Alexus De'Barbri

Alexus has a mixed history, she was originally was born in Cressidia under the reign of the black beach corsairs who killed her father (human). There she lead a simple life as a tailor in a small fishing town on the coast. Her father a poor artist with a depressive state never made enough money to support them both, Alexus helped make ends meet with her tailoring skills she learned from the generous lady next door as a child. During her teenage years she found a discarded healing tome in a garbage pile which sparked her first ounce of curiosity for magic
and proceeded to use her father as her first subject as he had cut his hand. With her first success with healing she added this to her services and was hired by the local temple as a part-time
healer/apprentice with the added bonus of learning about curative and
poisonous herbs.

Alexus asked her father many times who was her mother but her father refused to answer her all he would tell her was after Alexus was born her mother left
without saying anything or a note but left only a strange necklace to pass to alexus when she was old enough.

One dark night after a glorious victory over the rebels known as THE BLACK POWDER BRIDGADE,

drunk and high on good spirits The Black Beach Corsairs decided to sack the small fishing town Alexus and her father was living. There they rounded up all of the towns people and selected ten to be put to the sword for their entertainment. Unfortunately Alexus's father was one of them. In a stockyard turned into a makeshift arena there the ten people were given swords and were paired with a battle harden corsair to
fight for their life’s. Alexus's father realizing that he could not win before it was his turn he turned to Alexus and told her he was
sorry for all the hardships he had put her through and told her to continue on and live life to the fullest and that he loved her. Then an inpatient corsair pushed Alexus's father into the stockyard and he was cut down without even putting up a fight.

Alexus was shocked by this event and ran as fast as she could with tears filling up her eyes and rage in her heart at the corsairs for what they had done.

For months she wondered all over Cressidia without a purpose, without hope. Due to exhaustion and hunger she fainted on the side of a road where she was found by The Black Powder Brigade. Her natural born ability with magic and an unusual gift of learning (presumably from her mothers side) allowed her to ingrate quickly to the brigade’s militia organization surpassing all expectations and rising in rank quickly. Her motivation for joining them was to avenge her fathers death.

During her training she met a dwarven trader but the name of Tristrum he was trading goods to the brigade. One night she was siting by the fire she was given a drink by Tristrum and he told her that it was a good drink that helped accelerate the healing process and he wanted Alexus's opinion before he sold it to the brigade, she took a big gulp of the drink and became groggy, disorientated and passed out.The following morning Tristrum had told her that she was legally bound by matrimony to him, she asked why would he do such a thing he said he saw the potential to make a profit out of Alexus's ability’s; she threaten to divorce him and they broke out into an argument. As Tristrum left the camp he said don't worry about being with me i'll meet you when you get to Estra then we can make some real profit.

Months Later after joining, on her first campaign to Estra her commanding officer Captain Bass died from his extensive wounds, but due to his gods power and will, he became a wraith with a single mind set to kill all corsairs out for rage and anger.

 Alexus's commanding officers made a plan to resurrect Captain Bass after extensive research in to a specific tree on Estra. During their time at Estra (quest 2016) using a strange form of necromancy using a corsair as a sacrifice offered to a tree and summoning a friendly spirit to guide the captain back to the land of the living. After the resurrection of Captain Bass was successful and Alexus felt rather strange she felt a longing for something dark and bloody. During the celebrations of Captain Bass's new found life Alexus was sharpening her sword, she
slipped and cut her hand but instead of the usual pain it was pleasurable.

The return home to
Cressidia was a long one filled with a happy journey until they
arrived in their camp. Instantly all of the commanding officers were
arrested as well as alexus on charges of use of Necromancy. The
trials were long and drawn out as if the officials in charge of black
powder brigade wanted to make an example of the small group for
disobeying orders. For Alexus, her punishment was to be solely responsible for command. This weighed heavily on her. Feeling the
stress of this responsibility she choose to leave and find her mother and an answer to her new found desires for pain and blood shed. It was while on this journey to and through Estra that she met up with
the rogues and joined them as an extra sword as she was on good terms with them.

It was not long before her life turned upside down again as she felt the call of the Senka, an awakening, a coming ceremony opened her eyes, her heart and mind, to her true self, her family, Kin, Senka.
