Dressed in dark shades of blue and red, the glint of something shiny can be glimpsed beneath a dark blue cloak. Long, blue/black hair curled to his shoulders and piercing sky blue eyes viewed his surroundings from beneath the hair that fell loosely around his face.</p><p></p><p><strong>Personality:</strong> Zykovian spends much of his time brooding about life, existence, and fate, when not challenged or on a mission. On a job, or on the streets at night looking for trouble, Zykovian is intent, focused and driven. To those he helps, Zykovian is friendly, courteous to a fault, and genuinely concerned about their well-being. Zykovian has been running solo for several weeks and hasn’t really interacted with teammates and companions. Those times are changing.</p><p></p><p><strong>Early Background/Origins:</strong><span style="font-size: 9px"> Zykovian was born into the arcane world of Altania into an arcane family living in Avani. Growing up, his father left for some time while Zykovian was young. Returning when Zyk was eleven(change as appropriate), his father was nervous, quick to anger (actually striking Zyk once and his mother often) and seemed sort of sickly. Mere days later, after only seeing his father for a few days after his absence of years, Zykovian was told that his father was dead. Zyk’s mother tried to be gentle with him . . . but it was difficult to accept. To temper the news, his mother informed Zykovian that he was accepted into the school of Forceful Universal Modifications in Erilan, and that they would be moving there in short notice. During the transition, Zykovian became very close to his mother, depending on her for support and guidance. Although this changed somewhat once school began and the years rolled by, the bond that was forged during those trying few days remained strong.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">Speaking of bonds, Zykovian’s teacher for several year most recently had started to become attached to Zykovian, having made several overtures to more ‘personal study.’ Although the young woman was quite beautiful, Zykovian tried to keep the matter professional . . . but was weakening. Something powerfully strong would have to happen to have Zykovian tell her ‘no’ again . . . and something did. Zykovian received word that there had been an accident at his mother’s home . . . and there were no survivors. Zykovian left school to deal with the issues that remained only to find out that the home was destroyed by a powerful evocation magic gone awry . . . except that his mother was a talented enchantress who disdained evocation magics. Something was wrong here . . . hired divination magics returned little or no information, necromancy was equally as useless – the spirit was just not willing to speak . . . there were no substantial remains . . . and the cost of a true resurrection . . . was prohibitively high, very little remained in the estate after paying for damages to nearby buildings and property.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">Zykovian did manage to get to hear a few words (spoken in Eldish) just before the time of his mother’s death through an expensive psionic magick. Through the psionics, it was revealed that there was fear, and desperation, anger and hope all felt strongly at the time in the area. The words mentioned a rendevous on Eldiz and named a city . . . Zykovian knew the theoretics of spelljamming . . . now he was going to find out. Perhaps on Eldiz, he would find more information on who killed his mother. Returning to the school to settle accounts and take a short sabbatical, Zykovian discovered a package waiting for him . . . a magical breastplate of bluesteel. No return address or name was associated with the package . . . divinations only revealed the following information . . . “Because you’ll need it.”</span></p><p></p><p><strong>Recent Background:</strong> <strong>Recent Background:</strong> <span style="font-size: 9px"> Hunting someone unknown, even with a city and a world identified was difficult . . . and expensive work, especially on Eldiz. Zykovian had began subsidizing the few moneys he had left, by helping others hunt down criminals on wanted posters. It was dangerous work, but Zykovian stayed out of the way of the heavy lifting. After one such ‘adventure,’ Zykovian was stopped by a Praetorian . . . he had never seen a Praetorian so close before. The man was of few words, “I can help you in your search. First, you must do something for me. Words to get anyone nervous. Surprisingly, the Praetorian only requested that Zykovian be trained as a Marksman and he paid part of the tuition costs. On the side, the Praetorian trained Zykovian personally – even in the use of the Praetorian Warbow, though he never left one of the three bows he owned from his sight – ever. Months and months later, Zykovian graduated from the school with high marks, but the Praetorian was nowhere to be found. When Zykovian went to his lodgings, the Praetorian’s belongings were gone . . . all but a single Praetorian Warbow, one of the bows that never left his sight. No one had seen anything that happened, nor was anything dastardly thought to have happened, the man had just left. Zykovian was angry, he had lost months on the trail due to his training as a Marksman, as well as months of arcane study. And, he was broke . . . again. So it was back to the wanted posters. Eldiz was expensive place to live . . . and hunt.</span></p><p></p><p><strong>Side Notes:</strong> None at this time.</p></blockquote><p></p>
