History:
Steven is found by the owner of a Southern plantation when he
spots the slaves trying to hide something. After some
'persuasion' the slaves finally admit they found the baby
abandoned in the fields and since the plantation owner has no
children of his own decides to adopt him. Steven growns up
living the good life of the privileged as the only child of the
wealthy plantation owner. Then when he's 19 the Civil War breaks
out. Anxious to defend Dixie land, Steven joins the confederate
army, where he's taken by his uncle, General Robert E. Lee, to
be his aid. To his dismay he's never allowed to see some action
because his uncle tries to protect his brother's only child.
At the end of the war he goes home. Within a year of
returning home, he marries his childhood sweet heart. They live
happily married for 5 years before she gets sick with
tuberculosis and dies. The end comes faster than expected and
Steven could never forgive himself for not being there at the
end but away on Ku Klux Klan business. After a three year
grieving period his parents convince him to marry a rich
plantation heiress they picked out for him. They remain
childless for five years until his wife gets pregnant and Steven
is excited to finally be a father.
He gets the disappointment of his life at his wife's
delivery, the baby is black, he can't be his, so he's glad they
both die within a few hours of each other, since he had decided
to kill both.
At the grave side service for his wife and the baby, Steven
notices a lone black man at the back. This black man is crying
more than even his wife's mother. And that's all the clue he
needs to suspect him and after the funeral he goes to question
him. After some 'delicate' questioning, the man admits that he
had slept with Steven's wife regularly when she came down to his
side of town for her charity work, claiming that the two of them
were in love.
At the next gathering of the KKK Steven arranges to have the
black guy who slept with his sife lynched. Though he tries to
conceal the facts, he's unable to hide them for long and his
friends at the KKK end up finding out everything. And shortly
there after the teasing and taunts begin, about how Steven
couldn't show up a black in bed.
When the truth about the baby's father comes out to the
genaral public, Steven's father dies of a massive heartattack
from the shock. His mother does not longer survive her husband
pinning away after him. The only thing Steven has left to live
for is the lynching of other blacks, to show them all who is the
superior race. After a year of teasing and taunts about his wife
and wife's lover, Steven can't take it anymore. The lynching of
blacks that he has lived for since his wife's death, is no
longer enough to sustain him. So Steven does the only reasonable
thing a man can do. He puts his revolver into his mouth and
pulls the trigger.
Steven awakes at his burial viewing to the sound of people he
neither likes or cares about laughing at how he killed himself
because his wife wanted a black man instead of him. Furious and
not even truly aware of what he's doing, Steven leaps from the
coffin and in a blinding rage kills everyone there. To hide what
happened, Steven sets fire to his family house and razes it to
the ground. To make it look like blacks were behind it, he also
sets fire to several other buldings on his property. Not that it
bothers him in the least. Since his parents died, Steven had let
the plantation go and everything is in disrepair, which makes it
exceedingly easy to set fire to. While the fires are blazing,
Steven goes to the barn, where the hidden safe is, and takes all
the money he can carry to his saddle bags, then saddles his best
horse and rides off into the night, saying to hell with them
all.
Steven rides along until he reaches a town where he's sure he
won't be recognized, just as he rides through the main road he
feels the most awesome headache ever and a man comes out of a
bar to look at him. He gasps in surprise as he recognizes
William Culbraith, who fought with him under General Lee's
orders... only he hadn't changed at all. He invites Culbraith
for a drink even though they were never particular friends, and
Culbraith ends up telling him what he had become, an Immortal.
He also tells him about the Game and offers to teach him some
things in rememberence of his uncle.
Steven is enraged when he meets a black Immortal, he thought
they weren't entitled to being immortal, and challenges him
right away. Culbraith is displeased he made such a move without
asking him and leaves telling him he's on his own now and
without even caring for the outcome, Culbraith walks off.
When he takes his first Quickening, Steven likes it so much
it becomes his reason to live like lynching black people once
was, he makes it his reason of living, to hunt and kill all
black Immortals.
Several years later, once he takes his first non-black head,
Steven realizes it isn't just the joy of ridding the world of
another black that he enjoys so much, and he enjoys it more and
more each time he does it. It's the Quickening itself he enjoys.
And realizing this, he stops hunting blacks and just goes after
any Immortal he can find. Steven seems to have the devil's own
luck when it comes to locating newbies and prefers them, as they
are the easiest to get his next Quickening fix.
So now he travels from city to city taking all the challenges
and hunting all new Immortals he can find regardless of color or
gender.
