Bio
Aurus was born into a rich family deeply embroiled in sorcery and it's secretive society. This societey highly prioritizes talent and innate power, as only those who exemplify the strength of their bloodline can have the chance to rise up and represent their families, possibly even becoming a member of the Council of Elders, effectively the government of sorcerers.
Aurus was born with extremely weak magical ability, making him effectively crippled. His father saw him as a disgrace, and ignored Aurus almost completely. When Aurus was around 5, his parents split. His father took Aurus' two brothers with him, leaving Aurus' mother with the problem child.
Aurus spent his years in relative comfort, constantly cursing his father's name, and the very concept of sorcery that seemed to so heavily control and shape the lives of Aurus and his family. As he got older, he mellowed out, becoming determined to show those around him that one could thrive simply off of time and effort, without relying on innate talents or magic. Despite this goal, he still allowed his mother to teach him about magic.
The boy made his way through schooling, and found himself in a position at his father's company, NelTech. He spent roughly 4 years working tirelessly, climbing the ranks, eventually getting himself a spot on the company's board of directors.
Aurus' goal with all of this was simply to get his father to notice him, to care that he existed. Just because Aurus wasn't born with talent didn't mean he couldn't develop it. So, after roughly 19 years, Aurus had finely entered back into his father's life. He stayed working on the board for about a year before he felt that his life had become stationary and boring.
He asked his father if there was some way for him have a more mobile job. Aurus' father decided to have Aurus travel around and check on the different branches of NelTech, a job that he would generally do himself, so that Aurus would be able to conduct his search. Aurus was suprised that his father allowed this, guessing that he might finally have started feeling sorry for keeping Aurus out of his life for so long.
Aurus really just wanted to get away from the work which had become empty and monotonous to him. Aurus had begun to feel that everything he had worked so hard to gain had become pointless. There was no goal, no reason to continue on. It was a good, well paying job, but it was dull, and without any interesting and exciting things happening in his life, Aurus kind of felt lost. He thought that maybe,just maybe, this new position would allow him to regain some part of his previous drive and happiness.
When Aurus got off the plane at the first city of his new assignment, he found that his father had an extra clause that he forgot to mention, Aurus would have to deal with Arna, his new assistant and secretary, who just so happened to be a sorceress herself. She informed Aurus of all of his new duties, dealing both with NelTech, and the politics of the Sorcery World, which he was now apparently supposed to deal with.
You would think that being a sorcerer, and being able to cast spells and whatnot would be great and fun, but in reality, it's just a lot of political nonsense and in-fighting. Aurus job in the world of Sorcery was to hype up his father, support his ideas, and relay any new information to his father, which mostly meant a good bit of paperwork. On the surface, Aurus was simply an executive for NelTech who went around and inspected the status of the different branches all around the world.
He has been doing this for the past year, and it has definitely been a lot more interesting than sitting at a table with a bunch of grumpy old fools. At times, Aurus had wished that this could go on forever, traveling to new places, doing interesting things, meeting odd people. Though, Aurus knows that this wouldn't last forever. He had already started to feel tired of constantly flying, becoming exhausted with the everchaning scenery. Every once in a while, Aurus' mind flutters back to the name and date on his wrist. He waits for that date to come, as if it somehow might hold the key to Aurus' happiness.
Occupation Aurus works for his father's company, NelTech. He currently travels around the world, checking up on the multiple branches of NelTech.
Country of Origin United States of America
Feelings about meeting their soul mate Aurus feels that his happiness might completely rely on meeting them. He needs a reason to keep moving, to go forward, and if this soulmate is supposed to be the perfect person for him, then there is no better reason to continue on.
Soul mate (Leave this blank until I assign your characters their soul mates)
"M-My first soulmate's name was Taylor. God, t-that was quite a few millennium back.... Anyways, I-I fell in love with him because I-I thought that's what I-I was supposed to d-do with a soulmate; which, i-it is. But looking back now, I-I feel like I-I fell in love too fast. I-It was the night before our wedding and w-we...." Adam stopped, and gave a little awkward cough. "B-Broke the bed as you put it. Heh heh. A-anyways while we were sleeping I-I changed and Will...Will murdered him i-in his sleep. When I-I woke up the next morning surrounded in a p-pool of blood, I-I was devastated. T-Tried to kill myself. O-Of course, it didn't work. N-Never does."
@Ace of flames01 I thought it looked different the second time around :p Ahh my thumb is so sore from phone typing. No more tonight for me :/
I made some assumptions that you would go along with Dorians actions but if I ever do that and you wanted to interject or do something different just let me know and I'll happily change it :)
It's that controlling side of his. I might edit it tomorrow just adding some mood and flair. But bed time now... Night!
@Dark Light yeah I kinda have a tendancy to add things in later that i dont think of right away and I tend to add music when I find the video and/or the music fit what is happening in the story lol
And no biggie! I don't particularly mind him taking a bit of control over what was happening. If you think it might bug me just feel free to ask, I don't mind.
I will possibly be getting a post up before I start my shift today, with both of my twins. Though no promises or guarantees. On the other hand, anyone who wants to interact with them may.
