History
In Thuulstrea of olde a drow obsessed with surface warrior techniques by the name of Quortek'Drital strayed from his squad during a surface raid lost he wandered the Iron cap mountains of olde, As he wandered the cold mountains, he encountered a large grizzly bear thinking the dumb creature an easy defeat he battled with the bear much longer than he would have guessed finding it mightier than he ever assumed.
After his battle with the surface bear he stumbled upon a large barbaric man his name he knew not, when Quortek looked upon this barbarian for the first time in his life he felt a deep sense of fear down in his gut. The intense barbarian wearing the hide of a bear obviously more immense than he had battled,The man spotted the drow Quortek observing the man momentarily watched as the man mustered an incurable rage from somewhere deep within. Quortek steeled himself hoping only to survive the battle he knew would ensue easily seeing this man was as formidable if not more than the bear he has previously defeated. The drow and the barbarian fought for hours dealing many nearly mortal wounds upon each other by end each combatant having a deep respect for the other. In the end Quortek slew the unnamed barbarian taking a studded white headband from him, He spent much time upon the ironcap mountains seeking to mimic the barbarians technique before he could find a path to return to Thuulstrea.
When Quortek returned to his home in Thuulstrea he was a force to be reckoned with many houses commissioning his services in their dastardly deeds. In time Quortek would form the House Zszdin, and be re-knowned for his unorthodox berserker style. (It was highly disapproved amongst the drow houses although formidable.) Overtime Quortek was known for a blood red headband he wore and the grotesque practice he preformed when he soaked it in the blood of his dead or dying enemies. In time the souls of Quortek's angry enemies inhabited the band and caused Quortek's reknowned reckless bouts of rage.
Upon the day of Quortek's untimely death he battled a known mage by the name of Zyslis had slayed all of his familiars and bodyguards. standing before zyslis he commanded him to beg for mercy as Zyslis laid about the ground his lifeblood leaving him he swore upon Quortek a blood curse for his clan's anger to be the death of them all and then ended his casting a deadly spell that left Quortek with a deadly mortal wound he knew would be the death of him, quortek raged about Zyslis' quarters his powerful rage had blinded him, during his last moments he prayed to searith asking for Searith to protect his clan from Zyslis' blood oath. In an act of her own pleasure Searith sealed both zyslis' and Quortek's souls into the band, it powering the bands power. The band rediscovered mysteriously by Quortek's first daughter and the second leader of the clan it was passed down ever since. Recently it was taken from Hurzteb's dead sister after his new lord Deidrion had slayed her, Hurzteb took the band it his right as the new leader of his clan and has yet to activate it's abilities.
