Recovered from Old Elysian Forum.
Familia Sol.
- Founded during the early years of combat by weary warriors of the Sun realm.
- Moved as a group into a secluded part of Akanbar’s northern coast.
- Years of isolation led to a erosion of old traditions and formation of new ones, creating a new culture loosely based off of Elysium’s.
- Sun worship was the religion of Familia Sol, because throughout time the name of Aten was forgotten, but was still honoured.
- A peaceful culture, but to preserve this peace they trained in unarmed combat and swordplay.
- Meditation and self-control was highly valued.
- Most members of the family were adopted, and the various families within Familia Sol began to intermarry over the years, but even at the time of its fall, not everyone was related by blood.
- The youth trained in combat, learned lore, and was responsible for gathering food for the family.
- The adults taught, discussed in the meeting hall, built and repaired buildings and equipment, farmed, fished, and patrolled the area for threats.
- Aklentos was out gathering food when Demonic raiders, foot soldiers lead by a pyromancer, by chance stumbled across Villa Sol and burnt it, with all it’s inhabitants, to the ground.
- Striken with sorrow after returning and seeing the backs of the Golgonatian soldiers marching away from his shattered home, he fled into the wilderness.
-14 years old when he left.
Lost.
- 15 years old
- Aklentos wandered throughout various parts of Akanbar during this time, surviving off the land for one year.
- Mildly insane and experiencing intense emotional trauma.
Celestial Isle.
- Sailing on his own, seeking peace for his sorrowful soul in storming waters, he is shipwrecked and floats on a piece of wreckage to the shores of Celestial Isle.
-Here he begins his education on the people of the land, as he had no such previous formal education because of the seclusion of his family.
- He met Lasair here, and as a result of this and his love for storms he went on to join the Storm Wardens, whom Lasair was the head of.
- As time went on, he met other companions, such as Drogo.
Elysium.
- Aklentos arrived in the actual city of Elysium as a full citizen at the age of 17.
- An active and promising youth, Aklentos advanced quickly and soon, under the guidance of Lasair, became a Senator of Elysium.
- During his time in the Senate, Aklentos felt a call into another path. While he loved storms and his guild, something deep within him called him to walk the difficult path of the Templar. After speaking with several people and sadly informing Lasair of his decision, Aklentos laid down his Storm Warden mantle, and took upon himself a new one, the mantle of a Templar.
- Being more experienced then most pages and being entirely devoted to the guild, he quickly moved up the ranks here.
- After being replaced in the Senate, Aklentos earned his knighthood and was knighted by Sir Arthos, the preceptor of the Templars.
- After Lasair left, and the proconsul became Lady Jaide, Aklentos felt mildly disconcerted with some of the choices the Sun Realm made. But in his loyalty to the Sun Realm, he did not express such views.
Demonic and Rogue Years.
- A page, being a demonic in disguise, manipulated an inflamed long lost emotions in Sir Aklentos, causing him to take a public stance opposing Lady Jaide.
- After realizing his error and publicly apologizing, Aklentos in his shame, headed to the Demonic Realm under special conditions (No demonic titles, no worship of demonic gods, etc.) to mourn what he had done and to send a message to Elysium (one which was of course, misinterpreted, but that is the nature of Aklentos, he sometimes does things and means something by them which other people can’t see.)
- Realizing that once again, he had made a foolish mistake, for in his heart the light of the sun still was shining brightly, Aklentos left the Demonic Realm and became a Rogue.
- After leaving for a time, Aklentos returned and petitioned for Citizenship. Showing honest sorrow for his previous mistakes and an obvious willingness to return and serve wholeheartedly, Aklentos was readmitted to his home, Elysium, city of the sun where he would begin his life as a Templar over.
The Second Era for Aklentos in Elysium.
- Aklentos vanished for a time after coming home.
- He was on a long journey to reclaim his spirit.
- After returning, Aklentos earned his spurs as a knight for the second time under Lady Jaide.
This is just my outline, as it will take some time to complete the entire history, I decided to post this to show people something about my character for the time being.
