Vashmere Family/Vatticus

WARNING: "You may take this all as lies or just laugh your butt off. The vashmere family is part of a small group of players now among you who wish to roleplay people from another world that you may not allow in your mind to be real. If you have a problem with these players harmlessly roleplaying accidental victims of a dimensional vortex then there is no reason to read this. The players involved with this intend to make a guild or church of pagan gods and ideas of this world they hail from. Of course they can be seen as psychotic dreamers for your own happyness"

Vatticus Rex Vashmere was born to the master-merchant family of Vashmere on the land Sother. He was born the first of three brothers now all dead.

Looks:Vatticus is 8ft3, thick shouldered and always seen wearing his fancey chainmail garb, even at home. His voice is deeper then any ocean and his eyes have been described as “bloodcurdling” by even the bravest of men. His lumbering size and square head give him the look of an odd cross between an oger and a man.

Personality:Psychological war is Vatt's self proclaimed weapon of choice. He truly thinks he is a master at communication that results pften in chaos. His long letters, overly drawn out banter, poison double edged words and sick images are among his finest weapons. He has cuased whole Kingdoms to bicker and rip apart in presence of his words. His lack of respect for honor and truth allow him to lie and double-talk with ease. Though he can feel friendship and loyalty, he usually ruins both in the end of interactions. The more he is poked the worse he becomes. What he calls a strength can also be seen as a weakness. His mouth and temper are bigger then all the castles in Atamara. He also uses this ability to gain trust in Nobles who may be swaying in loyalty to the crown, giving him connections to secrets and plans within the realm. His guiltless nature makes him a dangerous jester.

Rumors and facts: Rumor of Vatt's involvment with a Cult that worships all evil, and alien gods has spread across Atamara quickly. Some say he is a very active member in the cult's creation and leadership, while others say the cult has no leaders and vatt is a simple pawn of the order.

BIRTH

At birth, the story of Vatticus (often called Vatt) became murky with intrigue and darkest rumor. Born twin to another brother (Tyranus Rex Vashmere) Vatt was the only child to survive the delivery. Tyranus, born stiff and still, had died in the womb with marks around his neck. The wet nurse and local doctors determined the cause of death to being tangled in the mother’s cord. Vatt has been quoted often as saying in half-jest “it was no cord that strangled that boy, it was me. I had nothing to do in her gut, so I had nine months to kill” Vatt's mother (Lady Yesenia Vashmere) was devastated by the loss of one of her twins, in result she quickly became over protective of her surviving first born.

YOUTH.

Vatt was skilled with a sword by the age of 12, and had entered battle officially leading units by age 15. Under command of his father (Victor Von Vashmere the 2nd), Vatt entered and devastated the Jamoonian settlements to the north and east in efforts to gain back land and wealth for his father. During these years Vatt learned much about tactics and weapons- earning much respect as a general to Vashmerian forces engaged in battle with both Jamoon and Crackenseed. By age 18, reports of rape, murder, tourture and disgrace started pouring from all Local settlements. Vatts men had been accused of waging attacks on innocent farmers, merchants and small villages that had not offended the Vashmerian crest. The local governments ignored these reports for years until reports of cannibalism among Vatt himself, and his men, came pouring in. This lead to Vatticus being brought to trial in the lands of Brooksheild in front of an elected judge. The trial proved Vatt innocent of all charges. The judge was found murdered the following week with his tongue and eyes removed.

ADULTHOOD

By age 20, Vatt’s father had lost almost all his wealth and pull within Sother. The family’s gold had come close to running dry and all trades between Brooksheild and Vashmere were coming to a halt swiftly. Lord Victor Von, in a moment of panic, had sent his three surviving sons on a quest.

“to go forth and locate other Kingdoms where we can begin anew. Rebuild our wealth at all costs.”

Vatt decided to travel to the East Islands in search of a Kingdom that would help in his quest, but before getting there he received word that his young brother (Victor Von the 3rd) was raising eyebrows and rabble in a nation called “Abington” claiming he was a warrior and a Noble Knight under the Vashmerian name. Vatt was both insulted and interested in his brother’s insane claims and decided to travel there to find for himself what had made young Victor so “brave” these days.

Atamara

When arriving into Abington, Vatt learned that his brother had sworn a “Sir Gerd” as his liege and patron, as well as adopted the title of “Knight of Sudfern”. Vatt was amused to also find his brother was slain in a legal duel from a fellow Knight of Abington for nothing more then “words over honor”. After learning that Abington was a place that did not imprison or punish such acts as “calling duels on children” or “Slaying the naïve” he finally decided

“This is the kind of place a man like me can get things done in. Abington seems the likely spot to rebuild the family name”

THE MADDNESS (Abington)

After burying his brother, Vatt began his travels within Abington as a Knight of Sudfern, replacing his brother’s duty with his own. During his travels north towards Stonevill , vatt was "rumored" to be seen cuasing much comotion along the way. Local reports said he was becoming famous fast with his "crazyness" in each town he visited. This lead to the mass attack on Vatt by the realm's Nobles from the south all the way to those who were actually serving in the middle of battle in RedSpan. Rumors report Seeing Vatt's attempt to spread influence over officals, locals and certain "unnamed" officals. One Noble (the direct birth son of Lord Drago, passed king of Abington) reported the following-

While heading with my men out to the front I witnesses a strange occurence Looking across the field I saw a nobleman speaking with a rather Elvish looking maiden. I couldn't make out everything that was being said only the screams of the apparently angry lord I then witnessed:

Vatticus: (backhanding her jaw with his heavy gauntlet) I AM IMMORTAL! SAY IT!

Hmmmmm so that is the crazy man I have been hearing so much from. And now not only is he claiming to be from the most famous and noble family ever, now he claims to be immortal too. I shall stay far away from that one lest the demons that obvioulsy inhabit his brain decide to jump out when I am forced to behead him and then they jump into mine.

He ushers his men past, not fearing the man but the demons that must surely inhabit him to cause him to have such delusions of grandeur and to think himself immortal.

No man is immortal."

These sort of reports eventually lead to the entire nation bickering and losing sight of the war. More Nobles now faught the rumors of Vatticus then the actual war. vatticus used his master skills at psychological warfair to help aid a domestic chaos among all of Abington. Reports also rumor Vatts hand in cuasing a questioning among all Nobles of thier Judge and King (A bitter debate between the two led to a calling for a duel to the death by the Judge)

The streets were on fire with rumor, words of demons, witchcraft, inner kingdom duels between King and Law, Nobles losing all control and hope of ever gaining the attention of the war. Few Nobles will be able to see what happend here. They will always remember a time of chaos that not only ripped the crown apart, but also toppled the very trust of Noble-vs-Government. Many spoke of a dark day, a sickness, an infectious mind serpant that could jump from one man's skull to another. The entire Kingdom of peacful Abington was now filled with crazy Nobles doubting Vatticus was real. Swearing he was a fictional man, a False human who came from no where. One Noble called these trying times "the coming of the Gale Force Winds", others simply screamed for attention just to be heard over the sounds of Nobles fighting Nobles, Kings fighting Judges, peasents running in fear. In one Report; Peasents of Sudfern were recorded saying "Sir Andy" was seen dealing with actual Demons!!!

Abington would never be the same ever again. They may return themselvs to the Civil people they once were. They may survive the Judge-vs-King circus that took pride and trust from many Nobles for thier Crown. The entire nobility and Government had been reduced to madmen in just two days of vatt's visit to Abington. Watching the entire land ripping itself apart vatt looked over his work.

The dark lord smiled, remembering the words of "The Grand Poobah" (a most respected and heroic Knight of eldest blood and important duty to the lands of Abington)

"You are nobody, you just got here one hour ago, you have no power, no wealth, no men...Vatticus, you have NOTHING! What can YOU do for Abington? NOTHING!"

Vatt laughed to himself at the thought, thinking: "Abington? HA! Crushed in under 30 hours, and reduced to foolish enemies of thier own family's! HA! And my father said it would take over two weeks to make them pay."

WAYBURG (Abington)

Vatt's stay in way burg resulted in meeting the Arch priest Gauihu, who proved himself to be a living devil named "Savish". In Vatt's mind, possibly reality, the preist has turned out to be one of the 21 elder god's of Sother. Vatt also harbors one of these devils, and is directly faced with another who is possessed. But to Vatt's amazment, Savish seems to keep his presence secret from his host form. Gauihu is not aware of his guiding force, but Vatt knows that Savish would only use a human host that is brutal, evil, canabilistic and murderous. Vatt now wants to serve at his feet in order to keep Toth happy. The two Devils, after all, reign in simular kingdoms.

CARELIA:

Vatt's time spent in Careila was a comic quest to drink and mate with whatever he could capture or steal. The quest ended with the land kicking him out after using the "protest option" to protest the King for being "too attractive" and "too great to be a mortal". The joke resulted in Vatt having to leave. But before he left he was sure to insult the fallen heros of the land AND send his 8 men marching agaisnt the entire armys of Carelia in Skalk. Over 100 men were attacked by Vatt's 8, who all died horribly. Vatt survived to escape to the Cagilan Empire, but not before bragging that his 8 men killed one soilder in one unit. Vatt found this battle to be a win for himself. He hated his unit- now it was dead. And he really was hungry so he ate the fallen Carelian soilder on his way to CE. He also kicked a puppy on the way out and killed a few farmers for good sport. After his trouble making adventures he decided Carelia was too soft to harbor a man of his magnitude.

Cagilan Empire

Vatt's stay in Cagilan Empire resulted in -yes, again- the kingdom hunting his head as he ran for the boarder as a rogue once again. The Kingdom was dragged into disgusting display of confusion and chaos as five others arrived newly in Atamara claiming to have known Vatt in his homelands of Sother. The group called him a brother of The Blackest Cult, and all seemed to have fantasies of being possessed by demons, gods or devils of death. The group were quickly becoming very popular with some Nobles, and less popular with the Grand Justicar Strider. The Primie Minister publically announced on a sunday that the groups right to free speach was protected by the laws of CE, but the following day this right was removed when they spoke openly about chaos and the loves of evil. The group left with a smile as they crossed the boarder with three new members of The Blackest Cult (Nobles who decided the CE was in the wrong in banning the group for simply speaking).

Love

During his stay in the Cagilan Empire Vatticus met Lady Morrigan who he swore as his liege. A wonderful wit, and a powerful sword arm, this woman proved fatal to Vatt's black heart in strikeing his soul with love. He swears he will have her one day, and kill all those who intend to stop him. To his own promise says his first born will be of her womb. He waits to return to CE to both crush its morality and liberate lady Morrigan from her life of bordom and goodness.

Talerium

Vatt's stay in Talerium was wonderful. Sand, heat, camels and more sand. Vatt's came here with no intention of living in a cat litter-box. His disgust for a people who hailed Camels above free speach was noted in his manner. The first day of his stay resulted in Nobles both insulting and welcomeing him, as always. He swore his loyalty as did his travel group of what he called "family". Here they met Derrin, another soul who claimed to be from Mythical Sother. This discovery decided that Vatt would stay and investigate these lands for possible other aliens.

The search lasted two weeks and resulted in nothing but bordom, sand and bickering. The Prime Minister gave strict rule in favor of free speach (A thing they were most proud of). This free speach lead a handful of Nobles to find it meaning "free to insult Vatticus as they saw fun and fit". The Nobles slandered vatt's family by name and directly called for a world wide slaughter of his blood line. They called him a coward and a fool, one dubbed him the Jester. Vatt's tongue, by no means civil at this time, did not resort to insulting any Noble by name. He used hints and doubled talk to return insults being directly thrown at him.

By now the land was being hailed by Vatt as a country of bumpkins and low culture. His desire to slander as lawlessly as the Nobles grew as days passed. He publically announced to the Justicar and Leaders of the realm that if these Nobles were not silence or fined for insulting a Noble's family name, he would return with a slew of insults that would belittle a God's rebuttle.

Nothing was done to stop the slander. By then a Noble had announced publically that he would pay to have Vatt's head marked by a bounty. This Noble was not questioned nor confronted by any law that forbid such dealings with men who kill for money agaisnt law. This was an outrage, and caused Vatt to finally release a barrage of slanderous attacks on the Nobles and officals who took such pleasure in rideing his name all these weeks.

The insults ranged from funny to disgusting and a often a mix of both.

• Two guys sitting in a large open bar are talking. One says to the other, "Hey, this bar is huge! So much room! But it smells like urin and sweat, and too many drunks come in and out all day never paying! Whats this bar called?"

the other noble retorted: "Its not a bar, it's Crimson's MOTHER!

• This land is a toilet! And since this sand box has no water, you must all be DRY POOP!

• You wiggle when I make you wiggle, you talk and say what I when and what I want. I ram my fist in your arse to command you! By definition, you are a puppet!

• Hey! I just punched a camel in the FACE!

The insults earned him a ban less then four hours later. No doubt the Justicar was simply trying to earn politcal points since the prior day he was newly elected. When asked where the free speach went, he was returned with "Insulting a Noble is unbecoming and not protected under law"

On the way marching out, he reported killing a peasent girl and eating her. His words were: "The stupid whore actually thought I really wanted to pet her camel"

His head was publically asked for, as he went to Darka. There he was welcomed by most.

Darka

In darka, vatt has found a realm he both respects and tries to honor. His desires to eat humans and monsters alike has caused him some trouble in Darka but he has promised to remove both from his diet as long as he is on Darka's good graces.

His first few weeks in Darka allowed him to meet a Noble woman by the name of Adelia Darghool, who is a human from Sother. Vatt's attempts to bring her to the Blackest Family failed when she was banished for eating humans on the front line. Vatt was sad to see her go, since he wanted to mate with her bloodline, but he has hopes of meeting her again in a future of death and darkness.

Vatticus has also made communications with one named "Obiden" who at first confronted Vatt for battle, but now seems to have worked out an odd friendship of sorts. The two both seem to be black sheep of Darka and by proxy seem to communicate in a friendly manner.

Vatticus was also invited to dine with the King of Darka (Kostaja Kosunen) privatly. What the two disscussed is unknown to most, but rumor spread over darka that the King was possibly being tempted by devils. This of course is all rumor.

Over the dinner, the King granted Vatticus protection from those in Atamara who seek to remove his head. By allowing Vatticus a position in Home-guard, vatt would not have to venture from darka's soil. Instead he has devoted his time and energy to drinking, killing monsters, and looking for an inflitrator or two to strangle. He is quite pleased with his home, but is growing more and more restless behaving.

Vatticus also has taken Lady Lavigna (ex preistest of Darka)as his liege. She was the voice of reasoning that kept Vatt calm when he first came to Darka. She was also a kind soul in communication and spirit. She was the one who told the world's judges that Vatticus would be allowed to be part of Darka even when they said he would fail Darka. On Vatt's word, he swore to make them wrong by obeying the desires of both the King and law of Darka.

Though Vatt finds no law worthy of him, he does respect the King and Lady Lavigna, so our of a common respect he does not question their words or laws.

Vatt is currently still in Darka where one powerful man holds total control over him with a magical word of Sother. Lastly Vatt has publically promised to never insult a camel or harm a child ever again. The strength of this oath has yet to be tested.

His head was publically asked for, as he went to Darka. There he was welcomed by most.
