Archmagus Eizo of the Inferno (#2117)

Owner: 0xaE54…00F7

A Look Into The Inferno

Eizo was what you could only call a Hermit. He was not one to go on any grand adventure, content with mixing potions and conjuring new spells to fill his spell book. For he knows it serves a greater goal, a goal far beyond him and his limited time. He wants to see into The Inferno. So patiently he gathers knowledge and powers to perfect his craft.

At nights when the clouds do not hinder his gaze, Eizo stares into the stars hoping to see but a glimpse of the blazing chaos that the cosmos can provide. Most nights prove useless, but not all. On this particular night he saw something that brought inspiration and hope to his grand task. A shooting star that crossed between two ever brilliant constellations. He immediately sketched the scene into his journal and began to gather ingredients. This could be the breakthrough he needed. He was so much closed to seeing the Inferno.

Eizo of the Inferno

"Ex Igne".......Born of the Fire

No one knows for sure the year but the story has been recanted through generations. The story of the one they called “Ex Igne”……….born of the fire.

Eizo was the second son of Eigar and Rowanna Threepbush, a common family, who lived in a small dwelling on the edge of the forest by Dream Master Lake. He was barely of this world when a horrible tragedy unfolded.

One evening the people of the nearby village were alerted to a huge fire by the edge of the lake. There were four dwellings and all were on fire. The people rushed but it was too late. They went from dwelling to dwelling subduing the flames with water from the lake but they found no survivors. As they approached the Threepbush residence a strange blue flame burned from within. When the fire was strangulated and the flames subsided the huge blue flame remained. Shrouded inside was an infant in his crib. As the crowd grew closer the blue flame disappeared and the child let out a wail. His family was gone, burned to ashes like the rest but the boy remained unscathed, and so the legend of Eizo of the Inferno was born.

Eizo was taken to live at nearby Blue Wizard Bastion where he spent his childhood under the tutorship of the famous Granville the Great. Granville was a wonderful but harsh wizard with a terse demeanour and the boy often felt very alone. He cleaned the kitchens for his keep and it was there he befriended a rat called Lumiere. His only friend the boy and the rat became inseparable and Lumiere is by his side to this day.

His deep loneliness was matched only by his insatiable thirst for knowledge. The boy read and he practised, he read and practised, and the read and he practised some more. Soon he had become very powerful and the wizards at the bastion knew it. He could mould and shape fire like no other, able to reduce structures to ashes in the blink of an eye. He had excellent control of water and air, often surprising the elder wizards with his great feats of element magic. Granville had become concerned, for as powerful as he was clever, the boy had started to exhibit a cruel streak. Granville knew it was imperative that the boy be kept away from dark magic and with access to a vast array of dark magic at the bastion he thought it was best the boy was banished. And so he was sent to Calista's Citadel to work as an assistant to Jerval the Proud, an honourable wizard whose magic was pure.

Since then the boy has aged considerably, he has matured and his deeds are well renowned. Undoubtedly of kind heart and ultimately a force for good in the Runiverse he has been known to exhibit extreme cruelty when he felt it was morally right to do so and the shade of wickedness dwells within. Eizo will have to be closely observed now Jerval has passed. With no one to control him it remains to be seen if he can stay on the correct path. And if he cannot the fate of the whole wizarding world could be at risk.
