Pyroneses
I was born in a rather large Elothean village.
When I was about five my parents sent me to join a guild in the nearby
city and after much research I decided that the moon mage guild was
the one I wanted to join and so I set off in search of the guild. After
about a days travels I reached the guild and starting my way up the
tower. After a little bit of trouble I reached the top and talked Kssarh
into letting me join his wonderful guild.
Within a few years I had mastered the arts of controlling the shadows
and had begun studying the arts of controlling moonbeams and reading
the future. I decided it was time to go back to my village and find
out how my parents where doing, and show off my all the secretive powers
I had learned. So I packed my goods and set off for the village.
It was incredibly quiet along the way and I didn't see anybody I knew
along the way which I thought was rather odd as the road to my village
was usually quite busy. Getting a little suspicious I pulled some shadows
around me and quietly stalked my way to the village.
When I got to my village I was horrified. The place was totally
destroyed! I could tell whatever happened was quite recent as some of
the houses were still on fire and my house was one of them. I rushed
over and managed to put the fire out using water from a nearby well.
After I had put out the fires I started checked the rubble for any survivors.
Everybody was dead, I was horrified, yet I hadn't found my fathers body.
Then I remembered the old shanty down by the river where I used to play
as a child. My parents always told me to go there if there was ever
any signs of trouble. I ran as fast as I could and when I got there
the door was already open. I went inside and there, on the floor, was
the dead body of my father with a large knife protruding from his back.
Instantly my body filled with rage and as I stared at the knife it flew
from my fathers back and straight through the door like it wasn't even
there. Then, I heard a horrible screaming sound and saw the body of
a Gorbesh assassin fall to the floor. The knife had struck him square
in the head killing him instantly!
After properly burying the members of my village I tried a few experiments.
If I concentrated long enough on something I could get it to move with
but a thought. The more I worked at it the easier it became. I had telekinetic
powers! In no time I learned to harness this great power in an instant
and when I mentioned this to Kssarh he began teaching me other dark
moon mage secrets of the mind.
That brings me to my current state. I have sworn an oath to destroy
the one who burnt my village to the ground. I constantly train my mind
as well as my body in the arts of war, always knowing that I must work
twice as hard then my opponent if I ever wish to find and kill him.
