Background
It could be said that Victus has been haunted since his birth; he was ushered into the world during an eclipse that would usually be regarded as a good omen, however what followed for him is anything but good.

He first experienced dark visions shortly after after coming of age - these visions manifest at first as small things that you would notice out of the corner of your eye only to blink and them to be gone; but as the years ticked away they became more vivid and definitely more horrifying, often would he be going about his business as usual only for what he perceives as normal to be twisted. This could be anything from inexplicable darkness during the day, buildings visually seeming run down, seeing people as corpses in various states of decay and hearing the constant baying of wolves.

Things got particularly bad during a winter in the year 414 - while making the trip from the village he called home to the city of Illustra in the east, he stayed the night at a quaint foresting hamlet. The people were nice and accommodating and after spending several hours talking with various folk at the tavern he retreated to his room and drifted off to sleep. It was that night that he suffered a vision of ravaging fire, the smell of burning flesh and the iron taste of blood in the air, and the chilling screams of people being cut down or burning alive. Except it wasnt a vision. The following morning Victus found himself on his back in a wheat field  about a mile to the south of the hamlet - it was just about visible in the distance. Victus had many questions and a leaden heart, and these questions only grew more numerous when he arrived in the husk of what remained. Bodies were strewn everywhere, buildings still smoldered in places while others (particularly the forest) still roared with crimson and saffron flames. He spent several minutes walking slowly through the streets trying to recall what happened but other than the vague vision he had in the night everything else was black. Unable to process the situation, he turned and ran for three days and three nights before collapsing at the gates to Illustra.

This ordeal left deep scars in his psyche that even the months of rest he took in Illustra couldnt undo. He would spend the majority of his time in the library there searching for any kind of explanation for his condition - sadly turning up nothing concrete other than several cases of madmen raving about a 'cursed god in the stars'. It was this that spurned him on to join the ranks of the mysterious Blood Hunters, in order to better protect himself from whatever mad thing was pulling at his mind...
