History


   Ausar was born in the wilds where his mother and father had a small cabin nestled deep in the rugged woods. Far from most things that could cause danger to Ausar has Richard would draw to himself and his family from time to time. He was raised there with his mother most of the time. Ayara was a caring mother that went missing during a situation as she was presumed dead even to this day. Ausar was three years old when she went missing as he then stayed with his father, Richard more often.

   Though his father taught Ausar lessons of life, he was not a very caring father as he was often strict in teaching the boy. Ausar learned as he grew, though his constant yearning for a mother ate away at him over the few years that passed by. Ausar continued his home schooling with his father, learning to read and write as he was at the age of five now. His father told him that they'd have to leave the home that was nestled in the wilds. Ausar didn't like the idea of leaving his home. The only place he knew of in his life at that point. Though not liking the idea of leaving, he finally agreed with his father as he packed what few things he could carry as he left his home.

   Ausar and his father left the home situated in the wilds. They walked for days and days as they eventually came to a large city. They walked in through the main gates. Ausar was amazed to see all the people or vast races and cultures converging there. He kept close to his father, staying quiet as they walked on, eventually coming to a large dock with large ships stationed at them. Richard lead his son to the ship directly out in front of the docks as they boarded. Ausar didn't mind the boat. He felt somewhat safe floating on the vessel actually as it bobbed and swayed back n' forth. Days went past as they sailed on the large ship. Waves battered the hull as Ausar thought of what was to come, what he would see. Where he was going, these things were playing through his mind. They eventually made it to land, docking and traveling for more days.

   Finally after going through vast mountains and valleys. They had arrived at a great keep, half encased in a mountain. The Cursed Rock as some would call it. Ausar was left there by Richard as he went on to delve and search for knowledge. Ausar didn't mind the place, he thought it was neat seeing such a large structure and having access to it. He wandered the halls, scouted off ledges. Anything to pass the time. He met a few people of interest there. Elysius. Who was a giant of an elf, though kindness is all that radiated from him. Ausar was cared for by him after time. He taught Ausar how to stand while fighting, hold a blade and even deflect attacks with a sword. Ausar had great respect for him though he went missing after some time. In that time, Ausar was taken on delves with the Delvers and his father, sparking his interest in adventuring outside into Anthos.

   Ausar met a young high elf girl named Yulna too. Though he didn't know much of her for a the first year of going to the Delver's keep, he got to know her. They eventually started to spar one another. Fighting fist to fist. Even using their teeth against each other. Ausar and Yulna continued to spar, talk and get to know each other as the moths passed. They formed a close friendship as time passed. Though their friendship has become a bit more then just being friends as a loving bond formed between the two as time time passed.

   Ausar eventually grew bored of being around the Delver's keep, his thirst for adventure no longer being sated there. He'd found himself venturing from the walls in the surrounding forests, searching for anything of interest, which he hardly found. He began to travel farther as time went on. Learning the landscape and sharpening his skills in climbing and running. Ausar found himself traveling farther then he even thought he'd go. Going south into the hot, dry desert lands of the uruks, to the coastlines of the continent. He enjoyed traveling as he ofter would find something of interest from time to time. He went to Malinor for a walk when he ran into a girl who seemed to be in dire with a tiger cub. The cub was hurt So Ausar helped her by bringing it back to the keep, though the cub died from its injuries, Ausar got Lyra to join the Delvers over time.

   He took her on his adventures with him, showing her how to "Take" things properly. Without drawing attention to ones doings. Ausar also took Yulna out on his adventures. Showing her his interest in taking things that weren't his. He met people, mad some friends, enemies as well on his travels as months went by. His father though showing less interest in raising him sa time went on, depending on the Delvers to raise him, which didn't work too well, seeing as only one or two people actually cared for the boy. Ausar eventually ran into Lley. A young elven women who was small though loving in her nature. She instantly attached to Ausar, caring for him and concealing Ely's fate from him for a while in doing so.

   Though Ausar eventually found out through talking with here, this too weighted on Ausar as he cared for Elysius. Time passed as Lley continued to care for Ausar, taking him with Valmir and her to Gallamore. They stayed there for days, enjoying the sea air and sights. Though after some time Ausar awoke in the room he stayed in, Valmir and Lley seemed to leave him on the island all by himself. Ausar eventually made it back to Anthos, though it took him some time to paddle against the waves. Ausar came back to the keep, angered and confused as he had heard Lley went missing.

   This made Ausar angry as he went searching of Lley for some time, eventually finding her and sorting the issue out. Time continued on as his bond with Lley grew. Time went by as Valmir eventually came to Ausar, telling him of the ill new of Lley's fate. How she was torn apart from the creatures of the north. This scarred Ausar deep as Lley being one of the only people he cared about was literally ripped from him. Ausar was disturbed by this. Nightmares haunted him of the foul minions gouging at her as she screamed in agony. Time passed as it became more evident to the effects it bared on the boy.

  The boy has been growing in the past years, though his mind is more troubled now, not seeing his father for a year and a half, Lley and Elysius being killed, multiple others betraying him and his word, leading to him becoming cold and angered as the time passed. A graven seems to have attached itself to Ausar in some duty bound pact. As it seems to pry at him from time to time, attempting to break him into looking into its eyes. Which Ausar has seen somewhat before. A horrid vision of himself burning in a giant pit for all eternity. Which was broken due to someone shooting the Graven in the head as it had ahold of Ausar. This ghastly creation, with the rest of the tensions upon him now eat at him, causing him to be irrational and hot headed at times.

   Ausar also has gotten into his first fight that he had to defend himself. In the Delver owned village, a man approached Ausar while he attended to picking debris from a fellen tree up. The man stared at Ausar, almost meaningfully as Ausar stared back. The man eventually flared up, staing for Ausar to leave, which at that time Ausar had a heated Argument with Myth about his father and his absence from his life. This and the pain he felt from the loss of Lley and ely made him aggressive to the threat, the man drew his blades at Ausar, though the boy didn't back down, Ausar drew his own sword. The londsword he had found in a crypt a few days earlier. The blade was well forged, large engraves ran down the blade as Ausar held it high. His eyes burned with anger as the man made his first attempt in an attack against Ausar.
 
   Their swords clashed as Ausar stepped back from the force of the blow. The man continued to look down at Ausar, though the boy continued to stand his ground, anger fueling his motivation to do so as he bared his teeth at the man. The man eventually tried to sheath his weapons and take up his bow, which Ausar took advantage of by pressing the attack. Slicing at his chest and following the swing through to the man's right arm, he disarmed the bow from his hand as the man fell from a nearby ledge to avoid his arm being cut off. Ausar gave chase, still enraged the man struck at him fro no reason really as he ran on the higher ground along next to the fleeing man.
 
   Ausar eventually jumped from the ledge, falling at the man at the right timing as the man was stabbed in the foot, causing him to fall onto the field he was in. Ausar attempted to fight against the rage that was build in himself. All the anger and sorrow he felt built up. He tried, though failed as he released his rage, plunging his blade directly into the man's chest as he begged for mercy. Ausar watched the man curl over in dirt as the rain started to fall. Ausar felt a bit of guilt, though he felt better from killing the man for some reason. A reason he couldn't figure out as he walked off, attempting to clear his mind as time went by. He eventually met a high elf woman by the name of Cathilie.
 
   Though the first time they met, it was with the Graven talking to him and attempting to make Ausar look into its eyes. Which he evaded. He met her again in the Delver's keep, this time as an elf and her were planting giant mushrooms that gave off hallucinogenic spores. Which Ausar breathed in. In fact he was trapped in the keep for a long period of time, exposed to the symptoms of the spores as they dosed his system. Ausar was eventually taken from the keep by Calithlile, which she knocked him out first as she had a friend then carry him to DarkHaven. Ausar awoke, confused and recovering from the mass amounts of spores taken into his system.
 
   She told him that one of the Delvers had clubbed him and she had taken him to safety. Ausar believed her as she also has allowed him a spot in the keep there as well. Myth then showed up, talking to Calithilie and Ausar. After a bit, Myth was going to show Cali his ability in manipulating the void and pull mana from it to create fire. One of the elements. As Myth did this, The Fungi covered elf approached Myth, clubbing him in the back, this made Ausar draw his blade and go after the Elf. Though the Fungi Elf then stabbed Myth in the chest, giving him a fatal wound as Ausar plunged the long sword he'd found into the back of the fungi Elf, causing him to drop to the floor.
 
   This made Ausar feel good as well, seeing the Fungi Elf in pain for what he'd done to Myth. Myth fell off the back wall as Ausar went over to aid him, hopping off the wall in the process. Ausar was attempting to help Myth as Cali threw the Fungi Elf onto Myth as she then cast flames onto them. Ausar jumped back as the chemicals on the Fungi Elf's back began to set aflame themselves, no longer using the fires created by Cali's spell. ausar had to jump into the river to evade the flames that spat at him. Myth didn't make it out though as he was burned alive in the process. Though the monks brought Myth back, Ausar still thinks Myth's dead.

   This has had majoir effects on Ausar as his father has stopped coming around all together. Not to mention Ausar running into him and his father not even acknowledging him. Ausar looked into his fathers eyes as they seemed distant, even from the range Ausar was at, he could tell something was not right. Though Ausar didn't care. Tilting his head down a bit as he turned and began to walk off without another word. Now saddened and angry from thinking of things from his recent and distant past.

  Time passed, he moved on from the thoughts of his father's distant eyes. He eventually made his way back to the keep of the Delvers, though when he returned two people were there. Two elves. One had fungi and mushrooms growing on his body, the other was a familiar face. Though she wore a mask when Ausar walked into the keep. Little did he know, they were growing giant, hallucinogenic mushrooms. Filling the base with the spores that floated freely from them. Ausar soon started to feel the effects, his body being overwhelmed by the potency of the drug as his mind began to slip.
 
   Sending him into a state that left him in a horrific conjuration of his mind. He barely held his mind straight as Calithilie lead him around the base, even to one of the rooms with the spore producing mushrooms were. After a while, Calithilie asked Ausar if she could see his sword, which he allowed her to. For that split second, she raised the blade up and brought the flat side down onto the top of his head, rendering him unconscious. She managed to carry him to an open spot in the wall of the keep, pushing him to the ground. There she found someone to aid in carrying him to Darkhaven. After awhile, he awoke there as Cali told him one of the Delvers had struck him on the head when he wasn't looking.
 
    Ausar believed her as she also told him he could stay there. Even though Ausar didn't know her well, he still seemed to naturally trust her. Time continued to pass as he spent more of his time in Darkhaven, talking to Calithilie, going out and stealing stuff together. All types of fun things. More time passed as he gained her trust. One night, Ausar was sitting out front of the Delvers base as Kinra was there too. He tried to have a conversation with her. Though she responded in a worried tone to stop bugging her. Ausar gave up on making conversation, sitting on the steps to be let in when Calithilie showed up with two other figures. One, who was dressed in an outlandish attire, he had crimson red hair. The other was a cloaked figure in black. Calithilie asked Ausar to join them as she eventually talked Kinra into speaking with her in private.
 
    Which she did after Cali sent the other two off. Calithilie asked Ausar to go with them, which he did. They went to a remote location after weaving through the forests at a quickened pace. They eventually climbed a hill and sat. Calithilie began to discuss her plans to rid Art from the Delvers, something Ausar didn't have anything to do with. After some time, Kinra got up and left, which Calithilie and Ausar made their way off too. Some time later, Ausar was walking on the road as he stopped, looking over as he seen Art, Nienna and Isabella outside of some fort. Nienna looked at Ausar with a look that could kill, though he didn't think anything of it at the time. She instantly raced over to him, grabbing his arm with force and dragged him off to the side of the path.
 
   They stopped as they reached a bridge, Isabella, Art and Nienna all standing there as Nienna then said out loud that Ausar had planned to assassinate Art. Ausar didn't know how to respond, he knew he couldn't betray Calithilie, though he still cared for the Delvers, this made Ausar fall silent. Unable to answer the questions they asked. Art eventually used his illusion magic to cause Ausar to become dreary, eventually passing out from the effects as they carried him back to the keep. They tossed him into a cell, questioned him, used magic to attempt to make him talk and even stabbed him in the shoulder. After a beating, he still wouldn't talk. He sat in the cell for days. The darkened room, only illuminated by a small candle on the wall was all he seen for that time. After a while, Ausar attempted to use a rock that he had in his bag to hit the lever outside his cell, which worked perfectly as the rock fell on the lever from the toss, it allowed the gate to lift, ushering his escape.
 
   He ran around the keep for some time. Looking for an exit. He made it in the upper part of the keep. Attempting to smash the lock from the door, which failed. The only other option he had, was the front gate. Ausar crept back down to the ground floor, made his way around the halls by creeping slowly, along the sides of the walls. He eventually came to the main chamber, he seen Kinra, standing with her back turned as he took out his rock of clubbingness. He slowly made his way up to her, though she turned around and locked eyes with him. They stared at each other for a moment as she then yelled for one of the Delvers to catch him, he instantly turned around and ran back into the catacombs of the keep. Just wanting to get out as he frantically looked for an exit. He eventually sat in a corner, hoping they'd just go away, which they didn't.
 
   Ausar was eventually killed from a stab to the back of his neck as he laid on the floor defenseless, pinned down by a mages conjured beast. He awoke some time later at Cloud Temple, having a large scar across his neck, by the one he received from the beasts of the north so many years ago. Ausar knew he couldn't go back to the Delvers. After time, Calithilie's words began to ring in his head. Her hatred for the Delvers now starting to build within himself. Though still caring for a few certain members within their walls, though only to a point. Ausar, now living in Darkhaven with the Shad'rin. Myth came to Darkhaven after some time passed, though he didn't come alone. He brought the same woman, Isabella who was there when the Delvers captured him. This threw him into a worried fit, thinking they were only there to bring him back to the Delvers. Myth attempted to talk Ausar into leaving the Shad'rins home.
 
   Though it didn't work. Myth ended up clubbing Ausar over the head, rendering him unconscious for a bit. Isabella and Myth talked for a bit, which bought Ausar enough time to regain his consciousness, which he leapt up and drew his blade. Eventually Isabella calmed Myth back from fighting Ausar as he backed away to the wall, then edged to the doorway as Isabella then told him to seek her out if he ever changed his mind in the Driud's grove. He turned and ran without another word, just getting away from them as he seen them as a threat. After some time, Calithilie brought him to a remote location that was far from Darkhaven. Ausar had never seen the place before in his life. They both sat right in front of each other, see then proceeded to ask him if he wanted to become a full fledged member, which he said yes to.
 
   She then asked for his hand. He stuck his left hand out as he then took his hand, palm up. Her other hand pulled a strange dagger from her beltline, she admired the blade for a moment before placing the edge onto his hand. She sliced his skin as blood flowed out. Ausar cringed at the pain, though didn't flitch. She then removed her hand that held his wrist, cutting her hand as she then held her hand above his. The blood dripped onto his hand, changing from a crimson red, to a purple. The blood then seeped towards his cut, almost seeking it out as it then made its way into his veins. It sizzled and burned as Ausar gritted his teeth, the pain was almost unbearable.  She then clasped their hands together, a small purple flame ignited around their hands.
 
   Moments later she removed her hand as the cut was now only a scar. Ausar looked in disbelief at the sight. They then left the area, returning back to Darkhaven. After a few days, Ausar was weakened to what seemed to be the flu. He layed down and when he awoke, his eyes were altered, now a different color as a marking of being infused. This made Ausar feel good, made him feel as he belonged with the Shad'rins. A family for him to live with that sees things similar to himself. 
 
   Time continued to pass as Ausar followed Calithilie loyally. Always taking her orders,
hardly thinking about what the outcome would be. He cared not as he thought he had found a new family. Though after a while, Calithilie seemed to go missing for months on end. No word was sent to Ausar of her whereabouts. Though he continued to scan the land for anything of interest that he could steal. Eventually making his way to the bordering town of the Delvers keep. There he came across two figures, one wearing a blue and gold suit with a mask wrapped around her face. Ausar instantly went on the attack as he climbed onto the wall she was standing at, making his way towards the masked woman as he drew his long sword.
 
   Though to his surprise, the woman suddenly summoned a small jet of fire as she cast it directly at him, Setting the front of his chest on fire for a brief time as he fell of the wall. Ausar rolled around on the ground as his chest plate seared into his flesh from the heat as he screamed. Though he was able to put the flames out from rolling in the dirt as he then sat up, looking up at the masked woman who now made her way down the wall towards him. Ausar crawled back, then shuffled to his feet as he still clutched his trusted long sword in his left hand, panting from the pain. The women instructed Ausar to run, though hearing her voice let him know who was under the mask. Knowing Calithilies voice from years of hearing it, he shifted from his angered state, practically crawling to Cali's feet. Begging for her to realize who he was. Why she was attacking him. All these thoughts running through his head as she kicked at him a bit as he layed on the ground in front of her.
 
   She walked up, grabbing his face as she administered a dose of refined Nightsap with force, causing him to pass out after a few moment. Then after she and another women carried him to he Delvers keep where he was taken to a room within the fort. Though shortly after, Nienna made an appearance and instructed Calithilie to bring him elsewhere, which she did. Once brought to the disclosed location, she left Calithilie and Ausar in the torture room as Calithilie began to ruthlessly kill Ausar slowly. Stabbing him with multiple blades, tearing at his flesh as she eventually ripped his beating heart from his chest. Ausar was brought back from the mysterious powers of the monks sometime after, only having memories of everything that took place in the village and when he awoke in the torture room, feeling immense pain from the withdrawal effects of the refined Nightsap before he was killed. Now only having those memories to fuel his thoughts of where Calithilie went. Though Ausar still has his mind, his anger and the constant issues of being abandoned in his past have pushed him to only rely on himself. No longer seeing anyone in general of being trustworthy.

After some time, Ausar was traveling the mountains that bordered the Delvers keep. As he roamed across a familiar spot, he saw a figure sitting out by the edge, looking down at the view of the land. As he slowly approached the figure, he drew one of his trusty daggers from his belt. Closer and closer he got to the person as he was only feet now. He slowly reached out with his right hand, grasping the person's shoulder as they spun around to meet him with a dagger as well. Though as a few moments passed and he realized who it was, he seen it was the one person who still remained on the good side of himself. The only part of himself that hangs onto his humanity. She held the dagger up at him, anger flowed through her face as he seen it. He began to explain himself, his disappearance over the years. Everything that had transpired he explained to her. After awhile of her sitting in almost shock, she broke down and began to cry loudly, both of them embracing each other in a hug.

They continued to talk through the night as things eventually faded from view(huehue). As the months passed and they continued to meet at a disclosed location, Yulna eventually came to the realization that she was pregnant with his child. She told him during one of their visits as he stood there. Ausar's mind processed what he heard as something in his mind changed a bit. His anger was partially snuffed by the words of his lover in a sense. Months continued to pass as Ausar went to work, building a home for him and his family to stay in and be safe as well. Which was provided by an old friend of course. Months continued to pass as Ausar finally finished the home. He left one day as he than met up with Yulna again as he took her and their unborn child to their new home. They walked for days as they came to the place, making their way inside as they got to the freshly built lair. Yulna gazed around in awe as Ausar showed her around the place.

After doing so, Ausar than took a rest on the couch, which yulna continued to look around the home. After a bit, something was shown to be off about her though. She began to groan and wince in pain as Ausar than had an idea what was wrong. The baby was coming. Ausar took care of her in the hours that passed, eventually delivering his own child into Anthos with a proud smile on his face. After a bit, he handed his newly born daughter to Yulna, asking what should be her name. Yulna replied with one word only. Claudia. Ausar nodded in agreement, loving the name his mate had chosen. It fit her perfectly he thought as he looked at the two.

 

Time passed. He continued to aid in raising Claudia with Yulna. His mind somewhat nulled by his recent and extended past by his child. Though as time went on. Ausar's mind began to creep to the darker thoughts that were held within the crevises on his head. Though for a while he held out. Still raising his daughter as well as tending to things that he saw fit to do. Often going out to collect up food, water. Anything of nessesity that needed to be brought or done around their home. Though as days and weeks passed. His mind lingered once more. Eventually. Ausar left his lair. Leaving Yulna with his daughter to be safe. He continued on into the far reaches of the land to try and attempt to dininish his sickened thoughts of gutting people alive. Torturing those he had negitive encounters with. All these things slowly drew him back to his old ways.

 

After nearly a year of leaving home. Ausar finally returned back into the outskirts of civilization. Slowly making his way down the trails he had left beind as he neared his old home. He made his way in only to find the place was deserted and ransacked. Everything he had saved from when he was a boy upto now. Gone. It seemed someone had literally broken through the wall to his home and scoured up everything. Even Yulna and Claudia were nowhere to be seen. Thick dust now covering counters, ovens and makeshift furniture. His eyes began to burn with the low. Purple glow as his thoughts races. His daughter. The only thing he had cared for. Was taken away it seems. Yulna left the home for him to find in its condition. He stormed through the place. Throwing chairs and heaving anything he could pickup or get his hands around. 

 

Ausar eventually stormed from his old home. He managed to find a few things in a hidden stash before doing so though. Such as an old blade his father gave him when he was young. To a few old. Extremely stale cookies that were given to him by someone from his past. As Yulna took Claudia from him. He went on to find a new purpose. His anger swelling to a certain point once more as his past choices digs into his sanity. He continued traveling around the countryside. stealing and sleeping where he saw fit. Ausar's outlook on things changed within himself though over time as well. As he fought against the chaos that enstilled in his mind. A calmer side of himself has also taken shape in his conscious as a way for his mind to balance his thoughts. Though his actions are still chaotic and sometimes unpredictible
