Aylos Colyster

Aylos Colyster is a mercenary formerly from the village of Frigid just south of Rathnir before being taken in by a group of bandits he now lives in the town of Pintrin. He had to leave his home when his blackouts got worse and he saw a suspicious ship he did not recognise along with a feeling of dread that engulfs him until recently he fled to Rathnir when he got there he arrived in the continent of Haven and ventured to the city of Fornost he decided to start living there after his journey came to an end he then joined the Order of Aurora after realising just how boring being a regular citizen would be compared his last few years he then had to leave after they learned of his upbringing.

He is noted as having pale skin with piercing green eyes and shaggy black hair. He stands rather short at 5"5 or 165.10 cm with a rather frail looking body shape which he often times used to trick people into thinking he was weak it worked a lot of the time and a scar that goes up his back from when he was branded.

Early years
As a child he grew up in the village of Frigid along with his parents he trained hard in the art combat since he was a small child he knew how important it was to learn he would also experience blackouts in which he would become extremely paranoid to the point of hiding from any he would think could hurt him this would be extremely helpful when during one of his blackouts at aged 12 he was hiding up in a ditch near his village when bandits attacked he did not know that until he "woke up" on the ship of these bandits he had somehow wondered onto before everything slipped once again to darkness he awoke to find himself next to a dead body he knew he had done it but how this man was twice his size maybe he was a better fighter than he thought he did usually beat people in combat even as young as 9 he would put up quite the challenge for even the best fighters in Frigid. It didn't take long before the crew of the ship found him but instead of killing him they realised his value and instead recruited him to which he thought was better than dying so he accepted.

Teenage years
As a teen Aylos would become very busy managing all of his contracts after joining the group he had a real feeling of belonging somewhere he had a new home one that could appreciate his work and dedication and get paid on the side. As much as he hated them at first he grew to really enjoy their company as much as they did his but there was always someone a overwhelming feeling of dread that's always just too far away to reach. One day Aylos was told he was to be branded and to be prepared for it so he knew it was coming he just didn't know how much "branding" the would do they cut a large line up his back deep enough to leave a mark but not deep enough to leave permanent damage he was pretty angry at the people who didn't tell him it would be like that.

Adult Years
When he reached adulthood they held a celebration as they did with any who would turn that age the celebration mainly involved drinking ale and other things like that many duels happened most which Aylos had won by this point he become over confident in his abilities when It came to combat maybe to a fault whenever he lost he would sometimes get very angry most likely due to how they had brought him up since he was there the day after something he had been fearing happened that feeling of dread that was always just out of reach was now engulfing him he knew something was going to go down and that's when he saw it a ship sailing over the horizon he had the opportunity to tell someone but he didn't he just ran as far away as he could at some point he peered into a river to see his eyes had changed colour to a soft pink it was strange but the least of his worries.

Journey to Rathnir
He knew only of one place he could go a few miles north in Rathnir so off he began his journey sticking to the roads as best he could usually skipping towns. A few miles later he came across a small port town where he could see a massive ship full of folk just about to leave but before they did he asked the captain if they were going near Rathnir and if he could join the crew temporarily until they passed nearby to which he agreed and Aylos paid him a bit of money Aylos was a member of that crew for nearly three months before they passed by Rathnir his journey on that ship was over and now he was onto his hopeful new life. Most of the time all he could think of was his friends back in the group that he just let die like a shadow that followed him around whenever he looked at this shadow he would cry for hours on end about how he could have saved them.

Arrival in Fornost
When he arrived in Haven the first thing he did was look around to see the scenery he had only ever heard of before making his way to the north west of Uldarash and arriving in a small fishing town named Northport he looked around before walking over to the ocean and just looking out towards the horizon for a few minutes then following a path south towards the City named Fornost the capital of the Kingdom of Aurora which resides in the Second Empire of Uldarash which in turn resides in Haven the south-eastern most point in Rathnir. When he walked down the path towards Fornost he was unsure of where he would turn up but this was more than where he had imagined the path would take him he loved every second exploring the city taking in all it had to offer he knew this was the place he wanted to live so he did he sent in an application to become a citizen. After he got accepted he was given a tour along with one other person then given the choice of what district to live in he chose Westlock and lived there until moving to Pintrin a few weeks later.

Joining The Order Of The Aurora
One day while walking the streets of Fornost Aylos overheard a few people talking about The Order of Aurora he had never heard of this before he had seen people patrolling just didn't know what they were apart of so he asked someone else he found wondering the streets they told him that it was a holy order dedicated to protecting those who can't defend themselves. He thought to himself a lot that day about joining the order and how he used to protect people he thought that maybe he could put his skills to good use not for making money but instead actually helping people. A few days of thinking later he decided to send in an application to join the order and then the next day he found out he was accepted and so he went to training when it came.

Becoming A Warden of The Order
One day he woke up to find out he had been chosen to be promoted to a warden and that he would now be trained and reviewed for that standard and that he would be demoted if he proved to not be ready for the promotion or any other reason he had already been told when he joined the order as a trainee.

Embracing The Shadow That Follows Him
One day he awoke to a letter on his front door that told him that he was being removed from the Order due to his not so pretty past they told him that he had shown himself to be trustworthy enough to stay as a citizen of Aurora he would just not be allowed to do any order related business. Just when Aylos thought he had outran his past it caught up to him he knew that this was more than what he had deserved but now once again he remembered his past but this time he embraced his past like a shadow became the caster and no longer did he feel of dread but now it was replaced with something else something he had not felt before but nonetheless he enjoyed it his eyes turned green again something he had not seen since he left his old group a reminder of the friends he had probably let die but he didn't cry instead he laughed he laughed at the people that could have killed him all those years ago but instead showed mercy and how he had let them be slaughtered. This shadow of his own creation that been following him for all those years was gone replaced only by a single thought that of weakness he knew he couldn't be at peace forever all those hours he had convinced himself that that part of his life was over for nothing and now was his time getting back into his old ways the ways he swore never to take up again.

The Arrival
Aylos knew that he could not stay in Fornost forever instead choosing to live elsewhere which is when he met up with someone he knew a man he had spoken to only a few times before he spoke of a land where he would be free to whatever he pleased at first he thought it was too good to be true but he showed Aylos the place he was talking about, Pintrin. Aylos learned all he could about the place to which he was pretty surprised it was actually nice town he had heard the name thrown around before but not once did he think to visit but this time was different he could see the potential in living there and once again he felt like he could have a home.
