Pelagius (last name TBD):
Age: 158 years
Appearance: White hair with ponytail and beard
Mentality: Currently sane but overall unstable
Born into an uncaring abusive family of slavers, Pelagius did not have much influence other than his possessive, mad parents. Every day since Pelagius could hold a staff he was subjected to rigorous training in order to become his fathers “perfect son” in the arts of a Lore Master. While he mentally took enough abuse to make any sane person go mad he had one advantage over others, a girl named Meylinn. Pelagius met Meylinn in one of the few times he was allowed to leave his home in Dale in which they eventually became great friends, and later lovers. Through Meylinn Pelagius learned to be true to himself, a mentality that kept his parents from ruining his natural kind natured attitude. At the age of 18, Pelagius had become a brilliant Lore master just as his parents had crafted him to be. Constantly hounded by his father to continue training so that he could eventually take over the family business, Pelagius finally decided that he had enough. With Meylinn, he ran away from his daily torture infuriating his father greatly who as a result swore his revenge. The following years after his departure, Pelagius lived with Meylinn finally at peace in the cottage they built together within the woods. During this time he had two children with Meylinn, a boy named Uriel and a girl called Dennea and would often spend his time in the woods. Pelagius humbled by what Meylinn had given him was everything his father wasn’t to his children, caring, loving and encouraging them constantly. His bliss in the forest was short lived as his father finally took up his promise-hiring assassins to end his sons “fantasy” and bring him back home. Pelagius returned from his hunting trip to the sight of his wife and children strung up dead in front of his home greeted by the smiling assassins. Riddled with despair and pure hatred Pelagius unarmed the two assassins and tortured them for days to find information he needed before killing the assassins. A part of Pelagius died that fateful day and was replaced with a sole goal to kill his parents.
Pelagius for months searched for information of their location killing whoever stood in his way. During one of his contracts he was approached by a cloaked figure who said they could aid him in finding what he seeked in which he readily agreed. Just as his new “family” had promised he found his parents a week later and smiled the whole time as he finally ended his tormentors. Having truly nothing left to live for with his vendetta completed Pelagius turned off what had made him into the man he truly was and become a ruthless killer for his new family, happily taking contracts. It was only until one contract that this pattern was finally broken, a contract on an Elf family. As Pelagius efficiently dispatched of the parents he was startled to what he heard, the cries of an infant from under the now dead mothers arms. From just the cries of this infant Pelagius was reminded of what his life was like with Meylinn, of his son, a life that seemed lost. Guilt ridden, Pelagius did not complete the rest of the contract, instead taking the elf infant in as his own naming it Arilhir. Pelagius spent the rest of his time in the “family” raising Arilhir as his own; with the same affection he gave his own son. Realizing that he was reaching the end of his life Pelagius hastily used his abilities to increase his lifespan for longer than a normal human by absorbing life forces from his animal companions and honing the power in his staff. Above all Pelagius feared the possibility of leaving his now adopted son alone.
Age Pelagius was when he adopted Arilhir: 60 years
Pelagius keeps a journal where he writes his daily thoughts. As of now Arilhir does not know of his true parents fates.
(Thanks for reading ^^, I apologize for any grammer/spelling mistakes. I did my best I just didn't wan't to spend to much time worrying about it. Also I was thinking of writing the actual journal out for him but let me know if I should)
