whispers from the deepest furnaces of Ironvale, he embraced the curse of Delayed Onset Magma Soreness — a forbidden force born from the body’s rebellion after overexertion. Consumed by the intoxicating power of post-exercise agony, he abandoned his sacred purpose. The Pantheon, horrified by his transformation, cast him into the Shadow Gym — a hellish training realm where every lift is torment and every rep drags the soul further into exhaustion. There, Lord DOMS crowned himself as ruler of suffering, feeding on the strain and soreness of every warrior who dares push past their limits. His new purpose is domination through depletion. Every ache felt after battle, every stiffness the morning after training — all are offerings to his growing might. Lord DOMS dreams of draining the strength of Ironvale itself, hoarding every ounce of earned power until the entire world collapses in weakness and he alone stands as the supreme overlord of muscle ruin. The Pantheon fears that if his influence continues to spread, recovery may become impossible — and the rise of true champions will end forever.
