Story's told to bad children
Background:
Not much is known about Domino, not even his/her true gender.
Domino is simply good at getting people things that they need.
Domino's past is as dark and shrouded as Domino is, what is know is that domino was born in the 60s at least that is what domino said when asked. The truth of it is that even domino only has fragmented memories of human life. What is known is that Domino was the child of a blue collar factory worker in Detroit and that there was a accident that left Domino's father dead and left Domino scared almost from head to toe and in the "care" of the Detroit city foster care system. Domino who had lost the will to speak after the accident was tormented for the scars that seemed to remove Domino's ability to interact with the others in the school. The home that Domino had been placed in was inhuman at best, Domino was treated no better than a dog. Domino's food was placed on a table in another room so that the family could eat without there stomachs turning. Domino ran away from the foster home after only a few months and became homeless for a time.
Domino wandered the streets hiding from people that would scream or stair with disgust steeling food when the
chance provided itself. Cold dirty and alone Domino seemed to find a sense of joy hiding from people
only inches away at times. Domino began to hear people talk of an alarming number of children
that had gone missing in the area, and that the police would be cracking down on the homeless people
for clues in area that Domino has come to call home. Again domino was on the move this time running
from the law. The two officers who had been following reports of a burglar in the building next door had only by chance
found Domino eating in the alleyway. Darting through holes in fences and gaps between buildings
Domino easily escaped the police only to realise that the place domino was in was new.
A strange smell loomed in the air, sweet and alluring it seemed to be coming from the back of a small delivery truck.
Curiosity got the best of Domino as into the back of the truck Domino went.
As Domino climbed into the truck there was a small card table with a set of dominoes.
Picking up one of the ivory playing pieces Domino opened the first of 3 large trunks.
In the trunk was a strange looking fruit that Domino had never seen before.
Suddenly Domino heard a loud bang like thunder only feet from the back of the truck, Domino jumped into
the trunk and closed the lid, locking it by mistake. A Domino's body fell onto the soft fruit, the juice went every were seeping in into Domino's flesh only a few moment passed before Domino fell into a sleep that would mimic that of death. That sleep would be Domino's last sleep as a human. Domino was then taken to the hedge quite by accident,
Domino had no idea that the fruit was destined for a different kind of market and that
it would make anyone that eats it fall into a deep sleep.
Taken to the goblin market the trunk now containing a unconscious child looking no more than 14
was put in the back of the shoppe for storage and special requests, the shoppe owners
had no idea what they had on there hands. A few hours later pack of brier wolves followed closely
by a True Fae attacked the market looking for runaway toys to take home and play with. One of the
wolves smelled something amidst a trunk of sleeping fruit.
When the trunk was opened Domino was unconscious from the poisoned fruit. Domino's
Fae master searching the market for anything he might want before destroying it
found Domino to be very interesting in that Domino still looked human. It seemed that
the thorns never touched the child's skin. The Fae was elated to take the child in exchange
for sparring the wayward market.
The procedure was methodical in its purpose, Domino's skin was removed in strips 1x4 in size until the child's skin, soul, mind and even gender was removed. The child then was lowered into a vat of liquid resembling used motor oil mixed with glitter and chunks of goblin fruit, Domino screamed only once as Domino was lowerd into the vat of fluid that repaired the child's body with a disturbing hiss.
The procedure was repeated several time until the body that came out could only vaguely
be considered humanoid. The skin seemed to shift and flow like the vat of liquid below.
It was then that Domino was truly born. The stress of the procedure and the poisoned
fruit that Domino had eaten had left an empty void were once there were memories.
Domino's Fae master took great joy in teach the blank canvas of a child
to eat, walk and act like a emotionless doll. Domino's Fae master did not mind that
Domino did not speak, in fact he enjoyed it. It was a nice change from the constant begging
and screaming of his other toys. Domino was trained to be just another face in the crowed,
trained to not stick out. Trained to be no one and everyone. Domino's master was pleased
with his new toy and reworded Domino by giving his new toy a name "I will call you, Domino"
At that the master threw the ivory playing piece to Domino's feet. Domino picked
up the ivory playing piece and acknowledged the name. With no emotion the first
word to come out of Domino's mouth seance the car accident that killed Domino's father was "Domino".
Domino's training had offered many chances to escape, and One day that is what hapend
assuming to face of one of the masters hounds Domino walked out the front door and never looked back.
Now in the real world Domino is a thief, smuggler, assassin whatever Domino needs to do to survive the world that Domino only holds disdain for, the only reprieve Domino get is the trips to the goblin market were Domino dose more undesirable business to maintain being someone who can just get things, no questions asked.
