The Beginning
My story starts in the few weeks before Halloween started. Well, it started when I was born in Snowhill. I had a knack for spells, and when I was 5 yrs old I happened to figure out how to create ice out of water (without a freezer.). it was a small ice shard I had formed, but when it touched water, it would freeze the water instantly, turning it into ice.
When my father learned of this, he started to teach me spells from his legendary spell book (he was an achieved wizard as well) every day up until three days after my 8th birthday. That's when my whole world turned upside down. I had noticed that my father neglected to return his spell book to its spot in his secret safe (we all knew where it was, we just couldn't get the darn thing open at all). I remembered the ice spell I did by accident, so I decided to try to replicate the spell I had done.
Bad move. The spell that I used accidentally locked my heart to where I could not feel any love from and for my parents, my family, or anybody. My father was distraught with grief, and sent me to the Druid Academy to train me so that I could undo the spell I did (only those that use spells that affect emotions, morphing, and hypnotism can be undone by either the original caster or the next generation. After going there until I was 15, I decided to head out on my own and but an apartment. It was small, but with my abilities I knew I could earn some money.
Sadly, some "friends" pinned me with robbing from the Royal Vault under the bridge. I told them that I was in Blackspore, looking for an old artifact that could make someone fall in love. The queen did believe the story, but until I could prove it, I was banished to Briarwood. That's not even the bad new. Because I was tried and was looked at as a thief, I was kicked out of the Academy. So I was stuck as a level four wizard until further notice. I didn't really like crowds and I tried to stay away from crowded areas, yet I also tried to make a lot of friends in the game. Why? I have absolutely no clue whatsoever. The good news was that nobody really stayed in briarwood for long, so I could be left alone.
After 3 months of being there, an archaeologist that was a friend of mine had heard the news of me being banished to briarwood and told the queen I was there looking for artifacts and I had left 3 days after the robbery took place. I was in the clear, but I still couldn't go back to Sanctuary until the robbers were caught. So I decided to go to Lakeshore. A nice place, so I decided to stay and I happened to talk to one of the residents named Ty. He was a Ninja master, and he knew I was innocent. He made me a level 10 Ninja in no time.
But I had to go to the place that I know the best to receive more training: Snowhill (obviously). My first job there was to stop the yetis from partying in the hot springs cavern. Coincidentally, the mayor needed somebody to do the job. I met with the mayor who I agreed to help him with his yeti problem.
After I showed the yetis that I was the boss around there, I decided to pay my folks a visit. My father had already heard the news, so when I got there and told them my side of the story, all my father did was hug me and said, "I know that you are innocent. I know you didn't do it. You tell the truth like as if it was going out of style." I laughed- the first laugh I had in years since I cast the spell that sucked away all my love.
After about a week there I decided to take on the task of the missing sarsaparilla shipments that has a party happening there every day: Wugachug. Obviously everyday is a party there, but watch out when a Wugachug burps because you'll lose your hat! Evidently the mixture wasn't right and the Mayor had sent for the right a batch ingredients but no word had come back from the Wugachug deliveryman confirming he had delivered it within the week. So I was asked to search for the lone Wugachug out in the wilds. I found him at the warpstone to Wugachug. Not even thirty feet from the entrance, He had fallen asleep!
I rudely woke him up for his job so that he wasn't fired and reported back to tell them the story. I earned 25 coins from the job, and decided to get myself a hat to keep the sun off my head. Before I left, I collected enough tokens there to receive the Wugachug Backpack. But I still liked my old one so I kept both. I headed back to Snowhill to say goodbye again to my parents and set off to the next place for my ninja training that receives sun all the time: Seaside (where else?). I reached a level 15 Ninja within a week there. One of my tasks was to search out the area in Silverhills and find out what had happened there. I strode over the barrier into the emptiness of the Outside of Sacred Grove.
