Role
Gift From Beyond
Added Mon Apr 12 10:17:27 2021 at level 17:
Once in a harvest moon when the pathways between planes weaken, a pulse of
celestial energy breaks from the Azure Fields and finds its way down to Thera
to fuse with a young human soul. This host becomes chosen by fate to become a
hybrid, a heavenly combination called an Azure-touched.
On this night, the body of a young baby girl would change forever. Her
parents, Voralian citizens that were suddenly overrun by the prying attention
of a large intrusive community, hastily moved their home and lives to the
Silverpine Village. It is here that Miraja would call home and grow up...
horribly alone and ostracized for her own protection.
Showing a gift for magic at a young age, every aspect and incantation came
easily with her celestial gifts. Feeding the growing need to connect, she
would beg her parents for books and would scour over every lesson book a
friendly retired professor would give. She had still not yet met one of her
kind when one day a strange package arrived.
Bound in golden wrapping paper with a simple red lace string, the gift had a
note atop addressed to Miraja. "Your life is a gift but you will need to
pivot to better help our corrupt world. To see from far and beyond, where
what is not seen is seen, and to go wherever you desire you need only conjure
from a better source. Call upon your kind to join from the Azure Plains and
bring them here. - Thera's Benefactor, Bazii the Advisor". Flabbergasted at
the gaudy gift, she unraveled it against her parents wishes to find a book,
the largest she had ever seen, and on the binding it only read "Khardrath".
Friends At All Cost
Added Mon Apr 12 10:19:09 2021 at level 17:
Every day and night she would read and reread this book. When her progress
continued, another book would arrive and then another all from this unknown
mysterious Bazii. Soon she had a small library collection as she learned
every facet of the extraplanar, the layers of the Planes and gifts waiting to
be pulled from beyond. It always felt strange, a nagging feeling in the back
of her mind, a permanent unease but she wanted to be with her kind... no, she
needed it and yearned for others that would understand.
Her local teacher, an old retired professor of the Tower, could no longer
help her and was trying to research why he had never heard of an
Azure-touched conjurer when he passed away unexpectedly in his sleep. With
the death of a friend, Miraja decided it was time to call upon her first ally
- her familiar. Her books detailed the ritual in exhaustive detail and as she
laid out the required reagents, she felt once again like something was wrong
but in mourning she pushed forward.
As she uttered the final words, the prophetic caw of an overly large Fellcrow
echoed through the village and surrounding forest. Not hearing any of this
while entranced, she softly commanded "Come forward kin and let us embrace."
Presents Come In All Shapes and Sizes
Added Mon Apr 12 10:19:50 2021 at level 17:
"Oooooooooohhh YEaaah! Bazzi, you brilliant devious bastard, you're getting
tenfold in our deal!"
A wave of sulphurous stench rolled over the room as a small devilish imp
unceremoniously plopped into existence onto the wooden floor. Dusting off his
paws, he quickly began to joyfully stroll around the room to take stock of
his surroundings.
Jumping back in utter terror, Miraja mumbled "This.... this isn't possible.
Wha-... how are you here!?" The imp cackled loudly. "Oh meatsack, you got
bamboozled, cheated, flimflammed! You're screwed darling because you didn't
conjure up a familiar... you made yourself one." His sharp little teeth
grinned as he locked eyes with her to watch her reaction.
In pure panic, Miraja lunged for the door hoping to run away but suddenly
couldn't move - her whole body locked and tensed as she thudded onto the
floor. As she slowly fought against this magic and tried to turn her wrathful
gaze to the imp, he walked into view with a slight giggle.
"Yeaaaaaah, you're mine now. Welcome to servitude, your contract isssss
forever. There's a simple reason none of your kind dabbles in conjuration...
you're too strong and the Gods hate fighting fair and that prettttty little
warmth inside is a greaaaat battery for my permanency. "
Her bones suddenly started to become increasingly cold, like ice sprouted
from within her skeleton and robbed her of her soul. She howled and twitched
in convulsing pain but no breath or sound escaped her imprisoned lips. The
light of her eyes began to dim, and as she began to fall unconscious as the
world turned black she heard the imp approach confidently.
"And that's Master Azvameth, get used to saying that. In your own
self-righteous words, come forward slave and let us embrace." A swift
paw-kick to the head and she was out but her nightmare wouldn't end when she
awoke.
Quick Info Recap
Added Mon Apr 12 10:20:53 2021 at level 17:
= Miraja is an imprisoned azure-touched woman that has had her connection to
the Azure Plains drained from her body. Dabbling in conjuration which is
forbidden for her kind, she was tricked into not conjuring a familiar but
becoming a familiar that is eternally bound to her new master. She cannot
respond or react without his instruction and her only moments of freedom are
when he is killed or temporarily sent back to the Depths (but even then she
is terrified of his return if she angers him).
= Azvameth, or Master Azvameth as he prefers, is an imp who always wanted
more. A lowly recordkeeper of taxes in the Iron City of Dis, he weaseled his
way into communication with Bazii, the tax collector and advisor to the
Sultan who wanted a deal with a devil but only got an impl. Agreeing to give
Bazii better contract terms upon his death, the rich tax collector
orchestrated a masterful series of events to trick, isolate and control
Miraja and her family. Using the Sultan's wealth to conscript commoners to
harass them to flee Voralia, hiring assassins to kill any azure-touched or
humble saint which would approach Silverpine and even removing her
troublesome professor friend, the perfect stage was set for Azvameth (never
mess with the tax man!). Providing a twisted spell for his prey to cast which
only an azure-touched could, he now has absolute control of his new familiar.
= Azvameth is enjoying his new life on Thera and really doesn't enjoy going
back to where he came from. He always wants more - to experience what others
experience, to gather vast amounts of power, to lord it over others... and
after being surrounded by such power in the Depths that wasn't his, he wants
what everyone in Thera had the chance to acquire but now it is his turn.
Plans, Schemes and Expansion
Added Mon Apr 19 12:21:18 2021 at level 27:
Azvameth lazily lounged about in the darkened meeting room. Lying on his back
along the brim of an obsidian slab chair, he noted for the future that the
Chasm needed some better ambiance with maybe a ruby torch or two... a
personal addition to make it feel like home. Raising up slightly on his
elbows, he did a quick mental check on Miraja - she was still in the
conjuration room above working on bringing forth another demon. He could
sense she was hungry but he liked waiting until it became painful for her.
Cackling to himself, Azvameth fondly thought of all the power gained and how
he would use it to get what he wanted.
Getting into the Chasm was simple enough, his competition was woefully
unprepared and lacking the brains to pull it off. The Advisor wasn't too
pleased about him ruining her game creation and tried pouring on the guilt
that would save the others but Azvameth felt no remorse. The others had their
time, years in fact, to impress and win over someone that only took him a few
lies and a handful of carefully planned moments. Mortals were so
predictable...
Azvameth suddenly sat up and began to pace in mid-air. Immortals were his
next problem. He had found the treasure room of Skreenak and attempted to
contact the god but with little luck. Skreenak had pulled off the impossible,
or at least improbable, and Azvameth knew to get what he desired he would
need such a visionary. What deal he would propose and contract he would imply
could possibly throw away his victory to this point.... He needed to be extra
careful against another one who enjoyed being underestimated.
Then there was Morius. The Advisor would likely not shut up about heading to
the Church and meeting her god so Azvameth had gone there to pay a visit...
and got a bit too close to his own end. The vice lord hadn't exactly enjoyed
his gift and now Azvameth was stuck trying to figure out what to do next. To
continue forward and eventually take the Chancellor position, he knew it
would need to be something special. He could try to get the information out
of Azorinne they had discussed but that didn't inspire and information could
be so boring it could get him killed.
Realizing he was stuck on problems and not enjoying himself as he should, he
checked on Miraja again for a little soul boost. She had passed out along the
floor in exhaustion, her hands covered in chalk - a little blood dripped from
her lips from the meat they sold down here. She had eaten and he had never
given the order! How did sh-...
Flying out of the meeting room, Azvameth made a note to not leave her alone
for long in these darkened halls because someone was beginning to pay
attention where they shouldn't.
The Perfect Season
Added Fri May 7 19:47:28 2021 at level 32:
Skipping along the Eastern Road with a dark twinkle in his eye, Azvameth led
his merry band towards Galadon. The road and the wild had become a welcome
home as he confidently bounced along without a care. The world had been cured
of stupidity, tribute demanded and they had all fled before his power.
Despite the rather large gathering of mercenaries, demons, elementals,
nightwalkers and Miraja struggling to catch up to their Master, he believed
it was always him alone they feared.
Stopping in a small little grove of trees to let the demon feed upon a baby
deer or three, Azvameth ordered Miraja to produce the contract from
Vizgrathol. Staring at it intently yet again, he tried to find any loopholes,
hidden meanings, invisible ink or reasons why Vizgrathol would want extended
time with Miraja. More than a few had wanted to know more about his familiar
- the Sunwarden and Harbinger had promised to save her at all costs, while
Alithar and others of the Fortress swore to break the "curse". He chuckled to
himself at all the attention this "meatbag" was getting but love was in the
air... he snorted loudly. Vizgrathol didn't want flesh, and with him now
being Advisor, he didn't trust him but knew he would have to give in to
something. If he wanted time to talk with her, why not.
Ripping a flower from the ground, Azvameth flew off down the road towards
Galadon with the intent on approaching the Church of Morius. He had a series
of gifts to bestow and favor to gain if he was going to become the first imp
Chancellor. Skreenak had said "Do whatever is necessary to become leader"...
which reminded him that both gods would be good advisors to consult about
this contract.
Stopping to hire a hapless elven mercenary to let Morius have some fun, the
felar shopkeeper thoughtless replied "Enjoy the help - tis the perfect season
to hire help for cleaning!"
Uncontrollable laughter took over Azvameth as the elf began to cower in
terror next to the towering morosa demon staring him down. Unable to
restrain the need for some fun, he ordered Miraja to release the bindings.
"Perfect season is right... TAX SEASON!" The dying screams of the quickly
devoured elf echoed through the city and no one dared to investigate.
Grumpy Imp and Old Familiar
Added Mon Jun 28 21:56:54 2021 at level 51:
A sonorous blood-curdling snore, with highlights of gargling and squawking
mixed with terrifying pauses, echoed through the Chasm. Miraja was attempting
to sleep but her once youthful beauty of a body had aged to a wilted husk
that was comically depressing for most to be around. Azvameth rested on her
chest making it that much harder to sleep, but when sometimes he would
sadistically pinch her nose and mouth to watch her squirm for air, tonight
was not the time for such entertainment.
Ever since Azvameth had figured out the trick to drain Miraja further of her
heritage, the imp had basked in his new found power. No longer at the whims
to return Below from intimidating side glances or crumbling to an uttered
power word, Azvameth would now strut over his claim to Thera with pride. The
world had learned to cower upon his arrival and his name alone was enough to
strike fear into the abandoned. Dominating the local peasants in the realm's
arena competition only solidified that Azvameth was not only to be respected,
but demanded tribute less you risk his boredom. A bored imp with limitless
power is a fear to behold.
It was only after years of enjoying the reign, and literal rain, of blood
that Azvameth came to notice that Miraja was having a harder time keeping up.
A little slower in her step, whimpering more than normal and then none at
all; her lifeless eyes were now mostly immune to the pain. She was getting to
be old and the infusing of Skreenak's power had helped slow the rate of decay
but he was now realizing ever more he was on the clock and she was watching
silently time slip away until she was free.
His Herald spy, Calithildir, had given him the information he needed to find
another host by questioning Azorinne. The imp needed to get this to Morius to
concoct a path... Azvameth needed to find a way to conjure a large enough
threat to Thera which in turn would raise the number of azure called to
respond. Within these new children was his next familiar. His enemies were
working against him, attempting to free Miraja, and he knew it was only a
matter of time until they or time itself succeeded.
Azvameth rose up and threw another trinket into the donation bowl at the
church of Morius. As much as he hated this, Skreenak's advice was always
right: do whatever is necessary to move forward. With a swift kick into
Miraja's side, the old couple walked out into the world with the shadows
following behind.
