BackStory:

Trapped in the Labyrinth since they were born, three Minotaur brothers, Asterion, Pholcos, and Nessus have made it their job to defend their humble home, and keep their father, the ruler of the Labyrinth out of harm’s way.

          Asterion is a natural born leader, his father knew it from a young age and entrusted him with leading he and his brothers in the art of war, and defending their home. His strength cannot be match and he’s not afraid to use it to knock anything and everything from his path.

          Pholcos is a follower, simple-minded, the brother that does his duty at the instruction of his siblings. He’s not much for words, and instead sticks to simple grunts and roars to terrify anyone that crosses him.

          Nessus is a hot head, has always wanted to be the leader of the pack, but his rage hinders his ability to lead he and his brothers to victory. He’s quite jealous of his brother Asterion, who has led he and his brothers to win many a battle.

          While alone, each brother can hold his own, when they attack together, their inner rage is unleashed.
