BatChatap

BatChatap is a citizen of Ahalia, and the owner of a small jam and XP buisness. A part time bandit, he currently resides in the small fishing town of Rochdale

 Early Life 

The player BatChatap first came to being on the early-mid days of the server, with rathnir coming out of its infancy. After a short stint as a Nomad in his earlier life, he ended up joining a fairly long standing country called Posavaria.

Trillium Wars
BatChatap lived in poverty for a long time, with little over a stack of iron to his name. He did, however, managed to secure a house in St. Gibersburg. He made good friends with the well known bartender MineRabbitt604 and radical political activist skysearcher5 (with whom he actually formed an autonomous region known as the S.A.R.P: Constitution of the Socialist Autonomous Region of Posavaria). for a while they all lived together and worked, trying to make a living. However, they were soon all drafted to fight in the First Coalition War against the Trillium Alliance, at the battle of Urnu-Arrak. They spent days putting together defences, with even a minefield being layed in front of the Coalition camp. Armed with nothing but iron armour, BatChatap, or Bat as he was more commonly known, and skysearcher5 were put in charge of a squad of soldiers, Most famous for leading a charge against the Trillium base before the battle had even begun.Once the battle officially commenced much bloody fighting ensued, with the coalition largely outmatched in gear and skill. When the Trillium soldiers finally overan the base, Bat rallied the troops one last time for a final and desperate stand. The cry of "CHARGE!" went up amoung the ranks, and the swords and sheilds clashed. The base was eventually overran and the surviving coalition soldiers retreated. Official numbered losses are to this days unknown. The whole event had made its mark on Bat, he wanted more. more fighting, more glory. More blood. and some he would soon get.

The Battle of Aezenfjord
Aezenfjord was a place near and dear to every Posovarians heart. It was a reminder to them of the old Valdreach Imperial Republic that had once ruled over them. It was a beautiful place too, one frozen in time. The country of Sørveien (later Bardonia) sort to capture Aezenfjord, and re start the VIR. To the usually peaceful and isolationist Posovaria, this was completely unnaceptable. For the first time and possibly the only time, a call to arms was announced. Posovarian citizens signed up to the military, with Bat being one of them. Known for his work at fortifying the Coalition base, him and skysearcher5 were deployed as combat enigneers to construct defences for the town. Then came the wait. Bat sat in his bow tower, eye steady, hand steadier, watching the choke points they had created to funnel the enemy through. finally, Sørveien soldiers began to pour through. Bat let go of his first arrow, striking an enemy soldier, but the more he shot, the more seemed to appear. A Sørveien juggernaught dressed in full Prot 4 netherite with golden apples held off most of the defending army until they were eventually overpowered. Bat himself was almost killed in this, nearly being beaten by a lone enemy soldier, but was luckily rescued by some of his men. Once the defenders pushed back the attackers out of the town, it was decided to search for their camp. Soldiers were selected to go and do scouting runs, and Bat happened to be one picked. He sat on top of the outer battlements, his sword in one hand, his near broken sheild in the other. All that stretched out beyond was plains of grass, the wind howling and sweeping across the land. It took a long time to find that camp, but eventually the base was found, and the Sørveien soldiers were stuck inside it, surrounded by the defenders. However, in a move still disputed to this day, they called in Bardonian support, and the message came to all defenders to retreat and leave Aezenfjord. Bat managed to make it safe home, but had lost all his gear when abandoning Aezenfjord. He was once again dirt poor with nothing to his name.

Life in Pos Valley
BatChatap was unemployed for the most part, and spent his time either working down the mines or constructing fortifications for the Pos Vally (the valley that both St Gibersburg and Posopolis were situated in. This managed to scrape some money for him, but barely enough to survive. Purchasing anything more expensive than a few hundered dollars was out of the question. He didnt care much for religion or politics, either, just getting by. He still managed to have fun with his fellow country men, attending many parties in the northern town Askalon and even lending himself out as a mecenary and combat engineer to Akratia, a country that would soon have a huge impact of Bat and Posovaria as a whole. Then the darker days began to roll in. Bandits became a large problem on the server, seemingly unbeatable even with the best gear and training .This didnt really affect the life of the Posovarians until the first Bandits moved into Pos Valley.

One sunny day, Bat was doing some work on his house, just repairing some of the beaming, nothing unusual. A well kitted, smart yet unfamiliar person suddenly approached him. The glint of their enchanted gear caught his eye, and he turned to face them. "And who may you be?", he asked, hoping to get on with his rennovations without interuption. "Roezpoez" replied the stranger. An eerie air of quite was very noticable, and unnerved Bat slightly. "And....what brings you here?" a slight break in his voice betrayed the suspicions he was gathering. "I'm but a simple trader, I travel around selling weaponry and armour." this reply put Bat at ease slightly, as it seemed legitimate enough. "Well i hate to say but we aren't looking for any at the moment, i appreciate the offer though." This once more decended into silence, before Roezpoez walked on and Bat, spooked by the encounter, decided to go inside and do his fixings at a later date. Not 2 minutes had passed by when Bat heard a cry for help. Another inhabitant NaturalKind, had been attacked by Roezpoez. Bat rushed out but the damage had been done, Natural had been killed and Roezpoez, along with a nother friend of theirs that had appeared out of nowhere, began demanding gold from Bat whilst burning naturals armour. Askalonian soldiers were called in and managed to chase out the Bandits, back to their base, but whilst this was the first attack of theirs it wasnt the last.

The bandits would attack every day, forcing citizens inside and massively impacting freedom of citizens. An intelligence group was set up and found their base, called Troy, and despite fighting back, the Posovarians couldnt match their armour and general equipment. These bandits were also known to use dark magic which lead to them being absorbed by the earth itself, never for them to be seen again. The anti climactic ending and the events were all dubbed the Troyan Raids of Posavaria, a chapter of history that pushed many, including Bat, to become anti-bandit.

The Akratian Revelations
After the raids and the fairly mundane life in the Valley, Bat decided to start his own xp buisness. It steadily grew, until it was earning him $20,000 a day at one point. as his wealth grew, so did his oppertunities. Whilst he was still fairly poor, he applied to become a voulonteer of the Akratian military, who were currently on their massive expansion. Bat trained day and night, in the beating Sparrenedge sun and in the pouring Askalonian rain.
