Boru'Bureakaz

Borubureika or Boru'Bureakaz was the Akir of Akirashalam, a city in Eldham until he died of a cocaine overdose.

Early life
Boru was born in Sparwood, Rathnir to a Niedene Arkhai family. He lived with his parents for his first years and traveled the continent. At the age of 13, in the continent of Nieden, Boru's family unexpectedly ran into a criminal gang they owed money to again. Because of his parents couldn't pay, the bandits gave no choice but them getting killed. Boru's father told him to run while he could which he did. While he ran he heard the screams of his mother as he feared to look back. Scarred by the event he carried on continuing traveling as a nomad until he reached the big Athaz Sea at the age of 15. There he wandered from coastal city to coastal city looking for opportunities for travelling the sea, escaping his homeland of Rathnir and the memories of his parents.

He boarded a ship to work as a Janitor. On his first trip the ship encountered a violent storm. The storm made the ship sink but Boru survived on a piece of wood. When he woke up after the storm he discovered that he was no longer at sea but on a river flowing through the dessert.

Irilani
When he woke up again he discovered that he was no longer at sea but in a bed taken care of by people of Irîana, approximately translating to "persons of the desert", descendants of Irilani. He saw through his blurry vision that he had bandages all over his body. They told him they saw him floating down the desert river with great burns on his skin, therefore they took him in to treat him. He was in bed for a couple of weeks until his burns faded to scars. When he finally got the chance to get out of bed, he helped them with their daily tasks in the village he had ended up in, on the same time as he learned of their culture. At first they spoke to him in Traveler's Tongue but after a while he learned to speak their language Tasqarince that evolved from the older language of Irilani. He got to know that the villagers ancestors had left the city of Ngibamma and settling here becoming isolated from the rest of Irilani therefore the language of Tasqarince had evolved. As time went on Boru got a bigger understanding of where he was. He had succeeded fleeing Rathnir as he no longer was in that world but in the world of Nungem' izhedam, approximately translating to "peaceful land", as the Irîana called the world of Eldham.

Getting his name
One day Boru wandered down in one of the yet unexplored caves where the Irelana believed that there where a creature. As he hadn't heard the story in his childhood he had no idea of this. Every seven meters he walked he placed a torch until he reached the bottom. As he discovered that there were nothing of interest down there he went up again. When he came up to the entrance he discovered that it was no longer alone as it was before. A crowd of the villagers worried that he had gone down there to not return had gathered and when Boru once again came up their faces went from worried to filled with joy. They shouted "Boru'Bureakaz, Boru'Bureakaz!" as they thought that he had bravely gone down in the cave and slain the beast. Boru stood there confused as he knew nothing about a beast therefore he told them that the cave was empty. The villagers where dumbfounded all their lives they had been told not to go down there just for it to be empty. After that event he had a name he was called again. As Boru had forgotten his old name after the incident with the ship he took on his new name Boru'Bureakaz that he is now known as, which is Tasqarince for "Brave miner".

Journey
When Boru turned 17 he decided that it was time for him to leave and pursue greatness on his own. He wandered the desert for many days once again planning to build a great city beside the river.

A while in to his journey, a sandstorm drove over him. The winds brought so much sand that he had to seek shelter. The storm continued and Boru's supplies ran shorter by the day since he couldn't leave and get more. On the fifteenth day of the storm he had lost almost all hope, but just as he was going to give in to the sandstorm he saw a figure through the sand.

The figure came closer and its appearance became more clear. It had the appearance of a man and had yellow spongey skin and big blue eyes. It walked up to Boru and sat down beside him. Boru got back some hope. "Maybe the person had some water stored up in his sponge of a skin" He thought, Boru then grabbed the sponge man and squeezed all of the water out of his sponge body into a bucket. Confused the sponge said: "Why would you do that?" "I need to drink, I have been without water many days." Boru said as he drank the water to clench his thirst. "I see. I haven't been on land for long so I need to get a better understanding of the land dwelling creatures". He said. "Why did you leave the water?" Boru curiously asked. "I was bored and left but I have no Idea what to do now." He responded. " Why don't you become my companion then? What's your name?" Boru said. "Well I don't really have a name, but I guess I could join you. Vincent. That name sounds nice." They waited for the storm to end and then Boru and Vincent went to the place Boru first arrived at to found the city.

As time went on and the city progressed, Boru remembered fragments of his memories of the past in Rathnir.

The Skjoldbrodir war
After the integration of Akirashalm into Aristios, Boru along with Vincent were tasked to lead the Tasqar military forces as Generals to fight along the Aristii legion. Some time in the future, winds of omen would summon a four week sandstorm that would make it impossible for traveling merchants to continue Akirashalam's trade. Prophets of the city would fortell the clause of this ravaging storm to be conflict brewing in the cold and mountainous west across the sea. Tasked to find out more about this, Boru traveled far to the Capital of Aristios, Oleapolis where he consulted with the current Emperor Otto Olea. He found out that there was soon going to break out war between the Viking Nation of Skjoldbrodir and Aristios and their allies. Otto ordered Boru to immediatly travel back home to mobilize the Tasqar Troops for war. Boru rode back on his stallion he came with as fast as possible and equipped his army with schimitars and bows. Then the Akirashalam gates opened and the steps of the the hooves of the cavalry heading west aswell as the chants of the soldiers could be heard all across the Tasqar region. Even the howling winds couldn't stop the advance of the Akira and their folk.

Soon Boru, Vincent and their men stood assembled along with the forces of the Triple Entente in front of the Viking's last Bastion, Hefnaheim, having fought their way through their homeland. While the forces of Aristios and it's allies were strong, the Vikings still stood a chance having summoned the support of the Simulami Empire aswell as Vulpinia. The people of Aristios were not deterred though and after fighting valiantly beside their comrades of Zamotz, the AWE and the Goons and they eventually succeded in defeating the Vikings on their home turf. After the war was finished, the soldiers returned home to glorious celebrations aswell as honorary ceremonies for the brave participants. Soon after Akira could once again return to their beloved town where the sandstorm finally had subsided.

The Death of the First Akir
Some time after the dissolution of the Empire of Aristios, a now middle-age Boru was invited to participate in a Gladiatorial Competition in the City of Lakial. At this time Boru was in a quite bad place in life and was serially abusing substances of recreation and because of that his celebration during the event were to say the least, rowdy. In the midst of intoxication, Boru was offered a powder promising great highs. In the lack of judgement he accepted and promised he could withstand a much larger amount than the seller recommended as he felt immortal. However this would be the greatest mistake he ever made. As he consumed the powder I first felt a burning sensation through his body like quite no other but soon he would also feel his heart struggling to beat. He collapsed to the ground and in his last breaths his heart could produce, he promised his son Globblet'Akirebureakaz to carry on his title of Akir and with that he passed away long from being old age. The first Akir's reign had been cut short.

Soon the Akir's royal guards arrived to the scene after being noticed of the tradgedy. They recovered the body and brought it back to Akirashalam where a grand memorial was organized for Boru aswell as the coronation of his son after which he was burried in the tombs deep beneath Akirashalam to lay in a supposed eternity. "À tout le monde, à tous mes amis: Je vous aime, je dois partir."

The Rejuvination
Boru awoke to find himself in a cold, dark place. His eyes struggled to adjust to the darkness, and his limbs felt heavy and stiff. He tried to remember how he got here, but his mind was foggy and his memories were hazy. As he put his hands in front of him, he felt some kind of trapdoor made of degraded wood stopping him from stretching his arms out entirely. He pushed with all his power and they swing open producing a loud echo that consumed the surroundings. He arose and tried to make his way through the darkness, eventually feeling his way along some cold stone walls. As he walked, he felt the thick and musty air. He could hear the sound of dripping water echoing through the chamber. As he explored his surroundings, he begun to realize that he is in a tomb of some sort. The realization striked him with a feeling of confusion and disorientation. How did he come to be buried in this place? As he makes his way through the catacombs, memories begun to flood back to him. He remembered his life as the Akir, the king of Akirashalam. He remembered the city that he had built, and the people that he had ruled over. And then, the memory of his death came to him. He had died and been buried in these tombs. The realization that he had been revived hits him with a mix of emotions - happiness, confusion, and a sense of new purpose. He was determined to find out why he has been brought back and what his purpose was now. Finally, he emerged from the tombs and into the sunlight. The warmth of the sun hit his skin, and he felt alive once again. The heat was intense, but it was a welcome feeling that he hadn’t felt in many years.

The character of Boru
While Boru was alive he was often described as a compassionate leader who loved his people. He was also quite fond of spirits so you wouldn't be suprised finding him rummaging the streets of Akirashalam quite drunk. The time not spent on orgazisment of Akirashalam would often be spent on brewing beverages. He was the one who came up with the recipe for the fairly popular Akirashalam Tequila. However later in life this love though would lead to rampant alchoholism. That could have been to suppress the pain caused by the sudden the throwbacks in time to his forgotten past in Rathnir that became more prominent later in his life. After his death his conciousness would be remained in spirit form to watch over his town he left to suddenly. His son Globblet'Akirebureakaz was the one that claimed the most prominently to have seen him. Other citizens of Akirashalam have claimed to see him wander the streets in the dark of night. While Boru has been gone for a long while, something supernatural has occured in recent time. It seems like the Old Akir has returned to the living. The cause of this is still unknown even by Boru himself but he claims to have a purpose for being alive that he will need fulfill.
