Legends of Belariath

Alex`Lor

Born in a small village to a pair of farmers he seemed destined to be just another cog in machine that feeds the land. But he quickly grew disatisfied with his lot in life. One when he was just 8 he went to town with his father to sell some wheat and saw a passing mage. The mage was clothed in amazing colored robes, magic and flame seemed to dance around his every movement. Alex's eyes were locked on this amazing man and he made up his mind. He begged and pleaded with his father to let him study magic. Finally his father agreed but being just a poor farmer he had to sale and borrowed all he could to send his son to the nearest mages acedemy.

Alex spent the next 10 years behind the walls of that acedemy. It was long and exhausting, especially at first. He worked hard and long to improve himself and to be a standout mage in the academy but coming from just being a farmers son he was lucky to pass the first few years without being dropped. No matter how hard he tried, weither it was destiny or just a cruel joke, he just barely managed to climb to the middle of his class, average skills in everything he did. So with almost no fanfare he graduated on his 18th birthday. Unfufilled and not willing to return to the farm he started off on a journey...a journey to find something better for himself and to stand out above the crowd.

And so following the stories of the great mages of Unigo and the library he could study at he came to Nathaniel. A farmers son and a barely average mage he has sworn to himself to follow his path. To follow the flame that burns in him to harness the power of fire. That first mage he saw lit the desire in his heart and now he seeks the power of the pyromancer. He doesn't seek power to conquer nor to show others what he can be. He seeks the flame cause it burns in his breat even now, so that he can be strong enough to rise above that farm he was born on and rule his own destiny and future and not just be another cog in the machine.
