Achatius grew up in a very poor village outside of Helena, His father was a great warrior in this village known for his time in the war of two Emperors, he lead the patrols and repelled every attack they had ever faced, while his mother was a sickly woman who worked herself to an early grave when he was only 5. After this his father became a heavy drinker, often coming home to beat Achatius. At the age of 15 Achatius struck his father back, his father stumbled due to being drunk and smashed his head against a wall he was dead. Afraid of what might happen to him he fled only taking a sword his father has used in the many defenses of the city. On his travels he met a old elf, the elf offered to teach Achatius swordsmanship skills he had learned over the years. He excelled in every style of fighting or swordsmanship he was taught, even still he struggled when it came to archery. Achatius now being 17 knew his time to leave would come soon, after all he was soon to be a man. He spend that last year with the elf training in everyway he could, promising that he would come to visit the elf again someday. One thing this elf had said to him had stuck and that was, “placing your faith in an invisible deity is illogical.” because of this he never found a religion and was often mocked by humans but the high elves understood him stance.
