James Pond

James Pond is a man with a dream, a dream to become a renowned architect and builder. He comes from a not so wealthy family who resided in a small rundown shack which over the years has been completely lost to nature and is no a longer place which can be visited. He left home in search of a town he could learn more and one day become an architect for his nation, The Kingdom of Aurora.

About
A relatively normal citizen of Fornost who lives in the inner part of Fornost. He also owns a General Store and Alcoholic Café.

Childhood
James doesn't remember a lot from his childhood, although from what he remembers, he was born in Uldarash and that his parents come from the Verdania mountains region although James doesn't know the exact location. When he was young his first form of education was that of building and thus sparked his dream of becoming a famous architect. He didn't have many friends as he lived in a remote area and therefore doesn't have the best ability to socialise with other people.

Religion
James is a follower of the Religion Felsonsvhon's Hands, a religion that James has very little information on and doesn't remember much on it. He follows it as it's the only religion he knows of, and he doesn't know the proper way of following it so he simply builds and honours it to his god. He has no ability to speak the weird language that is written in the public religious texts, but vaguely remembers his parents speaking a different language when he was young.

Religious Journey
Here is the accounts of James' religious journeys

The First step to knowledge
James had some time off from planning the Lumber Mill and decided to travel to Felsonsvhon's Landing. The journey there was one of ease at the start due to the roads Aurora built and then a bit of mountain hoping and onto the roads of Palovina and came upon the Temple. What he found horrified him, the temple was in ruins and for what he could see no-one was to be seen. This scared him as he was following what seemed like a dead religion, lost to time. He knew that the only what to find out any information on his religion he had to travel back to a familiar place, home. With the new information he set off and travelled back home to find and speak to his parents. Upon arriving to his old home he found no-one and as he called his parents names no reply came except a long silence. When he entered the now completely destroyed home he found no trace of any living being there and stared at horror. All traces of his parents were gone but all his possessions were still there. What happened to his parents that would cause them to take all their stuff and leave his? He sat down and contemplated this jarring situation. After what seemed like hours he came to realise something. His parents always had a saying that never made sense to him, "When we have completed what we have set out to complete, we shall return to Felsonvhon and his haven." Does that mean his parents are no longer of this world?

Magic
James has no idea of when he came upon this power, which he is told is magic. Magic is something James has very little knowledge on and has never seen magic being used by someone before. He doesn't know how he has this magic or how he uses it. All he knows is that his magic isn't normal, his magic isn't magic that can hurt nor is it magic that can heal. The magic James possesses seems to be magic that he unconsciously infuses into his tools allowing him to build and sculpt with easy and beauty. It also seems that James can only infuse this magic into the tools in which his father made for him when he left to explore the world.

Architectural Projects
James Pond is currently working on the Lumbermill outside Fornost with other trainees such as Muffila The Hun, Ward and Forsaken Lights.
