Name: Azorius Sokolo

Age: 26

Birth Option: Grandaeluxian Native

Race: Human/Northern Grandaeluxian
Physical Appearance: At a staggaring 8'3 comes the Giant of Nordruzian, Azorius is infamous in his village for his height and physique. He is considered abnormal strong, even for a Northern Grandaeluxian. Azorius has his dirty blond hair cut as short as it possibly can be with some sheep shears and a sword, he keeps a rough beard to compliment his strong facial features. Azorius is by no means handsome however, his features are large and masculine on the border of gigantism. Though young, Azorius already bears many scars from his violent upbringing, his nose is misshapen and bulbous from the many times it was broken and reset, half of his left ear is missing, eaten when he wrestled a wolf. Azorius' body is massive and wide, his hands large enough to palm a human skull and his feet large enough to crush one.

Backstory: Ever since he was a boy, Azorius has been cast into violence and death. Since he could wield a dagger, he fought Rams and other children, since he could wield a bow, he hunted wolves and elk. Since he could wield a sword, he slayed bears and other men. Azorius' life has been a constant power struggle, him verses the world, rarely seeking the help of others, even rarer that he was offered it. Azorius became obsessed and corrupted with the thought of power, the power to change his miserable life, the power to change everyone's life. It was when Azorius was 16 that he began his nomadic life, even at 16 he was larger than most of the men in his village. No one other than his father dared question or cross him, he regularly beat other children for food and respect, he was feared by all, except his father.

Though it was his father that cast him into such violence and hateful childhood, his father blamed Azorius for becoming the animal he is. All of Azorius life he was tormented and forced to fight and when Azorius started to want to fight and wanted to torment, he became an animal in his father's eyes. 16 was old enough for Azorius to finally face his father, challenging him to the sword his father begrudgingly agreed, facing the giant in the center of town. Azorius felt no love for this man, no remorse for the fight, and immediately Azorius' father was cut down, he hardly even got in a first swing. Azorius was feared by all in his village, but knew that soon that fear would breed hate and so Azorius returned home and packed his things, beginning his life as a nomad.

The first months were unbearable, many nights he went hungry, many times he was close to death, but his father's aggressive parenting had come in handy for the world Azorius lived in, he survived. He thrived. Azorius eventually settled down after a few years, beginning construction of a cabin by a creek that took many months and many days hungry to complete but when it was finished, Azorius felt proud, he felt something he had never felt before, he felt at home. This isolationism served Azorius fine, he crafted his own arrows of stone and wood, hunted his own meals, fought off the rabid animals that dare try and steal his food from him. Azorius lived this life for many years, becoming a skillful hunter, and a skillful slayer. Though it had been years since Azorius had fought a man and he went months at a time without seeing any other people, Azorius skills from his childhood never faded. When bandits did come, they lost, when they gathered their entire crew and assaulted Azorius' cabin; he killed them all, sustaining severe injuries that once again led him to near death.

As Azorius grew older, he grew restless and eventually once again left his home to adventure the land, one thing had always peeked his interest; magic. It had left his mind for many years but as he left the cabin in the woods and starting interacting with more people, Azorius' curiosity only grew. Magic was a powerful thing, Azorius was sure he was strong enough; body and mind to control it and so for the next three years, Azorius journeyed all over Grandaelux seeking those who could teach him to read and write, eventually seeking those who could procure him books on magic and mages and wizards. As he fell deep into his research, Azorius' violent heart settled a bit, there was something comforting about knowledge and Azorius became more inclined to reach out to others... Reluctantly. He became more sociable, more rational, more mature. Though his violent past will never leave him, he now seeks a greater purpose; he wishes to be the change in the world, he wants to be the change he seeks in the world; he searches for a magical tutor to show him the way of mastering the mysterious art so that Azorius can be a better man and better the world.
