Ulluxy'l devoted himself, in the meantime, to gathering the many fragments of the Bloodgem so that, one day, he might reassemble it. He dedicated himself to destroying the being he held responsible for his people's deaths, and eventually adopted the name Ulysses Bloodstone. Though the evil power of the Helix had destroyed his tribe, the hunter himself became virtually immortal. One of these fragments lodged itself into his sternum the others were scattered across the planet. When the horror-stricken hunter realized what was happening to his tribe, he lunged upon the Bloodgem, which caused it to explode into hundreds of geometrically perfect fragments. But once they had gathered before the Bloodgem, the Hellfire Helix evilly psychically absorbed their minds whilst killing their bodies. Returning to his tribe, the hunter demonstrated his power and told his awe-struck people how they too might receive the gift. There, it granted the hunter super-human strength. Having a great desire to conquer Earth, yet needing a native life form as its agent, it convinced Ulluxy'l to lead the hunter to the cave where it had materialized. It housed the Hellfire Helix, an evil non-organic life form from another continuum that, while possessing great mystical power, needed to encase itself within the protective crystal to exist within Earth's continuum. The Bloodgem was an unearthly crystal that had only recently materialized on Earth. Eventually becoming one of his tribe's foremost hunters, he was hunting for food one day when he encountered a being called Ulluxy'l Kwan Tae Syn, guardian of the Bloodgem. He was raised as part of a small nomadic tribe inhabiting Northern Vanaheim, on the continent of Europe, in the area which would one day be called Scandinavia. The man who would one day call himself Ulysses Bloodstone was born approximately ten thousand years ago, at the dawn of the Hyborian Age. The Known History Of Ulysses Bloodstone The Way It Began
