Osha Family/Barbar

Baron Barbar Osha Age Died Aged 30 Place of Birth Koolaris, Giblot Realm(s) Carelia Ash Sea Islands Alowca Class Hero Title(s) Baron of Irdalni Religion The Trinity Alignment Good Ale of Choice Irdalni Ale

During his early life, Barbar had to put up with alot of arguments from his brothers, particularly Sera who was an exact opposite of Barbar in almost every way. Barbar was relieved to see his elder brother leave to start his military career and allow Barbar to train in peace. Barbar angered the family recently by moving the contents of the family mansion in Koolaris, all the way to a new mansion in Irdalni. Sera is currently denying the truth of such a tale and seeks to prove him wrong by visitng the old Mansion. The Consequences for Barbar when Sera finds out the truth are impossible to predict.

Early Life

As soon as Barbar was old enough to pick up a sword, he was a natural with it. Barbar wowed everyone who saw him fight. His advanced skill contrasting with his young age. However Barbar did not let it all go to his head, and he mixed study with swordmanship throughout his young life before taking his first steps to becoming a Noble.

Barbar is a family man of sorts. He feels that it his duty to Defend his Family - whatever the costs. With this extreme loyalty and a strict set of morals in hand, Barbar said goodbye to his life in Koolaris and took a ship to Atamara to make his name in the world.

Barbar's Heroics

The first Realm Barbar joined was Carelia and he relished all the battles he had there. So happy he was with the warrior lifestyle he was leading, Barbar took his first steps down the path of Heroes. For a short while Barbar used his new status for the greater good and he did his best to defend the weak and prevent injustice. It wasn't long however before Barbar left Carelia for the Ash Sea Islands. Fleeing the moral decay which had compelled Carelia to declare war on this fair realm.

While in ASI Barbar was able to keep a watchful eye over his brother as well as help defend against the tyrannical and dark forces that surrouneded ASI. As soon as Barbar was confident that his brother could stand up on his own two feet Barbar decided to leave Atamara for home in the Colonies.

A Return to Home

Once in the Colonies it did not take Barbar long to see the Darkness his brother had sown in Giblot. Disgusted, Barbar vowed never to return to his Homeland whilst Sera's corrupting influence remained there.

So Barbar travelled South and joined the religious Realm of Alowca, where the people were all followers of the Trinity Religion. Barbar quickly dedicated himself to these new and strange Gods and learned of their teachings. He would use his new found faith to destroy evil such as his brothers...

Barbar's Barony

Shortly after Barbar joined Alowca, he quickly rose to prominence in the ranks of the Alowcan nobility, usually being one of the more vocal of the Alowcan Nobles. After Alowca's Peaceful acqusition of Irdalni, Anomalous, Pontifex of Alowca granted Barbar the right to reign over the Barony of Irdalni as a reward for his services to the realm. Barbar quickly turned the region into a thriving community and currently the Citizens are very happy as their quality of life continues to improve under Barbar.

Family Disgrace

A couple of years before his death, Barbar took it upon himself in a painful and ardorous process, to hire people to move the contents of the Koolaris Family Mansion, all the way to his new Mansion in Irdalni. Although Barbar claims that he's protecting the family's belongings from Undead, some believe that Barbar is trying to remove Sera's dark influence over House Osha. Only time will tell if Barbar suceeds in his task.

Death

Barbar died during a time of great Political Upheaval upon the Colonies and it was his erratic, yet Heroic behaviour during this period that eventually led to his death. News of Barbars death quickly spread round the continent after he fell, adding to the infamy of Barbar's heroic Actions. The absence of any Osha family members from the funeral appeared to confirm that Sera has managed to retake control of the direction of House Osha

Barbars Final Days

In the final days of Barbars life, he was a part of the Alowcan task force charged with defending the Abakan people from the Oritolon Heathens who lusted for their riches. It is unfortunate however that, due to a mix up by higher ranking figures, this task force turned out to be grossly inadequate for the task at hand. For when the armies of Oritolon finally did march into Abaka from Grentzen, the Alowcan forces were quickly routed. Quickly taking advantage of Alowcan disarray, the Oritolon troops began looting and burning their way through Abaka. It was something Barbar could not stand idly by and watch unfold, thus he took the initiative! He challenged Loki the Royal Assassin, Prime Minister of Oritolon to a Duel! The Honour of the Abakans would be upheld!

Barbar's Demise

Following a restless nights sleep, Barbar and his two bodyguards made their way to the Oritolon Encampment to meet Loki for their Duel. They assembled in a white circle that had been marked out on the grass and as both loki and Barbar entered, the Oritolon troops formed a wall around the competitiors. Something Barbar was suspicous about as they had arranged an open duel, though it was of no matter. The Oritolon Troops were surely Honourable enough to allow the Duel to take place Peacefully? But Barbar had no more time to think about it as Loki quickly lunged forward at him - and so the Duel begun! It seemed to last forever, with both Loki and Barbar blocking, seemingly every blow. Just when you thought one was finally going to concede to the other, they suddenly fought back again. However, it had to end eventually. And finally, Barbar could fight no more after suffering a deep wound upon his right arm. Loki grinned and rather than exchange after duel pleasantries, he quickly left - but his men remained in position. As Barbars bodyguards helped him up to leave, no Oritolon would break ranks to let them through. Sensing the worst, Barbar and his men all withdrew their weapons - but it was too late. The Oritolon troops all charged forwards and it was over within seconds. Barbar was dead. The Honour of the Abakans had not been upheld, and shortly afterwards Abaka became a part of Oritolon. It truly was, a sad, sad day for Alowca...

Barbar Roleplays

It's a Hard Life being a Hero

Barbar suddenly noticed a raised platform in the middle of Abaka. It hadn't been there yesterday and just seemed to have appeared overnight. Interested, Barbar politely excused himself from the conversation with his soldiers and walked up to it alone. As Barbar approached he began to make out some writing upon the steps leading onto the platform, though he couldn't read it yet. When he finally got to the steps he suddenly learned what the platform was for. The writing said:

"Heroes - Tell Your Tales Here! Free of Charge!"

Barbar, excited by this opportunity quickly got onto the raised platform and waited for his adoring crowd to come. Who would've thought that he could spin a tale or two before Alowca had even finished their reorganisation of Abaka's administration? Barbar waited upon the platform for 10 minutes but no-one came to greet him. Confused, Barbar decided that he would begin telling his tale anyway and then when the peasants heard they would come out and see him and applaud when he was done! Yes that was a good plan! And so Barbar started to waffle...

Four Hours Later...

"...and that folks is how I saved an entire village from a demonic herd of cows!"

Barbar bowed as he finished and then he finally he opened his eyes (he always got so nervous during his speeches). Astonished, Barbar saw that there was no-one there. Barbar stood there gobsmacked for a moment before he slowly made his way off the platform looking throughly put out. Passing his sniggering soldiers on the way back to camp didn't help his mood much either.

Barbar sighed when he eventually got back to his administration tent. He would just have to wait until the Abakan's became Alowcans before he could tell his tale again...
