Aske

Biography

An Eidolon, A Phantasm, A Spectre.... This status has haunted him throughout his memory. A slow shift from an endless, formless gray waste into sharper and more defined focus, leading seamlessly into the present. He knows nothing of his origins or identity. He knows only the rich world around him, the sword in his hands, and the companions by his side. Elder druids and elven scholars have theorized that he could be an astral projection of a being from another plane, or possibly a man who in life was cursed with a tormented immortality. What is clear is that he is neither living nor dead. His goal is to seek mortality or oblivion, for he has long since grown weary of his immortal state. His immortality works in mysterious ways. He could be burned to ashes and scattered across the world, but somehow finds himself in his old body in a familiar location within a single moon cycle. His companions have pledged to help him on his quest and he in turn has granted his service to them in pursuit of their worldly desires.

His undead appearance is clear in his corpse-like features. His presence is further accentuated by spiked leather armor and heavy chained flail. His belt of multispectral absorption allows him to absorb energy from all electromagnetic waves around him. Without this belt, he is motionless and stagnant as all of the other cursed undead. He must wear spectacles enchanted with Nightshade to limit his vision to the spectrum normally visible to humans in order to interact on their level of perception. He removes them at night to view the majesty of the cosmos in a way that no human limited to the visible spectrum of light could ever perceive. He is humble before the great laws of nature, introverted, and Chatoic-Good aligned. He submits to no laws of the living, however, which has brought him to blades with many foes. His emotions run deep but he does not feel the sparkle of life that ignites all living creatures around him. He has no traces of the flame in him, only a constant longing, a bottomless emptiness. He feels the remnants of the flame, the ashes that will sit dormant in his darkened soul for eternity. It is from this he derives his name, Aske.

Aske resides with the Woodhaven Keep

Extended Biography

Once upon a time, Aske's ship was commandeered by a ruthless band of pirates. They stole his ship and forced him to walk the plank. As his lungs began to flood with water, he realized that he would be damned to drown for eternity due to his immortal state. Three days later, when it was time for the sea to give up her dead, Aske remained alive in a perpetual torment at the bottom of the sea. The sea manifested into a spiritual entity to communicate with Aske. Aske made a pact with the sea in exchange for his freedom. The sea would, with its mighty currents, free Aske from his bonds and carry him to a homeward shore, while Aske would from that point on become a vassal for the sea when the sea so wills it. Aske found it convenient to channel the sea in battle, as it gave him incredible power to resist an enemy's attacks. He can only channel this power twice per month, however, at the nodes of the moon cycle when the tides are highest and lowest.
