He is called “Cross” for many reasons – the cross-shaped double-bladed spear that he always carries at his side, the dark gray emblem tattooed into the skin of his chest, his ordained priesthood from times past, and most notably, his love for an Old World symbol. Perhaps, this small fact alone gives the hopeless hope, the sorrowful joy in a world wrecked and shaken. But to know his true name is to know the man behind the proverbial mask, a man who has struggled to keep his identity secret for many years.
After the fall of the church, Aaren Harp dropped his clerical clothing and donned a new guise. His philosophy was simple: he would punish the wicked and bring back the old ways. From this moment on, he would forever be known as “Cross”, the mystery man who dared live in the remnants of Reaper City, who dared stand up to a government that controlled and manipulated what little society still had to offer, who dared bring a cure into a diseased world. His past no longer mattered. His present would be explored. His future would dawn a revolution.
