Anima Family/Velox
A young man full of ambition and audacity, Velox had an unique upbringing among the nobility of his time. When he was but eight-years-old, he begged a young Caligan hero to make him his page so he could witness the great battles that ravaged the Southern portion of the Continent. Unforutnately, the hero declined. Still determined to see the grand battles of the South, Velox stow away on a trader's carte to the region of Supra. When Velox reached the region, it was in the middle of a large battle. Spotting the Caligan hero from before, Velox foolishly decided to run towards him. A troke of luck brought Velox to the hero unscathed, but unfortunately, this act distracted the hero from the battle at hand and he was struck down by a nearby Yssarian soldier. Staring in horror of what had just happened, and finally exposed to the truth of warfare, Velox stood there motionless while the battle continued around him.
Miraculously, Velox survived that battle. Gathering his nerves, he decided the reason he survived the battle was that he is destined for something else. Over the next decades of his life, Velox travelled throughout the East Continent, serving as page or squire to numerous nobles. Throughout the years, Velox gained a whole new perspected on warfare, and came to see it as not as a necessary evil, but as something to be enjoyed. Velox returned home once he turned 17. His cousins, the twins Gladius and Stella tried to persuade him to stay on the continent and help them face the leviathan that was Fontan. However, Velox has other plans on mind. He became tired of the continent and desired something new.
Stepping off the ship to the newly discovered continent of Dwilight, he became a noble in Morek by swearing allegiance to the Viscount of Huanghai, Vesuvis. Velox's first days in the realm were mostly uneventful, save for a failed bet at the vacant position of Ordermarshal. When he was offered to be one of the founders of a new colony based at Flowrestown, Velox eagerly took the offer. After months of preparation, the colonists set off and soon after the creation of the new realm, Velox was elected to the position of Earl Marshal in an unanimous vote. He was also key in the drafting of a Constitution for the new colony.
His time in Aquilegia was not as long as he would have liked, however. Coming back from visiting the family to mourn the death of his uncle, Velox returned to see his Aquilegia much changed. Refusing to let these usurpers have their way, Velox tooth and nail in a series of protests to bring down the so called Emperor. However, his efforts were gone to waste when he foolishly decided to join in active rebellion with Garret. Seeing her opportunity, the new Duchess of Flowrestown bought the hearts of many nobles and crushed the rebellion in its infancy. And so ended Velox's service in Aquilegia as he was captured and exiled to the island of Beluaterra.
Beluaterra was a new land but he found welcome within the realm of Bara'Khur. After witnessing the iron-hard resilience of these people, Velox finally began to regain his ambitions.
