The Hatesworn

The Hatesworn. A feared and respected order within the Dark Elf society, focused on one sole thing: slaying demons. The Hatesworn are menacing, brutal Dark Elf warriors who have specialized in ways of slaying demons, with ebony weapons in their hands and burning hatred in their hearts. The Hatesworn take in recruits at very young age and teach them to loathe everything from the Netherworld. Because of this, many veteran Hatesworn hardly feel anything but hatred and their only thrill is slaying demons. The old and crippled become empty shells that are incapable of humane feelings that would otherwise define 'being alive'. But their hearts beat in tact with their hatred, which becomes the only thing left inside them.

The Hatesworn are (as stated above) recruited at very young age and trained afterwards and after many years of hard, disciplined training, they are put up with a challenge that will prove their worth. In their capitol, Greyhold, there is a building known as the 'Hellgate', It has almost become a church of sorts for the Dark Elves, but instead of worshipping what's inside, they are presented with the very thing they hate: demons. The Hellgate is a building in which the Dark Elves have created a gateway into the Netherworld where the practiced recruits are sent. If they can survive a day in the very place they've been trained to hate, they are allowed to come out again and officially given the title as 'Hatesworn'. However, if they do not come out again, they will not be mourned, and no ceremony will be held for their death. They will simply be seen as unworthy and too weak to survive. Even their own parents will look down upon them and shame themselves over them. That is the risk a Hatesworn recruit must take.

History
The Hatesworn were created by the very first Dark Elves, who were born in the flames of dark magic and hatred. They were at first simple High Elves who strayed from their home and travelled into Nightweald to spread their splendor and light, but this quest was quickly brought to an end. They were captured by dark cultists who abused their magical structure, experimenting mercilessly on them. Their screams were heard through Nightweald for days, until the cultists decided to attempt to turn the light magic inside them into something darker. And they succeeded. With the intention of create beings of hatred, constructed to destroy their brethren, they created the Dark Elves. But the hatred within them turned on their creators, who were torn to shreds in a bloody fit of hatred. And thus, the first Hatesworn were created. They began preaching their hatred and breeding their kind until the Dark Elves became an accepted race and the Hatesworn thrived, until the blazing hatred towards demons was something each and every Dark Elf possessed.
