Origins
Spectral's origins are not really known, however it is suspected that he ended up in Rathnir after his ship crashed into land, covered in forest and mountains.

Spectral's life on Rathnir
Spectral woke up on a low-lying field, surprisingly with only neck pains, however he had almost forgotten everything that happened before the ship crashed, except the need to build shelter, that he had to protect from the elements, and that his previous home was somewhere out there, but not sure where.

Spectral spent much of his early time in Rathnir mining stone, logging, and creating tools that he would use to build his settlement. While building his settlement, he found refuge in a nearby cave, eventually after several months, he had built his settlement. It wasn't pretty, but it provided good shelter for him.

Abandonment
Spectral while living in his settlement, constantly had an urge to go back to his previous home, and decided one day to leave everything he had currently behind to try and return home.

He broke apart his house, leaving it in ruins, and took all of the times in bags that he would tie his back. Several decades on, his abandoned house would later be destroyed by people that lived in the area nearby that didn't know the history behind this house.

He took a flimsy boat with him, and rowed it into the ocean hoping to return home.

Lost and Sinking
After hours of being out at sea, Spectral had gotten lost, and even worse, his boat started sinking fast, he tried desperately to remove the water flood his boat, to no avail. Spectral would eventually sink, pass out, and be carried by the waves to a new landmass named Eldham.

Early Beginnings on Eldham
Spectral woke up on the side of a river in a jungle, he somehow still had his belongings loosely tied too his back, soaked in ocean water.

He was frustrated that he had not returned home, and gave up trying, and accepted that this jungle will be his new home, with his pickaxes and tools in his bag, he collected resources to build a home in the jungle, he stayed in a nearby cave while his home was being built. Halfway through finishing his home, he was approached by someone by the name of WonderedBug.

WonderedBug gave Spectral a choice, he could either join WonderedBug's nation, or could move away, Spectral decided to move away, being overly suspicious and paranoid.

Spectral left the cave, and took his belongings, leaving his half built home behind, and decided to travel somewhere that would be far away from any nation. He ended up traveling to the other side of Eldham, and decided to make a desert biome his home, along a river.

Spectral with his supplies again, started to build a home in the desert, however less than 10 percent through building this home, Spectral was approached by someone that went by Merc1377. Spectral was asked if he wanted to join his nation by the name of Mercurian Republic. Spectral gave up on refusing nation invites, and decided to join his nation.

Joining Mercury
After joining Mercury, Spectral was invited to a tour of the capital, Maia. Spectral was impressed, and ended up settling on a small island in Maia. Spectral spent several days building a mage tower as his home, which can still be seen in Maia today.

Netherite
While Spectral was at a Jacob Owl's shop, he discovered that he could sell Netherite Ingots for 9 thousand coins per ingot, and that gave him an idea to somehow get these ingots. Spectral would leave the shop and would wander the wilderness and would come across a portal, curious, Spectral entered the portal, that teleported him to The Nether.

Spectral looked around confused, unsure how to process where he just ended up, he however could see gold in the walls. Spectral would mine the gold in the walls for long periods of time, building up some amount of wealth in Early Eldham. After mining for a while, he would encounter Ancient Debris, out of curiosity he mined several deposits, and would bring the resources from it home to his tower.

Spectral broke apart the debris and put them into the furnaces he had in his tower, after smelting for a while, the debris turned into Netherite Scraps. Spectral took the scraps out of the furnace, and tried to make a pickaxe with them, which failed, after a lot of trial and error, Spectral would figure out how to make Netherite by fusing the gold and the scraps together.

Spectral would end up returning to Jacob's shop and would sell much of what he had created. upon selling the ingots, Jacob would rush over in shock, and would raise the sell price. Spectral would end up selling much of his Netherite to various buyers, making millions of coins in the process.

Neihernspried
While sitting in his tower, Spectral drank some stew he found while travelling, it tasted odd but he thought nothing of it. Later after several hours he felt irritation and itching inside him, along with his temperature rising, he then started screaming in pain, and was forcefully brought to a containment facility ran by "The Resistance".

They locked him inside an obsidian box, Spectral's infection would eventually worsen with him starting to lose control of his limbs, and eventually a voice in his head started talking to him. It was the infection. Spectral's internal temperature then started rising rapidly, reaching dangerous levels. The Resistance tried to provide him with ice and water, but that did little to stop the overheating.

The Resistance ended up providing Spectral with cure, Spectral had to be restrained and forcefully fed the cure. After drinking the cure he was in a lot of pain, however the infection was dying and his internal temperature was dropping back to normal.

A member of the Resistance would tell him what he was infected with, it turns out it was Neihernspried, Spectral was one of the first cases of infection recorded. With his new found knowledge he would return home, now aware of this threat, and wanting to take revenge.

Necrotic Ritual
Spectral was in a library browsing books, and then the fell on to one of the bookshelves, and one of the books that was hidden fell out on to the floor. The book had an odd shape to it, it was dusty, and had strange symbols on it. Spectral picked up the book, and started flipping the pages, as Spectral started flipping the pages, he felt uneasy, and as if he had read something he had not supposed to.

Spectral felt a strange attachment to this book, despite him not understanding any of the strange symbols on the page, he would then take the book home, and would read it every time he had a chance. While reading through it, he could hear and feel the book speaking to him, with a soft calm voice, whispering forbidden secrets in his ear.

He kept reading the book, occasionally attempting to pronounce the symbols on the pages, while the voice was guiding him on the correct pronunciation. Spectral was then interested in putting this book to use, the voice guided him on building a ritual site, and after building a strange looking altar, he sat the book in the middle of the table and surrounded it with lit candles.

The voice told him is was ready, it guided Spectral to cut off one of his fingers, and to sit it on top of the book. Spectral with a knife cut off one of his fingers and sat it on top of the book. He then closed his eyes, whispering the symbols he remembered from the book. He suddenly felt strange in the stomach, and he smelt the stench of death in the air. Large flashes of light appeared around Spectral, meanwhile he kept calm and focused.

Behind Spectral, skeleton corpses came up from the around, one of them attempted to lay his hand on Spectral's shoulder. Spectral got up panicked, to see a skeleton behind him, however the voice from the book told him to stay calm, and Spectral felt calmer. He looked at the several skeletons confused, but amazed, the skeletons stood there standing, as his severed finger vanished in a puff of smoke.

Spectral turned and went to his house, taking the book with him. the undead followed him inside, Spectral was confused by this, but felt no fear, instead he felt a close attachment to them, as if they were his own brothers.



Necromancia
Spectral while inside thinking, felt the need to construct a paradise for his newly found undead, the book whispered to Spectral, and encouraged this. He decided on a location in the far north in the at the time nation of Mercury.

Spectral ventured to this area in the far north of Mercury, the area was covered by a thick jungle, surrounded by a river, and it also had a small mountain in it's centre. Spectral would quickly get to work, venturing to the top of the mountain with his undead, and chopping the twisted trees at the top of the mountain.

Spectral inserted some pillars into the ground, and constructed a fence, he then also constructed several tents in the land he now calls Necromancia.
