Biography  (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.):

 

Julian was born into the Angansi family who lived in Petrus, the capital city of the Reformed Kingdom of Oren. It was here he had been raised with his three brothers and one sister in a small house on the outskirts of the city. His parents weren't very wealthy, both worked as laborers but his mother had quit after giving birth to Julian to raise the family and teach him. As a result life was tough for the large family because of the only incomes were coming from the father and the eldest son.

At the age of ten, Julian and his siblings were considered old enough to take care of themselves and his mother returned to working as a laborer. For Julian, his mother not being home gave him little reason to stay. So during the day the young boy was tasked with many small errands to run, or as it turned into most of the time, told to explore the city.

Up and down the streets he walked. It was on the streets of Petrus that the young Julian decided what he wanted to do. He had overheard so many stories of far away lands and events happening coming from the lips of strangers. These tales of life outside Petrus excited him and he wanted to see it for himself.

At the age of seventeen, in the early days of The First seed, his chance to leave presented itself. Money for the family was tight and there was increased pressure for him to find employment. But Julian had decided many years ago that he did not want to live the life that his parents had. So gathering what little worldly possessions he had, he left at first light the next morning. 

His parents had protested that he not go. That he was needed to help support them. Not to abandon them like Markus, the second eldest son, had.

But Julians mind was made up. He had figured that even though he was leaving, the family would survive. And that his happiness was more important to him than doing what his parents.

After leaving his family in Petrus, many years were spent wandering around Athera. The life was lonely, but it was better than the one he would have had if he had stayed. Instead of working every day for a pitiful amount of Minas, he would take a break from his travels to work planting crops during The First Seed and harvesting as the growing season ended. It would earn him a fair amount of coin for his lifestyle needing only to buy food and repair clothing twice a year. Once the growing season was over and a bit of coin was made, his travelling could continue.

In the year of 1511, late into The Amber Cold, money was running low. He had been able to find a job planting, but was then unable to find employment at any of the farms harvesting the years crops. So he took up a contract with a merchant who was fearful of being robbed because of the ongoing war.

The merchant, being the anxious man that he was, had hired a large amount people to serve as body guards for him. It was with these people that Julian traveled with, acting as a body guard for the merchant. Much of the journey was uneventful, perhaps their numbers had scared off any bandits or there were simply none around. So to pass the time, the members of the group exchanged information and stories. 

From these people the inexperienced Julian developed and added onto what skills he had managed learned on his own. A brute of a man named Harald taught him how to defend and attack properly with a sword. While another slightly older man who paled in comparison to Harald, taught him how to properly prepare a meal and what food you could find and eat in the wilderness.

After having completed the contract outlined to them, the group parted ways with a handful of coins and a new understanding of the world. His excitement revived, Julian was eager to get back to travelling once again.

Two years had passed since the time he had served as a body guard for the merchant. Athera didn't hold the same sense of adventure as it once had and Julian was growing bored. While walking along a road he stumbled across an odd sight. 

A group of men, woman, and children had what looked to be all their valuable possessions and were making their way towards the coast behind Julian. Curious as to what was going on, Julian quickly stopped one of the members of the group to inquire into where everyone was going and why they were going there.

The man quickly explained as the group slowly passed them by that the world was ending. A giant worm was tearing apart land and devouring anything in it's path. Fearing for their lives, they were fleeing to the only safety they knew of, boats on the coast. These boats would take them far away from here and the worm to a new land.

Talk of new lands? Had Julian heard that correctly? His heart started to beat faster. And when the man suggested that he join them, he could not believe it. There was no point in staying in a place that was being destroyed by a worm and this may be his only chance to get a boat to this new land if others had already left.So he eagerly accepted and joined the group.

A few weeks later the boat landed on the shores of Vailor. Finally they had made it to this new land that Julian had been dreaming about for months... A new adventure! 

Saying goodbye to those he came to call friends, Julian Angansi parted ways with them to see this new land.
