## Biography

### Pre-Campaign

Rolym was born into a prestigious family, the Lamus family who is known across Serroria as masters of teaching and understanding aura. The family is also known for their assistance in the expeditions to the dark continent. Rolym was slow to learn aura and by his late teen years was the least respected in his family as relatives half his age were more experienced than him. The other family members refused to acknowledge him and was openly scolded and neglected by the family. A life changing event occurred one night when the Lamus family hosted a large wedding where Rolym's eldest sister Saura was being married to another famous household. This was an attempt to boost the Lamus families prestige and resources. During the ceremony Rolym was tasked with handling the rings and upon presenting them had tripped and fell on top of his sister Saura. Before Saura or Rolym could react their father rushed to the stage gripping Rolym by the throat and holding him in the air. The disappointment Rolym saw in his father's eyes and everyone present at the wedding was burned into his soul for eternity through his father's power.

Rolyms sight was taken from him, his eyes burned up in unnatural green flames created by his father and he was banished into the world with his family name no longer his own. That was the last Rolym ever heard from his family and his only reminder was the brutal scarring across his eyes. From the loss of his sight Rolym had found a new power, unique and powerful enough to give him back his sight. The day his father took his sight all Rolym could feel was the subtle breeze flowing all around him and the calmness it brought. He felt the wind around him, every direction it headed and every creature/object caught in its path. He has found his soul release, a new power which allowed him to not only see through the wind but control it. He spent the next 10 years in the forests where the wind wasn't blocked by man made buildings and cities. He trained and survived by harnessing this new skill in solitude. He could create, control and even become the wind. One day Rolym felt the presence of another creature unlike the natural beasts of the forest and went to see him. The person was named Argand, he showed kindness to Rolym and offered him a chance to work at a nearby farm for some coin and a place to stay. From being in a prestigious family to an outlander in the forest and now a clam farmer. Rolym wondered what adventures would be in store for him next.

### Arc 1: Pilot

#### "Clam-ity Delivery" (6x01)

Rolym first appears in the campaign tending to the clam farm. Without sight it took some time before Rolym was able to tend the farm just as well as the others. At the end of an average day farming Argand approached Rolym with a job opportunity to earn some cash. Rolym accepted and was excited for adventure and could use a change of scenery from the farm. The first hurdle was driving in a jeep to deliver something, Rolym hadn't been in a vehicle since losing his sight and not having the natural wind to rely on left Rolym terrified. Rolym suggested he could be tied to the top of the car instead but the party talked him out of it. During the trip the back door of the car opened slightly and closed, thinking nothing of it the party continued to drive. When stopping to refuel Rolym lunged out of the car and was embraced by the feeling of wind on his body, Rolym ignored the thought that this was only a short stop.

When checking the merchandise the party found that the cargo had been replaced by a fake. The party retraced their steps and found a building off the main road that seemed to be a warehouse of sorts. Upon infiltrating the base two member (Reaver and Vex) make their way through a locked security door thanks to Red's handy work. Reaver and Vex run into a number of armed guards and after failed negotiations they start firing a bullet hail at the duo...

#### "The Waiting Game" (6x02)

Rolym on the ground level of the warehouse hears bullets being fired below. He activates his Soul Release feeling the wind in every corner of the warehouse and notices Reaver and Vex sprinting back through the security door. Rolym brought the wind behind his fists and legs through punches and kicks at the armed guards. Rolym felt the bullets fly passed him some getting a little too close for comfort. The battle was won with Reaver taking a massive hit from one of the bullets, thanks to Lavi's medical knowledge he was patched up for now. The party went back underground and discovered the self proclaimed leader of the guards Yoruji. Rolym through a quick punch to catch Yoruji off guard but when Yoruji seemed un-phased Rolym decided it would be best not to fight this man. Yoruji ends up finishing off the final surviving guard that the party left alive and offers the party a job.

Yoruji reveals that he was the one who stole their cargo and offers to return it but only after he finishes analysing it. Rolym agrees seeing no scenario of winning a fight against Yoruji, Yoruji returns the cargo a few hours later and the party complete the job with no other issues.

#### "Scarlet Stains" (6x03)

Rolym's boss Argand announced that he was heading back to the Clam farm and transferred the money to the party before giving his farewells over text. Rolym realised that he didnt have his own bank account, being part of his family previously most things were provided to him without the need of money. The party helped Rolym to deposit his cash into a bank and receive a credit card that shrank or grew in size depending on how much money you had (or so Red had told him. Rolym and Red then went halves in buying a new car on the promise that Rolym would be able to drive it from time to time. Rolym then went back to Yoruji to gain more strength through jobs that he offered. Rolym needed all the training he could get before the Ninvi Daweas entrance exams. Yoruji give the party another mission which from his complicated explanation Rolym made out the words gang's leader Woxishi, take care of and 3 days.

A well-trusted contact of the organisation, Morphious also joined the group to assist them with the mission. The party began searching for the Scarlet Steels, the party split up and Rolym's job was to use his aura to sense the world around him looking for anyone stronger than normal. Vex and Lavi ended up being bait and in a few hours of roaming the ladies were jumped by a group of gang members. Rolym summoned his Kushaira to protect Lavi as she had taken some heavy blows. The rest of the party jumped into action quickly dealing with most of the gang members and keeping one alive. They questioned the remaining gang member and attempted to get information from him to continue the mission.

#### "Red Reaped" (6x04) + "Bananarama" (6x05)

Rolym was not at session for session 4 and 5 as player (CaramelBus) was absent. This is Rolym's side adventure.

Rolym in his adventures realised his limit to keeping his soul release active for long periods of time and the vulnerability that came when it would shut off in the middle of the most vital moment. Rolym heads back to the clam farm to work for a day with Argand and regain his confidence. He had some deep talks with Argand and realised that to become stronger he needed to train his senses other than sight. Rolym the headed to the forest to train his senses and to become a strong fighter without his soul release. He trained for a few days, gaining new senses of his surroundings and realised the what he needed to do. Rolym would conquer his fear of vehicles by being able to drive himself. Rolym went into town to get a motorbike though the shopkeeper felt uneasy about selling to him. Rolym sweetened the deal by adding an extra 1000 to the deal. Rolym was driving through the streets crashing and bashing into everything around him. As a last resort he activated his Soul Release and sweeped through the streets with ease as he used the wind to guide him through sharp turns. Rolym then took it too far and manipulated the wind around the bike allowing him to climb the side of a high rise building, leaving tread marks across the windows. He reached the top and with blind determination went to drive off the edge and glide through the sky...just as his aura ran out.... He plummeted and slammed through the neighbouring buildings windows and into a full casino of shocked guests and some familiar faces.

#### "The Bald and the Beautiful" (6x06)

Rolym re-joins the party by crashing into the 13th story of a high rise building which inured himself and damaged his new bike quite badly. Lavi does some quick healing on Rolym and the party is forced to leave after a near run in with the security of the building. Rolym is confused when he doesn't notice Reaver with the party and the party let Rolym know that Reaver had sadly passed away in a previous mission. Rolym meet the newest member of the party Sade and learns that a strange group of monks have been harassing the party looking for Sade. Rolym agrees to help Sade with his current mission of finding the monks and stopping them from deploying strange gates that affect the world around them. Rolym goes to a garage to have his bike repaired and the mechanic says it will be ready in about a day. The party then went looking for Sade's monk. After hours of searching a monk approaches Sade and reveals himself to be Shema. Rolym doesn't like this monk as he seems to talk high and mighty about using people like they are tools. The party agree to follow Shema to his hideout and it doesnt take long for a fight to break out. It was the party vs Shema and his monks and Juinn delivered the first blow with a punch straight to Shema. The conference room where the fight began didnt take long to turn into a bloody mess, the party took down Shema with ease and now the issue of escaping the building was at hand. The party walked out the way they came and it seemed like everyone was too busy to notice and they entered the open air. As the day had turned to night the party went to retire to a hotel.

#### "Riding with Easforal" (6x07)

The party retired to a cheap motel called the Monolith and slept for the night. The party told Rolym that the monks still had some gates active around them and Rolym agreed to find the gates and help the party take them down. Firstly Rolym was missing his Bike and went to go pick it up, for a large fee the mechanic fixed it all up and replaced some partys. Rolym took a quick drive around the block feeling the wind and avoiding some near misses from traffic, he was feeling whole again. The party took a quick stop at a nearby bookstore where Lavi did some personal digging for information and Rolym waited outside because...books weren't exactly his forte. The party then stumbled upon a gate and Rolym foolishly walked up to the gate to inspect it. The gate began to twist his mind and he became aggressive towards the nearby animals that also seemed to be affected by the gate. Rolym managed to channel the anger into the gate and with the help of some corrosive bullets from Lavi the gave was destroyed. Rolym took a second to shake off the feeling and Vex asked the party to assist her in finding the Green Rabbit Burrow. Rolym was having second thoughts until it was found that the party could take a airship to get there and Rolym was instantly happy to help. Rolym once on the airship took some time to do some shopping for new clothes. Rolym found a liking to the texture of a new suit and dark black glasses to replace his old ones, Rolym was looking like a man of high society once again. The Airship landed at Golden Abyss Station in Varora @ roughly 10:00pm and the city felt very different to Rolym with traces of aura spirits roaming around this city.

The city needed to be accessed via a tram ride which took some time due to Rolym's bike needing to go through a separate moving car. Once in the city the party decided to split up again to look for any indication of Vex's tip that the Green Rabbit Burrow were in this town. Rolym and Lavi went on his motorbike to search the streets with Rolym using Sense Aura and Lavi keeping an eye out for any shady characters. The rest of the party wandered the streets. Lavi noticed a commotion happening on a side street and Rolym parked the bike getting closer to investigate while Lavi contacted the rest of the party. Rolym decides the best attack method while waiting for the party would be a sneak attack. Rolym wanders straight past two men who seem to be breaking into a nearby building. Rolym plays the simple blind man disguise and the two attackers shrug off Rolym as a simple passer by however the second Rolym senses the rest of the party come into his range he whips up a wall of wind next to the attackers to blow them off their feet. Juinn joins the battle running at top speed and lays punch after punch on the attackers though....both Rolym's and Juinn's punches dont seem to be having the normal affect almost as if the blood in the enemies body was hardening. The two enemies were clearly not natural and landed heavy blows on the party and moved like nothing Rolym had seem. After a heavy fight Rolym managed to catch one of them with a side kick as he ran away, the kick sent the man barelling toward the building and he crashed against the stone bricks. Dead. The second man attempts to escape but Rolym's kushaira, Juinn and Vex rush after him and pin him to the ground.

#### "Remember to Wear a Squeakbelt" (6x08)

Rolym went to look at the building that was attacked while some of the other party members went to interrogate the Blood-Humanoid. However the Blood-Humanoid seemed to consumed something hidden in his mouth while Juinn and Vex were distracted. His body began to spasm, and rapidly misshape and violently contort before exploding as solidified blood spikes grow from his body - killing him. With their only lead gone and the chance of onlookers noticing the horrific scene the party decided to come back later to investigate in the morning. Rolym and the party returned to the apartment complex after sleeping in a nearby hostel, Rolym checked for any life signs in the building with his Sense Aura technique and located roughly 5 humans that were in the apartment complex. Rolym went through knocking down some doors without people in them to investigate and then went to speak to each of the humanoids he located. The best lead that Rolym came across was a small boy who provided information about some old man tried to get into his home, who was wrinkly and had weird hair. Rolym created a blade of wind and left it with the boy to trade for information and the party left. The last apartment that Rolym could sense aura from was a little different from the others, as soon as the door was opened the party saw a horrific giant rat standing at about 4ft tall. Something triggered in Juinn for him to unleash his kill instinct and in the blink of an eye Juinn leaped into the air and brought an elbow crashing down on the rats neck (talk about overkill). Rolym admired Juinns form, it was quick and efficient like an animal leaping on their prey.

Rolym headed back to meet Vex and she asked the party to assist her to find someone called Kason, sounded like another bad guy to catch to Rolym. Before investigating Rolym and the party agreed to find a mobile home to live in and the option of Rolym having somewhere to store his bike left him sold on the idea. They name the vehicle "The Highthpeed" in honour of the man that originally banded the group together, Rolym took a moment to miss his friend Argand and wonder what he would be up to on the clam farm. After the party asked around town about the Green Rabbit Burrow and Kason they find absolutely zero leads, the party decides to give up for the night and while they are heading back to The Highthpeed an armoured car pulls up next to them and all that greets them from the windows is multiple firearms (guess they caught someone's attention). Rolym summons a wall of wind between the car and the other members of the party to protect from future shots and jumps on the car delivering blows to the top but it barely dented the vehicle. Rolyms keep punching until they go down technique wasnt too useful here but Vex and Sade used their powers to destroy the steering. Rolym dismisses the wind wall and the car begins to spin out of control, as the car was about to crash Rolym jumped off and using the momentum to swing from a nearby lamppost and land a devastating kick to another one of the men. The rest were dispatched by the party with ease which left one of the thugs alive, lets hope he has a good explanation for his actions as his life depends on it. Rolym enjoyed that fight as a nice chance of pace from searching and was ready to question the men who pulled guns on him and his friends.

#### "RIP Vine" (6x11)

Rolym was not at session for session 11 as player (CaramelBus) was absent. This is Rolym's side adventure.

Rolym felt conflicted about a quest that involved capturing monsters as during Rolym's 10 year isolation in the forest he learned to respect nature and only to hunt for food. The client for the bounty seemed to want the animals as mere prizes which resulted in Rolym apologising to the party and leaving the group until the mission was done. Rolym took his bike to the Green Rabbit Burrow to look if any more handy gadgets/upgrades for his gauntlets. Rolym entered through the butcher shop front and went to the underground markets that were busier than usual, though what caught Rolyms ear was how much gunfire seemed to be echoing through the markets. Rolym out of instinct activated his SR ready to defend himself but through sensing the wind the bullets were all making contact with targets and not people (thankfully) and one of the men firing boasted to himself "these new firearms are sure to make my job easier!". Rolym was enticed by the accuracy and firepower of these guns and decided to take this opportunity to see what there was on offer, Rolym walked on up to the seller of these weapons and asked to test fire a few which the man was happy to oblige. Rolym fired a few types of weapons and settled on a lovely item called FN Herstal SMG and also took two frag grenades as well. After Rolym had purchased the new gear a lady who was looking over at Rolym came up to him and invited him to an underground racing competition that was being held tonight. The race seemed a little strange at first as any type of vehicle was allowed but Rolym was far too excited and agreed on the sport before she could finish explaining. Rolym paid a K500 entry fee and went over to the mechanic to make sure his bike was in top condition, the mechanic fixed Rolym up with new tyres, changed the oil and gave it a dark blue paint finish for K500.

The race came and Rolym met at the agreed upon location where there was a large group of people cheering and partying. This was more extravagant than Rolym was initially thinking with stores, music and even a light show. Rolym lined up at the starting line and activated his SR before entrancing the wind to look at the competitions vehicles, it was at this point Rolym realised how under prepped he was as most vehicles in the race were trucks with a high amount of weaponry attached. The race began and everyone was speeding through the course with bullets flying, Rolym managed to snake his way through the carnage on his motorbike and avoid the large trucks trying to smash him against the sides of the track. After 3 laps Rolym managed to come first in the competition and won a hefty K3000, Rolym had found a love for the sport and the lady from before offered him a spot in the main events race for an entry fee of K2000 but with a grand prize of K30000. Rolym checked in with the party who said the quest would be taking a bit longer and agreed to race again. Two races in one night for a first timer was quite unheard of and the crowd had taken a liking to him which also meant the other racers saw Rolym as more of a target. The main event began and Rolym was up on the starting line, this race had about 30 participants and surprisingly some were sporting motorbikes much like Rolym but much better quality. The race began and suddenly smoke materialised directly infront of every vehicle blocking their sight which luck for Rolym wasn't a technique that affected him. Both Rolym and another racer on a motorbike were leading the pack and the racer looked over angrily at Rolym before pulling out a SMG and firing. Rolym managed to pull back dodging the bullet rain but had given up first place to the racer. The winner of this race seemed like it would be Rolym or the other motorbike racer and after a long back and forth Rolym came up a close second with the other motorbike racer winning. Rolym went to congratulate the racer but they had long left with their prize money, Rolym won K15000 for coming second.

Rolym spent the rest of the night enjoying the festivities that the race hub had to offer and in the early morning left to find a place to sleep, the best he could find was the top of a high rise building which he took his motorbike and flew up to the sleep for the night. By about 10am Rolym got a message from from the rest of the party saying that they were heading to hand in the animals to the buyer and he should meet them there. Rolym tried to discreetly fly down from the roof with his bike and make his way to regroup with party which was luckily only an hour away, but as Rolym started his bike and began to drive he heard the echo of a Drakevision vehicle behind him that pulled him over. Rolym was desperate to think of a story to come up with while the officer walked up to Rolym, He asked for his license and registration to which Rolym reluctantly agreed and was surpirsed how un-phased the officer was about him flying around in broad daylight, maybe by some luck the officer didn't see. Rolym handed over his license and registration and the officer took quite a while to look over the documents. The officer asked if Rolym knew a man named Viserion which left Rolym stunned, he had a grandfather named Viserion but hadn't spoken to him in 10 years. Rolym told the officer that he had a grandfather named Viserion that was part of the Ninvi Dawaes and the officer introduced himself as Xavier. That name was familiar, Viserion had a friend called Xavier that used to babysit Rolym when he was little and the two recognised each other (what a lucky break from a ticket). Xavier was shocked as he had believed that Rolym was dead, Rolym explained that he was currently hiding from his family and couldn't reveal that he was still alive despite hearing of Viserion's grief. Curious to learn more Xavier chose to accompany Rolym to meet the party and before Rolym could say yes or no, Xavier threated to give him a ticket and lock him up if he said no. Together they headed to meet the party and explained how life had been treating them along the way.

## Relationships

### Master Lamus (FATHER)

Ornov Lamus is the head of the Lamus family and always dresses in piercing white robes with dark green outlining (A symbol of his devotion to the Lamus Family). He is a notoriously strict teacher but an even stricter father, he sees his children as future tools to benefit his families reputation rather than living beings. Rolym being the slowest to learn Aura was the disappointment of the Lamus family which earned him extra attention from Ornov. Ornov would have Rolym study every night till the morning until he awakened his soul release. For Orlov the incident at the wedding was the perfect chance to banish Rolym as an inferior Aura user so no one would question his teaching methods or the family name.

### Teysna (DRAGON KUSHAIRA)

A Kushaira spirit shaped as a silver dragon owned by a member of the Ninvi Daweas. Rolym first met Teysna while training his aura in the forest. Teysna helped further develop Rolym's aura and Rolym was determine to become one with the wind much like the mighty dragon. Through their time together Teysna told Rolym that he was being scouted to join a powerful organisation the Ninvi Daweas but would still need more battle experience to survive the missions he would be sent on. Rolym was will to do whatever it took to get stronger but this was also an opportunity to show his family that he deserves the Lamus name.

### Viserion (GRANDFATHER)

Viserion is a large muscular man who sits at one of the highest ranks of the Ninvi Dawaes group. He wields his two greatswords in combat with his favoured sword being Kotetsu, he has used this swords to slay many manner of brutish/legendary creatures. Viserion used to babysit Rolym briefly when he was young and would teach Rolym some basics of combat. Rolym looks up to Viserion as what a true warrior should strive to be and much prefers the company of Viserion compared to his father Ornov, even before the accident. Viserion spends most of his time working after the passing of his wife and when he isn't protecting the innocent/slaying evil beasts he will be polishing his sword.
