Teggers of Athos

Early life
Formed out of the depths of darkness, a new being arose. From the decrepit souls of the Valley, in the soulful blue haze, life formed. This creature crawled forth upon two legs, but it was severely deformed. He had features like a Hoglin, with large, brutish tusks, and his eyes were empty, with only blue smoke to fill them. His body was emaciated, exhausted of any sign of happiness or love. He was made King of the Valley, for a time. Then, they came. Raiders from the nether. They came in gear never before forged. First they came for the pig creatures, and now, they came to the valley of souls. After they exhausted his best men, leaving their ribs in the sand of souls, he fled.

Like a dark wind, he swiftly scampered from land to land, seeing any hope of repair of the world. The Ice had thawed, and new blue fungi had begun sprouting from the floor. He saw the old castles the pig creatures built, of proud blocks of blackstone, basalt, and a hard material not known by any other creature.

He searched all over for life willing to rebel against the colonisers. The oppressors of the land. Finally, he entered the portal the oppressors entered through, after breaking and hunting down many of the men sent to exploit resources.

Arrival in Rathnir
When he was sent to the overworld, his body began to ache. He stepped into a land filled with sunlight, so he ran. He ran into the forest, where the monsters hid. They hid from the light. And like those monsters, he fought only at night, and hunted only at night. Any stray animal or human that went astray in Rathnir was held in his clutches, and his clutches only. For a while, he subsisted on berries, and human flesh. He lived in a dripstone cave, constantly struggling. His body was changing to adapt to the environment. His emaciation faded, as he grew more muscular. His flesh turned grey, from lack of any sort of light, and he grew a night vision that no other of Rathnir had seen.

When he emerged to hunt, he was blinded. A group of men of the Bardonian encampment had caught him.Their torches blinded him, and their weapons clasped his gnarled hands together. They dragged his body across Rathnir to Dorrastarock, where they whipped, beat, and sent him away, wounded. The beast, Teggers, ran. Fled from society.

The first society that accepted him was the nation of Galadonn. Cassius Ponteius had seen potential in this creature as a pet. He was disobedient, insisting on acting human, and was beaten, once more, and exiled. The next nation he went, he swam to.

The Cactus Gang accepted him, but forced him to build roads, and kicked him out onto the street. He then swam away.

Home in Athos
Finally, he swam to a secluded area, and found friendship in a group of Cows and Pigs. These animals taught him how to act. How to act not as a being of hell, but of a being of life, and of this world. The malnourished Teggers thanked the animals, and went on his way. Befriending a donkey named Jack, he carried it to a town called Athos. Athos became his sanctuary, where he was loved. Tofu Caladarian, the Grand Thane of Dande, took him in, and sheltered him. He allowed him to build, and expand. He helped him understand Rathnir, and how to be human. In Athos, he opened a restaurant that serves Athonian cuisine and began to establish a military program with Tofu. He also began to write Music for Chid.

Exile From Athos

Soon, The Elder King, Tofu, exiled Teggers, after he was caught sniffing feces in the Imperial Stables. Tofu Caladarian was utterly degusting, and he saw the monster that stood before him, a tall, grey, tusked beast, and exiled him. He whipped him out of the streets and gave him his belongings. Tofu's swift hand forced the Young Soul Hog to move. His back, marred with whip marks, shambled away in shame. He crawled into a quarry in Orpi, and began carving out an underground cave for him to live in. His restraunt was taken away, his Towers, destroyed, and he had little to his name. He only had the small marketplace he built in Orpi, where he now currently resides.
