## Biography

### Early Life

Born into existence by his father and mother Zachary Castellan and Rowan Boat in the Atoan province of Athiel. From a young age, he had taken an interest in exploring the vast world of Rathnir, so to fufill this urge, he commonly went on adventures with his best friend Ghoul. Eventually, he stumbled upon Makkis, after explaining that he was Zachary's son, he showed him around the then Kingdom of Ato and her cities.

By the time he was around ten years of age, the Kingdom of Ato was greeted with certain war with the recently formed nation Leveros, a nation formed from the coup of Severos. With this in mind, he asked to be sent to war. Denied because of his age, he decided to sneak in to see the following events happen. Before his eyes, he witnessed countless of his Atoan Brethren slain by Elzaress and her goons. Scarred by this, he immediately hurried back to Athiel and locked himself in his room for days. When he eventually came out, he was greeted with surprisingly good news. We had won the war with the help of neighboring nations, and Ato's will power. Due to this, the four nations that participated decided to merge. This created The Grand Sorligste Federation, a powerful nation lead by Shark and his two shoulders.

At the age of 13, after the formation of The GSF, and the loss of his friends and brethren, Blue had decided to go on a search to meet people around the large nation. He ended up in Windcliff finding a boy named Morteli, after talking for a bit, they had taken a liking to eachother, finding that they had lots in common. Morteli eventually asked Blue if he would like to come to his home country. Blue foolishly optimistic even after being scarred agreed to this. Little did he know, this would be one of the most life changing events in his life.

### First Imperial Crimson Lotuses

After Blue agreed, Morteli opened a small gateway that allowed them to both travel to Morteli's homeland with ease. Blue astonished by this portal that Morteli had just created, jumped in without even thinking first. When Blue came out the other side, he saw an incredibly lively city that looked ancient, yet modern at the same time. Morteli with a grin welcomed Blue to Amarillo, Blue was absolutely dumbfounded by this incredible place. He immediately asked Morteli to show him around, Morteli agreed immediately.

After touring the Lotus lands of Azul and Amarillo, Morteli invited Blue to meet with his father. They headed through the council building and eventually found themselves in Horteli's office, Morteli's father. Horteli, being the Grand Master of the Crimson Lotuses immediately saw Blue's potential after realizing that Blue has the Lotus gene (which physically makes him connected to the Lotus lands). Horteli almost instantly introduced himself and invited Blue to join The Crimson Lotuses. Blue hesitated at first but thought it through and decided that this could be the way for him. They agreed upon something that would work for Blue and The Crimson Lotuses. Blue would be able to use the main portal to freely travel between Athiel and the Lotus lands. And so they burned the Crimson Lotus into his hands, marking him as one of them.

Blue had just reached the one year mark in his career as a Crimson Lotus. The Lotus Council had taken a liking to him and had realized his potential because of his Lotus gene. They decided to promote him to Royal Minister, putting him just one rank away from Lotus Council. This meant he would now be able to participate in less important council meetings but not have much of a voice in the situations.

During one of these council meetings, there was a loud what sounded like a thunder strike outside of the council building. Blue and the other council members rushed outside to see what was happening. When they looked up, they saw a huge portal and a sky that was blood red, and clouds that looked like dark voids. Looking around, the lotuses and greenery were withering away, this was the presence of an anti god. The people on the surface were being attacked by what looked like red bats with tumors growing out of their limbs. The council immediately ordered the army to defend against the hellish beasts. Horteli and Morteli both geared up to join the army in their fight against the beasts, Morteli knowing of his certain doom gave Blue his trenchcoat named "The Time Watchers Coat". Blue along with the other council members were rushed inside the safe house to protect them. The wizards of the council attempted to open a portal large enough for all of them, but because of the anti god's presence, their magic power was reduced to less than a quarter of what it is usually. The council had to decide who they wanted to let through the portal, they gave the future of The Crimson Lotuses to three individuals. These three individuals were Connor, Queens, and Blue, they hesitated but eventually gave in. As they jumped into the portal, they saw the safe house crumble before them and the council being crushed to death by the rubble.

They had all ended up in different places scattered around the world. Connor ended up in Bardonia, Queens ended up in Yimmu Audal, and Blue had ended up in Aldovir.

### Fall of the Grand Sorligste Federation

After the Crimson Lotuses fell before Blue's eyes, Blue had to find a way back home to The Grand Sorligste Federation. He travelled through the lands of Aldovir eventually ending up in Lirgal. In Lirgal, he met two people that would change his future, these two people are no other than Aldara Ellan and Nitlovis "Spacer" Tliavan. They would show him around Lirgal and tell him of their culture. After they showed Blue around, Blue told Aldara Ellan that he would seek out for Lirgal when The Grand Sorligste Federation will eventually fall.

Upon returning home to Athiel he was greeted with her citizens packing their bags and getting ready to head to Yimmu Audal. He asked around and eventually learned that The GSF is no longer and is merging with Frostmarch. This was because of the return of Leveros and this time, Uldarash was backing them. Blue confused and not knowing what to do at this point decided that he would leave Sørligste and head right back to Aldovir.

He sent a letter to Aldara Ellan informing her that his nation has fallen and with her permission, he will be coming to Lirgal.

### In Lirga

With Aldara's permission, Blue travelled back to Lirgal. Arriving in Lirgal he was greeted by NItlovis, Ellira, and Aldara, immediately they got him set up in an apartment.
