Brief History to Date:
On the eastern edge of the Barrier Peaks, near the entrance to the Valley of the Mage, lies an indescript community named Muirach. Muirach would be an average village and nothing notable were it not for the Academy found there. The Academy was a community of thinkers and sages, scholars and mages.
Soval, like many others growing up in the community developed a tendency towards quiet inward reflection. Working as a scribe in the library reinforced that even more so for Soval. However, his duties in the library allowed him to read of other places and times. As he read, he pondered more about them, and he began moving toward more of an outgoing personality, sometimes even a reckless one.
From birth, Soval seemed destined for nothing more than living in the small village of Muirach and transcribing old manuscripts. When his mother (a former warrior and adventurer herself) died and his father remarried to a woman whose son had elven blood, Soval dove even deeper into his studies. At that point, he felt his mind awakening, reaching out to manipulate the very air, warp the fabric of space, and call forth the energy of the elements themselves.
While he was able to understand his abilities though his father's journals and those of other mages of the community, he found that by focusing his mind on a portion of his discoveries, he was able to manipulate the psychic forces with ease.
With the death of his father by his stepbrother’s hand, Soval allowed the wanderlust that had taken hold from reading all those manuscripts to come to fruition and left the village. He did make himself a silent promise though, that he would return and see justice done on behalf of his father.
