Julius Morrow

Julius Morrow is the former Archmage Arcane of Nova Aurora, notable for his accomplishments early on in his career and being forcibly impeached from his position of power after dabbling in the powers of Necromancy. He appeared as undead to the Forsaken, and has several connections to many of the party.

## Description

### Appearance

As a human, many people knew Julius as a handsome man, with short-ish brown hair styled in a fringe-up hairdo. He also had a lightly shaven beard. He wore the red and gold robe of the Archmage Arcane, and had blue eyes.

Before his undead transformation, Julius manifested a dark mark on his forehead, composed of a line running across his forehead, and five more going down his face: two going down his eyes to his cheeks like scars, and one going down to the tip of his nose. His arms were also adorned in necromantic scars.

As a lich, Julius was completely bald with gray, slightly shredded skin, and the same robe, albeit slightly worn, and tattered at the hem.

### Personality

Before he turned into a lich, Julius was known as a very good person, and helped the people of Nova Aurora through various challenges, and improved living conditions of the city.

Eventually, Julius seemed to care less about the people, mostly sticking to himself after the incident in *The Edge of Imagination*, becoming cold and secluded.

## Synopsis

### Background

Julius Morrow was born in Nova Aurora, and was a prodigy under the Wizard College of Nova Aurora. Majoring in three schools, Chonurgy, Graviturgy, and Evocation. Eventually, he was elected to be the next Archmage Arcane of Nova Aurora, the central leading figure of the city. He increased living conditions and cut down poverty for his citizens, and launched a new age of prosperity. Julius also built a skylab known as *The Edge of Imagination*, and performed magical experiments there. One of such was the *Temporal Retractor*, a device capable of reversing time to a limited extent. From the little information the public knew, it backfired, aging Julius' family to dust who had watched his progress. Horrified and guilt-stricken, Julius remained in the tower for months, and society dwindled.

Eventually, Julius' approval rating went down, since he stayed in his skylab for months. When mercenaries hired by the Royal Family Auroron were sent to investigate, the Blood Hunters, they caught Julius dabbling in necromancy, and a brief fight ensued, ending in Julius transporting much of his laboratory to an unknown plane of existence, and him escaping. That was the last the public had heard of Julius.

### Arc 2: The Remnants

Julius, as an undead, appeared before The Forsaken at the top of Neobabel, taunting both Abigail Verglas and Marif before transporting them to a room containing a portal to The Other Side. It was revealed that he was the source of the Mysterious Voice inside the party's heads.

## Other Information
