Brunhyldir travels to Terriko Village, meeting Shopkeeper Frenchie - c. Malin’s Welcome, 1309
c. July 7th, 2011
Notes: Soon after spawning in to the world of Aegis, Brunhyldir travelled to Terriko Village, which was the nearest settlement. There, he met a Dwarven shopkeeper by the name of Ulf Taga, but everyone knew him as Frenchie.
Brunhyldir would leave the village at night, hunting monsters and animals so he could bring back supplies to trade with Frenchie
Eventually Brunhyldir moved on from the village once he had enough supplies.

Brunhyldir joins a bandit group led by Gorn Tearstorm - c. The First Seed, 1309
c. July 8th, 2011
Notes: Brunhyldir ventured to the barren Orcish deserts, coming across a small encampment of bandits. They called their area “Fort Riverside”, and after hunting for the group, Brunhyldir was allowed to join their ranks.

Fort Riverside is destroyed by Riznam and his allies - The Grand Harvest, 1310
July 9th, 2011
Notes: Riznam, a long time member of the Riverside group, executed a traitorous attack against Gorn and his followers. Two groups were formed – the Riverside Rebels, led by Riznam, and the Riverside Loyalists, led by Gorn.
Brunhyldir, only recently admitted into the group, followed Gorn in defeat. Fort Riverside was destroyed, and the Orcs would soon claim their land and build the city of Sanhar.

Gorn leads the Riverside Loyalists across the river, creating a new fortress. The Loyalists are now known as the Bloodsworn - c. The Amber Cold, 1310
c. July 11th, 2011
Notes: After the staggering defeat by Riznam and his allies, Gorn and the remaining Loyalists (Brunhyldir among them) regrouped and created a new fort far from the orcish deserts. In a hope to increase the loyalty within his group, Gorn has them undergo a vow of blood, and the group is renamed “Bloodsworn”.
Among the Loyalists is Rhodium Prime, who eventually becomes second-in-command.
Elrond, once a Riverside Rebel, returns to the Bloodsworn and is adopted into the group once more.

The Bloodsworn are betrayed by Elrond, and New Riverside is destroyed - c. Malin’s Welcome, 1310
c. July 14th, 2011
Notes: Elrond, acting as a double-agent for Riznam, plans to betray the Bloodsworn. Brunhyldir, who is on good terms with Elrond, is warned of the attack. Brunhyldir evades the destruction of New Riverside and the Bloodsworn are disbanded.

Brunhyldir learns of the Undead, and becomes interested in the ways of Iblees. He joins other followers, Ryder Bane and Guraim, in search of Undead ruins - The First Seed, 1310
July 15th, 2011
Notes: After the Bloodsworn were disbanded, Brunhyldir heard of the Undead and their patron, Iblees. Fascinated by the arts of evil, Brunhyldir sets out to become a follower of Iblees and discover the Undead’s hidden ruins.
He meets Ryder Bane along the way, and the two eventually convince the dwarf Guraim to join them in their dark quest.

The Trio meets a mysterious figure, who leads them to a ruined Undead fortress. Soon, Brunhyldir loses his allies, and he himself is sacrificed by Undead - c. 12th of The Grand Harvest, 1311
c. July 16th, 2011
Notes: The Trio meets a mysterious figure who has some sort of connection with the Undead. It agrees to escort them to a ruined Undead fortress, far from any known settlement.
Upon arriving at the ruins, the figure disappears, and the trio are left to explore for themselves. After splitting off from the group for only a moment, Guraim cannot be found.
Brunhyldir and Ryder Bane enter a crevice in the fortress, finding a secret latch. It is a trap, and they fall into a deep stone pit. Ryder Bane dies from the fall, yet Brunhyldir still has enough life to be aware of what is going on.
Far above him stand three figures, none of which Brunhyldir recognize at the time. These are the Undead called Freyj and Tyrion, and a sickly human known as Alexander ‘de Caux.
The last word Brunhyldir hears is “Burn” as molten lava seeps down into the pit, destroying him.

The Trio regroup and find their way back. The Undead Tyrion, once aware of their presence, warns them to leave. Ignoring him as they continue exploring, the trio are destroyed again - c. 20th of The Grand Harvest, 1311
c. July 16th, 2011
Notes: The Trio regroups after Brunhyldir and Ryder Bane respawn at the Cloud Temple. It turns out that Guraim hadn’t died – he got lost within the ruins, and after hearing the muffled shouts of his dying friends, ran away from the fortress.
They retrace their steps with Guraim’s help, and find their way back to the fortress. Upon arriving, a voice echoes throughout the ruins, telling them to leave. They ignore it, attempting to find a way inside the halls of the fortress.
Slowly, undead begin rising from the shadows. Skeletons and zombies alike begin to attack The Trio, killing Guraim within seconds. Ryder Bane and Brunhyldir make a sprint for a crevice within the fortress, but Ryder Bane is struck by lightning and dies before he makes it.
Brunhyldir, now hiding in a very small space, watches as the small legion of undead march toward him. He stares in awe as a giant abomination (Minecraft Giant mob) rises from the depths, reaching into the fortress and crushing him to dust with its putrid hand.

Local guards and bounty hunters begin tracking followers of Iblees. The Trio is constantly hunted and destroyed by various groups - c. The Sun’s Smile, 1311
c. July 17th, 2011
Notes: After dying again at the Undead fortress, The Trio is again split up by various groups that seek to destroy followers of Iblees. On several occasions, Ryder Bane, Guraim, and Brunhyldir are separately murdered by Peacekeepers, Wolverines, and town guardsmen.
Kayle Seek, a friend of Brunhyldir’s from Terriko Village, betrays their former friendship and claims a bounty on Brunhyldir’s head.

Brunhyldir dissolves from The Trio, seeing his pursuit of Iblees as worthless. They go their separate ways, and Brunhyldir makes his way to the human capital of Al’Khazar - c. The Deep Cold, 1311
c. July 19th, 2011
Notes: After being killed by the Undead twice and then hunted by various peacekeeping groups around Aegis, Brunhyldir gives up on his pursuit of following Iblees. He splits off from his friends, Ryder Bane and Guraim, and seeks solace in the human capital, Al’Khazar.

Brunhyldir trains to become a Priest under the tutelage of High Priest Everard Hightower - c. Malin’s Welcome, 1311
c. July 20th, 2011
Notes: Seeking solace for his evil deeds, Brunhyldir visits the cathedral in Al’Khazar, meeting the High Priest Everard Hightower. Brunhyldir talks to Hightower about the possibility of becoming a priest (in order to right his wrongs), even though he is an Orc. Hightower agrees to help him, sending him off to complete three trials of goodwill that would initiate Brunhyldir as a priest of Oren.
Brunhyldir completes two of the three trials before the next timeline event occurs, which inevitably halts his pursuit of priesthood.

“At the time I wasn't an Iblees worshipper, I was just saying to that guy (Guraim) that he should convert OUT of Iblees worship. I was and am a priest. And again, I had never heard of or seen that person [my assailant] before, and I don't think that he knew I WAS an Iblees worshipper.”
(I posted this ban request on July 21st, and three days later explained that I was attempting to sway Guraim out of Iblees worship because I was a priest. Assuming that I was already a priest on July 21st, then, I’ve also assumed that I began my training at least one day before, on the 20th.)

Brunhyldir becomes the first Orc Ascended - c. The Amber Cold, 1312
c. July 25th, 2011
Notes: Brunhyldir is invited to visit the Ascended City of Haven after cracking a funny joke to Ascended Sage Sue. Sage Sue gives him a tour of the city, and the two discuss their personal histories. Brunhyldir talks about his trials in becoming a priest, yet doesn’t mention any of his meddlings as a former follower of Iblees.
After an entire elven day within the city, the Sages discuss the possibility of recognizing Brunhyldir as Ascended, and end up accepting him into their ranks.
Brunhyldir becomes the first Orc Ascended, and the first Ascended to become an Acolyte in the “Warrior” sect.

Aside from battling the Undead when called upon, Brunhyldir serves as the first guard and gatekeeper of Haven - c. The Amber Cold, 1312 to The Deep Cold, 1313
c. July 25th - August 2nd, 2011
Notes: During his time among the Ascended, Brunhyldir would fight alongside his brothers and sisters against the Undead. He also guarded the gates of the Ascended city, Haven, from unwanted visitors and invaders.

Brunhyldir is approached by Master Sage Riizu with a plan to become a double-agent for the Ascended. Brunhyldir agrees - The Amber Cold, 1313
August 1st, 2011
Notes: Due to the recent death of King Perea by Undead hands, Master Sage Riizu resorts to dire measures to prevent the Undead uprising. He approaches Acolyte Brunhyldir with a plan: at the next major Undead attack, Brunhyldir would openly betray the Ascended, and gravely injure Riizu. The Master Sage’s hope was that, upon seeing this act of evil, the Undead would invite Brunhyldir into their ranks. Once he was among the Undead, Brunhyldir would secretly relay information about their battle plans and fortifications to the Ascended Sages.
After much thought, Brunhyldir agrees to this plan, honored to serve Aeriel in whatever way he could.

“[. . .] when you tried to come to the city [Haven] and people were trying to kill you, and I [Riizu] had to defend you [. . .]”
(In discussing my betrayal of the Ascended. Riizu notes the time after I had been inactive, coming back to the Ascended City of Haven and wishing to speak with Riizu. Other Ascended, knowing me as the Betrayer, attempted to kill me, but Riizu defended me as we were the ones who had enacted the plan.)

 

The Betrayal at Snowy Fields – Brunhyldir betrays the Ascended, and is accepted into the Undead - 21st of The Deep Cold, 1313
August 2nd, 2011
Notes: The time had come. The Undead were attacking the human settlement of Snowy Fields, and by the fiery strikes of lightning in the night sky, everyone in the north was alerted. This was the night that the plan would be enacted.
After the heroes of Aegis and the Ascended arrived at Snowy Fields, the major conflict began. The Undead had set up a tower made of bone and magma, where the Undead Overlord Tyrion was raining death upon the heroes.
As they stood back to back and fought off hordes of undead monsters, Master Sage Riizu whispered to Brunhyldir. “Now is the time.”
Brunhyldir shouted, “This is the last time you’ll see me, Sage. For Iblees!!” He struck down the Master Sage with a dagger, blood spurting onto both of them. There the Sage fell, nearly lifeless.
Immediately, the Overlord Tyrion smiled down on Brunhyldir. The Betrayer was brought up into the bone tower, where he was brought into the grasp of the Undead.
In reality, the curse of the Undead never touched Brunhyldir’s bones; Aeriel placed a disguised veil upon the Ascended, causing him to appear as an Undead would.

Brunhyldir awakes in the Undead plane of Drauchreich - The Snow’s Maiden, 1313
August 3rd, 2011
Notes: After betraying the Ascended and being magically disguised as an Undead, Brunhyldir awoke within Drauchreim, the Undead capital. Among those that welcome him is Alexander ‘de Caux, one of the three Undead that had sacrificed him two years prior. Alexander had felt pity for Brunhyldir as a fledgling Iblees worshipper, but now that the orc had nearly killed the Ascended Master Sage, that pity morphed into respect.
Brunhyldir begins to scope out the Undead stronghold, but already he begins to feel an uneasy aura affecting him.

Although he is physically guarded by Aeriel’s magic, Brunhyldir begins to succumb mentally to the miasmic Undead aura. He kills many innocent heroes of Aegis, despite his vow to the Ascended - c. Malin’s Welcome, 1313 to unknown date
c. August 4th, 2011 - unknown date
Notes: Brunhyldir’s attempts at reaching the Ascended Sages fail. In an effort to blend in among the Undead, Brunhyldir must take part in several conflicts at various Aegis settlements. Killing innocent people is out of the question… At first. Yet, through his own inner conflicts and the influence of the Undead aura, Brunhyldir begins to murder the innocent.

Aeriel still guards his soul, yet Iblees wrestles for control if it in his realm of Drauchreich.

Brunhyldir is driven mad by his own actions, caught at a crossroads between the influence of two powerful deities. He disappears for nearly a decade, attempting to restore his sanity - unknown date to c. The Sun’s Smile, 1321
unknown date - c. September 25th, 2011
Notes: The influence of the Undead around him, Drauchreich, and perhaps even Iblees and Aeriel themselves begins to drive Brunhyldir mad. He disappears for nearly a decade in an effort to cleanse his mind.

Brunhyldir returns, his sanity somewhat restored. He finds himself distanced from both groups, and quickly makes his way for Haven - c. The Sun’s Smile, 1321
c. September 25th, 2011
Notes: The Undead influence spread quickly across Aegis while Brunhyldir was gone. When he did return, his mind more eased, he found that his connections to both the Ascended and the Undead were weak. He knew that he needed to remove the magical Undead guise placed upon him, and inform the Ascended that he had returned.
Brunhyldir made for the Ascended City of Haven with that intention.
Location(s): N/A
Evidence:
Primary: (You can visibly see my hiatus by looking at my posts on the forums: nothing between August 2nd and September 24th, then a post again on the 25th. After returning, I visited Haven before the Ascended Sages left and deleted it, which was on the 27th of September. Thus I shall assume that the 25th, when I returned and made a post on the forums, was also the same day that I returned in-game.)

Brunhyldir is nearly killed upon his arrival at Haven, but Master Sage Riizu lifts his magical guise and shows that the orc is one of them. Brunhyldir rejoins the Ascended - c. The Amber Cold, 1321
c. September 26th, 2011
Notes: Upon arriving at Haven, several members of the Ascended see Brunhyldir (still in the appearance of an Undead) and attempt to kill him. Master Sage Riizu notices Brunhyldir, however, and commands the other Ascended to stop. He lifts the magical guise from the orc, and they see him as he once was: the Ascended Acolyte.
They welcome him back into the Ascended, but inform him that times have changed much since he had departed.

Notes: While exploring what remains of Aegis, Brunhyldir comes across a half-orc named Syrila, daughter of Vardak. Brunhyldir had met Vardak once before, and the two become friends. As Aegis unravels around them, Brunhyldir finds her to be one of very few companions left.

Brunhyldir is shunned by the Orcish people. Upon being reunited with Syrila, she slowly acclimates him to Orcish culture - c. The First Seed, 1352
c. January 20th, 2012
Notes: With no connections left, Brunhyldir’s first instinct is to return to his true brothers and sisters, the Orcs. Yet, once he set foot on the Orcish lands, he was immediately deemed a whitewash, and told never to return.
You see, while Brunhyldir was busy with the Ascended and the Undead, the Orcish people had also developed. They had reformed their language, culture, and practices – language, culture, and practices that Brunhyldir was completely unaware of.
He had thought all hope was lost, until he ran into Syrila again. She had proven herself to the Orcish people, and agreed to help Brunhyldir (as her friend) do the same.
Slowly, she began to teach him the Blah, and the cultural practices of the Orcish people.

After learning the Blah and the various cultural practices of the Orcs, Brunhyldir submits himself to a spiritual rebirth, renaming himself “Drakinroth” and embracing Orcish culture - The Amber Cold, 1353

Notes: Brunhyldir slowly learned the ways of the Orcish people from his friend, Syrila. He felt empowered, being among a family again.
On a trip outside the orcish capital, Brunhyldir had a spiritual epiphany, and decided to submit himself to somewhat of a rebirth. He chose a new name (rather, it chose him), “Drakinroth”, using it as a way for him to fully embrace the Orcish culture.
