Biography

===Flurby Bio===

Off in the distant northern corner of the world there existed an Island paradise. Ultima Thyilea had a Navy like Athens, an Army like Sparta, a culture that rivaled Egypt, the thought and Science of Rome, the beauty of Babylon and overflowing coffers that could rival any of the ancient Empires, perhaps even several of them. The sun shined down on the Island all year long, which was kept temperate by the cool breeze of the surrounding sea, and the grass and trees were green all year long as well.

It was said that on Ultima Thyilea; peasants lived like nobles, the nobles each lived like Kings and the Grand Jarl lived like a god. There was no poverty, disease and illness were a distant memory and the human lifespan had been expanded beyond a century through both magic and medicine. The Ome family had been the hereditary rulers of the Island since time immemorial and they thought the people of the land to be happy. But behind the scenes trouble was brewing.

There were some amongst populace that wondered why they did not go forth and conquer. There were a great number of these among the Army and the Navy. The Ome family contended that no one on the Island wanted for anything, why would they deprive others of what they possessed? But some including the powerful Hakon family and some among the elders council, argued that they could bring the same kind of paradise to the rest of the world that Ultima Thyilea was selfishly keeping to itself.

In the end, Herald, Chief of the Hakon family, conspired with a man named Magnus who was both court Sorcerer and Head of the Elder Council. Drottinn Herald himself was Commander of the Navy. The two men decided that their views and the decisions made by the Ome Family were irreconcilable and action must be taken. They combined their incredible influence and set events in motion that would affect the rest of Etah’s life.

Grand Jarl Ome Htaol was slain in his sleep by assassins who slipped into the Palace. His oldest son, Hersir Ome Esipsed, who was the crowned heir and Army commander, was slain in his own camp by him own men. Etah, the youngest son who wasn’t yet five years of age, was spirited away by an old family friend, Thorstein, who was also a distinguished member of the Elder Council. Thorstein took the boy to the Chambers of the Council.

The Council without Magnus present proclaimed in a divided vote that Htaol and Esipsed were dead and Herald was a traitor and thus not eligible to claim the Throne. The majority of the Elders had sided with Herald on the expansion issue but vehemently disagreed with his methods and thus proclaimed the child Ome Etah to be Ome Etah I, ruler of the Domain of Ultima Thyilea.

Moments later those Elders who disagreed with the majority vote of the Council opened the doors to Herald, Magus and their conspirators. The young Etah watched as the elders were slain one by one. The young man ran and launched himself out of the tall tower and considered dead as he plunged into the depths below. However the Ome Family was the chosen of Njord, Norse God of Water and Patron Deity of Ultima Thyilea and thus he survived.

Two decades later Ome Etah I, rightful ruler of the Domain of Ultima Thyilea resides in Thor’s Refuge in Westmarch on the continent of Amtgardia. He spent fifteen years as a lowly Surf on a noble lords land, and he now seeks to become a great and powerful warrior. Etah dreams of one day raising an Army, reclaiming his birthright and victoriously returning to the paradise he knew as a child.

A Skeleton Known Only As Hate
The oldest son of Grand Jarl Ome Htaol, Ome Esipsed was the Crowned Heir of Ultima Thyilea and Hersir of the Islands Army. He loved his life and wanted for nothing. Esipsed dreamed of the bright future he could bring his Island home and of his statue that would reside in the hall of heroes to be seen for all time. He dreamed of all these things until the night a group of his subordinate commanders slit his throat in his sleep, right before they executed his wife, all four of his concubines and all six of his children.

Though he was already dead before his family met their fates, his immortal spirit witnessed these events and they twisted him. A group of loyal subordinates secured his body and gave him a traditional burial below the waves. As his corps splashed into the sea, his soul reentered his body, unable to move on in this world due to Esipsed’s seething anger. His eyes opened, his bones clacked.

Time though present, ceased being important to Esipsed. Time passed and so did his skin, but his spirit, attached to his body, still crashed through the sea. In time he came on shore. Though he could think and speak, his thoughts were dominated by hate and murder. Once ashore he found he could walk and move. He picked up weapons and started to slay. In time he found other skeletons and roamed with them in packs. As time moved on he remembers less of his former life and the reasons for his motivations and decisions fade as he became a mindless skeleton and a living testament of hate.
