Meushar

Meushar, div Kaliss is a 47 year old Knight of the The Order of the Aurora, as well as a local writer and brewer in his spare time. Though he served for a long time in the Order and Uldarashi military and he was promoted to Knight following the Uldarash Civil War, yet he remains one of the Order's most ardent and vocal critics.

Before Aurora
In his own words, Meushar wasted the first 30 years of his life. Not much is known about his time before he arrived at the gates of Fornost, but it is known that he seems to have learned swordsmanship and brewing as his main trades for the first part of his life. Neither occupation seemed to have earned him much success, however, as at the age of 35, Meushar arrived in The Kingdom of Aurora, penniless, withdrawn, and with a simple goal - to get rich, gain a respectable job, and die in relative peace.

First Years in Aurora
Meushar enrolled in the order just in time to participate in the Battle of New Dorasterrock, where he did little of note, but nonetheless continued to create a stable life for himself in Aurora. He became a slightly more sociable person at this point and took up several hobbies, reading and writing most notably. Meushar wrote his first book, a still unpublished history of the Allium-Coalition War, and began to rest more easy, for it seemed that all the troubles of the past were finally over, and that he had achieved all that he wished for.

Oathbreaking
The course of Meushar's life was drastically altered in early October, upon the imprisonment of three Auroran citizens as part of the Order's persecution of "Lycans", meaning anyone with any features resembling those of an animal. Among the persecuted was Argof, one of the few people in Aurora that Meushar considered a friend, and a talented writer that inspired his fondness for literature. The incident drove Meushar into a frenzy, and he tirelessly campaigned for the freedom of the three who were imprisoned, writing his first published book on the subject sitting outside of their prison cell in Winterstone. It was for nothing. One would escape and flee Aurora, but Argof and the lycan known as Vinter would both be killed by the Order.

From this point on, Meushar would become one of Aurora's most prominent Oathbreakers. Auroran Lycans, though outdated now, remains the most widely distributed work on the matter, and he continues to advocate for the end of the Order's persecution of lycans. Interestingly, Meushar is technically not an Oathbreaker, as he did not take his order vows. The hectic state of Aurora before the Coalition war meant that he was promoted on the spot on a training field, and not given a proper induction. As such, he was never made to take his vows, and he only became aware of the Order's stance on Lycans. He still refuses to take them, though.

Meushar fought in the three largest battle of the Uldarash Civil War, at the battles of Terroja, Hapatmitas, and Fornost. He was wounded in the last one, specifically in the battle of the Cathedral. Following the civil war, he purchased the Undermill Library, and hoped to retire to writing literature. Werewolf attacks on Fornost, however, forced him to postpone this to defeat the new threat. He led several expeditions against he werewolves, but they all failed to find any werewolves to kill.

Appearance
Meushar is most commonly recognised for his large moustache. He initially wore a green hat, but made himself a new, red one. He used to exclusively wear his order uniform, as his older clothes were not suited to Fornost's winter climate. He has recently been gifted a set of clothes by a friend, which he happily wears during peacetime owing to his newfound hatred of the Auroran Order. One of his ears was mangled by a flaming arrow in his twenties, whilst his other ear was cut off in a sword fight outside of Fornost, rendering Meushar slightly deaf.
