Family History and Culture

 

Abridged History:

The pools, a time lost greatly to the whims of ignorance and hatred. And yet, it was then when some the proto-Elves broke off, and became ascended. The gifts of the pool do not escape the Auceps to this day, as they too remain with the ‘Aheral-at-large. It is at this time when the Auceps consider their family to have been founded, formally. For the time before the pools is but a footnote for the consideration of scholars who care greatly for that specific era in history. By and large, however, it hardly goes mentioned in one’s home education.

 

Across the ages, from isle to isle, land to land, those significant and those in between, Auceps has been a name for the background. A family whose purpose in existence has been to focus on their interests, their desires, their concerns for the community in which they live in a far more supportive kind of way, rather than one direct and powerful. Hence their lack of listing, their nonexistence in Sohaership, in government generally, as rather they have been the quiet scholars, librarians and inventors. A guard and a soldier, here and there, fighting when the Silver Enclave chose to stand their ground rather than run.

 

It wasn’t until the land of Axios that the family emerged to do anything remotely publically involved, when Darcassan Auceps’ father was elevated to a ranking position within the Vigil, the staunch protectors of purity in Haelun’or. Despite that order’s eventual fall, and the crumbling of the general order and popularity of the ‘Aherals, the Auceps family survived through Darcassan and his brother, both of whom went into hiding for a time. The former to study, the latter to rest and raise his young son.

 

Come late Atlas, and into the flight to Arcas, Darcassan returned home to Fi’haelun, and in a public talk with the Maheral, reasserted himself into the fold. While their exact placement remains to be seen, the Auceps family is yet quite alive, with a blank canvas ahead of them.

 

Tl;dr History:

- The family considers their true founding to have been during the era of the Golden Pools.

- For most of their history the family has kept to themselves. Rarely participating openly.

- Auceps public service has been most often in the form of military service.

- As of 1706, the family has publically returned, but does not live in the Silver Enclave.

 

Culture:

Purity by our own standards. Uninfluenced, free from political and social pressure, purity in its most righteous and forward-thinking form. This is purity by blood, and by blood alone. To breed with a non-Mali’aheral is a most detestable act. It is as disgusting as murder, as despicable as theft, and as abominable as the Orcs. With this in mind, however, purity of mind and disposition are not swept under the rug, but rather given less gravity.

 

The most significant matter of purity of mind links in with purity of the body, not of race, but of one’s strength and health. The greatest means by which to preserve well-being is in the form of muscle and clarity in thought, unhindered by the poisons of the void. Arcane magics, across the board, aid so little in the advancement of knowledge that their acquisition will rather set one back in work.

 

Considering this, material sciences, scholarly work, and martial service are the areas of interest most practiced by the members of the Auceps house. Many a great warrior and soldier have proudly displayed the Auceps name, so too have a number of librarians and scientists, architects and engineers, politicians and advisors. Never have we wasted a day advancing otherworldly goals, never a day have we wasted sauntering about some dark laboratory on an arcane experiment, for the work we do is selfless, it is for the benefit of our kinsmen as much as it is for the benefit of ourselves, unlike those selfish, ignorant voidal magi.

 

Time is saved too with our understanding of religion and the deities. Like our long lasting kinsmen, we are atheists. Not in the sense that we are deniers of the existence of so-called “deities,” nor do we deny the existence of the aenguls and daemons. Rather, we do not take the time of day to revere them, for prayer and worship are pointless and selfish, they do not advance one’s knowledge nor well-being.

 

Tl;dr Culture

- Purity of blood is most important. Do not breed with non-Aherals.

- Atheism is our “religion.” Deities aren’t false, but rather aren’t worth one’s time.

- Professions should focus on scientific, scholarly, or martial pursuits.

- Physical strength is encouraged, voidal magic is seen as a weakness.

Physical Traits

 

Males:

Tall and broad-shouldered, the latter a trait uncommon to most Mali’aheral. Their average height is six foot one, and they tend to grow into naturally bulkier builds. Facially, male Auceps carry well-defined and sharp features, a rigid jawline, thin lips, a straight and peaked nose, and sharp eyes that suggest a resting squint. Male hair is traditionally silver with purple eyes.

 

Females:

Slightly shorter than their male counterparts, with more feminine (petite) builds common to courtly women of the Empire. Their average height is five foot nine, with a face symmetrically designed, a resting smile and thin, although not sharp, eyes. Female hair is traditionally silver with purple eyes.

Username: Chaosgamer_

 

Ban History:  I don’t have any ban history

Activity(1-10):  A solid 6

Desired Character:  I’d prefer Ohmbryn

Physical Traits: Ohmbryn is 6’5 inches tall, he has short and ruffled silver hair and purple eyes. He is broad-shouldered and more muscular thanks to his ambition of being healthy physically and mentally. He keeps his hair short so he doesn’t heat up that quickly when doing physical exercises on sunny days (and because the long hair blocks his vision from time to time). He has a sharp jawline and a small scar next to his left eyebrow ‘because of a small accident with a knife’.

Characteristics: 

 

He is more drawn to Atheism and thinks that ‘religions’ might be one of the biggest problems that exist, due to it causing people to carry out irrational actions and sayings in the name of something ‘greater’. Unlike others that carry out decisions in the name of their ‘Gods’, he tends to think from a logical point of view. He keeps himself fit with exercises and training, as well as meditation sometimes and mostly eating light meals. He tends to spend time gaining knowledge as well, gathering books and doing research about various topics, as he wishes to one day set up a school or some kind of laboratory. He has a superstitious belief, due to a theory he made when he was younger, that the ones that have connections to the Void are risking being able to ‘have their ability to think and have feelings being replaced with emptiness’. He is kind, courageous, ambitious, yet wary of people with Voidal connections.

[Lukariatias 524]

Chaos, Fawny, Assassin, and Angel_Mystic accepted to play their respective characters. Hakuza accepted to play a write in.

[Fawnytheturtle 865]

Angel_mystic has stepped away from her char due to irl things so we are seeking someone to roleplay Filauria. 

 

She was role-playing her as a medical person (doctor/cleric, whatever you call them) 

[peaxhi 8]

Username: Vaphine

Ban History: (basic description, if any) none

Activity(1-10): (1 being inactive, 5 being a few (2-4) hours a day, 10 being 12+ hours a day) 4-5

Desired Character: (Custom/write-in characters are accepted) Filauria, if possible

Physical Traits: Filauria is about 5’10”, and has long silver hair with purple eyes. She is thin, and is not very muscular compared to the other females, but she isn’t completely without strength. Her jawline is not sharp, but defined, and she has a small beauty mark below her left eye.

Characteristics: Filauria follows the atheist religion set before her since the beginning of her childhood, because she believes that if the gods and deities were so mighty, why didn’t they help the world when it truly needed it? She loves to spend her time reading rather than fighting, and most of the books she reads are of the medical field. She hopes to be helpful without having to hurt anything in the process, like being a medic, but she will if they are a threat to her family. She is silent most of the time, and usually answers through small hums of acknowledgement, but if the situation arises, she will speak her mind.
