LYTHARI ORIGIN

The Lythari are an enigmatic race of elves who are able to transform into werewolves once they reach adulthood however unlike most other races, such as Lycanthropes they can transform at will. Within this form they are able to keep their memories intact without the risk of insanity, although they have some what changed from the roots of their descendants most of the Lythari tribes travel to human lands often to trade or sell their wares.

When not traveling they live in isolated woodland strongholds allowing access to others of their kind however, it has been known that they very rarely allow outsiders within their villages. Unlike most of their elven descendants the Lythari are taller than common elves and tend to be cautious of those that they meet, despite this the Lythari are friendly and often study new people from afar before coming in contact with them.

BACKGROUND

Once hailing from one of many Lythari strongholds in the elven lands of Kelethin. At the age of 100, his father told him that he was born into a long bloodline of warriors. To appease his father Armas trained for the next eight years from that time. It wasn't until five years later that he was approached by a human sorcerer named Aurelius Reinhardt. When allowed entry within their mountain stronghold village, it was from this sorcerer by which it was gained. Armas soon discovered he had a hidden talent for magic. Instead of proceeding with his training to become the next greatest warrior like his father, he began training in secret with Aurelius to guide him with harnessing his powers. Yet the more he trained, the more his father grew suspicious of him. Ten years later, Armas's father called a meeting with the elders. Aurelius was present for this meeting. The elders gave him enough time to gather provisions and asked him to leave, also telling Aurelius never to return. Armas argued against their judgement. After all, he was interested in learning magic from him. However, using pure magic was not their way and his words fell upon deaf ears. When his father heard Armas speak about magic, he immediately disowned him and, in the process, he was banished from the clan. From there, he told the elders, including his father, that they were all selfish. It wasn't until twenty five years later that Armas decided to leave the village.

 

He took with him what few belongings he had, as well as provisions that he was given. Armas left to pursue knowledge of the outside world and in the process, left family and friends alike. He traveled to various towns and villages in hopes of finding and learning more about his hidden talents. However, it would not be until eight years later that he heard about a sorcerer who was staying in a cabin hidden deep in the woods from a local bartender. This cabin was several days away from the city. The following morning, Armas purchased a medium warhorse and rode off. Several days later, he arrived at the cabin and upon knocking on the door, he was greeted by Aurelius. From the point of their reunion, Armas stayed by his side. After fifteen years had passed, Aurelius had taught him everything he had learned. Since that time, he took his leave once again, traveling to a far distant land. Not long after he had taken leave, Armas rescued a wolf of the wilds from captivity. He soon befriended this wolf and in turn, named him Raivax. Within the following five years, Raivax as it turned out was a dire wolf. Together, the three continued to travel to where humans mostly resided. During one fateful encounter, Armas saved the life of a human warrior from immediate death by healing his wounds. In return, the man introduced himself as Andrew Graves, who told the young Lythari that he was on his way back home.

Andrew also revealed that he was glad to be able to see his family again after taking part in the war for well over five years. It was from this point that they immediately became friends, and Armas was invited to come and live within his household. Having no other place to go, he agreed. During the first several years, he came to know and respect Andrew's family and the people living around the village of Dragon's Port. He often helped them with building or bringing in cargo from the ships that were docked in the bay. Armas and Andrew met a half drow, woman named Zhai, who was being sold as a slave in a caravan. Andrew was never one to accept such an inhumane thing such as slavery. He, along with Armas, paid gold to have her freed. In an act of kindness, the half drow introduced herself and offered her services to them. Andrew gave this great consideration for a few moments, then agreed to accept the offer. Though as time went on, Armas grew more and more interested in her. But he never revealed his feelings about her to Andrew or anyone else. In the years that followed, both of them were tasked to take his oldest son, Markas, away from the village. While he went off to join the war with his unit, they were told to train him as a means of survival. For the next eight years, they trained and taught him to fight by using swords carved out of tree bark. Two and a half years later, Armas left Zhai with Markas to go back to Dragons Port. For days, he rode on horseback with Raivax following alongside him. On the third day he had arrived. Upon his arrival, Armas found the village in a blazing inferno. It appeared that all those who had lived there had been killed.

However, it turned out that not all were dead. While searching for any possible survivors, Armas found Andrew. Even though the Lythari attempted to heal him, he found that he could not. His friend's wounds were just too great. Andrew's life was quickly fading, but he had enough strength to tell Armas that it was a group of eight Drakuls who had killed everyone in the village. These Drakuls were former members of his unit that had betrayed him. However, Andrew stated that he did manage to kill three of them. Armas was given his own weapon so that he might watch over Markas, and give it to him once he became of age. The lone Lythari vowed that he would do so. With no strength left, Andrew died in his arms. After a moment, Armas moved his hand up to close his eyes. He then stood and turned back toward his horse with sword in hand. Armas moved swiftly and climbed back upon his horse. From there, he rode for days once again back to the forest. Later that night after he arrived Armas told Zhai what had happened. Several months later, the trio moved to the far distant land of Solorian. It was there where the three of them lived in the town of Ardania, which had recently been raided. The townsfolk revealed that they had been raided time and time again by a group of bandits. During their stay, Armas and Zhai helped to rebuild the town, while Markas continued his training. Three years later, he had grown up into a mature young man. When he could not continue his training, Armas and Zhai decided that it was time to tell Marcus what had happened five and a half years ago.

When it was revealed that his family and friends had been killed, Markas resented not only Zhai, but Armas, as well, for keeping it from him. Several days later, the young man forgave them, as he now understood why it was kept from him. As a promise to Markas's father, Armas presented Markas with his father's sword. A year later, all three agreed to depart from the city, but a few days before they were to leave, the town was attacked. The battle was long and fierce. It was during this battle that Zhai sacrificed herself, saving both Markas and Armas from an ambush. In the end, the remaining bandits retreated, never to return and attack the town again. The townsfolk began to rebuild their town, while others buried their dead. As a request from Markas, their close friend, Zhai, was buried among them. The two remaining friends decided to stay within the town for a few more years. Just as they were set to leave the town, Markas, who now was twenty three, wished to venture on his own to find those responsible who were still living. He wanted to avenge the deaths of his family and friends. With one final farewell to one another, both Markas and Armas went their separate ways. It has been well over two hundred years, and he has since come a long way from home. He has arrived in a land where the people come from all walks of life, living together peacefully. It would be here, where Armas along with his two animal companions, would begin a new chapter in their lives.
