Introducing Tanerk Rau- Blood Myth
Series by Stacy Moran
One of my favorite characters in
my upcoming series Blood Myth is Tanerk Rau. He is not your stereotypical “bad
guy” the usual guy you hate in a series. He is nothing like those soft-edged
villains. No, Tanerk is absolutely someone you would not want to meet on the
street at night, hell or any time of day.
Tanerk is
an evil warlock who killed his own father to obtain leadership in the Rau
Coven. Malevolent, Tanerk is sadistic with his rituals, breeding, and
sacrifices. The self-proclaimed king of the Rau has an agenda and a one track
mind, create more Rau and wipe out the Misr Witches.
Creating and writing for Tanerk is
both fun and frustrating. He doesn’t care about anyone and is purely evil. So
making him likeable enough that readers will want to keep him around was a
challenge. The difficulty comes from the fact that, the further you take him
into bad/scary/evil, the less likely the reader is to identify with him. If no
one can relate to him, it’s harder to make the Tanerk or any evil character
sympathetic or likeable.
The less than pleasant character
isn’t always an easy one to sell but they have an enormous amount of
creativity. More research went into writing for Tanerk than any of my other
characters. He is not bound by social acceptance his methods are different. But
that difference is why I love Tanerk. His path is not mapped out or bound by
rules making him extremely dangerous and exciting.
The Creation of the Rau Warlocks
The Rau were created by Angra in
the year 1000 A.D. The god of darkness and evil created the Rau because of his
wife Baset. The two thrived on playing games and competing with one another.
Baset believed all Angra’s descendants birthed from her would be stronger than
anything Angra could create.
According to an ancient
prophecy, the Rau are a line of evil warlocks destined to destroy the Misr and
eventually gain the power to take over the world, handing it to their creator
Angra.
The Rau Warlocks are known for
their sacrificing of women after force breeding them in attempts to create more
male Rau to help fulfill the prophecy. They are also known for their ability to
morph into demonic forms, enhancing their powers dramatically.
Tanerk Rau the self-proclaimed
King of the all that is evil in the world has his own goals. He is determined
to create heirs from the Misr women. The power from the joining of a Rau and a
Misr is believed to be enough to destroy world.
Blood Myth Excerpt
“She is a bit tied up right now but you will see
her soon, my pet.” Tanerk smirked and started to move closer. He lifted his
head taking in a deep breath.
“My son hasn’t fucked you yet.” He lifted his
hand to touch her skin.
“Don’t.” It was a sharp command
even though she did not move.
The room filled with dark
malevolent power. Tanerk’s hand gripped her neck, lifting her from the ground
as he squeezed tight around her throat. “Don’t?” He smiled revealing perfect
white teeth before he leaned into her ear. “I love taking it the hard way.” His tongue licked the sensitive place behind
her ear.
“Are you a screamer like your sister?” He hissed in her ear.
Sorina knew he wanted to play with her, torment
her. “Fuck you.” She spat out.
Tanerk chuckled. “Oh I will fuck you, beauty.” One
hand he used to tightened his grip around her throat. His talon like nails bit
into her flesh. His other hand skirted beneath her dress. Tanerk’s large hand
cupped her full right breast before fingertips found her nipple. He plucked the
hard nub. “Are you wet, witch?” His sharp nails ripped into the material at the
same moment the door burst open.
The
Rau Chant
We were unleashed to rein evil, everywhere we go hell
is left in our wake. We were awakened to bring evil, chaos, and take over
the world. Death follows with no mercy, bloody and brutally. A creation with
evil flowing through our veins, we care about nothing. Except for the blood we
shed… We are stronger the death for death it is our minion.
