Lore/Life
The exact date of Dusk's birth is unknown, but he is known to be 108 years old. He is the son of Nyfera Synderys and the god of war Vhagar. As a young boy, he travelled around the world of Rathnir exploring the lands he was born in. After a while he returned to the city of his mother's birth, Kush. Dusk Synderys, along with King Unburnt Blackfyre the I, Beastfrog Nymeros and Strivers (later GLO_, then Mezalf), escaped from Kush after a wave of banditry hit the nation. Dusk had previously had a Dragon dream that he would help found one of the greatest nations in the world. As the most powerful mage in the nation, using powerful magic, he forged the sword Dark Sister from the dark metal mined in the depths of hell. Dark Sister could cut through any foe, and he wielded it with such power that he was for a time believed to be the strongest swordsman in the nation. One day, when sleeping, he was almost killed by the alcoholic Milo Glin, and lost the sword. He then forged the blade Shady Female Sibling, but it was a pale copy of the former. He crafted himself a set of crystal armour, and made a new sword: Æssahætr. He was now more radiant than ever, and he showed great pride for it. The gods, either in fear or in punishment, it is unknown, wiped then all of Dusk Synderys's possessions from him, destroying the blade. Many others followed, but none were as great as Dark Sister or the Æssahætr. Lord Synderys also raised the Tower of Shadow, the tallest building in Daelyria, situated in Illerya. He has also founded the city of Duskopion, the biggest city in the Daelyria. During the Halondian rebellion, his adopted son, Miksa Silverhand betrayed him by crowning himself the Emperor of the Halondian empire. This led him into a deep depression where he became bitter and rageful. His famed skill with diplomacy decreased markedly, as his patience shortened. After the rebellion had been resolved, the High Kingdom of Arcovel was founded (originally) as a union between the Arch Duchy of Aestyria and the Kingdom of Daelyria. Dusk Synderys stood at the helm of this Helmian merger, spending long days and nights in his castle in Duskopion and the Tower of shadow in Illerya drawing up maps and discussing terms. In the end, Zamotz pulled out of the merger. It was also around this time that he divorced his first husband Leonidas Greenstir. The Kingdom of Arcovel collapsed soon after its creation, with the secession of Kastollia, Halond and Attaraxia. After the national divorce, the raider Nero the breaker of bones came and kill the Rhys Aethu and friend of Dusk, Thrain. Dusk and Archon Tonic Mahale hunted him down, but due to Dusk's wounds from earlier in the day, old age, and inferior skill and weapons, was seriously injured as he chased down Nero to the mountain city of Meteora. The Kingdoms of Varandoy and Aestyria reunited soon after into the Varandoy-Aestyrian Kingdom (VAK). They then conquered Alamayn, and as Praetor of the Second Legion, Dusk was very involved in this business. The conquest of Alamayn also reunited him with his beloved nephew Alev Synderys, the Lord of the Silver Citadel. It was around this time when the old King Unburnt Blackfyre the first would die. This saddened Dusk greatly, as, along with Lord Nymeros, Unburnt had been Dusk's oldest and closest friend and confidant. He wrote in a letter "I feel as if the part of me that ruled the first Kingdom has died with him, and now a hole has opened within me.". His loss was only greatened as his cousin Augustino Synderys would go into a coma induced by heavy drinking after the disappearance of his husband, Hibko Sin Synderys, as well as the loss of Shade Kaerfels, the son of his close friend Spoken Kaerfels. With the abdication of Jayhawk Blackfyre and his heir, Murad Blackfyre, Dusk aquired the Mithran throne. His reign, however, was very short. He resigned after four days due to several coups and an independence movements.
