Personal History:
When I was young to these lands of Norland, I was truely
awestruck by their beauty. I came here when one of the great moons was
pulled out of orbit by Deori himself. my people were scattered across the
lands as the moon pulled apart. We floated around space, some for years,
others for centuries. It is impossible to keep track of the days when there
is no sunrise, only darkness.
When my day came to descend from the heavens, I was left
alone, a young naive elf, trained only a bit in the ways of sorcery by his
elders with no idea of direction or not a bit of gold to his name. I found
myself in a desert town, it took me some time to adjust to the heat but as
my eyes came into focus I was a bit overwhelmed. There were many people
around me, of many different races. A group of what looked like orcs, and
an ogre right next to a pack of the towns Knights. I backed away, sure that
there must be a fight breweing.
I backed down a street I learned to be called Serpent, and as
if I was thrown from the frying pan into a fire, I stood before a Great
dragon, his scaled shimmering and shifting in hue. I stood still, frozen in
fear, my eyes locked on his so far up above my head. I tried to chant a
lesser spell I had mastered, but the fear was too great.
"Wot are you staring at?" He asked me. "The name's Aoveron,
you new around here or something?" A puff of smoke shot out of his nose as
he finished his question, and then a grin stretched across his great mouth.
Then a great light overtook his form and after a moment it faded, an elf
stood before me.
"By the Gods, that was amazing!" I shouted. "You must be a
very powerful wizard, even more so than my elders!" Aoveron smirked at my
comment.
"I like you, what did you say your name was?" He asked, and
I responded. "Yes, I like you Elijah, let me show you a place you might
find very fitting."
I followed him further down the street. The heat did not
seem so great in this part of town, the air seemed more comfortable to
breath. We progressed further and further down the road until we came to a
gate guarded by two gargoyles.
"This is it," he said, looking at me with a great grin on his
face. "the Wizard's Guild, Devardec's finest. I think you will be able to
learn much here, Elijah, and you will fit in well." We entered the gate and
he introduced me to Illuin and I was quickly admitted.
Aoveron would prove to be my greatest mentor, and my best
friend. He introduced me to Mystikdreamer, who also helped me learn so much
that for a short time she let me take over for one of our guild tutors. He
brought me to the Order of Wizardry, where I would meet Jasra, Streen,
Blackwing, Ankona and other great wizards who would teach me even more. He
showed me the ways of Davar, and helped me gain entrance to his temple.
Davar was a great a god as I could ever imagine, and Tayrah a wonderful
heroine.
When Davar went into the void, and then Tayrah followed, and
the sprelf went to the moons, I became very reclusive. Retired to my lab
for months, years at a time. It had seemed I could learn all that I could
from others, and took to teaching myself. Solitude was all i had for
centuries, solitude and my library. It drove me quite mad towards the end.
I forgot what the sun looked like, and even more so I missed the moons.
It was not until recently that I emerged. I could remember
the day I came to norland, the people I met and the places I saw, but
something was missing. That feeling of beauty, I had not felt it in so
long, and the lack of that feeling started to consume me. So I emerged from
my dark lab, and have found many new faces with much new knowledge to share,
as if coming to terris all over again. I look forward to adding much more
to my story.
