MasterExplode

== Xoda's Life and Death ==
=== Life in Zefrania ===
==== Early Life ====
Xoda (IGN MasterExplode) grew up in squaller in the streets of outer Acodon, a state which had recently gained independence from the Sinatra Mafia. He had been abandoned on these streets as a child by his parents however showed his intelligence at an early age and he began to read and learn more about the world. He schooled himself and emerged from poverty working for the newly formed West Rathnir railway corporation where he rose to become a leading member in. The Tenoch of Zefrania, Zedis Eydur would eventually take Xoda into his own emploiment as somewhat of a secretary with a number of military roles in addition. By just 18 Xoda was called to take part in a civil war against Tegridy alongside Orlebole and Lucioio. Xoda barely survived and was battled scarred for life which lead him to lead a small group of settlers to found a new town, Blyth Yanren, all away from the violence and unrest of the rest of the nation.
==== The Formation Of Blyth Yanren ====
Blyth Yanren was formed by MasterExplode on the 10th of march briefly after being named a noble by Orleborle. At first it wasn't much, a collection of small shacks and farms on the surrounded by a winding river however over time the town slowly grew, by the 17 of march it had 4 members and 10 buildings and was the fastest growing town in Zefrania, perhaps all of Umarnu, and the vast majority of building work was done by Explode. It eventually reached its population hight under MasterExplodes term at 23 players.
==== Conflict with Azotea. ====
As Blyth Yanren grew it came into conflict with its southern neighbore Azotea, inniatially Explode treated the town nicely however this facade was quickly dropped once Azotea began claiming lands within Blyth Yanren's region, this was unconstitutional. If Azotea had been part of another nation it would of counted as a foreign land grab and could have led to a war However Azotea was part of Zefrania and therefore this was an internal matter. Orleborle approached Lego Emet ,the leader of Azotea, with an ultimatum to unclaim the illegal lands however couldn't do much about it. This all changed however when Junkybunky, the mayor of Tegridy - a neighboring town -, told Explode about a screenshot he had of Lego Emet planning a coup against Zefrania's tenoch, Orleborle, this allowed Junky and Orle to use decisive military action to exile Lego Emet and destroy Azotea. Finally the rest of the Savannah was liberated by Blyth Yanren. 
==== The Eydur Family ====
While Xoda's town grew he found himself also getting involved in politics. He was voted in as a council member and while he made almost no positive progress in his time as a council member and was often beset by political controversy he came closer to Orle again for the first time since his formative years. Orle had acted like a farther figure for much of his life and Xoda respected him greatly and Orle suggested that he could officially adopt Xoda along with his other too children, Frogmedic and Eightwhisper. On the 10th of June Xoda officially became an Eydur.
==== Deception and Betrayal ====
Over time MasterExplode found himself getting in more and more unjust trouble with the Zefranian Government. Even though he had previously become a council member from his loyalty he had began to sway away from the government. After he made a minor mistake which he had no way of knowing was a mistake and felt hard punishments because of this, incidents like this further exacerbated his disenfranchisement from the government and tenoch and after he was striped of all council responsibilities because of an incident which was as much his fault as anyone else's he began plotting with Lordivoldmordi for a better Zefrania. They planned a peaceful protest against the leaders absolute powers and the recent vassalisation of Zefrania by alda however never got that far because in less than two days the Protest had been discovered by Zefrania and they cracked down hard killing many of the members, with fellow town members like EightWhisper even turning on them. Later MasterExplode said this about Eight 'He chose the most readerly available option, he chose to follow and to maintain rather than to challenge and explore, he to follow oppression seeking power and to be that oppressor himself rather than freedom and fairness and a chance for others, in short, he chose what was easy over what was right'. MasterExplode Fled to Blyth Yanren and held of a 5 person force by himself until Lordi negotiated a deal citizens of Blyth Yanren and Takmandan (the city lead by Lordi who also had a lot of members in) who had been involved in the protest could leave easily and the towns would be preserved with new Mayors.
=== Xoda's (MasterExplode) wandering (Lore) ===
==== Death ====
While Xoda watched his previos citizens and fellow protesters board the boats to Tortuga he wandered, nothing had been said as to what would happen to him. As he was about to leave he was confronted by Orleborle. The Tenoch offered Xoda a pill while in the other hand raised a sword to Xoda's neck the pill contained Tegridian mine shaft spiders venom, completely lethal. Orle told him that he could duel him or comit suicide. Xoda, knowing that he had nothing left and that a duel would only give Orle the glory of a victory snatched the pill and swallowed it. He was dead in seconds.
==== Segra's Palace (More lore) ====
Xoda found himself wandering the desolate plains of the underworld, a freezing chill struck his bones and he could barely see 5 meters in front of him because of the thick chilling fog that made his hairs stand on end beneath his suite of TNT. He continued in the way he was going, if it was the way he had been going, for hours; the stone cold ground beneath his feet stretching into infinity. All he could do was walk and walk until his legs ached and his feet felt like they could go no more. He didn't know how long he had been walking, days, weeks, he wasn't certain. He eventually came upon a massive palace, stretching out into the distance. He went inside. He was met by an ominous figure who spoke to him "why have you come?" Xoda fell to his knees, his legs collapsing from under him. "I am Xoda" he said "can you get me out of this dammed place". The figure chuckled, "i can't but my master can; only if you do exactly what she says and reign terror on the living world will you get your freedom. "Fine" replied Xoda "to get out of this place ill do anything." "Excellent" said another voice from a throne high above and Xoda felt black chanes wrap around him, bonding him to his oath until he served Segra the goddess of war. 
==== The Battle ====
Xoda looked over the parapet of Aurora's walls upon the Ancient city; he could smell death, he clutched his trusted blade but feared he could not use it, even for his life, he had not wanted to choose this, he realised that now, the underworld had corrupted him into a mere shell, there was nothing left of what he was before. His ideals gone, his hopes and dreams lost, he could see all of the others standing with him were slaves in there own ways: to dreams of power, to what they thought was honour, to life - just like him. The Battle began, he heard clashing of swords on swords and armour and the stench of blood. Scimitars, Scyths, Maces, Spears and weapons from all across Rathnir spun through the air wheeled skilfully so that they were nothing but silver blurs. Xoda realised there were people from all across Rathnir co operating, that was just what he wanted and had fort for all of his life and Segra was destroying all of that. He was tossed forward into the Chasm and down to the streets as the wall exploded behind him and the fight intensified. He Saw ahead of him his friend TruthTurtle who had stood by his side all his life was fighting a diamond clad figure, bravely fending of strike after strike but only just. He felt Segra's curse on him dragging him forward His flaming sword lifted above his head, his mace in his other hand ready to aid his enemy and kill his friend. TruthTurtle collapsed to the floor. "Xoda your better than this, you can fight it" he said. Xoda felt the force of Segra pulling his mace towards Truths head, certain to kill him, but somehow, he resisted. His arms burned like he was holding up a million planets and he felt his chain bound soul whipped as punishment for defining its bewitched prison keepers. But somehow, he held back. "I am not your slave" he screamed at segra who he knew could hear him, "you are evil." And with that he overcame the curse and, reinvigorated, charged at the Segra supporter standing by his side and slaughtered him with a single swing of his sword. He charged forwards even as his skin cracked with all of the magical energy inside him, released when the curse had been broken, he slaughtered the undead and as good as dead, all who supported Segra, until he collapsed and the light he omitted grew brighter and hotter until he exploded in a ball of fire that he couldn't of survived.
==== Resurrection ====
Xoda lay on his deathbed in a charred crater in the centre of Fornost, he thought all was over. But then, above him, holding his legendary Skythe stood Truthturtle. He lowered his Skythe gently onto Xoda's head and it brought life back to him. He was alive, again. He stood up, his wounds healed, and walked forwards. By this point the battle was over and segra had been defeated and he was ready to help his own people, many had been spread across Tortuga but he would gather them together and find them all a safe space to live.
==== The death of his Enemy, friend, and farther ====
Soon after his resurrection Xoda returned to Zefrania. He wanted to see his old home again. The place was not doing that well; Tegridy had been abandoned, Blyth Yanren too and Acodon was a ghost town. He met with his enemy farther and once friend Orle, who looked exhausted and full of woes. There were hostilities at first however after a few drinks and some arguing they both admitted they had done wrong and moved on. Explode moved on to stay in Blyth Yanren and Orle got back to running the country, However it was only days later that Orle would die. Xoda rapidly returned to him on his death bed, but it was too late. He felt a mixture of emotions, sadness, victory, despair and these made there climax when Orle said his last words: "Xoda. Sorry, we could have gone far. I acted foolishly towards you. I am happy to see you here *cough* I will die soon. I know this much, yet I wanted to do so much more. I do not know what my fate will be in the afterlife, but I know that this is Lux's punishment upon me for abandoning her word. Do you want to know what I envisioned myself as? A great conqueror Xoda. Yet what did I do? I ruined my nation, I am sorry. I cannot stress how apologetic I am. *cough* Zefrania had so much potential. I have failed. I hope that you as the last Eydur together with Eight, will perhaps bury the axe? And carry on the legacy of how me and my predecessors would have wished. I am the only Eydur, who is not great." Xoda was confused, and suprised. He had believed Orle was a sick twisted old man, but maybe he was'nt, he had admitted how he had been wrong, at least in some ways. Xoda felt warmer towards him, but he couldn't forgive him, not for a long time.
=== The Federation of Kutaiyara ===
==== Founding ====
While Orle's speech had left him in two minds around his opinion with Orle, it had made it certain that he had to do one thing, continue Zefrania's legacy, and make sure the culture of its people, most notable the people of Blyth Yanren and Takmandan. He gathered them in Tortuga and they elected their leaders, of which Xoda was among. He, along with Lordivoldmordi, Sinkturtle, and Saladsalamander, lead them to try and find land, but it was hard, multiple times they waited months in squalid conditions for a deal that wound not work out. And twice they thought they found land but had to leave, but finally, The people of Kutaiyara (What they now called themselves) would arrive on the shores of Dande, who gave them a home. Xoda would found Kutaiyara's capital, but he pledged that it would be the capital of the people, and along with Eightwhisper's city of Karabinia, Kutaiyara had finally found a permanent home.
==== The Vynquist Family ====
As part of his diplomatic business around the New Union of Dara Lumonde which Kutaiyara had formed along with a number of other Dust Belt states Xoda found himself visiting the state of Solmia where he met up with the Diplomat Russic Vynquist. Xoda and Russic got on with each other amiably and found they had many simalarities: they looked simaler, they had both come from South ummarnu, and what Xoda knew of his Family heritage was simaler to that of Russic's powerful family, the house of Vynquist. When Xoda returned home to Kutaiyara, he did so with Russic to make some experiments on both of their DNA's and determined that they were in fact Brothers. It seemed that somehow Xoda had been abandoned or lost from the Family in South Ummarnu while Russic remained in contact with them. With this Development Xoda chose to return to his historical name Vynquist. 
==== Marriage and Dara leadership ====
Soon explode would become more interconnected with the Dara leadership, and after finally retiring as Kutaiyaran Chancellor after 3 successful terms, he would be greeted with the Grand Marshall role in the Dara gov in where he managed many military and foreign affairs. He would travel the world leading small battalions to wars in this period, and while his military skill and experience were often insulted, this travelling did bring him a much bigger prize than glory. He would meet his fiance Froby while in Phagosia investigating Dara's involvement in a civil war in the nation. Froby was the Phagosian leader, and they quickly fell in love, after just a few months, Froby and Xoda would get married in the Nas'iib Cathedral of New Tichmorok in Dara however the wedding would be interrupted by a raid by a Glanran, an enemy of Phagosia, and this was the incident where Xoda realised that the Enemies of Phagosia were now his enemies.
