Malina Malzeno The Tragic Paladin
(Malina is based on the monster called Malzeno, from Monster
Hunter Rise Sunbreak. Malzeno is the Flagship Monster and Malzeno is an Elder
Dragon. Malina is depicted as an Anthropomorphic version of Malzeno, the images
that are going to be shown of feral Malzeno and feral Primordial Malzeno are
just as a reference to show how she looked back in her knight days, and how her
appearance changed within the years later, keep in mind the Main image and reference
of Malina is the Very first image shown here, in other words, the one above
this text. Malina will have the same abilities, stats, and resistances Malzeno
has, she does not have any magical power of sorts or anything, everything she
has, abilities are from Malzeno as but she will be given some abilities due to
her being depicted as an anthro Malzeno and a knight as well.)

Malina, the last member of a very honorable, and skillful
knight order. This knight order, was well known among the kingdom as the most
skilled and strongest knights of the kingdom, but now, the order as well as the
kingdom was no more.
Back in the old days
She once was the top knight of that order, and her appearance
was way different back in those times. Malina was a skilled knight, with elegant silver scales, graceful
and swift movements, with wings and tail used gracefully in combat. Despite the
fact having very peculiar wings and tail, she relies on her inherent strength
and agility, as well as abilitites with the sword but not be fooled, if she is
disarmed, she will use her bladed wings and tail on the fight.
She was so
skillful that she managed to get to the highest of the ranks, Silver
Paladin and soon she was known as the Platinum Knight. She always
wore this tittle and name with honor, always living up to her tittle and rank
until one fatal day. She faced an enemy so strong that left her in a very
critical state during the battle. She was at the edge of dying and she was
struggling to get up and also to keep up the encounter. She had to finish this
enemy or else the few towns and villages that were left untouched and under the
protection of the order would be destroyed by this enemy.
This enemy was well known as the archdemon of the
abyss or at least that was the tittle the leftovers of the kingdom gave it as
soon as they discover it after its first attack but soon, an official name was
given to it Gaismagorm, a colossal monster well known for destroying
entire civilizations, massive and
visually intimidating, with a dark, almost volcanic exoskeleton covered in
jagged, rock-like armor. Its body features glowing orange cracks and fiery
veins that pulse with energy, resembling molten lava trapped within its form.It
has six massive, clawed limbs, two primary arms used for powerful attacks and
four smaller legs for support. Its head is adorned with sharp, curved horns and
glowing eyes, contributing to its menacing look, and a long, segmented tail
ends in a sharp tip capable of devastating attacks.
One day, a huge loud roar made out of nowhere made
echo all around the entire kingdom, and after it, out of nowhere a huge crater
opened on the outskirts of the kingdom. The kingdom wasted no time on starting
to investigate this strange event, but little they know that this was only the beginning.
Later that night when the Moon turned a blood moon, small
blood red bats came out from the crater, and infested the kingdom. Only a few
hours passed after the event and half the population of the kingdom were dead, sucked
dry of their blood by there weird looking bats. The morning was not close yet,
but the kingdom was already in chaos and the bats were gone, like if they had fulfilled
their purpose, but before the kingdom and the knights could regroup and plan
something, the next even came in, this time in a form of a large monster emerging
from the crater that wasted no time and started to devastated the kingdom, the
knights answered this attack as fast as they could, but little they could do against
a being this big and devastating. Its roars were powerful enough to blow away
and destroy buildings. Its movements were slow but powerful enough to make the
land crack and tremble with each step.
Despite the disadvantages, the knight order managed to
make the monster retreat, but at a huge cost, as most of the order were dead,
only a very few remained, among them, was Malina. The kingdom wasted no time in
preparing a group with the last knights of the order to make a counter attack
before this monster could attack again, they decided to go after it before it
could come after them, it was when; while planning, they came with a name, Gaismagorm,
The Archdemon of the Abyss. It was when with a stupid plan but a plan at
least, the few knights of the order wen down the crater to face the archdemon.
The fight was bloody and brutal, the archdemon of the
abyss was way to powerful, more than the knights had anticipated, they knew the
fight was going to be hard, but never knew they beasts was going to be that
strong. The fight took hours, one by one, the last remaining knights started to
fall until the last knight, Malina was standing right in front of the best,
sweating, panting bleeding, wounded but still standing. She charged at the
beast but with a simple tail attack that she did not see coming, sent her back
towards the wall of boulders, the hat was strong enough to shatter her last remaining
bones that were allowing her to stand, a small crater created on the spot where
she crashed preventing her from falling onto the ground. She spat blood, and
panted heavily, barely handling the pain as she was close to losing consciousness
as the archdemon made its approach to her, all while she cursed herself and her
lack of strength to defeat this beast.
The enemy delivered the killing blow but, knowing she
couldn’t surrender and that she had to finish this enemy, something happened, one
of the red bats came from the huge shell of the beast, it was when understood,
this beast had sent those bats when the crater first opened, still the reason
of why was unknown to her, but little it mattered as she was about to be killed
by the archdemon, an attack that soon stopped when this huge beast noticed one
of its bats going towards Malina.
This bat rested on Malina’s shoulder and soon it bit
her bloody neck, it was when a swarm of more bats came from the shell of the
archdemon; all while the dying knight was barely conscious. What a way of
dying, not by the claw of the beast but dying as bat food. She closed her eyes
ready to accept her fate but as more bats started to bite all over her body,
she felt something, like a source of power that was coming from the bats, were
they saving her, helping her or was this just something these bats had as a
secondary effect of their bite, but before she could figure out, she came with
a quick plan, she would make a pact with these parasite-like creatures and
blood pact!
Her blood, for unlimited power, she offered her blood
and body to these, small parasitic-like creatures that were already feeding on
her, and in exchange for her blood and for offering her body to host them, they
would give her unlimited power, and with this, the once noble Platinum Paladin
was corrupted, though she did it with noble intentions, this would start the
end of everything for her.
Thanks to her new power, she got a new form called Bloody form, she retains her elegant, silver-scaled form, resembling a regal knight with crimson highlights but no excessive corruption. When she entered this form thanks to her pact, some of her wounds started to heal, at least what seem to be minial wounds, and broken bones slightly healed as well, allowing her to move and continue the fight, but nothing changed at during the fight, at all, although she managed to land some serious hits on Gaismagorm, but still the hits she was receiving were brutal, she would be dead if it wasnt for that pact she made, but she also noticed something, the more damage she was receiving, then the more bats were going after her, intil a small swarm was basically around her, it was when realized, what on earth did she do.
More bats latched at her body making her have another
change, while the first one was barely noticable, this one made her look more
different tan before. Yeah, she got another form, a form that son will be known
as Bloodlust form.
The bats
begin to swarm more intensely around her, and parts of her body, especially the
wings and chest, gain a faint crimson glow as the parasitic energy increases.
She became more aggressive and faster, using stronger and more frequent attacks.
The fact was starting to have a turn towards her favor, but at the Price of
starting to loose herself as her corruption was taking over and over. Harder
and more precise blows were giving to the huge beast, and yet, this beasts
was doing the same to Malina, landing fatal blows that would had kill her if it
wasnt for her new power.
The table
was turning, but yet the fight continued but when Malina, received a powerful
fatal blow, it was when these bats gave her another final form. A farm that
would have the name of Bloodening form.
In this
form, she reaches a fully corrupted state where her entire body glows with a
violent crimson energy. The bats completely envelop it, and the silver scales
are almost entirely overtaken by a deep red and black hue. The wings pulse with
bloody energy, she became hyper-aggressive and relentless, prioritizing rapid,
wide-range attacks over strategy.
Her Bloodening state took complete control over her, it was
like if her consciousness was shut down and only pure bloody instinct was
moving her. It was the final phase, the final round, as she entered that new
form; the fight did not last long. It was nearly sunrise just about 2 hours
away from the sun to come and illuminate everything that happened during the
night, everything was done, the fight was over the beast was defeated but the
price to pay was very high, a nearly devastated kingdom, the entire order dead,
and its last member consumed by a corrupted pact.
As soon as the beast fell, she flew back to her
kingdom, in a small moment of consciousness but she was struggling to stay conscious
since her Bloodening state was still active. She went to the castle to tell the
news to the king, and queen but when they saw her at first, they understood
what she did, they knew the monster was gone, but that a new one was born it
was when with pain in their hearts they ordered their last royal guards to
execute her. When Malina heard this, that little moment of consciousness she
was struggling to keep instantly vanished, and it was when it started, two
hours of bloody torment for the remaining kingdom.
In just two hours she did the almost impossible for a
simple knight, she devastated what was left of the kingdom. When the sun
started to come, the light of it illuminated a bloody scene, everything
destroyed, everyone dead, killed in such ways that would be hard to describe
and making faces of total pain, like if they had gone through an impossible
level of suffering before dying. One last royal guard was still alive, but the
mad once Platinum Paladin was holding it by its neck about to pierce its chest
with her claw, the guard looked down at her coughing blood trying to say a few
last words “In the name of the Kingdom I curse you and name you Cursed Bloody
Paladin” the last guard managed to say in its last breath as she then
pierced its chest with her claws. The swarm of bats flying around sucking the
blood of the corpses and then going towards her like if they had formed some
sort of symbiotic relationship with her.
It was when that Bloodening state was finally over,
like if she has had some sort of bloodthirsty frenzy. When she came back to
herself, she saw with horror what she did, the sunlight illuminating the horror
that happening just a few hours ago. She looked around her, the village
destroyed, the people dead, rivers of blood all around her, she looked at
herself with horror as she was covered in blood, tears filled her eyes as she
managed to hear the faint and weak sound of a guard that was being crushed by
the walls of a destroyed house, she rushed to aid it, but as soon as she held
it in her arms, that name was said once again “Cursed Bloody Paladin” Then
the guard died in her arms.
Her eyes went wide, as she understood everything and
why that name, she had been cursed by the kingdom that was now a total chaos,
the kingdom she loved and once she devoted herself, the kingdom that she
finished with her own cursed claws. As the sun rose onto the heavens, she held
the corpse of the guard close to her, and leaned her head up to let out a loud
cry of pain, suffering and agony that made echo all around the mountains. After
that, she was never seem nor heard ever again.
The current days
As the years went by, no one ever saw her again, just
a very few adventures managed to see her or even heard her cries/Roars when the
blood moon rises over the citadel, the name adventures gave to the ruins of her
old kingdom. She became a legend, a myth that these new days is told to scare new
adventures or knight apprentices. Since people find heard that an entire
kingdom was wiped out only by one mad knight, but of course within the months,
and soon years the story changed as it traveled from adventurer to adventurer,
some adventurers even dared to go to the old citadel just to see if she was
real, a few of them didn’t find anything nor hear anything, but those that went
and were lucky or unlucky enough managed to at least hear her in the nights of
bloody moon, as well as the cries of animals around the citadel. But others
that were dumb enough to look for her during those nights, never came back.
As the years went by, her appearance started to change due to her corrupted blood pact, her body changed with a regal yet menacing look but also emphasizes elegance, danger, and gothic beauty. She has a lithe, body and a streamlined frame. her posture is both predatory and graceful.
Although, the blood moon is not actually necessary for her to enter this
state, she can also enter if she is in mid fight and receives enough energy
from the Qurio (The Red bats). In this state she will go into a blood frenzy and
looses her mind in order to satisfy her blood thirst, in this state, her body becomes darker, with a deeper crimson overtone dominating its
once-silver scales. Her wings glow more intensely, with the red energy
radiating outward like blood mist. Her eyes glow brighter red, and its entire
demeanor shifts to appear more menacing and feral.
In this state, she becomes
significantly more aggressive and dangerous, heightening her power and
ferocity. In this state she has Increased aggression
and enhanced Speed.
She is a complete normal woman when she is not in her bloodlust state, but she will start acting in fear when it comes to battle as she will try to avoid any kind of battle of act of violence, since this will trigger the blood lust state, and slowly it will start taking control over her mind and she will not calm down until a bloody mess is done. Also thanks to the parasites, she does not need to eat nor drink, all she needs to do is to kill something and the parasites will go and feed on her prey and then go back to her to feed her that stolen life force.

Background: Malina was a young dragon child born in
within a royal family. At the age of eight years old, she started to develop a
huge fascination for the order of the paladins, loving their armors as well as
skills, so when she turned 10 years old, she started her training to become a
paladin as well as her usual studies. She was a very fast learner when it came for
her knight studies, and she used her free time to train, and learn as much as
she could as well as enhance her abilities so she could be ready to take the
admission test at the age of 18 to become a paladin, though she was the
daughter of the royalty, she would had to start from the beginning and start escalating
to the very first places of the order.
When the moment came, at the age of 18, she presented
the test, which she passed with honors, and with that her life as a paladin
started. At first, she was treated like any other rookie, some paladins even
dared to mock her. The trainings were hard, almost brutal, as none showed any
kind of special treatment just because she was a woman nor the daughter of a
king, and she was ok with that, she was not expecting any special treatment.
The more she trained, the stronger she got, her abilities, reflexes getting
better and better. She was taking normal easy quests when she started but at
the age of 23, she started to take harder quests, and she always accomplished
them, some of them showed to be a good challenge, others were just easy for her.
At the age of 26 she escalated to one of the highest ranks of the order, and earned
the respect of all the paladins of the order, and she was well known for her
abilities, as well as strength but also ferocity when facing enemies.
At the age of 29 and for the day of her birthday
number 30, she was promoted to the rank she dreamed, head captain of the order
right after her superior decided to retire to and give the honors to her of
taking his place, honor and opportunity that she took with pride but also gratefulness.
She continued doing her best now in her new rank and place, until that fatidic
night when she lost everything at the age of 33.
