History
Azik was only 7 months old when Juniper found him. She was walking through Rynok at night when she heard crying. She followed the cries down an ally and down a tunnel. There, she discovered a baby wrapped in a cloth with a scar on its cheek. It had a not pined to the cloth, but it only had a name. Azik Farenfir.
Juniper, without a second thought, took Azik home with her and decided she would inquire the police the next day. After weeks of investigation, the Police returned to say that Azik's parents left no trace. Juniper decided that the only thing to do was to care for Azik as her own.
By the age of 9, Azik was wondering the Marketplace when a man coxed him to follow him away from onlookers to a secluded house. There, Azik discovered that the man was a notorious slave trader and was on the look for fresh wares. The man battered Azik and strapped him to a broken electrocuting chair.
Azik screamed with such force that he mentally triggered Telekinesis and pushed the man back, but didn't stop him. Azik began to drift into sleep from the sudden exhaustion when a man dashed inside and slashed the tormentor's throat. Azik awoke in his room, covered in bandages. He noticed that his sight had blurred. Due to the trauma to the brain due to the mental attack.
Azik noticed that the same man who saved him was in his room. He introduced himself as Balios, A leader of a band of thieves. When he departed, Azik decided that he would join the thieves. And two days later, he found Balios and requested to join. He was obviously refused at first for being too young. Though he persisted. Balios eventually caved under the condition that Azik would shut up for 2 months.
7 years later of rigorous training, thefts and heists, Azik had become a renowned thief amongst his peers. He started to become friends with the tactician of the thieves, A Beastfolk Owl called Sevir. Sevir could sense potential in Azik. So, he offered to teach him magic. Azik eagerly accepted.
2 years passed, and Azik had developed Time magic. He used his new skill in his missions, and has not failed a mission since. One day, news arrived that Sevir had gone missing. He was soon found being held in a prison cell and was getting less then desirable care. Last night, a squad of officers patrolling came across Sevir. They began to pester him. One ill placed word from Sevir gave the guards all the permission to "subdue the volatile Beast".
Azik immediately stared at Balios. Desperation and anguish filled his eyes. It was too much of a risk he said. Anyone who goes might not be able to come back and risk exposing the entire guild. Balios regarded Azik as he left, and shook his head.
Azik was horrified. They were all going to twiddle their thumbs while Sevir rot in a cell and being brutalised by others. He was going to go save him. Alone.
It was 2 in the morning when Azik started to infiltrate the prison. Entering through a ventilation shaft, Azik landed in the storage closet. Being careful not to cause alarm, Azik made his way to Sevir's cell.
He was beaten. Welts and bruises marked his skin where feathers have been broken or torn off. Azik stood aghast at what they did to him. Azik whispered out to him, and Sevir looked up, smiling grimly. Azik had already unlocked the door by the time Sevir got to his feet.
Azik led Sevir through the prison and to the storage room. One look told Azik that Sevir won't be able to climb. He then walked outside in search of a fault in the fence. As they searched, Azik heard footsteps. He turned to see four faces. All sneering at them. Before Azik could say anything. One pulled a gun and shot Sevir clean between the eyes.
Azik looked back and saw Sevir on the ground. Blood pouring from his head. The guard said something about saving Azik from that deranged owl. Azik screamed and ran towards the guards. Before they could react, Azik had planted a knife in the neck of the first. One guard slashed downwards, but Azik jumped back. He threw a knife, but the guard deflected it. Azik focused, and caught the blade with telekinesis, high midair.
Azik ran towards the guard with two daggers in hand. The guard tried thrusting his sword. Azik ducked out of the way. He was too fast for them. Before the guard could withdraw his arm, Azik trusted his dagger between the armour into the armpit. The man squealed in fear as rose behind the guard and slashed his throat. Two down.
The other two stood motionless. The guard holding a pistol wouldn't budge, but the other who held a lance advanced. He started thrusting the point at Azik. All aimed for his chest or head. But Azik's reflexes allowed him to see and react without being so much as grazed. Sidestepping the strikes, Azik swung his leg and kicked the man with a low sweep. The guard fell on his backwards.
Before he could get up, Azik walked past. Throwing a knife directly between the man's eyes. Azik looked at the last guard, who was holding his pistol pointing at Azik. Shaking. He told Azik to drop his weapons. Azik smiled cruelly and let his daggers fall. But instead of hitting the ground, they stopped in midair with. The man looked terrified, began to squeeze the trigger when he stopped. A circle appeared beneath the man as he stood. Motionless.
Azik willed the two daggers to hover in front of the man's face. He then willed the third in the air to come back down and aim for the hand holding the gun. Azik released the Times spell, and the daggers surged forward. A sickening squelching noise filled the air as the man screamed. He threw the gun into the air as he reached up to his face.
Azik focused again, and altered the trajectory of the gun's flight. Holding his hand into the air, he caught the gun, aimed, and squeezed the trigger.
-------------
Azik didn't go back home. He didn't go back to the guild. Knowing that the Government would send detectives and bounty hunters after him, Azik fled from the city. He didn't know here he should go, and frankly didn't care.
He just needed to disappear.
Running for two days, Azik realised he was standing at the threshold of a forest. Azik looked back. He could see a faint outline of Rynok. Facing the forest again, he started forward.
------------------------------
After a few months, Azik started to grow aware of a presence. It had a voice, but was inaudible. After a week of hearing the voice, Azik grew tired of ignoring it and shout out what the hell it wanted. The voice replied, with sudden clarity, that it wanted to show Azik who he was.
The voice turned out to be an Ancestor of Azik. To be exact, he was a Dragon. He needed Azik to accept his presence to be able to communicate clearly He told Azik that he had Dragon Heritage. And that he had the choice to free the flow of his ancestral strength. Azik accepted. He spent 3 months being taught by whom the Dragon said his name to be Takanost.
Azik eventually released his inner strength. Takanost told him that because of this, he would age a great deal more slowly. Azik was at first angered by this. He never had any intention of wanting to outlive others. He wouldn't talk to Takanost for a whole year.
Finally, Azik confronted the old Dragon and forgave him. Azik spent decades training and honing his skills. Takanost told him that he wouldn't be able to turn to his True form until quite some time had passed.
One day, Azik saw a Beastfolk wolf walking through the forest. This had been the first time in decades to have a chance to talk to someone from the outside. Azik decided he would talk to him.
He ran ahead of the wolf, and crossed his path.
The wolf noticed him instantly. He regarded Azik with a cold stare. Before Azik could say anything, the wolf lunged at him. Azik dove out of the way. He tried to tell the Beast to stop, but the wolf dashed towards him and started swiping with a sword.
Frustrated, Azik threw a hand out and pulled the sword away from the wolf. He then used his telekinesis to draw his daggers. All rushed and surrounded the Beastfolk. The wolf told Azik to finish the job, but Azik withdrew his daggers.
The Wolf said that it was foolish. That he should just follow the footsteps of other humans. Killing, abducting and experimenting on Beastfolk, Feys and other species. Azik shook his head and told the Wolf that he wasn't human.
The wolf looked surprised when Azik explained. Azik finished by stating how much he loathed the Government for killing Sevir. The wolf smiled sadly. He then told Azik that he was a Scout for the Resistance. He said that Azik displayed great skill in battle, but also showed compassion. He asked if Azik would be interested in joining.
Azik didn't give it a second thought. He was in.
