Read Volt's Legend or just check out the skin- (Personally, I'd read his story, but if you don't have the patience, I don't blame you!)

"The world of Minecraft has suffered much from the evil spawns of darkness in the hundred years of Volt's absence. From the depths of the Ender World, Volt has reappeared from Legend. He is back and it's time for him to return the World of Minecraft to the peace and prosperity it enjoyed under the reign of the Valiants!"

Enjoy :)

"The Legend of the Valiants"

Awesome graphic of Volt by Drotth. Be sure to check out his work!


voting_arrowsvpngMany eons ago.. In the ancient land of Minecraft.. All things were peaceful and prosperous. Village children ran the fields in groups playing games.. Caravans traveled across the land trading their plentiful jewels and wares. There were stories by the campfire at night.. Stories of dreams, loves, and memories. Stories of evil that lay beyond their known world, in distant lands where terrible creatures roamed the night, borne of darkness. There were stories of many legends unknown. One of these legends told of an ancient being known as Volt, created from the very power that held their world together. Legend held it that this being possessed such great power that darkness itself fled at his very presence. It was said that on a dark night, if one watched for long enough, he could be seen as a flash of light streaking across the sky. Bards told these stories laughing, bellies full of cooked beef and ale. They enjoyed their lives in a world free from the terrors told of in legends of the world beyond. A world that would remain peaceful and prosperous as it had always been. Or so they thought..


Many years passed.. Minecraft remained peaceful, and untroubled. Until one day, when a young explorer, named Tat, chanced upon a brightly lit chamber, deep within a cave. He had at first believed it to be another of the many mine-shafts that riddled his land, until he realized that while the cave was lit brightly, and warm there were no torches to be seen. A certain energy seemed to tint the air, and he felt a metallic taste in his mouth. Further down the path he saw bright veins of gold which formed slowly.. into what seemed to be a large, golden throne. The throne, which faced away from him seemed to be emitting a faint glow, almost. Curiosity overpowering fear, Tat crept up to the throne and past it to its front, to find a golden clad figure, eyes glowing blue, sitting there on the throne motionless. Amazed at the site of this mystical looking figure, Tat stood there frozen in place, unable to do more than gawk open mouthed at the unbelievable sight. After a few heavy moments, Tat realized that the figure seemed to be in some trance like sleep state. With a sideways glance, he discovered a golden helm resting upon a pedestal only a few feet away.


In his recharging trance state, Volt meditated deeply, clearing his mind from all thought. For thousands of years he had kept this land at peace, free from the evil that lay outside of its borders. He had many memories in his many many years.. Many adventures, failures, and feats. He had not always been alone. No, the land was not so cruel as to bear only one Valiant. Three companions, the universe had born into Minecraft. Echo, Dragen (Dra-jen), and Volt. Together the three Valiants, protectors of all that was good, had roamed all of Minecraft, banishing the many evils borne of the darkness into the nothingness that they came from. For thousands of years, Echo, Dragen, and Volt watched over all of the world, keeping peace throughout the land for the cheerful villagers that roamed its entirety. That was before the Great Darkness...

It all began with a single discovery. A portal starry as the night sky, of unknown origins, deep within the bowls of the land. When they first chanced upon it, Dragen wanted badly to destroy it immediately. Echo, the most curious of the three, disagreed. He argued that whatever was through the portal must be discovered, lest it venture into their world unbidden. And there was something within the portal.Of that much, they were sure. A great evil emanated through it, of unmistakable power. At last, grudgingly he and Dragen conceded to Echo's argument and decided to venture into to the portal. But much to Volt's displeasure, Dragen decided not to allow Volt to come with them.
After much argument, Volt finally agreed to stay until their return. As much as he disliked the idea of being left behind, it made sense that one of them had to stay in their world to make sure the darkness creatures remained at bay, and the world at peace. The two Valiants entered the portal and Volt returned to the surface to make sure no evil spawned from the depths of the darkness in the world. For a long time, Volt kept the world at peace, though with more difficulty, for the creatures of the darkness seemed to sense the absence of the two keepers of their world, and began to stir more aggresively than before. Hours became days, and days became weeks. Still, Dragen and Echo did not return. Finally Volt could bear the wait no longer. He returned to the portal and plunged through its depths.

Volt awoke later in pain, sprawled across the floor in front of the portal he had just plunged into. Memories came flooding back to him. A dark place. His power gone. Unknown black creatures everywhere. A fearsome black dragon. His two companions' ruined helms strewn across the ground. Gone forever. A rage had taken over him. He had attacked his companions' murderer with all of his strength but to no avail. He was no match for the mighty creature in the midst of this disempowering gloom. He had barely escaped back to the portal with his life. The memories struck like blows. Volt, the last Valiant, was, from then on, alone.

After many years, and countless failed attempts to destroy the malicious portal, Volt was forced to remain there in the chamber, where he formed a golden throne and was forced to remain close at hand using much of his power to force the portal to remain at least inactive so that the creature within would not escape, and take the last of his lands that he had been able to hold on to. He now had to enter a trance like state of sleep in order to maintain the huge amount of his strength it took to keep the lasts of his lands free from the creatures of the darkness. Beyond the reaches of his power, the world was overcome by evil. This place at least, he was able to keep free of evil, as was his purpose in the world. The Minecraftians here were counting on him, even though they did not know it. Volt was content to keep his limited hold over the lands, from his chamber. And for two entire millenia, he did just that.

Until the cursed day, that he awoke from his trance state, re-energized, to see a mortal standing within his chamber. After years of peace he had ceased to place wards of protection on his cave. A mistake he would not make again. And indeed he would not be able to, for so stunned was he in that instant to see the mortal youth pick up and don his helm, that he lost his hold over the portal. That very moment, the youth, surprised by the weight of the ancient helm lost his balance and began to fall over. It was that very instant that the portal, out of Volt's control, activated and the youth fell over and into its depths. In the stunned instant Volt dove forward to grab the youth and was dragged too, into the gaping portal of darkness.

A great evil came over the Land of Minecraft like never before and the unbridled power of darkness spawned thousands upon thousands of creatures throughout the land. Zombies beat down the doors of startled villagers in the night along with cunning skeletons, exploding creepers, and spiders who could kill with blinding speed. Forever after, Minecraft was plagued with the spawn of Darkness. Or so the legend goes..
