A wizard insulted the ‘mongrel’ facing him before finding himself leveled by a powerful spell, and the same ‘mongrel’ at his throat, blade drawn.  Background: Aust’s background is not really known.  It is known to those close to him that he came from the Northern Tundras, beyond the Empire’s northernmost borders.  He speaks almost nothing of his mother, father, or any family, only mentioning the ‘fun things’ he has done since entering the Empire some two years prior.Soon after crossing, he stopped at the village of Red Haven, only to find the innkeeper and most of the villagers being under the control of a corrupt magistrate in cahoots with a crooked group of jewel thieves.  After he watched the innkeeper’s daughter be assaulted by the magistrate’s city watch, he turned into a ‘one man battering ram.’  The magistrate’s manor, the thieves den, as well as the barracks of the bribed members of the city watch were in flames by the end of the night.  Tess knows for sure that this happened... her organization was about to break up the ring when this unknown stranger blasted through their targets.His antics and adventures towards the south, if one listens to his commentary, vary from the righteous, to the comical, to the insane (he claims to have wrestled a bear, and the next day snuck up to the room of the daughter of the local lord, for example).  It is almost impossible to imagine someone as young as him doing as many things as he claims, however.What is known for sure is how young Aust attracted the attention of the Angels.  On Midsummer’s Eve, the capital city of Iskeldrun hosted the annual Imperial Tourneys, challenges both of arms and of magical skills.Few gave the ill-clad, poorly styled boy with the sharp Northern accent any chance against even the minor mages of the Imperial court, in their coifed finery and holding their gold leaf spellbooks.  The crowds were stunned, as one after another, every mage that went against him found themselves bested by his wild, seemingly random tactics.  His speed was too fast for some mages, who suddenly found themselves facing a bladesman at close range.  For others, his ability to simply block their weaker attacks as he marched forward was enough to cause them to kneel in surrender.Aust seems more than capable of becoming something great.  From what Tess has seen, he relies too much on his weapons, and not enough on his magic... but advice must be carefully given to him.  His pride and youthful arrogance has caused more than one would be mentor to be rebuffed vigorously.</blockquote>
