Peter5885

Peter Cahya (IGN: peter5885) (more commonly referred to as Peter) is a former Shah of Solisios and former Triumvir of the Lusarii Imperium. 
== Early Life ==
There is very little information regarding Peter's youth. The first records of him are of his arrival in Luxios on April 27, 2021, when the city was in its infancy. He was greeted by the Shah, Prajuri Cahya, who toured him around the fledgling Solisios. Peter rose through the ranks of society quickly. After the resignation of Solisios's chief commander, Peter was able to secure said position after demonstrating knowledge of warfare and great oratory skills. This position put him on the highest council of the country, and effectively became second in command.
== Eternal Flame Crisis ==
On May 25th, 2021, Peter was alerted by Shah Prajuri Cahya, who noticed that the Eternal Flame, said to be the lifeblood of Lux herself, was put out. Furthermore, chickens clucking clues to the whereabouts of Lux made a sudden appearance. On the 27th of May, after many failed item and player sacrifices, the two, along with UNK_MER, used the clues the chickens gave them, traveled to the sunken island of Tessel. They were then guided underground to a void pit, which contained floating torches, which were actually lost souls. Prajuri then proceeded to sacrifice UNK_MER, along with several valuable items by pushing him into the void pit. As a result, a major roar could be heard as the land above the void pit would break open, exposing the void to the outside world. Prajuri and Peter then went back to Luxios, where they discovered that the eternal flame had been restored, and burned even brighter than it had before.
== The Great Floods of Rathnir ==
On the 30th of June/1st of July, 2021, after several lightning strikes ocurring around Rathnir, a loud and mysterious voice announced, "The Great Rain of Rathnir has started. Rathnir has had many great rains. The old world starts anew!". Peter, who was awake at the time, alerted Prajuri to the sudden and potentially catastrophic event. The two made a sacrifice to Lux at the Luxios temple, to which Lux accepted. After around a minute of silence after the sacrifice was accepted, Prajuri went back to his home, while Peter kept watch on the Lux temple. Lux then spoke to Peter through the usage of various signs. Peter quickly alerted Prajuri, who quickly managed to record everything that Lux told him."Peter, Who are you?"
"You have cursed upon it"
"you have cursed x4"
"upon it x4"
"tomorrow peter."
"you will end the rain"
"you and your hand of the light"
"let the true believers reign"
"Find the statue of redstone and quartz"
"there lies many powers"
"slay a cow there and offer blood and so the rain shall end"
"its in the north where the messenger lives"
"good luck"
"search in the online archive"
The two then set out on a quest to put an end to the flood. They first visited Urnu Arrak, where they learned that the rains had done catastrophic damage to cities around Rathnir due to intense flooding. After visiting Urnu Arrak, they then visited New Dorasterrock in hopes of finding the statue, but to no avail. Finally, after even further exploration, the two were finally able to find the mystical statue in a birch forest close to Choppertown. They then sacrificed several cows at the statue, which led to the rains stopping, but only temporarily. After finding out that the cow sacrifices would not work, Peter volunteered to sacrifice, but was persuaded not to by Prajuri. They then concluded that they must sacrifice their powerful gear in order to put an end to the rains and floods. The two then put their armor and weapons in a chest in front of the statue, and after giving a prayer, the chest was struck with lightning. The statue, made of redstone and quartz blocks then began to glow brightly as all the blocks turned into glowstone. However, this beauty was shortlived, as the statue then abruptly exploded, leaving a crater where it once sat. In the crater laid a chest that contained sun shards, in addition to two extremely powerful artifacts that still remain secret to this day. The two, completely exhausted after their long journey, finally went back home to Luxios, much to their joy that they had ended the Great Flood of Rathnir.
== Construction of the Statue of Lux ==
From 1-3 July, 2021, Peter designed a statue that would be seated upon a nearby mountain. He began construction on 4 July following the design's completion, finishing the statue's construction it in a relatively short time of just a few hours. Peter considers the Statue of Lux his Magnum Opus.
== The First Relic War ==
=== The Heist of Luxios ===
On 16 August, 2021, Peter was critically injured after the Heist of Luxios. and was horrified to learn that not only were several of his fellow guards at the university killed, but the powerful artifact, the Sword of the Sun, was stolen by a group of Huitcans led by LilyPrism.
=== The Battle of the Kushite Sea ===
In the prelude to the Battle of the Kushite Sea, Peter constructed the ship, the SNV Tenebris, along with two smaller ships, the SNV Cutu and SNV Kejde (the latter two sinking in the battle). On the day of the battle,29 August, 2021, Peter partook in the fighting, being noted to have fought valiantly in defending one of the smaller Solisian vessels, even by the enemy.
=== The Siege of Luxios ===
After strategically withdrawing to Luxios, Peter partook in preparing the defenses of Luxios. During the battle on 5 September, 2021, he notably used invisibility pots to confuse the enemy. He put himself in diamond armor and bore a Huitcan shield. He then ran into the university building that was occupied by several Huitcan soldiers and splashed invisibility potions. Coincidentally enough, every Huitcan soldier wore diamond armor, thus making every one of them indistinguishable. This resulted in one of the Huitcans accidentally killing eachother in the confusion. He then fled before the invisibility potion wore off. He also partook in the final attempt to retake the temple of Luxantia, which was to no avail. He was present when Prajuri Cajya surrendered to the Huitcan forces. 
== The Disappearance of the Sun ==
On September 18th, 2021, after vampires in Eldham took away the sun, leaving the world in complete darkness, Peter, along with Prajuri, lapistar (Emelyn), Wialend (Scolai), and Sarkness666 (Alexo, made a sacrifice to Lux at the temple of Luxantia. The flame at Luxantia then proceeded to go out, to which the group reacted in shock. After making sure the Eternal Flame at the Luxios temple was safe, they proceeded to run over to Tenebras, the temple to Tenebris. Peter, who arrived there first, quickly shouted out that the temple was being slowly consumed by the void and decaying at a rapid pace, as the pillars turned to obsidian and bedrock. The group, after arriving at the void portal, were suddenly trapped as a bedrock wall had formed around them. The temple then began falling apart as a mysterious force, presumably Tenebris, was about to crush them all with sandstone. As the sandstone clump came down upon them slowly, Alexo demanded that he be sacrificed in order to save everyone else. Prajuri then hesitantly obliged and sacrificed him by stabbing him and pushing him into the void portal. The sandstone then froze midair. The survivors were then given fire resistance as lava came through the newly-formed ceiling (the frozen sandstone, as the portal was previously open to the sky). They then swam up this lava up to world height, where they were surprised to find that Alexo was still alive in what appeared to be a sanctuary in the sky. The group then discussed amongst themselves, suggesting that they may have all just died. Prajuri, throughout this discussion, would mysteriously glow at random intervals. Towards the end of their discussion, the group then began to float a few blocks into the air one at a time. The group, after sharing their regrets in life, then collectively decided that they still had work to do, and should correct their mistakes. The mysterious force then gave them all slow falling, and they all jumped off of the heavenly sanctuary. They all went back to Luxios, to which Peter was then gifted mysterious items at the Eternal Flame. He was also given a book that read:
To this day, none of them have been certain as to how much of the event was real, or whether it even happened at all.
== The Second Relic War ==
=== The Assassination of Boram Artonus ===
On 13 Nobember, 2021, Peter, along with a few other members of the Luxite paramilitary group, the Swords of the Eclipse, stayed hidden in the mountains along the path that the former chief warrior, Boram Artonus, would be taking. He, along with the other members, quickly scaled down the mountain and quickly overtook the guards and killed Boram. There are two accounts to Boram's death, those being the RP death and the OOC death. 
In the RP death, Peter would be the one who ultimately struck the fatal blow onto Boram when he shot him with his crossbow as he fled up an unfinished staircase before being shoved to the ground by FStone.
In the OOC death, Peter missed his shot as a result of FStone shoving him to the ground. Boram then quickly ran back down the unfinished staircase due to reaching a dead end, narrowly avoiding Choochie. Roughly 10 seconds later, he was finished off with a stab to the back by CubedM. 
After Boram's death, he sparred with Boram's guards, before running after being outnumbered via a boat back to Luxios.
=== The Battle of Borktress ===
Peter drew up the war plans for this particular battle, which was the first major engagement of the Second Relic War (taking place on 27 November, 2021). He was noted to have defeated LilyPrism in a duel over one of the objectives. He also supported his fellow soldiers in driving them out of the Borktress
=== The Battle of the Blue Moon ===
Peter, along with Prajuri Cahya, rallied the troops and organized them into four divisions on 18 December, 2021. while at the captured Huitcan fortress of Borktress. While marching to Elkanfeldt, they were ambushed by Huitcan troops, killing more than half of them. Peter was the only high ranking official to make it to Elkanfeldt alive. 
=== The Duel with FStone ===
Peter personally sent a letter to Fstone to duel with him at the Entropy battle site. The two met there on 28 December, 2021. The two fought valiantly against one another, but FStone ultimately came out on top, with Peter's armor on the verge of breaking. He then surrendered, and vowed to defeat him in the next major battle.
=== The Battle of Elkanfeldt ===
Peter and Prajuri Cahya arrived at the major agricultural town of Elkanfeldt with a massive army. They charged at the town en masse, overwhelming the defenders and ultimately crushing them in a complete and decisive victory.
== Ascension to the Throne ==
On 16 February, 2022, Peter woke up to news that disturbed him. He was informed that Shah Prajuri Cahya was murdered by Caligo cultists in Tenebras. Peter's first act as Shah was to condemn the cultists that murdered his predecessor. An invasion of Kartek, the home of the Caligo cultists, was planned in coordination with Ecclesia, but was called off.
== Involvement in the Segra War ==
=== The Initial Segrist Assault on Luxios ===
On 15 June, 2022, Peter heard a commotion occurring at the Eternal Flame —a group of anti-Segrists from Paloro approached Emelyn to forge a weapon with shards of the blade of Entropy to defeat Segra. The shards were kept in a chest by the Eternal Flame to be kept safe. Peter left the Eternal Flame to ensure that nothing was going wrong at Tenebras. He came back to Luxios, only to find that Segrists had overrun the city. Emelyn made it back to her apartment safely, but was mortally wounded by a Segrist, Howertt. The latter demanded that she reveal the location of the shards, but the former remained steadfast. Peter sneaked into his home and went into the basement as Segrists were searching for him. Knowing he could not fight his way out of it, he quickly brewed two invisibility potions and consumed one. He snuck into Emelyn's apartment and gave her the other potion. He left a message, reading, "Meet me at the Tenebras. We need to evacuate and regroup." Peter snuck out through the gates and stealthily killed a Segrist, before proceeding to Tenebras. Meanwhile, Emelyn went back to the Eternal Flame —which was now surrounded by Segrist champions — and took the shards.
At Tenebras, Peter suggested that the two perform a ritual to Tenebras in order to gain his strength. As he performed the ritual, Emelyn collapsed. As he pleaded for her life, she revealed that she had the shards and gave them to him. She told him to go to Athazolant to meet with NecXYZ and learn how to forge the blade— which was to be made in a "temple of the sun," irrespective of religion. She then died, as he crouched by her side in despair.
=== Athazolant ===
After a long and arduous journey, Peter arrived at Athazoland, where Athaz awaited him on his mansion's doorsteps. He informed Athaz that Emelyn was killed. As Peter attempted to describe what had happened in a panicked manner, Athaz regrettably informed him that crusaders had just left Athazolant with the last shard. A possessed shard that Peter held attempted to lure him into giving the shard up by gifting him with riches. In spite of these sudden riches, he refused the temptations. NecXYZ, along with other crusaders, abruptly returned, somehow finding out that Peter had the remaining pieces to the weapon. Now that they were all in one place, hovering, infernal creatures began shooting fireballs at the group, who ran into the mansion for safety.
Upon entering the throne room of the mansion, the group Peter explained that in order to forge the blade, they would need to find a temple of the sun. The mansion was then breached by Segra's creatures. Athaz led them out of the back exit and fled Athazolant with haste. 
=== The Temple of the Sun (Luxantia) ===
The group arrived at the shores of Solisios after narrowly escaping the creatures that attempted to hunt them down. Peter led the group towards Luxantia, the second most important temple in the Lux faith. Luxantia was located just beyond the walls of Luxios, making the temple a risky choice for forging the blade. Peter proceeded to place all the pieces together in a chest by the temple's flame. He issued a prayer over the chest, causing lightning to strike the flames several times, thereby creating the blade. Suddenly, Segra's voice boomed across all of Rathnir, speaking to Peter.
Segra: Peter5885, why have you forged a sword? Do you not know I am the lord of all swords, and none can touch me?
Peter: Segra, this is the sword which slew Entropy. It is the blade reconstructed from the shards of the void!
Segra: And what is this? I have not seen such a sword before.
Peter: And yet you claim to be Entropy herself.
Segra: Yes. I am her come [sic] to fulfill the promise.
Peter: Then gaze upon the sword that slew you. Or did you say you do not recognize it?
Segra: I... I do not...
Peter: Then release the sun, fiend! We know you are not Entropy. The world in its whole sees you are not Entropy! The Entropy worshippers do not side with you, and you are a fool for keeping the eternal night!
Segra: .....
Peter: Release the sun! False claimant to the mantle of Entropy!Segra promptly ended the night that had plagued Rathnir for months. Anti-Segrists rejoiced as the Segra's champions retreated from the city. Segra's voice boomed out one more time. "You fools, you have taken me up on something you cannot fulfill yourselves. I will return later to prove that Entropy is lowly compared to me. I have still devoured her. I am still the next coming!"
=== Emelyn's Burial ===
Peter entered through the gates of Luxios to the cheers of everyone. His mood then shifted to despair, as he remembered the fate of one of his closest friends. He then announced the death of Emelyn, and led the massive crowd to Tenebras, where she would be buried in a makeshift grave.
