Overseer

Pre-Rathnir
Sheltered in a lab deep underground to avoid the war, Doctor Rug worked on his fourth experiment on the creation of life using thaumaturgic magic.

The first machine he had made of clay was of small stature and broke apart easily, but with its creation he could ascertain his capabilities as a thaumaturge. The second machine was of wood, which allowed it to work the greenhouse and spare the doctor the manual labor. The third machine was made of iron and served as a guardian for the lab, able to repel intruders with its metal fists.

The fourth one would be special, this would be made entirely of thaumium, and given sentience in order to operate the heavy machinery of the lab, to oversee the processes of the factory line, to be able to decide on its own the fuel production and distribution of the generators. Thus, it was named: Overseer.

Aurlûnor Velande
The Overseer woke up covered in dust, something had gone wrong, the lab had fallen into disrepair and many parts of it were dark, collapsed, and unable to sustain life. The power was out, the compression dynamos had ran out of coolant, the fractioning still was out of resin, everything was out of order.

Overseer determined that the best course of action it could take was to head to the surface and assess the damage to the above ground solar panels, but as it finally saw its first glimpse of the sun, it was shocked. There seemed to be a city with people near the entrance of the lab. It approached the city and saw that elves, not humans, made up the majority of the townsfolk. Overseer had asked to join the city, Quácomar, but was denied.

Determining that the war had ended, Overseer returned to the lab and salvaged whatever supplies it could; a book from his creator Doctor Rug, some wheat that had not rotted, iron tools, before deciding to explore the world.

Free States of Tortuga
Overseer ventured far and wide in the world of Rathnir, from Huitca to Kush, before it met a pirate ship during one of its ocean trips. The pirates took an interest to Overseer, seeing a being of pure metal, and a had captain, Lukas Lordinger, invite Overseer into his city.

With that, Overseer was assigned to Loria City to assist in its development as a Builder and Scribe. It contributed to and currently oversees the construction and security of the Great Fort of Nazarick.

After years of service under Lukas, Overseer was promoted to the secondary governor of Loria City.

Lorian Independence
After Tortuga's leader, TheSexyCanadian, passed on his position, many of the states in the Pirate Confederation of Tortuga gained independence. Overseer stayed with Lukas in Loria City, now the Archduchy of Loria, and together with the council, established a government which was independent.

Fall of Loria
Alas, the tale of Overseer ends with a somber tone, as for reasons in politics Borhammar had deemed Loria a part of it. This led to a coalition of many nations to crush Loria and conquer it. Everyone could see the end of an era, and everybody was prepared. Overseer made modifications to the fort, including adding traps and additional barricades, in order to help in the defense of Loria.

Since Overseer's combat ability isn't the best, he utilized his strategic thinking to assist with the movement of valuables to neighboring, allied states or to places in the wilderness. He also drafted out his first book ever since leaving his home, Horizon of Blue.

Overseer was last seen traveling east of Loria City, moving a shipment of cargo further away from the continent of Sparwood. However, he could not transport all of the materials away before war reached the doorsteps of Loria.

Maybe search around the wilderness close to Loria, who knows what goodies you could find?

Akratia
East of Loria was Akratia, under the guidance of MW_Neoz, undergoing an industrial revolution. When Overseer met the Akratians, they offered him a safe haven to live, in which Overseer gladly accepted.

Now settled in Akratia, Overseer found a job as a propagandist, producing works of propaganda in both poster form and video form.

However, Overseer's life in Akratia would be short as not soon after he found peace, war came knocking in the form the Tortuga, led by Ulifer. Under pretenses of liberation, Ulifer called upon his allies to crush Akratia, claiming the land as his and expanding the fractured Tortugan empire.

Borhammar
Days of wandering the wilderness gave Overseer many wounds and damage. Run-ins with bandits and pirates and constant walking wore down armor and blade. Overseer again had no home, no purpose, and nothing to his name.

But by a miracle, one of his contacts from the negotiations after the Loria-Borhammar War reached out to him; Davidovich34. David, impressed by Overseer's work in the Fort of Nazarick, offered him a position to oversee the fort, if he were to join Borhammar and New Loria City. Although unsure, Overseer did accept the deal.

However, Overseer did not build.

During his time out in the wilderness, he found time between the battle against nature and bandits to think, to contemplate, and reached a few conclusions. "Why should you build if 50 dudes with full netherite armor will just come and murder you?"

Instead, during Overseer's stay in Borhammar, he mostly dabbled in propaganda production and newspaper writing. Although Borhammar was a nation well-known for their banditry, there were still like-minded individuals in which Overseer could befriend.

New Loria City benefited greatly from Overseer's contributions in propaganda and newspaper.

However, during a leadership change in which Davidovich34 stepped down as the town leader, Overseer was assigned a less important position. This continued on as propaganda and newspapers were less and less needed during times of peace. (Or people just didn't ask him. Seriously man, nobody asked him to make propaganda and newspapers anymore, I dunno why)

Borhammar Purge
One day, Ulifer woke up.

And he said: "Ahoy mateys!" and drafted a long essay about purging spies.

Since Overseer had previous relations with Akratia, he was stripped of his roles and titles by Borhammar, in compliance with their ally Tortuga's demand. However, what had upset Overseer was not the removal of his achievements, nor his house arrest, nor was it the vandalization of his beloved fort; it was that Ulifer had not put his name into the Kill On Sight list. Believing that Ulifer had underestimated his importance, achievements, and value, Overseer deemed to form a new directive: annoy Ulifer as much as possible.

Thus, on June 6, 2022, Overseer hands his Two Weeks Notice to Furyachelfg, the then leader of Borhammar, and recontacted Lukas Lordinger, who had went through some revival stuff that will not be written here because this is not a wiki page about him.

Machine Epiphany
Throughout his travels, Overseer founded the Cult of Machina.
