Wardaddy

Wardaddy
Wardaddy, whose real name is Äscher "Wardaddy" Luon God-Fjell, is the current King of Majulah, alongside King Micc of Majulah.

The nickname "Wardaddy" supposedly comes from Äscher's love for warfare, often finding himself partaking in duels and serving as a commander in several wars.

Other nicknames given to Wardaddy would be "The Lion of the North", in regards to his victory over Aureus during the battle for CoAC, and the combined influence he carried in warfare and politics in the North East of Eldham.

Birth Origins
Wardaddy's birthplace is unknown, but what is known about his origins is that his father Wolfgang God-Fjell, a royal member of the House of God-Fjell in the Kingdom of Irulan, had an encounter with a woman during an expedition across Eldham. Not much is known about Wardaddy's birth mother, some speculate how much of an impact she had on Wardaddy as he grew up but some sources indicate that she could have been a family member of the Royal Ellysian house of Ellas.

Childhood
According to some sources and Wardaddy himself, he was a very active child. He could never sit in one place and would always find something to do and was according to some sources, very gregarious. Growing up, he got more and more intrigued in the art of combat and strategy and often dueled against his friends with wooden sticks and played many strategy games. He also led a small raid on an apple orchard with his friends and got into trouble a few times.

Foundation of the three explorers
Growing up, though Wardaddy had a lot of friends, he was close with only 2 of them, ItzKaipple and Micc. The three friends often spent a lot of time together, discussing about the possibilities of life outside of the little town they were living in. All three were very ambitious individuals and wanted to leave their town in search of something more. Wardaddy knew the identify of his birth father and wanted to find out more about him and ItzKaipple and Micc wanted to establish a merchant company in hopes of great riches and a lavish style of living.

It was there that they decided to travel to Eldham. They had boarded a ship which was set to travel to Nathria, which at the time was a colony of the nation of Grandia, at the time being led by Archduke Relmont, and were hoping to establish a trading post and live out their lives as simple merchants who would one day return to their little town and spread the wealth among the people. Soon after their arrival, the three explorers had spoken to Archduke Relmont and after some discussion, Relmont had granted them citizenship and ownership of the abandoned town of Higatoshi, with hopes of transforming it into a massive town and trading center. The three friends immediately got to work, with Micc becoming the Mayor of Higatoshi, now known as Majulah, with ItzKaipple and Wardaddy becoming co-leaders alongside him.

Exploring Eldham
With Mayor Micc now spearheading the revival of Higatoshi, Wardaddy found himself in a good position to set out and explore Eldham and bring back information for Micc so they can appropriately adjust to the environment and better understand the geopolitics of the area they were in. It was during these expeditions in which he wanted to find his way to the Kingdom of Irulan to find and meet his birth father, Wolfgang.

Notable encounters - Sandy
It was during his expeditions in Rodinnbrok where Wardaddy had met Sandy, who at the time was the High Jarl of Rodinnbrok. Sandy had told Wardaddy about the whereabouts of a great katana, and Wardaddy the ever loving combat enthusiast was ecstatic over the idea of a legendary sword that was waiting for someone to claim it. They agreed to meet at [Redacted] to exchange the location of the katana, for a price.

Ambushed by Bandits - Tylics
While waiting at a location to meet with Sandy at [Redacted], Wardaddy was ambushed by notorious bandit Tylics and had lost the fight. His riches and possessions all stolen. Wardaddy had sworn to get revenge over the ambush and over losing his precious lost possessions. After hearing about the news of the ambush, Sandy had given the location of the katana to Wardaddy for free and informed him about the locations that Tylics was known to frequently visit.

After some debate with his close friends, Wardaddy, Micc and ItzKaipple began hunting Tylics and planned to set up an ambush, frequenting the locations he was known to hang around the most. Then, on one fateful night, Tylics finally showed up at the location and the trap had been set. Wardaddy and his friends ambushed him and won, taking their revenge by getting his possessions back from the bandit and stealing whatever else the bandit had on him.

Wardaddy was particularly taken aback by the amount of riches Tylics was carrying on him and some say that the astonishment of loot is what drove Wardaddy to become a bandit in the first place, though some sources don't confirm this theory.

Notable Encounters - Umbra Empire
It was during their hunt of Tylics that the warlords of the Umbra Empire, which has now been dissolved, noticed the combat ability of Wardaddy. They immediately got into contact with each other and together went ahead to form a Bandit hunting group which lasted for about a month before it got dissolved for unknown reasons. The group was semi-successful, scoring a great number of kills on bandits and bringing in a fair amount of riches, but dissolved after the Warlords of the Umbra Empire simply disappeared without a trace.

Journey to Irulan - Dvusi, Cornelius and Lurch.
One of Wardaddy's goals was to meet his birth father Wolfgang, unbeknownst to him, Wolfgang, though being a member of the Royal House of God-Fjell based in Irulan, was actually leading the nation of Merkonis. Realizing this, Wardaddy set his next destination to Merkonis. However, he took to the time to meet the King at the time, Dvusi, who was Wardaddy's grandfather. It was also during this expedition where Wardaddy had also met with his uncle Cornelius, and Lurch, one of his great friends.

Journey to Merkonis - Wolfgang, ErrorL.
After finally hearing about the whereabouts of his father, Wardaddy set sail and finally arrived at the nation of Merkonis. It was there where he met his father Wolfgang, their reunion was thorough and not a lot of emotions were displayed from either party, they were happy to have finally met each other and Wolfgang was somewhat excited and proud to see how Wardaddy had turned out. Wanting to have his son around him, Wolfgang made Wardaddy the General of the army in Merkonis and Wardaddy had gladly accepted this position. It was also during this trip where Wardaddy had met and befriended ErrorL who at the time was also a General of the army in Merkonis and a well-known mercenary.

''It was during one of their discussions that Wolfgang had revealed to Wardaddy how he met his mother and was unaware of the pregnancy. However, he had no doubt in his mind that Wardaddy was his due to the similarities they both had, both genetically and personality wise.''

About the Katana
Kogarasu-Maru (小烏丸), was a cursed blade forged by the Legendary Weaping Blacksmith, in the serene mountains of Rohkia, Rodinnbrok. This blade brings the user great strength and power, but also curses them to a life of tragedy, spited by the gods for tasting their power.

Discovery
Wardaddy had discovered the blade in the mountain of Rohkia, Rodinnbrok after tracking it down upon hearing about the story of the Weaping Blacksmith by sanduhm, a trader that Wardaddy had met during one of his expeditions. Wardaddy had found the sword, next to the remains of a decaying corpse, thought be that of the Weaping Blacksmith himself. He took the blade back to Lathien, a famous blacksmith who Wardaddy had previously consulted to about the sword before tracking it down, where it was restored to its prime condition. Lathien permitted Wardaddy to keep the sword and subsequently it was stored at the keep in Majulah.

The Curse and its Corruption
Unknowingly, the curse of the Oni's scourge had already latched itself to Wardaddy, slowly corrupting him from innocence to treachery. Wardaddy had found himself drawn to the sword more and more everyday, and eventually decided to make use of it in combat and future conflicts. Unknowing to him, the corruption from the curse grew stronger every time Wardaddy had been utilizing with Kogarasu-Maru (小烏丸). This eventually led to him becoming fully corrupted, changing his desire to protect the innocent and instead to antagonize them.
