Arch-Magician Udor of the Light (#527)

Owner: 0xbC19…c177

Redeemed Magic

For most of his young life, Arch-Magician Udor of the Light found himself wandering the lands, trying to master his own inner powers. When he was born, his father crafted a special pair of glasses that would not only help Udor to study the stars one day, but would also grow as his body grew, due to their special link to the powers of Saturn.

Unfortunately for baby Udor, he spent barely three days with his biological parents before he fell victim to a clumsy Wizard’s misfired spell that accidentally sent young Udor far from his home and deep into the Quantum Shadows.

He appeared miraculously before a tribe of dark Wizards, and they naturally assumed he was a gift from the realms below – a child that needed to be reared in their ways. For Udor though, nothing ever stuck. All of his training was an incredible uphill battle for him to learn the most basic hex. The tribe said it was almost as if he wasn’t wired properly for such magick.

This left Udor feeling like an outcast and at the ripe young age of eight, he packed his satchel and headed out of the Quantum Shadows. Lost and confused, the disoriented young boy soon found himself in the Vampire’s Mist. Before long, he was captured by a wandering Vampire who brought him into his ancient castle. The Vampire forced the young boy to live at the top of the tower and made him clean his home with a lone broomstick.

To Udor’s own surprise, he found that whenever he held onto the broomstick, he would levitate off the ground by a few inches. Never once did he mention anything to Horace the cranky Vampire, as he was afraid that his master might confiscate the broom and give him a severe punishment.

After a year in the Vampire’s castle, Udor gained the courage one afternoon to jump out of the window and fly away from the caste on his broom. This worked for some time, allowing him to put enough distance between him and the castle to escape, but soon he crashed into an invisible wall put up by a travelling Sorcerer.

As Udor landed on the ground, the Sorcerer attempted to steal the boy’s Glasses and his rare Guillaume’s broom, knowing both to be of great power. But as he tried to snatch them from the unconscious child, he was blasted by a strong Saturn Hex that turned him into a shining toad. When Udor regained consciousness, he caught the toad and roasted it over a bonfire that night for his supper. After falling asleep, Udor had very strange and powerful dreams of a place called the Light, where two kind souls pointed to the stars and honed in on a specific one with a large ring around itself.

Udor awakened in fright and found his vision had changed. He could not only see the giant ringed planet clear as day in the night’s sky, but he could also see a burning trail before his feet that seemed to be guiding him on a mystical path.

For two years Udor followed that path, using his broom to fly him over the lands, until one day he landed in a large city in the centre of the Light. There, he was welcomed home and reunited with his parents. The following week, he was lavished with gifts and given a proper initiation ceremony by the townsfolk.

For the first time in his life, he felt like he finally belonged, and in no time, his mother and father taught him how to use his powers properly. However, he surprised them from time to time when he would conjure a dark magick spell or wander into the woods for days on a spiritual journey. Nonetheless, Udor grew to be a fine Arch-Magician as an adult, and is well respected in his community even if he may lose his temper every so often and cause his neighbours to have a month of bad luck.
