Simion Ungur

"I have seen the gods of the Dark Tapestry. I have seen and wielded the power of the Guardian of the Gate. The forces of darkness fell before it in agony and terror. I will see it wielded to free my home of the horrors plaguing it. So says the Guardian."
== History ==
The tale of Simion Ungur is not one that would be sung by any bard but on the darkest and stormiest of nights. His is not a bloodline of great nobility or of powerful magics, nor is he an expertly trained warrior or paladin. His is a tale of sorrow in a sorrowful land, the desperation of an ordinary man forced into extraordinary circumstances, and the heavy price paid for the power he sought to challenge them. Born to common peasant stock, Simion spent most of life working the docks of Rozenport and living under the constant threat of werewoles, vampires, roaming undead and the numberless cults infesting the cursed country of Ustalav. His only concerns were for his immediate family, especially the young and somewhat sheltered sister, Augustina.
For a time there was a bright spot in his life. Adventurers had finally made their way to Rozenport and made for a few months of relative peace. Augustina had even found herself a husband in one of them, even if the boy was an Elf. Life was almost peaceful for a change. Of course things never stay peaceful for long in Ustalav, and this was to be no different. Not when the Whispering Way had their say in things.
It had been a fairly simple thing; The Whispering Way needed blood sacrifice, and an Elf was too good an opportunity for them to pass up. Simion was quick to enact the time-honored tradition of the peasant mob, and to most's surprise he had manage to leave his horde of men with torches and pitchforks with few loses. Saving his brother-in-law had cost him his left eye, but for the boy's safety and his sister's love it was a price he gladly paid.
The encounter had opened his eyes to a greater challenge, however. He had always been a pious man, praying to Pharasma and Desna with all he had whenever the horrors reared their heads. After this last incident though he decided that it was not enough. If his family and his country were to be safe, he would need to take a direct hand. He started in the church of Pharasma, where after filching one of the holy texts of the goddess, he gleamed mention of the alien powers that had acted alongside the her during the Age of Creation.
It was here he first learned of Yog-Sothoth.
Sincomakti was the final key to the puzzle. The academics in the university were loathe to share such dangerous occult secrets with the likes of Simion, but the dockworker gave them little choice in the matter. Within days he'd again filched from a library, this time a book of terrible arcana and dark secrets. One that whispered to him. It called itself Krivbeknih, and it promised him the power to contact Yog-Sothoth, the Guardian of the Gate.
It has been a month since then, and now Simion Ungur is no longer a mere Rozenport dockworker. He is a voice for beings beyond the ken of mere mortals. He who will bring divine vengeance to all that have plagued Ustalav. He who will see them all die screaming in madness.
== Personality ==
For the timing being, Simion is not so different from the man he used to be. He still operates in public with the same sort of rough but fair peasant sensibilities, paying all the proper respect to those of higher station and generally happy enough to help whatever community he's currently residing in. He's taken on a more militant attitude, however, and is far more eager to meet a challenge with his daggers and hew newfound magics. Even in private he does his best to bite back the growing bouts of madness, though it grows more difficult every time. Most figure its only a matter of time before he's reduced to yet another mad cultist.
== Friends/Allies ==
Kaldra - A young Andoran Kitsune seemingly touched by the magics of Fey, Simion has taken a liking to the girl. Reminding him of his sister, he sees her as an anchor to sanity, and is happy to help her in her search for answers toward her past.
== Enemies ==
None to speak of at the moment.
