Race: Dragonborn (Elf)
Class: Beguiler 4 / Shadow Adept 1 / Mindbender 1 / Shadowcraft Mage 5 / Shadowcrafter 7
Alignment:
True Neutral
Appearance:
A moderately armored reptilian creature of draconic nature stands before you. His armor is largely black and purple, perhaps a connection to some sort of royal blood or a twinge of narcissism. His midnight blue scales catch the moonlight with a silver shimmer. His head sports two small sets horns that stab backwards into his shoulder-blade length, silvery-white hair. Vestiges of his old Elven Heritage manifest in a pair of pointed protrusions on the sides of his head behind and around his ear holes like pseudo-natural blue scaled elven ears. His eyes are an icy blue, almost teal and have wisps of shadows trailing from their corners as though concealing what secrets lie beyond their gaze. On his back are a pair of fully functional wings, the pinnacle of draconic inheritance.
His form almost seems to be constantly insubstantial, as though concealed by a mysterious magical force that hides in the crevaces of his armor and the shadow(s) that he casts on the ground.
When Combat Ready, he often disappears entirely, bending the light aroiund him to conceal himself. His hands 'glow' black with shadow-like emanations of energies. His spells often occur without a word, pulling off effects ranging from evocation to conjuration.
Personality:
- He finds enjoyment in wandering and exploring the world.
- He's sometimes more than willing to banter, or joke with those he trusts.
- He tries to avoid having to fight, but his wrath is often more than most can handle.
- He has become more goal oriented, and obsessed with the continued stability of the world.
- He has grown to become cautious in dealing with established associations and is sometimes willing to play from the fence.
- Though generally nice, he can be harsh when it could mean success/failure or life/death.
- He values friends and family, when he can find them.
Background (False):
Early in his childhood his Parents had him go through the Ritual of Rebirth. Due to financial stress a few months later they were forced to give Syrius to an orphanage in the hopes that he could live there and they could make ends meet on their own before going to 'Adopt' him. Syrius was too young to remember much of his parents after a few years passed.
Life at the orphanage was … frustrating. The more rambunxious and obnoxioius of them often pulled on his wings or tail to make him fall. It wasn't till he was seven years old when his magical potential broke loose that he found peace. A Little illusionary monsters here, some fake smoke and fire there… No one messed with him after that.
Needless to say… His parents never came for him. All he recieved, when he was old enough to live on his own, was a letter from the Orphanage Director from his parents that explained themselves, their actions, and all that was left that they had (~100 GP). His parents became criminals out of desperation and were hung for their crimes.
Ever since Leaving the Orphanage, Syrius had told himself he would never end up like them… but as time went on, he too became desperate. Stealing trinkets to pay for food, he became to understand the life that his Parents had to lead. They wanted better for him though, and he knew it. It wasn't until he met a flamboyant construct that his life made that turn.
Backgound (True):
Hothien and Eleniel did their tasks well, becoming prominent assassins for The Veiled Society and following the cryptic orders of their immediate superiors, Grixis the Soulrender, and Ra-men himself. They became a central part of Operation Subversion, joining the Dragonport Thieves Guild only to undermine its goals, eliminate its members, and convert dissatisfied members to The Veiled Society. During this time and while still undercover, the two wed and received blessings from both organizations they served
However, serving two organizations took a toll on the couple. However, in their minds they were eternally grateful to Nerull for the gift of their lives and their ability to please him with the various murders they conducted. When asked if they planned on having offspring, they noted that they had no time for children as their lives were devoted to Nerull. However, one day they were called into a special meeting, and were told to reconsider, which for the love of their Deity Nerull, they did.
And thus Project Dragonborn Subversion began. As Elves, Hothien and Eleniel had a considerable lifespan, enough time to be considered significant compared to the lifespan of dragons. This meant that their child would share their long life, and the Dragonborn Ritual would only increase that lifespan. As such, this would be enough time for their progeny to gain the attention, respect, and trust of Dragonkind only to be able to use that influence later to betray and annihilate them.
2 Years later, young Syrius was born. A dark spell was planted within him to one day manifest itself and impel a deep evil and antipathy towards dragons and a sympathy towards the College of Necromancy. Hothien and Eleniel loved their son very much and tried to spend what little free time they had with him. When he was old enough, Hothien and Eleniel disguised themselves as Draconic Devotees in order to get the Dragonborn ritual conducted for their son. The ritual worked, and Syrius's new form revealed itself, combining the elven elegance and grace with the Draconic might and power.
However their deceptions eventually caught up with them. Some members of the Dragonport Thieves Guild learned of their dark affiliation, and demanded large sums of money to keep quiet about it. The couple feeling they had few options paid the blackmailers for many months. Eventually they set up a trap, wherein their blackmailers would get annihilated altogether in a large group mission. In order to avoid suspicion, the couple arranged for themselves to get caught by the Dragonport City Guard.
They Were Hanged in the City Square as punishment for their crimes. However, they used the hanging as part of the final ritual to become a Necropolitan. That night, they rose again as undead, and resumed their positions within the Veiled Society full time.
The situation was unfortunate. In order to keep their cover as being deceased, they were forced to abandon their baby boy, Syrius.
