 Bio: The Forsaken well this man is more then meets the eye, he has been almost all but forgotten like his handle states. Lucky for us all the Forsaken has been completely written out of history, and I have had to pay my researchers plenty of overtime pay just to gather the information needed for this article. The Forsaken has been in operation since 2020 and according to my data he has never stopped working just changed scenery, this runner has been in every major city all across North America at some point and even has has worked over in Europe for a handful of years. This man managed to keep his legacy somewhat unknown and was able to slide under the radar like the euro runners. This is an impressive feet for a runner that has spent a vast majority of his career running the American shadows. So where to start when it comes to the Forsaken, for this man is a mixture of myth and fact, legend and reality and sometimes the the truth is stranger than fiction when it comes to the man known as the Forsaken.
        It is said this man got his start as a runner shortly after the Ghost Dance and during the Nights of Blood. He entered a life of violence and crime when his entire life was stripped from him and he was rendered a dead man walking, with nothing left he rose from the ashes as the forgotten, the unwanted and the unneeded, and so it was the birth of the Forsaken. This man just walked from town to town dispensing justice to the lawless and bring down many of the native warlords and tribal bands that where terrorising the locals. It is said that he as well would strike down would be raiders and highway men that looked to reap the rewards of the troubled landscape. Legend state that one a full moon night, when the bells chime 12 the nameless and faceless Forsaken will come walking into the town his long coat blowing in the wind, his features cast in shadow by the moon light and by morning all who intended harm the innocent of the town would be laying dead where they stood.
     Now from what I can defer from my research data is that the Forsaken yes actually murdered the men, but more I look into the legends it seems that he wasn’t alone and that this man had a posy of unknown soldiers that travelled with him. According to the autopsy reports the fallen would have a variety of wound patterns and their time of death was to close together for one man to have achieved. It appears the Forsaken might have killed a handful of the people in each town but science and forensics debunks the myth that the Forsaken could have physically brought down countless trained warriors in a single night alone.
    Legend states that upon dawn the unknown man would be seen leaving the town and vanishing into the rising sun and never a trace of his presence was ever found, the forever wandering man left but not a trace, nor foot print in the dust. Well we now know that he is a physical adept and he probably learned one of the many mystical abilities that can allow him to move undetected. I don’t wan’t to debunk the legend of the Forsaken as I have a ton of respect for the stories as I heard them all as I was growing up, and I saw all of the movies as a child, but as one gets older you have to put silly childhood legends and myths about a nameless and faceless killer to bed and look solely at the facts.
    According to the Legend this man, travelled all over North America on foot and their were accounts of his presence in every major city sometimes at the same time, this people is impossible nobody can be in two places miles apart at the same time. It’s just not possible even with the technology we have today, not to mention the technology they had back then. This man had to have copy cats, that where tasked with mimicking the Forsaken in order to further spread the legend. What we do known is that he would only go after the guilty and he would only go after those that where exploiting the week. The Forsaken would as well go after any and all native forces that threatened a town or where causing undo harm to it’s civilians and citizens.
     This people is the legend of the Forsaken, and this legend has stood the test of time. The Forsaken a vigilante, a hunter and warrior of the shadows that dispensed justice as only he saw fit. Well not to be the bearer of bad news, but this hero of the innocent is also a runner of the shadows and has had his hand in some very legendary operations throughout the ages. He didn’t just fight for the good of man, he fought for his wallet and the Forsaken was eventually captured on the only device that doesn’t forget or forgive and that is the security camera. The man with no face, the man with no name has been reviled. The Legend of the Forsaken has been unmasked and it is nothing but a sad old man, that is not very threatening, so my hypothesis earlier about him not being the only one doing the killings is sure to be correct. As the Forsaken looks more like my Grandfather then a soulless vigilante, he should be hanging around the shuffle board court and let the legend of the Forsaken just fade away.
     Though like all good legends, even though he has been unmasked and proven to be nothing more then an old man, people still report sightings of the Forsaken and there are still reports of entire camps of soldiers vanishing over night and seeing the Forsaken walk away into the rising sun. Again my readers the Forsaken is just an old man named Bernard Cummings and he works and lives here in Seattle. This man has a family and lives a suburban life, as a husband, father and grandfather; the Forsaken is no more and hasn’t been for many years.
