Diablo

Diablo, once known as Sunny due to his cheery disposition and golden  fur, became Diablo through a series of events. Sunny always had poor  health, despite this he did his best to keep up his act and smiles.  Inside though he slowly became bitter and reclusive, watching from the  windows of his house as the other dragons went on with their lives  slowly forgetting about the friend they once knew. Sunny spent his days  combing books and tomes to heal himself, slowly delving into the occult  as his sickness worsened and he grew more desperate. One day he heard a  pair of dragon pips talking about an urban legend. A "game" where you  met the devil and if you beat his games and riddles you were granted one  wish. One single wish that could change a dragon's entire life. Sunny  looked further into this immediately. He knew exactly what he'd wish  for. And he'd reclaim his life and make everyone remember him once more.  Now games come with rules and learn every one to beat the devil he  must. Step one: On a New moon when the night is darkest save for the  stars watching, walk into the closest forest you can find. Any forest  would do it is only the entry point. In this step you must walk until  you find a fork in the road. Only one of these roads will lead you to  the devil. They will look identical. Step Two: Upon reaching the fork  you must carve a symbol into a tree in between the dividing roads. If  you do it right you will notice the forest go quiet. Not even a cricket  to chirp. It will take you a moment to notice this and the world with  start to appear grey. Close your eyes and count to 10. Open them and  look at the symbol you've scribed into the tree. It will now point to  which road you should take. Step Three: Once you head down the road  things will appear darker. Do not look at the shadows and eyes you see  between the branches of the trees. They will whisper and call to you.  Ignore them. Step Four: After some time you will come to a river.  A  hooded figure, " The Ferryman " will be waiting for you. He will not say  a word but will motion you to enter his small boat. Bow your head and  thank him for the ride. Step Five: The Ferryman will take you to the  Devil. He is far into the darkest parts of the forest only reachable by  the small boat you now sit in. On your trip you may ask The Ferryman any  questions as long as it is yes or no. You may ask about what you may  encounter and what the Devil will challenge you to.He will nod for yes  and remain static for no. Try to use this time carefully. Step Six: You  will eventually reach a rotting dock deep in the heart of the woods. Its  hard to see here but remember to thank The Ferryman for the ride once  more. He will gesture in the direction you need to blindly follow. Step  Seven: The road looks longer than you've walked before but you will find  your trip both shorter and longer than you think. You have reached the  Devil. Step Eight: He will be sitting in the carved out stump of a dead  tree. He will greet you with a smile. A smile that is not kind but  knowing. Introduce yourself and tell him you have come to play his game.  There are three games you will play. You must win two to get your wish.  If you do not win two, pray the darkness and its master are swift. Step  Nine: These games will not be easy. They will test your minds  endurance, make you question your reality, and ask you things you may  not know about yourself.

Sunny played the games. Sunny was not  deterred. Sunny won. "What do you wish for, child?" The Devil asked with  a grimace for loosing but will honour his agreement. "I want to be  immortal." Sunny said without hesitation. No more sickness. No more  loss. Everyone will see him once more. The Devil smiled at this. "If you  so wish." He had a large smile on his face. One Sunny didn't like. One  that said Sunny chose wrong. He remembered too late the rules were to be  as specific as possible. The Devil will bend your wish. A black cloud  of smoke formed around him, fiery coals burning under his paws. Sunny  tried to scream but nothing answered his begging for sound. The fire  whipped around him melting is fur and skin into bone. The fire wrapping  an embrace around him. He coughed as the smoke settled and he saw the  Devil once more. "You're is wish granted." It chuckled. He presented a  mirror to the dragon. Sunny was now bones and fire lapped what fur  remained. "What did you do to me?" The Devil lowered the mirror and grew  close to Sunny whispering in his ear. " Demons never die." With that he  vanished, leaving Sunny alone in the dark woods, dropping to his knees  and fainting. He woke up the next morning, suns streaming into his eyes.  He was outside the woods he originally entered. He was different now.  He was new. He was in between dead and alive. But he got his wish. As  his life continued on, he changed his name, grew even more distant from  society, and delved further into the occult. He tried playing the game  again and again but he could never find the Devil again to wish it away.  

Diablo was now who he was.
