## Background

Azurial was born in the celestial plane, a descendant of the Gods he was gifted with powers beyond most. He lived without fear or caution for as long as he lived within the celestial plane no physical harm could befall him.

In his 13th birth year he was out exploring the outer reaches of his birth city of Stosak where he came across an elderly man wondering through the forest along. Seeing Azurial he cried out to him begging for his help, a powerful dragon had been terrorizing his village and
taken his children hostage. The man lead Azurial to an old abandoned cave where the dragon had made it's lair. Azurial reassured the old man that he would soon be back with his children and rushed into the cave weapon drawn. Excitement and adrenaline built he would finally get the opportunity to prove his strength and save the day. As his eyes adjusted to the light in the cave he looked around to see know sign of a dragon but instead a large portal on the floor of the cave. On alert he circled the portal once ready to pounce should the dragon emerge. A minute past and Azurial, who was frustrated at the distinct lack of dragon, found himself joined by the elderly man. The elderly man spoke "Have you found my children? Can you see them on the other side of this portal?". Insisting he inspect closer for signs, Azurial bent down to check. It was then the old man struck. With lightning fast speed and incredible force he pushed Azurial through the portal. Azurial passed through the portal and was immediately hit with a feeling of queasiness as he found himself somewhere new, somewhere strange and most importantly 60ft in the air.

Instinct kicked in, he called forth his wings and slowed his descent. Turning in the sky his eyes grew wide as he witnessed the man transformed from feeble and old into a powerful large green dragon. To Azurials dismay he watched the portal closed shut. Anger rising at being tricked he began flying at full speed towards the oncoming dragon weapon raised. He launched into a flurry of blows striking the dragon repeatedly across the head. To Azurials annoyance the dragon just laughed and swiped at Azurial with a singular claw attack. Azurial was sent flying and brought crashing to the ground. This was the first time he had truly felt fear. He could feel his blood leaving his body, his vision beginning to blur. Panic set in, he had been tricked and he was vulnerable. He pleaded to the sky for someone, anyone to help him. Helpless he watched as the dragon landed and moved in for the kill. As the dragon came in for the final kill, closing its jaws, Azurial closed his eyes and prepared for the end. A second went by and Azurial, who was extremely confused at why he was not currently dead, opened his eye to see an aura around him shielding him from the dragons attacks. He watched as a group of twelve knights came riding into view, each dressed in fine silver armor brandishing the coat of arms of a platinum coloured dragon. He watched in awe as the knights leapt into action diving off the dragon and while knights heroically risked their lives Azurial fainted.
When Azurial awoke he was greeted by the Knights. They explained that they were Knights of the Order of Bahamut and that he had arrived in Tarrion. The knights were sworn to protect the King of Tarrion and keep the faith of Bahamut. Having seen there strength and bravery it was then and there Azurial became a member of their order, vowing one day to return home if he could but not before he had fulfilled his debt to Bahamut and had slain the green dragon.

Three years later Azurial set out from Tarrion in the hope to find answers of how he might return home. He set off to join the fabled Archaeology guild of Ilbidor, he had heard tales of ancient artifacts that had the power to traverse planes and hoped to find out more.
