Many years ago there was a band of nomads, the Starseekers,
wandering the area of United Crigin, far out into the reaches of space,
they came across a star going nova. Fearing for their lives, they ran. They
escaped the flame but were caught in the radiation that followed the bulk
of the explosion. Later that year, children were born these children had
red iris with both eyes surrounded by a gray horizontal raindrop with a
hardened black ridge serving as an eyebrow. The hair towards the front of
their heads naturally stood vertical and appeared to be afire. Hair towards
the back of their heads was curly and gray, like smoke. They all had
Firemage potential and it was agreed by all that Firemage blackstipes,
Firemages of the highest rank, of the Starseekers were more powerful than
other Firemage blackstriopes. Over the years, more children were born like
this, until gradually the entire band looked like that. They became known
as the Hellsent and were hated and feared by all of the other nomadic
bands. Then four generations after the mutations first occurred King
Leopold of Alquiraz invited them, on the advice of his 18-year-old
councilor, Lord Jerome B.T Tablin, an immortal Blackcoat...
They happily settled in the Tablin province, which Jerome ruled and on the September 25th of that year, 1727, Richard Infayrno Phenyxfire was born Leigh and Belle Phenyxfire. He had the most powerful Firemage gift anyone had ever seen.
He began training at age 10, by the time he was 19 he had his blackstripe. When he was 22 he decided to leave home. He chose to move to Graph'ven, a non-human moon with a human population.
The reborn Graph'venese, as the original's had been wiped out, looked nothing like the original, at least according to the Zanzibarian in charge of their rebirth. The new Graph'venese were about three feet tall with triangular pointed heads and a single eye attached to a stalk on top. They had three pointy fingers on each hand and three legs. Two of the legs had reversed knees and suction cuplike feet. The final leg was more like a tale with suction cup and the end. A triangular flap of skin in the middle of their stomach served as an eating mouth, while a more complex opening served as their means of communication. They were uniformly bright pink with orange polka dots.
While on Graph'ven he met Blackcoat Rosalind D'arosha and he fell in love with her. Rosalind had straight red hair and green eyes. She was only three and a half feet tall, but when challenged could be just as dangerous, or more so then an average person.
After a whirlwind courtship the two were married and Richard was admitted to the Blackcoats Vow. A vow is a group of mages of either the same type or rank who are magically linked together. The Blackcoats Vow contained in it the most powerful, all-type mages in it; all members of the Vow were granted immortality by the Zanzibarians, one of the seven races to inhabit the planet Crigin. The Zanzibarians served as sort of demi-gods, since the true gods had retired to go bowling, play golf or attend AA meetings.
The Blackcoats Vow was created to serve as a last resort force in the case that local mages couldn't handle a physical problem.
At the time that Richard joined the Vow he was the first non-Blackcoat member, but as the years past, more non-Blackcoats were added. First came Stephen Trombetin, one of the most powerful and skilled healers alive, in 1756. Hae Yue Kim, the single most powerful Atomicmage ever to live, followed him, in 1809. Over the years, Rosemary M:Kean, a Purifier; Caesar Rodney 25, an Atomicmage; J.P H'Shendul, a Miracle-worker and Chalko Tipluran, a Watermage also joined. All were blackstripes.
The couple had four children, Leopold, after King Leopold; Roxanna, after Lord Jerome's wife, Lady Blackcoat Roxanne; Levi, after an ancient Alquirazen Queen and P'tero Hafwik, after the captain of the spaceship on which he was born.
When Levi was two years old, the family decided to move Andorel another non-human planet with a human population. The family had no physical contact with the natives as the humans only lived in the northernmost continent, separate from the natives.
As time went by Rosalind and Richard participated in many Blackcoat missions and in 1864 Richard was called before the Assembly of United Criginian Leaders and was given the title, Firelord by the Zanzibarian Queen, Arshdane Ventriloqueazex.
