Name:
"Solux", Kirel OtisAge: Unknown
Birthday: Unknown, Celebrates the winter solstice.
Guild: None
Magic: Black Sun/Moon Magic - A lost set of “spells” that are powered by a demon locked away in a different dimension. The demon uses the wizard as a host to do in its bidding in the world, and as an anchor for it to try to pull itself back into Earthland. Because of this, the magic tends to be volatile. The drawing from the demon also makes a small part of the magic actually 'curse,' meaning it cannot be fully dispelled.
Unfortunately, while Kirel might have been a promising candidate, he is not a strong enough anchor, unless he were to do something extreme.
Magic Level: No official ranking
History: Kirel was born to a farmer’s family a long time ago in some country far to the south. His parents both were practitioners of magic, something that was always very taboo where he lived. They used it to help with their farming, but they had an extensive library beneath their house that their family had gathered over the years. Many of the books were priceless copies of classic texts and magical books. He loved reading there, and spent most of his time down there reading when his parents were working in the fields while he was too young to help.
He learned much from the magical tomes and classical works in the basement library, but it was one book that entranced him the most. It was a tome meant to teach the reader to use a particular kind of magical abilities. He didn’t understand what the book meant talking about Curse and gods, but followed it anyway. While the book had no title that he could find, and so he remembered it by the
symbol on the front. The book included details of a ritual that he had to do to access the ‘magic’, but of course this didn’t seem weird to the young intellect, as he didn’t know what was required for any magic to use it.
He did all this without his parent’s knowledge, and at age ten, he was subjugated to the ritual of offering himself to the source of the dark abilities he would grow to find both solace and damnation in. It was a ritual that could only be done on the winter solstice, but due to its complexity, the child only finished it just before the moon set. What it did to him, however, left him unable to return home from where he had done the ritual for three days, as he was exhausted fully.
From the day that he returned, and his parents stopped fawning over him about disappearing, he practiced this ‘magic’ he had been initiated into. It never occurred to him to tell or even show his parents what he had adopted into his life, and he never figured out it was the ‘magic’ was giving him the notion that he didn’t need to show anyone until he had mastered it.
When it came times to work in the fields during the summers, his practice of his new abilities lessened much, prolonging the time it needed to take to corrupt him by years and years. It wasn’t until he tried a particularly difficult spell when he was nineteen that the demon that had taken him as a host finally made a bid for control. His heart stopped, for good, and he was no longer able to keep his urges to destroy at bay. He killed both of his parents, who never stood a chance against the powers that had been consuming their son for the past nine years, and burned the house to the ground. Library and all.
For the next dozen or two years, he killed, sacked, and burned down villages until he was finally chased out of home land. Forced into solitude, what was left Kirel began wearing a mask he stole off a body, covering his face and throwing off those who pursued him, and changed his name to Solux. Forced north, after several more decades, he finally came to Fiore, and it was Iron Enigma who met with him first. After a good bit of work, they managed to partially save Kirel from the entity that had conquered. Now, when he needs to be, the person that had once been Kirel Otis, could take that persona on for short times, as the two live in some kind of harmony.
Ever since, he has been sent to make a point whenever Iron Enigma has needed one made. Due to his destructive nature, he usually leaves a mess, so he is never sent to handle high-profile individuals, and Deyja typically accompanies him to make sure he doesn’t kill himself accidentally. Besides the one mage, Iron Enigma keeps ties to the known killer to a minimum, in fear of incurring the wrath of stronger light guilds, but they have became more and more lax about this.
Personality: Corrupted from the demon residing partially within him, Kirel Otis is considered insane and unpredictable. However, sometimes, he can act like a sensible person, and is very personable when he does. However, his usual self is cryptic sentences and descriptions of how he plans to torture his victims.
