Ghonost Sprite

Ghonost "Ghost" Sprite is a native Eldhamite Sea Elf and citizen of the Crownlands of Ashai, where he is the current mayor of Vritra in the Varn Torum region.

Early Years
Ghonost was born to Ghalahra Sprite and Eltara Sprite on the lower deck of a sea elven ship belonging to the Aytala fleet in the summer of the 42nd year of SMP. Ghonost was brought up on the lower deck in a communal fashion with the other children. He, therefore, saw the entire crew as family. As he grew up, Ghonost learned to navigate while at sea, along with the art of woodworking, the latter of which Ghonost would find fascinating. Simultaneously, Ghonost would develop a penchant for playing pranks on his peers, a habit which would earn him the nickname “Ghost”, a nickname he accepted with pride.

On his 30th birthday, in the 72nd year of SMP, Ghonost would receive the Sprite family heirloom, a large, neon green emerald, a gem he would later encrust into a vambrace of bronze and steel. This would be one of the last interactions Ghonost would have with his parents, as they fell ill and perished soon after. Ghonost has claimed his unwavering smile stems from a promise to his late mother. At the age of 32, while Ghonost was cleaning the upper deck at night, a storm had begun to brew above the ship. Ghonost, would fail to notice the storm until he was knocked off his feet by a lightning strike, panicked Ghonost grabbed onto one of the ship’s masts. Trying to stay aboard he held on to the mast with all he had in him though ultimately his efforts proved futile, and Ghonost was knocked overboard by a gust of wind, after which he would wash up on the coast of an island in the north.

Living on the isle
After washing up on the isle, Ghonost was disoriented by what he had just experienced, as anyone in their right mind would be. After coming to his senses, Ghonost began to explore the isle he had washed up on and found it to be uninhabited. He also discovered that the island was small, with fungi growing upon it, where the grass should be and had mushrooms growing as if they were trees. Although, this was not the case for the isle's northern coast as it had grass and trees.

Deciding he quite liked the strange environment, Ghonost chose to stay on the isle for the foreseeable future and named the island 'Shroom Port Isle', making it his base of operations. He would soon start building structures on the island, the first of which was a poorly made wooden dock, after which he started constructing a tower to serve as his home.

Druk Yul
Ghonost would eventually discover that the island was in Edrina, an area within Druk Yul territory. Fearing being labelled as a "squatter", Ghonost would try to reach out to the Druk Yul and come into contact with Ronin Bear and eventually become a citizen of the nation.

While now a citizen of this nation, Ghonost continued to live in solitude on the island, where he spent most of his time fishing. Ghonost eventually replaced the poorly made wooden dock with a better-looking alternative.

Ghonost would later receive an invite to join the town of Vritra from Ronin Bear, which he accepted, though he would neither move into a house nor build his own within the city for the time being. Ghonost would soon restore nearby ruins within the town borders to a liveable condition.

Ghonost would later move into the Druk Yul capital Dragon's Point, in which he constructed a house to serve as his new base of operations, therefore abandoning 'Shroom Port Isle' his previous base.

Vritra and Kaanyiu
Ghonost would go on to inherit the leadership of Vritra from the previous leader, Ronin Bear, during the town's transfer from Druk Yul to the Sultanate of Kaanyiu, a vassal state of the Uraki Imperium. During Ronin's time as leader of Vritra, it suffered a population decline, so Ghonost would have to repopulate the town. Simultaneously he would also be ordered to reinvent its architecture. During this period, Ghonost would leave Dragon's Point.

Aurum Solis
Kaanyiu would eventually become a province of Uraka, whereafter it became a part of the dominion of Aurum Solis. During the fall of Uraka, Aurum Solis was one of the many parts of the empire which rebelled, Ghonost would stay in Vritra and therefore side with Aurum Solis.

While mayor Ghonost would become infatuated with brewing and the idea of running a tavern, he would hire a skilled builder to construct a tavern within Vritra. This new tavern would use the former mayor Ronin Bear's basement by refurnishing it and turning it into an underground brewery. Ghonost would immediately, after the construction of said tavern, delve into studying the art of brewing, learning how to brew several alcoholic beverages.

When Ghonost became aware of King Stridder Braddington's intentions to execute his youngest child 'Mossoraurus Rex', he, along with the King's son Prince Reuban Braddington and the warlord Kyrion would come together and form The Tuberlunde Protectorate of the Dinosaur.
