## Story

Jardyn was originally part of a friend group which called themselves the Garage Junkies (after the name of a social media server which, in their youth, was the online meeting place of several great influencers of culture several generations prior), part of an interconnected network of gamers, nerds, geeks, weebs, and other such dedicated content fans, all of whom came together to reinstate the global availability of knowledge and connection, starting in the best way they knew how: nerd stuff. Upon the HAVEN's release, however, the network dispersed, and each group would be left to fend and prepare for themselves, which made it so that many dispersed. This was the case for Jardyn, who ultimately left the group (this was little more than a pretense to fool any eavesdroppers online), and forged ahead on his own into the vast world of the HAVEN (a vast, expansive, and fully immersive one-way ticket into a techno-fantasy world where you would choose to live for as long as the Codex (the primary MacGuffin of the world, said to contain the answer to everything and ability to anything) remained unfound).

He named his character Ardez for no particular reason, then carefully plotted out what his initially equipped 9 items would be: 3 combat tools, 3 artifacts, 3 skills. Most would pick generally non-dangerous, survival-based items that ranged from simple to common to uncommon, such as an endless water, food, & stone satchel, some decent magic armor, and some uniquely overpowered skills. One would essentially be starting from scratch and surviving based on capability alone (with the risk of death ever-looming, since death in this world equated to death in reality), which most players took to mean "simple, but godlike". Jardyn, however, went the opposite route, and meticulously crafted the aforementioned sets of tools, Artifacts, & Skills.Rather than beginning to search for the Codex (the primary MacGuffin of the world, said to contain the answer to everything and ability to anything), he went to a guild and began earning money. Over time, after many jobs and a lot of work, he formed a reasonably popular smithy called the Cobbler's in a settling town Midwol. For over 6 years Jardyn spent his time in Midwol, learning of all Creator Skills, as well as becoming versed in many manners of weaponry, magic, and nature, which finally allowed him access to his maxxed skills, artifacts, and weapons. This changed when Midwol was attacked by a seemingly wild Force of Darkness horde, which burned down the Cobbler (thankfully nothing of value was lost, as Jardyn took all belongings and the original copy of the Cobbler on a Saving Stone), and, after decimating the horde, left his hometown under the protection of a friendly patron, his grandson, and a pair of specially crafted magic maces, setting out as a simple traveler with nothing more than a large claymore and ample supplies, but carrying the weight, power, and strength of thousands of gods.

After reaching the Underwall Colosseum, he discovers some of his old Garage friends, who have made a living working in the Mid-Rank section, both in the marts and in combat. Gabrihal Mercerander (Hilbert) & Adriano Jalkont (Aydn) were top of the Mid-Rank as Bludgeoner & Summoner, while Maverik Osadihd (Oserion), Vinchento Yutterez  (Vince), Alito Manor (Lyndo), Samothy Gutierez (Muul) were well-known Artisans, Beast-Tamers, Businessmen, & Merchants at the Mid-Rank state within the Colosseum. Upon greeting Jardyn and hearing of his higher GPL (General Player Level, showing overall growth of player) of 21 (their highest was 18 in Gabrihal, although Jardyn lied as his level was actually 786 due to many quests, raids, jobs, & other such accomplishments across his half-decade abscence), they encouraged him to enter into the Colosseum as a combatant, since he was (by his own facetious word) an Adventurer. He took them up on this and immediately challenged the top High-Rank champion, beating them easily with Orbitrax the Encoded Jaggklev, another signature weapon he had developed. The top 5 Ultimate Rank fighters met a similar but more difficult defeat at the hands of Jardyn, after which he set out to a dungeon within the caverns of a nearby mountain on the surface.
