As this free urchin Anton honed stills to survive as a child in an urban sprawl. Theft, fighting a, sneaking and fleeing were nessecary to avoid notice or worse. Despite this Anton found himself observed by the Bratva.

Anatoli and Sven of the Bratva took Anton in. The pair along with other local members began using Antom as a messenger. He was one of the best they had, and many of the members took a shine to the boy.

During this time Anton was given training in locls, compiters,combat, writing, reading, langauges, weapons and more. It was a strange but specialized education Anton thrives on. As time passes her ate up all the lessons he got, excelling far further then the others.

At 16 young Anton was thrust into military service. Pietro his handler saw potential in Anton. Adding in the myriad of benefits such service would provide the Bratva and Anton it had to be done. Anton did not question it, instead he threw himself into the mission for the Bratva that had become his family.

Antons days as a soilder seemed easy. The lad excelled havimg master basics, passed rigorous physical, phaycolpgical and mental tests to the point her was recruites into the Spetnez. This elite military unit made him a force to be reconmed with. His former skilled flrefined and enhanced to match the weapon he had become.

All that came to an end when a letter from his "mother" arrived. It was a Bratva signal to come home. To do this Anton became a throne in his commanders side.

Eventually when confronted Anton and his Commanding Officer fought, with Anton breaking his COs nose, collarbone and right arm. This gor him discharged from the military.

A year since his doscharge an incident happened. This incident changed his life in the Bratva from mere guard ro wetwork. Strangely it involved a politician whom Anton broke the mans nose and defeated all his body guards over a simple slight to his Handler Pietro.

Antons punishment senr him out of Russia to Tokyo, Japan. There he was attacjted to working in one of the local fronts. Ironically it was a Games and second hand item store. It was here Anton was introduced to VR games and well gaming in general. It also lead him to play Yggdrasil in the effort to play his role as a seller of such games. Turned out the man liked it

As Anton worked in the shop, he played Yggdrasil when he could. His best time was playing alongside others in demo mode to try and up sell the game and system.It was during this time his mere human was both blessed and cursed gaining the Advanced Blessing, but also the Ink curse. So he was no longer human but a creature of ink.

Anton wpuld while workinf from his base in Japan often leave to do numerous jobs for his Brothers. This worl was wet work. Descreet dirty work around Japan and Asia cleaning up those who crossed the Bratva This was never against the local gangsters. He also never left without a console.

While Anton grew infamous in the Real world his character, dubbed Ink the Spot by the community grew. Many a group or individual felt the sting of some harmless adventurer who needed help only to succumb to a swift death. A few saw the black inky ooze and whispered rumprs flew about it some unique monster instead od a player killer.

Antons playstyle at this time was effective. He appeared as a humaniod with tattoos. His class allowed him to mask his level and gamer tag as well as anyother information replacing it with something appropriate. Then he would shift his form or wait for the right time to strike with his natural weapons. This tactic was so profound that eventually he would dupe a person into bringing him to the Black Raven Guild. Once inside he slew those with in and bypassed rhe defenses to liquidate rhem of all there goods

Though that was his most infamous feat, Ink the Spots infamy started way before that. When in America for a Job he logged onto the servers there. During this Time the Tomb of Horaco was up. Home to Horaco the Vivisecrionist Lichwas a slof many players had not conquered due to the profound use od Alchemical traps and creatures. Ink on a team of 5 slogged through it. Antons Ink survived due to his region specific curse. This was the first and only person to co quer it before the patch.

The success od this venture is what brought Ink into the rankings internationally. The fame factor was a detrement as many other players would try and seek him out. Thabkfully his class allowed for anonymity. Which added to the Myatery that was Ink the Spot.

Still many hunted for Ink.This lead him to having to join a guild. Je joined the Seeds of Destruction. Inks role was that of a scout and inflitraitor. This utilized his skills and natural aptitude It also played i to the mystery and wild card od his abilites.

Ink the Spot as he was called became a member you could rely on. This led to many scoutinf and supportive rolls at first. Ink managed to encourage slimes into the guild house ti help reinforce the guild house. In the beginning je would help any member who would ask.

Do to Antons inital nature as a scout and some inflitration missions he eventually was given solo missions. This lead to his most infamous mission. The Black Raven Guild Massacre. Ink became Tinjin the Blade a Tengu swordsman who needed assistance. When he inflitraited and joined Ink dlipped the script and slew those their. This lead to the in game titles Two-Faced, The Betrayer, and Friendslayer.

Despite many wondering how this was possible Inks class allowed this. It was an assest the Guild cjerished. He also only had a few who knew his true nature not only as a player and his class. Ontop of this clandestine nature Ink made some alchemical goods and potions ontop of his flare for literary works.

The literary works he made be them book or scrolls Ink would distribute in markets and oddly populate dungeons. Treasure chests, vaults, crypts and the like began see his worls hidden for players to find. Add in his abiloty to travel the world and visit different servers he would leave them there as well. This too gained him The Titles Writer of Legends, Spreader of Stories and the Storied Traveller

Antons travels for his real world work bled into his Yggdrasil play style. As ink he explored and took unique missions often Kill quests. Titles of Far-Travelled, Wanderer, Killer, Slime Friend, Many-Faced and Every-Man fall i to the plethora of titles accured.

Also during this time Anton sought to bloster Inks abilites. Thankfully his travels awarded him the opportunity to do rare missions and access to even rarer abilities and items. This was especially true for his slime body. SmOoze Morphs were weak. Many wrote off the class as it required alot of travel. First of these missions were to secure Iuon stones. First was the Clear Spindle. This rare gem, that grants you the ability to not require food and water,was found while travelling on the north African Server. It took him four tries but he figured out the puzzles and fought the undead hordes ro get it.

The Eastern Star, which grants its user the abilityto speak and understand any written and spoke language was found in the Crypt of the Mad Scholar,on the Eastern European Server. Next was thw Western Stat that grants its user the ability to Disguise your features with illusions and make all iuon stones invisible, was in the Temple of the Trickster God in Brazil. Lastly he gained the sleeves of many garments a simple item that spawned during New York Fashion week when he was in New York. All which aid his disguise abiloties.

On top of these aquisitiond Anton sought out the unknown and unique missions. One was Dying Wish. This mission granted the one who accepts it one wish. The wish allowed the user to submit a request to the administrators. This one was a wish to use his magical gear in ooze form.

This decision was partially due to his acquisition of a powerful fmdefensive ring. One that would greatly improve his defense. This was a gift granted from a monastary mission on the Indian server. It was here he studied with the Monks the of the Iorn Flesh. Upon completion wlhe was granted capabilites of a Monks Iron Body. He did this by beating a deadly 10 hour greuling duel with an Iron Monk Construct. He barely won, but learned the technique and managed ro find a Protective rong whilst completeing the combat.

Another unique scenerio was in Kyoto called The Silent Speaks. This mission was a combanation of Boss Puzzle and stealth. It was a greuling slog but he mastered the event sloving the puzzle as it was needed to end the beast. It was a testbofnsteslth and cunning which he won.In the end he was gifted telepathy.

Lastly one of the strangest occurances was during the mount quests. Here Ink battled the Jungle Lord Ustrek a powerful shapeshifter and druid who fought back in all manner of shape. For this Fight Ink began to lose when a huge Dire Ape came and aides him. The 10 foot tall beast complimented Ink, to the point they partnered well to defeat the shaman. This led to Banjo his Bow Tie wearing brawler that carries his Barrel. After the battle Ink asked for magical buffs. To do this Ustrek told him gold and the hair from 5 dire beasts would be needed. Naturally Ink and Banjo fought in the jungle gathering the materials and blessing a permanent blessing to make Inks strikes now magical.

In the End though Ink the Faceless was master of his craft. The cunning killer and wandering book dealer. UnfortunatelyAnton was on the server as it shut down resting in the Abbatiors vaults. Enjoying the various treasures he helped obtain for the glory of the guild. When he tried to log off after the clock stopped he temained. His curse very apparent for the first time.

Ink the spot appears a grey green blob of goo. It is 5 foot in diameter with streaks of ink running through it. Sometimes sigils, signs, and words scroll across its body. In this form he mices in a roll or a clinging pull and drag. He can even do this along sheer surfaces.

Ink will choose two forms to appear to his allies. One is a goblin with ink blacl skin. Eyes red as embers and white terth. His clothes are oversized ans hang loose with just a dagger at his side. This is Spot the Black.

The secons is a man of 5 to 6 feet in hieght a decent build with plain clothes, features and brown hair. Tattoos seem to move on his skin but he too wears simple clothes and a dagger.

After thst he can form any humaniod creature he comes across. Many also forget they ever see such a man or woman. Not even the Tattoos on its skin.

Anton and Ink are loyal and dedicated. Unlike the real world Anton enjoyed Yggdrisil and all it has to offer. Food, fun, friends. He cherushed these.

He loved being curious seeking strange scenerios and experiences. Not only to grow but to enjoy. Anton made Yggdrisil his place to escape. A land he would travel, and submerge himself in while the oitside world was very much mission after mission with little downtime and risk of discovery.

Anton though still kept his bonds in gave limited as for fear of spillage. He did not wish to end up offing a fellow guild memeber in the real world. So now he will struggle between opening up or continuing to be distant.
