Urie Jakkan

"I'm the only thing I can be; all that is good, and all that is bad."

- Urie Sicarius Urie Sicarius, otherwise known as Urie Jakkan (pronounced You-ree Jsar-khan), is a man whose intentions and affections have ultimately backfired upon him in the long run. Urie has faced trial after trial during his lifetime, fighting through the toughest of endeavours, all with an ability to keep him going due to his unwavering faith and hope. Urie Sicarius is discontinued until further notice.

He is played by the user known familiarly as Harry.

Prologue
It was the year 129 of the Fifth Age, and while the Kharid-Menaphite war had officially ended with the peace pact between Menaphos and Al Kharid twenty years before, violence was still raging on throughout the desert region. Menaphos, Sophanem and Pollnivneach were all targets for Al Kharidian spies, sent to discover classified information known only by the top men of the Menaphites. Assassins were used by both sides to wipe out high positions and commanders of the opposing force with the intent to cause the opposition to head into disarray. Hate, anxiety and fear were the dominant feelings of the desert.

Karuq Jakkan was watching Pollnivneach when he first met Erith Jonston, a young Varrockian archaeologist visiting the Kharid region to gain data for the Museum on the Pyramids. He thought she was acting suspisciously and attacked the poor woman. He abused her, and even crossed the line when he commited and unforgivable act that led to her pregnancy.

They both knew that their families would not accept such a disgraceful act. They were forced to pretend they were in love, which led them both to take an oath of secrecy to never speak of the incident again. The pair then became married; in a private wedding, and hid together in Sophanem, away from most of the Kharid-Menaphite war action; to create a safe haven for the future baby.

As the years passed, Erith Jakkan found herself pregnant five times. This resulted in the family's children, including the eldest son Zhandar, who is 14 years Urie's senior; Ghualar, who is 9 years Urie's senior; the only daughter who survived childbirth, Alimara, whom is 4 years Urie's senior; and finally the twins Urie and Urhen. In order to keep a flow of money in for the children, Karuq became a Priest and Erith became a part-time carpenter. Life was blissful for the Jakkan family whom were gifted with so many healthy children, but the situation was not always so perfect, which the following years would come to prove.

An Uneasy Adolescence
The growing amount of children soaked up most, if not all, of the Jakkan wealth and food. They struggled to cope, but of course they tried to keep the children unaware of this. The year 143rd of the Fifth Age, Bennath 11th saw the tax steep upwards in desperate attempts for the war effort. Karuq and Erith did not have enough money to pay, but they saw an extreme alternative. Ghualar, only 9 years old, was to be sold into slavery. They felt so much guilt as Ghualar was roughly taken from them, but without any struggle, much to Ghualar's dismay and confusion. They were never told of what actually happened to him, but rumours said he was taken to the Kharidian Duel Arena. He died there a few years later. When the other siblings asked his whereabouts, Karuq and Erith would always solemnly reply "He's somewhere safe". Urie and Urhen, being twins, both turned 5, and were put into some education. Because they were getting older, Erith had more freedom to continue her carpentry, and collect in more money. They were placed in a local 'school'; a large building that was actually rather worse for wear, and the teacher would usually teach them outside of the 'classroom' with low standard tools. Despite this, Urie was actually rather good in most classes, recieving high marks for his effort and ability.

A year later with Urie now aged 6 the eldest sibling, Zhandar, announced he was leaving home. He packed his bags and set off a week later, to Varrock, supposedly because he wanted to research some data inside the Museum. Urie always joked with his friends that it was because of a girl, but he never revealed it to his family.

Hostilities occured inside the Sophanem Menaphite church when Karuq and his long-time rival, Mohammad, began to give each other verbal abuse, which increased by the day. It resorted to physical action; violence inside the church was not tolerated and both would have been kicked out if not for the cold-blooded murder of Karuq Jakkan. Mohammad hauled the body away and threw it into the southern sea, away from prying eyes. The other Menaphites seemed to not notice, or even be bothered by this; they thought Karuq had merely went away or had quit.

Years passed, and Erith grew ever worried when Karuq never came home. She stayed awake, praying to the Pantheon that he would arrive home, smiling, open armed, acting like he had never disappeared. Urie, Urhen and Alimara were also curious. The news eventually came, when a fishing ship hauled up a corpse instead of a shark. It was identified as Karuq Jakkan, and was given back to the family. They stared on in disbelief. Urie, only 9 years old, was fatherless. It created a massive impact on his education. His marks slipped at first, then decreased dramatically. Urie became the dunce. He never talked to anyone. All his friends looked at him like he was crazy, and maybe he was. It's not like he cared what they thought. He just wanted his father back.

Alimara soon left. She was 15 and ripe for marriage, and married a foreign man from Misthalin. Her husband was in a military faction known as "the Void Knights", so she joined them alongside him. A small celebration was held for the marriage, but little else took place. They were still in grief over the loss of Karuq.

Urie finished school eventually at 14, and began a part time job training some of the slaves. Urhen did little to nothing at home. He left a few years later, too, at 18, to work as a soldier. No reasoning was given, he just went. Urie was left all alone with his mother, Erith, to try and better his rough life. 

Then Hell Came
During the 169th Year of the Fifth Age, Sophanem and Menaphos were both put under quarantine, which was met with curiousity from neighbouring settlements. It was due to a spread of plagues, sent by 'the Devourer', Amascut. It marked the populace with facial red spots, while swarms of locusts entered the city and ate the food. The cows of the city; an important source of food, for both milk and beef, were infected with a disease that left their milk horrible and their meat inedible. Swarms of bloated frogs also came to the city, washed up on the Elid river; giving a threat to the people. The entire city went quiet and harboured themselves, stopping any major projects and even leaving slaves unmanaged. Menaphos soon found out, and a large slave riot began in the poor district which had to be controlled by the city guard.

Urie's overprotective to the point of abusive mother, worried for the sake of her remaining child, also put an entire lockdown on their house. All of those in the family that were left had to stay inside and watch the rest of the city suffer. She knew that they barely had enough supplies and food to last a month or so, but she did so regardless. In fact, she even sent her son to fetch some more food, and if he caught the plague whilst doing so, she would not let him return.

Urie reached adulthood and he was still harboured inside. His mother caught the plague at his 18th, so Urie had to look after her. Even she was weak and sickly, she still managed to hold an iron grip on her family. Despite this fact, Urie was determined to keep her safe and alive, giving her most of the food and water they owned; Urie was beginning to starve and turn weak, too, due to this fact.

Going Solo
"Go; save yourself, and never return!"

- Erith Jakkan

Weeks of hell passed and desperate times called for desperate measures. Urie's mother, Erith, was gradually getting weaker and weaker until she was close to dying. She worried for the sake of her child, and she wanted to set him free, so to speak; to let him run away from this tradegy. So, Erith commanded the remaining child, Urie to go, and never come back. He was defiant and stood against her wishes. He stayed and continued to look after his sickly mother.

Another week later, and disaster struck. Urie, somehow, caught the plague and Erith felt horrible. She commanded him once again to get the hell out, but he protested against it. Meanwhile, when he was cleaning up the floor of the house, she threw a bag at him. With the little strength she had, she went over to him and hit him, continuing to shout verbal abuse until he left. She had a knife in her hand, and Urie thought she was going to stab him; instead, she gave it to him and told him it was for any danger. Then, she hit him once again and marched him over towards the door, before she opened it and threw him out with the bag.

Urie stayed at the entrance and begged to stay, tears in his eyes and desperation in his voice, but to no avail. She ignored him. He finally realised what he had to do, and solemnly trudged to the north entrance of the city, not glancing at any of the ghastly sights visible, before he found a crack in the wall and exited his birthplace..

Northward Bound
For days, days and days on end, Urie trudged through the sand dunes, navigating north with a trusty map that he gained from his family. He had seemed to have picked the worst time to leave the shelter of Sophanem, as a vicious sandstorm crept its way of the desert landscape and settled itself just north of said city; trapping Urie in an absolute hell with little shelter. Whenever he could, Urie paused his journey and admist the sandstorm, he began to make a high sand dune in the shape of a semi-circle, and rest in the area while he drank the few waterskins and ate the few loaves of bread that he took with him.

The Menaphite Pantheon blessed him on the fifteenth day, as Urie, shattered and broken from the lack of food and water and rest, stumbled upon the Elid. He went straight into it, swimming around and washing quite happily before filling up his waterskins and continuing north, having identified this as the Elid river, and thus, Pollnivneach was dead north.

It was not long after when he reached the town, and he began to explore it. He was given strange and horrified looks, though, as Urie still had plague spots ridden over his cheeks. Urie tried to rent a house from a seller, but was charged extra for his looks. Despite the clear discrimination, he paid extra and was allowed to use the house for a while. He settled there and lived normally, although his mother had given him no idea of what to do, and so, Urie was unemployed and his money stash began to decrease.

It was on a visit to The Asp & Snake bar that he met a local woman, who turned out to be Nineveh Es'ir. She clearly didn't like his illness, and thus gave him some potions of her brother's to find a cure. He took one, and strangely, it was the right one; though he didn't know at the time. They introduced themselves, and when she travelled westwards to the Asgarnia region, Urie accompanied her.

The Es'ir Clan
Strangely, the Es'ir had been given a castle by a fellow servant, Vestimir Baudlesti, who had been grieving over the loss of his wife and wanted to rid himself of the casle which kept many memories of her. The Es'ir accepted, and moved their operations over into the castle.

Urie became familiar with several other Es'ir members and servants whilst he was staying. He even found out that his twin brother; Urhen Jakkan, was working as a servant, too! The young man had been considering to stay with them, and after Nineveh having saved his life, he pledged his allegiance to the family for all of time. Nineveh remarked that forever was a long time, but he simply replied that he was determined to do so, anyway.

On one occassion, a stranger entered the castle and was spotted. He was questioned several times his name, but he did not reply, and out of anger, he was promptly murdered on the spot. Urie was rather surprised at the ferociousness of the event. He didn't need to be told, though, and he quickly cleaned up the mess.

Days passed, and little went on until Rosemary Es'ir, wife of Aquila Es'ir, decided to go on a trip to Karamja while Nineveh was absent from the group. Rose had been put in charge and wanted to give the group some fun. They were told to pack for it, and they set off soon after on the boat. To everyone's amusement, Rose, with the help of her son, Smoke, managed to sail the ship herself!

They landed at Musa Point, and headed across the island to Brimhaven. They stopped at the volcano, though, as a few Es'ir members wanted to go inside and check it out, but it was decided not to. They continued on to Brimhaven, and ate some food at the pub. Mostly, after that, everyone did their own thing. Urie guarded the house that Smoke went inside.

Urie, Smoke and another servant began to head back to the ship. Urie got there first, and was confused to see Vestimir alone on the ship. Vestimir threatened him, and when Urie did nothing, Vestimir shoved him off the ship and into the water. None of the others saw this incident, so Vestimir got off with it freely.

Urie regained consciousness and rushed back to the port at Musa Point. He was saddened and terrified with the fact that they had left without him, and it even drove him into insanity. He went down the rope by the volcano, and settled behind some rocks wich became his 'home'. In hope that they would find him, he managed to scrape a rock with a message saying how he was mad and they should leave him. He did not want to become a burden to them.

A few days passed, and a search party, lead by Rose found him in the volcano. Taking no heed of the warning, they talked to him; but failed to recieve anything that made sense. They decided to knock him out and took him back to the castle. He was awoken, and questioned, and Urie gradually regained his sanity. When he said Vestimir had done it, the Es'ir members became angry at his actions, and tried to find Vestimir. Vestimir was no where to be found.

Nineveh returned after a while, and a bond continued to grow between her and Urie. They grew feelings for one another, but none had the courage to admit it. Nineveh found the courage, and admitted it to Urie, but in a way he didn't understand - she said that she 'liked' him. Urie thought she did anyway, so replied that he liked her too. He was unfamiliar with romantic relationships; he had none of the sort back home. He was a bit curious, and so he asked Jade Es'ir what Nin meant. She knew and explained to Urie, who rushed out to find her. He admitted his real feelings for her, and even kissed her. It was certainly the start of something, but as time would tell, it would soon be the end, too.

An Abrupt End
Urie took a trip to Falador; mainly the Rising Sun Inn. He found his old friend and now enemy, Vestimir Baudlesti, waiting there. Urie was never one to fight, and instead of actually attacking him, he just sat down next to him and talked while they each took a drink. He wasn't paying too much attention to his own safety, so Vestimir put a dribble of some poison into Urie's drink, in addition to planting some kind of timer on Urie. Urie was none the wiser, and had it anyway. Vestimir insulted Urie afterwards and Urie responded by pushing him down the stairs. He left soon after.

The group travelled back to Pollnivneach not long afterwards, and the poison soon came into play. One incident involved Urie wandering outside of his house and collapsing, gasping for breath and water. Jade was quick to act and gave him some water before anything worse could happen.

Urie had a feeling he was going to die from it. He went back into his house and just waited. Nineveh came to his house and became very upset. He pleaded for her to not cry and stay strong, but she didn't listen. He tried to comfort her, too. He then asked if he could see inside her Pollnivneach house, and she accepted. He remarked it was nice, and then asked her to do a favour. He said that she should step down from the risky business of running the Es'ir, and just marry and have children and live a real life. She replied that she wanted that to be him. The pair went upstairs inside her house and an intimate event took place.

He left the house a bit later, and the timer that had been planted on him activated, thus teleporting him to an unfamiliar house. Urie threw up after having been teleported for the first time. Curiousity killed the cat, and would soon kill Urie; he began to explore the house.

He had to travel through an underground entrance to the main building, and he found ghastly corpses in said underground area. He ran through before he could throw up again, and emerged in the main building; in the same room as Vestimir, who was sitting smugly on a throne. Vestimir gave him a cure for the poison; having a more appealing way to deal with Urie, of which Urie drunk, before he knocked him unconscious.

Urie awoke with his limbs spread apart, having been tied to a kind of cross. Vestimir then began his torture. He sliced his body; whipped his body, severed the right ear off, severed the right ring finger off, and taunted Urie when he removed Urie's left eye. Vestimir asked him what it was like to lose an eye, having lost an eye himself. Urie didn't reply, and stayed completely silent. Blood trickled out from his mouth due to having bit his tongue so hard.

Vestimir poured oil over Urie, and then set him alight. Urie screamed like he had never screamed before. His screams echoed around the entire mansion, and he didn't stop. He kept going, calling names of his friends and family. This was futile though, and Vestimir continued his practice. Urie's screams fell softer and softer, before not a sound was heard from him. Urie had died before Vestimir could carry out much more.

Rose caught Vestimir in the act, and just when she was about to attack him, Vestimir teleported to Pollnivneach with the corpse. The corpse was hung up and this time, Smoke caught him in the act. He alerted the rest of the Es'ir, and the group hurried over. Urie's body was cut down and left on the sand. The Es'ir then took turns to hurt Vestimir and eventually murdered him, and Urie's body was taken away from the scene and hidden by a slave.

Back to Life
Four years after Urie's brutal death Aquila Es'ir, otherwise known as Nal Sicarius, revived the servant back into life. Urie suffered amnesia and had little to no knowledge of almost everything. Aquila didn't fill him in, either; he left the confused man alone after having completed his job.

Urie eventually began to regain his memory, and since has changed his entire attitude to life. He travelled back to Pollnivneach in hope of finding a member of the Es'ir, but alas, for he could not find any. This has left him in the current state of depression. He then realised he would probably never find one again, and started make a new beginning for himself by working odd jobs around Pollnivneach in return for a bit of money and or food to keep him going.

One usual day, when Urie was sweeping sand out of a shop, he managed to find one of the Es'ir members; Jade Es'ir. After a discussion about past events and a catch-up, Urie was permitted to live along with her. Time passed and life continued, ever so dull.

He became bored of his work after a few weeks, but then a friend gave him some of his wares. He instructed Urie to travel north, to the town of Al Kharid, and deliver and sell his goods to his customers there. This gave Urie the opportunity he desired. A chance to take a break; and so he took it.

In Al Kharid
He soon began to feel a regret after moving his operations to Al Kharid; the town was much duller than where Urie considered his new home, Pollnivneach. In his opinion, it was hardly worth arriving; barely any of the customers actually came to see his friend's stock. He was too focused on selling the products that he had been given, afraid of returning home a failure, to notice that the Emir, Arhus Kahir, resigned from office, and was replaced by a member of the Hawke family, who chose to use the title King instead. Weeks passed and the King seemed to have disappeared. Urie himself had heard, from some drunken youngsters who clearly made no effort to conceal their dislike of the King, that he had travelled west; to Burthorpe. His stock was going nowhere, so he packed in into crates as before and set off, on behalf of himself, to see what the King was up to.

He took the ship route, sailing from Al Kharid to Taverley, which took about a week or so. He had hated the journey so far; he had thrown up several times due to seasickness. At least he wouldn't be doing this again, anyway. He arrived and headed straight northwards, and was about to walk into the castle when a figure stopped him. Unbeknownst to Urie, it was in fact the King; and he had some news. He was old, and had decided to resign from service too; Urie being the first Kharidian he met, he gave the leadership to him, despite Urie's protests. Even on the trip back, where he threw up more, he still could not believe that past few days of his life.

A Sense of Duty
Shortly after his return to Al Kharid, a local Elder proposed Urie wed his eldest daughter. For financial and diplomatic reasons, he agreed to become betrothed to a complete stranger. Naturally, he had his doubts, but once the deal was made there was no going back. He had to go along with it.

Before she even arrived, Urie was already in business. A member of the Detryke family, Seth; a family in the middle of a war between their rival, the Trykes, met with him. Urie agreed that he could reside in Al Kharid to lie low, Seth having said that not a thing would be suspected. Not long after, a freelance slayer, whom Urie imagined was a bounty hunter, requested a job; he was given the job of being the Emir's personal slayer. Then, finally, a shady group of 3 arrived. They turned out to be Sicarius. They had heard that the Emir was offering sanctuary, along with he had the ability to provide them with resources in exchange to be a defence. Thinking nothing of it at the time, he accepted, like he had done with everything else that day.

A day or so later, Urie's fiancée, named Alya-Ali-Hani, arrived in Al Kharid; he was not present at the time to greet her, and he suspected she would probably hate him for that, but he did not mind. He was only 'with her' because he had to be. His adviser, Issar Ankar was there, though, so he did. Urie, despite not being present, soon enough find out what had happened that evening; a Burthorpian had supposedly assaulted his fiancée and his adviser, and Issar had taken the situation into his own hands; he had ordered the execution of him. Not all was bad, though; a diplomat from the distant Renderran Isles arrived and after a discussion, an alliance was declared.

Urie was furious at Issar's reckless act; the threat of war was imminent by the Burthorpians, who would surely not take a death or their own lightly. He discussed what to do with his Guard Captain, the previous Emir; Arhus Kahir and Seth Detryke. They decided to punish him, and that they would. He took it upon himself to deliver the justice. Urie was only angered more by Issar's insolence, and even more so by putting the blame on Alya. With a small audience, he cut off Issar's left hand with his own knife with no regret, leaving him in pain and his table and knife soaked in blood. Urie commanded Arhus to get someone to clean it up and left the Palace.

A member of his audience followed him out and revealed his name; Zaovyr Es'ir. The memories he still remembered flooded back, and Urie thought he was cursed; that the name Es'ir will forever haunt him. He managed to keep his sanity in front of Zaovyr, who became the Grand Vizier, but inside he was troubled.

Urie wrote a letter of apology to Burthorpe, which was sent by a trusty courier. Varis Knives, their King, later responded positively, and they managed to sort out an alliance. Soon after, he recieved a letter from the Coalition, requesting assistance in the fight against the Dragonkin Worshippers. He declined when he sent a letter back. Within the same space of time, Urie decided to promote Seth Detryke to an adviser; and so he did.

The Emir's troubled past caught up with him; a man by the name of Talbot arrived in Al Kharid. When Urie met him, his attitude and appearance was similar to that of Vestimir Baudlesti. Urie figured that Talbot knew, and he was going to kill him. He ordered Zaovyr to "take care" of Talbot; Urie later recieved Talbot's head as a present. Urie had tried to keep his real feelings guised, but he ended up questioning himself. Surely, he was going insane; his past had come back to haunt him. He wasn't fit for the job of running a town. He wasn't fit for anything. He considered suicide; the easy way out.

He eventually calmed down and travelled to Yanille by sea; he met with the local Duke, Darius, and they organised another alliance. Urie considered his actions good; he was keeping Al Kharid in safety from foreign kingdoms. Nevertheless, Urie soon cracked under the pressure, and could take it no more. At the end of the day, in the evening, of the start of "Project Safeguard", he packed his bags and went to leave; he found Zaovyr before him. Urie explained his feelings and eventually granted Zaovyr the title of Emir. He had hopes for him; he knew he could manage it as he certainly couldn't. With that, Urie abandoned Al Kharid, and faced the tough trek home.

Important Interlude
Urie set off without a goodbye to any of those he had called friends or allies. Perhaps the Pantheon disapproved of his decision; a day after his trip through Shantay Pass, and as he was camped out in the desert, its harsh landscape brought upon a fierce sandstorm which he barely got through. It was a serious struggle against his body; he thought he was going to die. After a day of suffering, it died down and he was able to continue back south.

He arrived back in Pollnivneach and checked to see how Jade was faring. After a conversation, Urie discovered she had feelings for him; he had no idea how to respond, but practically pretended he shared the same. He realized he couldn't live a lie and refused to stay with her. He went south again.

The recent Pharaoh of Menaphos and Sophanem died during his trip with no heir; the authorities of the cities had no idea what to do, given their current, desperate situation. They decided to call upon checking documents for previous nobility and royalty. Their search was almost futile until they found records of the Menaphite Champion Jek Jakkan, an ancestor of Urie. They also found Urie's previous experience with ruling urban areas and considered him a good picking. He was contacted and given no choice, Urie had to accept the duty.

Despite the fact he had refused to keep leading people, his reign began prosperous; Urie remembered the cure he had found before and was able to give some to the city, who then copied it. The plague was no more! The twin cities were finally able to break free of their hold and rise up to prosper once more, even if the road up was to take decades. They finally had hope.

Urie still doubted himself. Daily, he prayed to the Pantheon for guidance; one day, his prayer was answered. Alya, his partner from Al Kharid, had found him. He discovered she was pregnant and expecting his child. Urie was astounded; he was to become a father, his life-long desire! He had never felt such a sense of euphoria before. Alya then officially became his wife and Urie looked to the future happily.

Urie's Dark Deeds
On a business trip to Pollnivneach, Urie made a mistake. After his meeting, he took to the Asp & Snake bar for a relaxing session. He was the only patron inside before a woman came in; they had a conversation, despite Urie's previous judgement and lack of wanting to talk, they found they were so similar. Laila, as it were, had been in slavery and had been scarred. Urie felt a strange connection; he had no idea what was on his mind when he allowed himself, a married man, to sleep with her.

Guilt filled him up; he was fit to burst. After an emotional talk, he left Laila and went home, fighting an inner battle with which he was losing. He had no choice but to tell Alya what he had done; she took it better than he expected. She didn't explode, she just quietly left to "discuss things with her father". Urie, the wreck he was, could not cope. She gave him comfort, and now that comfort had gone, along with his unborn child. He sobbed until his heart was raw and resorted to self-harm by flagellation to deal with it.

Dark thoughts niggled in the back of his mind, tempting him to do things he had never done before. When he saw a  whore waiting outside a house at night, he erupted; his blame was forced upon her, and he brutally murdered her. Her partner whom she had just been with saw and Urie killed him too, his vengeance satisfied. The city was put on alert with the two murders and none expected Urie to have done it.

Urie went away once more; he couldn't stay. He went north to Al Kharid, a place of mixed memories for him. If only he had decided not to; he found silks similar to what his family had worn and caused a disturbance between him and the trader, before Nineveh found him. Urie couldn't contain his emotions and practically exploded to her. He didn't understand why she wanted to find him until she admitted things of her past. Urie accepted her, regardless of what she'd done; she also told him of his child, Asyria, and how she felt. It was decided they'd stay together for mutual reasons.

Taking a walk to calm himself not long later, he saw Issar once more; he felt angry that he had been disobeyed after he had explicitly warned him to stay away from him and out of his sight. Nobody else around, and Urie being corrupted, he harshly gave Issar a quick slit of the throat and left him to die in the sand. He felt little emotion when he did it.

Not long after, Nineveh seemed to be distracted by a whistling which she thought was her father's; she was half right and half wrong. It was Kel Sicarius, who seemed to be completely unaware of what he was. Urie did little and took a back seat role as she suspected a plot and called Sicarius including Tyrael and Rai to the scene; Kel fled to the Palace and the group split. Urie went the roof way with Rai and Tyrael, unknowingly being one of the first to witness the Sicarii return. When Rai had repledged his allegiance, Urie left, utterly confused.

Then the Sicarius left and Urie did not know what to do until Nineveh came back; this time, it was to recruit him. It took longer than she wanted, Urie protestant and refusing to her pleas; a group of around a dozen Sicarius appeared and surrounded him. His ultimatum had completely backfired. He had no choice but to join them.

Service to the Sicarii
Immediately, the group went to Port Sarim; they assaulted the area with a stolen ship, blowing smithereens into the port. They soon set off, however, bound for the Kandarin coast; they never made it by ship, however, as when Kel removed one of the masts the ship began to sink. The Sicarius had to swim the rest of the way; it was one of the hardest things Urie had ever done, being a novice swimmer. He detested them already.

They went south from Witchaven, into ogre territory, and then west to the coast; Abbas Kel instructed them to find something, and it was an artefact. An orb, which had the power to control any blooded Sicarius; as a demonstration, Nineveh was forced to almost drown herself. The orb was known was the device of Althar, unknown to most of the current Sicarius. Satisfied, Kel decided to blood three other servii (servants) along with Urie: Arden "Slug" Kazlov, Arin, and Melody Dean. Urie became a Sicarius within hours.

Child of Chaos
"Through blood and fire, you are reborn; and into the fold, we welcome you."

- Sicarius

Strangely, Urie managed to settle quickly into the Sicarius; he figured being resistant would get him killed. The Sicarius travelled back to Misthalin and their old hideout, Draynor Manor, and performed a ceremony in which amulets became an alarm signal for them, which they were always to wear. Urie didn't care much about it.

It wasn't long before a small group, Urie included, went out to get some servii; a bounty hunter by the name of Jacques caught their attention, and in turn, he was caught in the Blue Moon with ease. His initiation was amusing to say the least, including him being woken up by piss. Afterwards, he finally had a moment of peace, and after some banter with Nineveh, she admitted she loved him for the first time. Needless to say, Urie was surprised, but of course he was pleased. Maybe the Sicarius weren't so bad after all.

A few days later, Eravvi, another child, lead a hunting trip to Piscatoris; at first, Urie was sceptical of the idea, but he soon came to be fine with it. The group, who killed an animal, disturbed a pair of bears; while three dealt with one of them, Urie and Nahkriin dealt with the other from behind. It charged and almost killed Nahkriin, but Urie brutally axed the bear and ended its life before it could do the same to Nahkriin. He skinned the bear and kept the pelt.

Around now, the Sicarius got their hands on a fort in the desert. On the hunting trip, they introduced two new servii; Lucie and Miranda. The demon child, Na'kur, instructed servant Jacques to juggle chinchompas which provided some decent entertainment. Soon, they all went back, and Urie shared a meal with Blade Tyrael, whom mocked servant Julia's heritage of Princess of Asgarnia.

It was far too soon before his old friend from Al Kharid, servant Seth Detryke, was murdered in front of his eyes; Urie was unable to save him and vowed revenge. Urie was given the Detryke dagger on his deathbed, and in a commune with Nahkriin and Seth's spirit, he instructed Urie to keep and use it. Seth also said he wasn't going to return.

To make matters worse, the Sicarius also plunged into war with Asgarnia. Urie himself never found out the reasoning, nor did he ask. Things were mostly uneventful and insignificant besides the vigorous training and when, in a meeting with Kel, servant Julia made a threat; she had meant to kill her father, Joe, not Kel, but Urie was instructed to beat her. She was rewarded with a backhand, her face hit against the stone fountain twice, being winded and having her wrist broken. Unsatisfied with some lust for control, Felix also joked that he trimmed the ears of an elven servant, Lucie, and Urie literally did. When Felix joked that they should cut the hair of a servus they called "Bonerhair", since her hair stood on end, she teleported away; the Sicarii did not find her and cared little.

Soon enough, Disciple Arin had discovered something and sent a group consisting of a few Sicarius inside Varrock sewers; they came across many obstacles such as a boulder rolling through a narrow passageway, undead hands, a pool of acid to cross, a family of several large spiders before they came across some dark magi. The group were forced to attack, but in vain, the dark magi managed to escape; his guards, kurasks, were disposed of. Urie even rode one.

Back at the desert fortress, a stranger came; he revealed himself to be Sator Yei and after a hostile opening, discussed teaching the blooded Sicarius Sicaricae magic; a form of magic that can only be used by blooded Sicarius upon other blooded Sicarius through means of willpower. Urie was interested and learnt a few spells, but he was not much of a wizard. In addition, Kel called the Sicarius and they met with Richard Grosvenor and Ehrick Elderon of Asgarnia. The negotiations were shortlived; Ehrick was killed by Ellie and Richard teleported away. He hadn't brought any reinforcements, but some locals decided to join in on the fight and they too died, one by Urie's hand.

To think and reflect on his past, Urie decided to head to Karamja and took a detour to Shilo Village. However, it wasn't long before he was called back; this time, Arin needed him. Nahkriin and Xilen were in a spot of trouble and Urie had to shoot and kill some banana-headed man, which he did. They moved on into the Kharazi jungle to continue but soon after they found a cave of interest, Danté Sicarius requested back-up; then he died. The Sicarius, in rage, killed all but one at the scene and took the survivor as a servus; it wasn't long before he ran off.

Finally, Urie signed up for some mission to rid the Wilderness fortress of a particular annoyance known as Artio, whom was a large, monstrous bear. Urie, along with Na'kur, Jacques, Miranda and Julia, headed northward. They found the fortress to be in a ruined state and the weather harsh, and they soon met Artio. It advanced, felled Na'kur, and Urie shot the beast in the eye with his crossbow, rolling out the way. When he tried to repeat the same action for the other eye, Artio learnt; the bolt missed and Urie was forced to back away while the others tried to stop it in vain. Urie hid behind a tree and threw an axe when it came for him, but the axe did little and Artio felled the tree; it clashed Urie's back as he went to run with his claws before it took his weakened form away in his jaw. It looked bleak until Urie managed to return when the beast had almost killed Na'kur, the rest trapped inside the fort, when he avenged himself and murdered the bear, letting it fall into the pit Na'kur was meant to fall into. Urie pulled him out and the group evacuated, mission complete. Upon their return, Urie and another, Daevi, were made into Disciples of the Sicarius.

Death's Disciple
With Artio cleared out, the Sicarius were able to head back to their fortress in the Wilderness and quickly settled back at what they called home. It wasn't long before they were called to their first mission, under lead of Marshal Domovoi; the group travelled to Rellekka and defended the town from a massive pack of wolves, Urie himself killing at least nine of them. One, likely the boss, proved almost too hard to beat, and most were forced to flee.

The Sicarius often spent time training in the Lexicon when free; the Lexicon was a creation of Althame Sicaria, one of the founders. The Lexicon was a good place to train combat due to the fact when one died in there, it did not affect the person out of the Lexicon. Such events involved combat tactics and strategies; under the lead of Anye, Urie was killed by fire to the face in a game of Capture the Flag. He won under the lead of Domovoi, as expected.

Na'kur Sicarius formed a group consisting of himself, Eravvi, Xilen, Anye, Miranda, Melody and Urie to investigate something of interest to him. The adventure took them to a strange place and they faced several obstacles, before they came face to face with an enemy. All but Melody and Xilen were teleported into some cage where they were tied up, gagged, and naked, forced to do nothing but watch. Needless to say, it was awkward, but they were eventually freed and returned victorious.

Things went quiet, but the occassional appearance of a Wiccan Sicarius, whom were founded by Althame Sicaria. One such encounter lead to the death of the Wiccan at the hands of Ellie due to the attack on Naylim and the family were anxious of an attack. Luckily, the response was not as bad as expected. Kel soon left for an unknown reason. It wasn't long before Rai Sicarius declared the family to be of Wicca ideals. While some of the Sicarius were sceptical of the quick change, it went forth regardless. Urie had no complains, seeing as the Wiccans were Sicarius with morals.

It wasn't always so easy; tension began to rise with the anticipated return of Kel at any time, and Urie was soon asked by Domovoi what he was. Urie answered Wicca and after some conversation, was invited to join the Brotherhood of the Holders of the Tattoo, a form of elite under Domovoi himself. Urie had been recommended by Tyrael and Felix, finding himself joining without much hesitation. He was gifted with a new weapon; a repeater crossbow from the Eastern Lands and special ammunition for it.

Action came straightaway thanks to the return of Kel, who announced a war between the family; Wicca versus Althae. The war even brought in other sects, such as the Wushanko, Acheron and Archipelago Sicarius. As soon as he was inducted to the Brotherhood, he was involved in a plot to kill Danté Sicarius. The plan went well, except it did not go as fully intended; instead of Danté, Jac and Ellie Sicarius were killed instead. Things went insane, everyone questioning the motives of others; ultimately, no one really knew who it was. Thea in particular was devastated by the lost, demanding information. Urie's good intentions forced him to admit his presence, and he was soon able to calm Thea down; she didn't seem to judge him as her anger more focused on Domovoi. Back to her normal state, Thea asked about Urie's relationship with Nineveh and their child, Asyria; as a result of this, it was decided Urie would consider proposing to Nineveh.

 Fights became commonplace and there were several casualties, notably Legendairé Kazlov who was on the Althae side. The Sicarius began to question what they were fighting for, and that was when the Dominus, the highest authority of the Sicarii, arrived. She demanded for Kel to hand over the orb - Althar's device. After the savage brawl, the Dominus was slain, and the other sects were mostly wiped out with the device. The sect became known as the Kelcultii, followers of Kel.

Urie had been absent for a lot of the time, and he found the fact Kel married Thea to be an interesting piece of news. He congratulated Thea, and she told him of Nineveh's return; she had been captured by the Althae beforehand. He was warned she was unstable, but it mattered little to him. She was still often absent.

Marshal Domovoi called the group once and announced they were to hunt after artifacts; the first was to be the Arm of Nal. They found the Arm of Nal in a cavern with some surviving Wiccans and Althae, whom they killed to show the Kelculti's domination. The group faced a figure by the name of Marik and killed him before they exited themselves.

Soon enough, the Kelculti began to return into view of the rest of Gielinor. It was sparked by Domovoi's easy takeover of Burthorpe and Taverley. Tension rose in Kandarin, and the Sicarius were instructed to stay alert and were informed of plans to deal with the potential threat. Meanwhile, the Kelculti had formed a friendship with Straton Kull, and the Sicarius went to Falador to deal with Straton's enemies, the Ryders, at a coronation party. However, it seemed the Ryders did not show.

Afterwards, Urie personally went to overview the progress in a meeting with Straton and a worshipper, Pyralis. It had seemed that things had not gone according to plan. Regardless, Urie moved on, and it wasn't long before betrayal took place.

Once friends with Straton, the Sicarius plotted to eliminate him. They assaulted his home; Straton's wife, Lucy, escaped, but a worshipper and Straton were casualties. This brought the war to a head, and the worshippers declared to be hostile.

Promised with rewards, it would ultimately be Urie's downfall to search Sarim for worshippers to slay; he was ambushed and assaulted by a handful of them. Urie was knocked out and lost his armaments, teleported to Daemonheim and put into the prison room. Elder Urie of the Sicarius became a captive.

The Helpless Hostage
On a daily basis, Urie was interrogated and tortured. Primarily Karme asked him of his motives, Urie sceptical of her and the Worshippers' idea of spreading the influence of their own idol for no apparent gain. She found his sarcastic and brief answers unsatisfactory and, curious of the Sicarius mark on his left wrist, flayed it off; they planned to send it back to the Sicarius as a message, and so they did, blowing up Rai in the process.

Their methods of torture were varied. Urie was often beaten, cut and whipped without remorse. In addition, asphyxia, water torture, denailing, hanging him upside down and their favourite method food-roasting were common. He was abused left, right and centre; Urie never struggled though, merely accepting the pain and his fate.

He became an insomniac. He could never sleep; other slaves and prisoners could never stop screaming, often still replaying in his head. He was starved until he was utterly weak and fatigued; it seemed they were trying to break his hope, but Urie was ever faithful in his god.

Lucy, the wife of the recently deceased Straton thanks to the Sicarius, visited him once. She was not hostile surprisingly and found Urie's regret to be confusing. She explained that Thea had visited her and she would try and help him. Urie, with little other choice for survival, agreed to it.

And so, the lost sense of time passing by soon lead to the end of Urie's captivity. He was interrogated once more by Roach and Pyralis, this time about the location and defences of the fortresses of the Sicarius. Urie was hardly informative, causing Roach to use a special way of his - namely, a hallucinogenic drug, which was forcefed to Urie.

He was told to imagine that he was at his home, Sophanem, but it was destroyed; everyone he knew and loved was dying or were dead infront of him. People were screaming to Urie, begging for help, but he found himself unable to. Urie was then shot in the back with an arrow, falling into the sand; in agony, all he could do was look up to see whom had shot him - it was revealed to be his trusted friend, Thea. Betrayed, it seemed the imaginitive Urie died of the pain.

The next false instance in his mind started with him being dragged into a crowd inside the Sicarius fort by two Sicarius. They mocked him, untrusting of him due to his apparent betrayal and prolonged absence. His name was chanted to die, superior Sicarius demanding him dead. One moved into position to decapitate the demoralized Urie but not before Nineveh rushed out of the crowd, pleading for him to be spared. He could all but watch as she was strangled and ruthlessly piled before his very eye. Then, he himself was killed and everything went dark - he was brought back to reality.

Urie was sobbing wildly, feeling like his heart was breaking. He was in mental and physical agony; everything he knew and loved was gone, there was nothing left for him. Roach and Pyralis tried to comfort him, saying that was a prediction of the future - a future that would happen if Urie did not fight the Sicarius. Regardless, Urie was in no state to fight them, nor would he choose to, and he was fed by the hospitable Roach before he was freed and taken away - home - by Pyralis.

Finally, Freedom - and the Es'ir
Pyralis took Urie home to Sophanem, even in his unwell state. It seemed Pyralis was marvelled by some inhabitants, such as the sphinges. There, Pyralis picked out a random woman who was busy checking over market stock; he said Urie had been attacked by the Sicarius, and although she was sceptical of the idea, she offered to nurse him back to health. It was eventually revealed, come Pyralis' leave, that her name was Kasai and her father, much to Urie's amazement, was Aquila Es'ir. Maybe it was luck, fate, or destiny, but Urie found himself back with the Es'ir.

Even as they were discussing arrangements, a zealous man of the Abdul-Qadir was recruiting men and women for his group. He explained that they had recently had an inner civil war due to religious reasons. After a lot of consideration, Urie and Kasai both agreed to join. However, it wasn't to be - during one of the nights after their introduction to the Abdul-Qadir, Kasai and Urie fleed.

Kasai chose to head back to Pollnivneach while Urie went to Sophanem. He figured he should re-adjust to his old lifestyle, picking up the carpentry business the Jakkan had years back. It was tough; memories of times before, and especially old customers flooded his unstable mind, but he coped well, blocking it completely.

Then, Vaako Sicarius came. It seemed he had found him. Urie did not recognize the westerner at first, up until Vaako showed him his Sicarius mark - now bigger than before, having been "Bladed" in Urie's absence. Urie, thinking he had come to kill him, challenged him, pleading for death. Vaako explained that was not the case. Urie soon calmed down and the two went inside to discuss how he was settling. Urie said he wasn't ready to return to the Sicarius and he had little to pass the time. Vaako, being told about Nineveh, suggested he went to find her. Urie's reactions made Vaako threaten to tell the other Sicarius, even if he ended up not doing so. When it came for Vaako to leave, he was given selection of a few products to give to his woman. He took out a gift and went without paying.

Things started to become dull and the business slowly ground to a halt. Urie decided to head north to Pollnivneach, figuring Kasai was still waiting for his return; she was, but she was also waiting for the rest of the Es'ir family. They had been summoned.

Facial
Urie, like most, if not all other Kharidians, has jet black hair. Nowadays, it's in the form of an intimidating if strange warhawk, unnaturally sticking up to the sky. This is directly in the middle of his scalp; on the sides, it's mostly shaven bald asides from a few coarse lines of shaved hair. His face is a sort of rounded triangle shape. His full-sized dark lips are seemingly always coiled into a solemn frown. Urie has high cheekbones and a definite jawline, which is normally covered with a blanket of rough stubble. A single, piercing amber-brown eye attracts attention; although, it is possible that with the intense gaze given, it can give the looker the chills. The other eye is covered with a dark fabric eyepatch, not out of style, but of out need. This is wrapped tightly around his entire head. In addition to his lost eye, Urie's right ear has also been cut off, leaving a patch of skin covering where the ear should be, which was peviously covered by his hair.

Bodily
Urie stands at roughly 5'10" at best; his body shape, which used to be rather feminine despite his gender, has since developed and became more muscular and masculine; however, he is still thin. He has a soft caramel coloured skin, evident from his birth and living in the Kharidian desert.  His legs appear to be the limbs that add the greatest amount of height to him, looking to be a bit longer than his torso. Some may also notice the fact that Urie's right ring finger is no longer attached to his body, leaving only 3 fingers and a thumb. Only a meagre stump is all that is left from the ring finger. He also has large, deep gashes and thin, pale scars on his torso from his humiliation, variating from cuts from blades and burns from fire. They're abundant on his chest, upper arms, and back; they're not particularly off-putting, but they aren't that attractive either.

While a Sicarius, he does not have a mark on his left wrist; it was flayed off and presented to the Sicarius as a threat during his captivity in the Worshippers of the Dragonkin. As a result, where it once was contrasts with the untouched skin on his left arm. It is uncertain if the mark will grow back in the same place. In addition, he has a vast tattoo of a helmet and crossed swords upon his back to symbolize his joining of the Brotherhood of the Holders of the Tattoo, a form of elite under Marshal Domovoi Sicarius himself. On his back - and front - are long cuts from whipping during his torture, deforming the tattoo. His body, from head to toe, has an assortment of small cuts and violet bruises from physical abuse at the hands of Worshipper torturers.

Crossbow
In progress.



Tomahawk
In progress.

Trench knife
Urie's trench knife is the dagger-like weapon that he uses most in combat, seeing as his athame as other uses and has quite a bit of value. The metal of the trench knife is a tempered steel and the handle is wooden; the handle measures 4 inches long, and the blade measures 6.5 inches long. The blade itself is a triangular stiletto-like design, being slender with a needle point; its main use is for stabbing. It can also be used for slashing attacks, but the blade edges are not as effective at cutting through. Urie received his trench knife from Marshal Domovoi Sicarius with induction to the Brotherhood of the Holders of the Tattoo. The trench knife is likely in the hands of the Worshippers of the Dragonkin.

Sicariian Athame
As with all blooded Sicarii, Urie has his own personal Sicarius dagger, made when Sicarius blood is spilt onto a blade. His is a steel alloy, mixed with another metal to form the dark purple-black colour it is. Urie's athame has a dark clothed handle for comfort. The handle itself is about 3 inches long, and the blade 7 inches long. The athame is a double edged blade with a razor sharp tip; if held in normal (not reverse) grip, it is revealed that the bottom edge of the blade is serrated for extra cutting effect.

Urie's athame is used mostly for ceremonial rituals including things such as blooding or to use his Sicaricae. The athame itself has had some history to it; with Urie's capture, it was taken away from him. It was taken with one of the Dragonkin Worshippers, Rikkardo, to Ardougne; there was a plot to kill Vectis with an explosion, and Urie's athame was to be used as evidence. Things did not go entirely to plan, and Urie's athame is now back in Sicarius hands; specifically, Tyrael Sicarius'.

Personality
Upon first glances, one can assume that Urie is a bitter, aged man, whose life experiences have not been the kindest. This is quite often the case. However, Urie retains a balanced exterior, and it's often uncertain of his actual feelings. He is quick to judge a person purely upon their looks and attitude; almost a hypocritical trait that he has, since he's not that great himself. He is a quiet person, preferring to listen than speak, more often than not having an inner monologue in response.

In all entirity, Urie is fairly unstable. He keeps his troubles inside until they are fit to burst, likely resulting in dangerous incidents such as the murder of Issar Ankar. He feels guilt for the things he's done and he is often frustrated by the fact he cannot do much to make up for his sins. He tends to feel like he is misunderstood, and that people do not see the true side of his - especially in the Sicarius.

Urie's affection for family, friends and lovers are ultimately his downfall. They have the controlling ability to make him do whatever his heart desires even if his thoughts disagree. What are initially seen as good feelings can easily turn into the exact thing Urie hates. His love has made him do terrible things that he regrets, and his good intentions often lead to an outcome that is not as predicted or wanted.

He also harbours a trait of mistrust and uncertainty. This is seen often in situations that mean he has to do things he doesn't usually do; he'll automatically be uncertain about his safety and security. This sense has been heightened by his humiliation at the hands of Vestimir Baudlesti, which made him lose more than limbs and life; he feels he lost his honour, pride, and his dignity.

As the Emir title, and later divine Pharaoh, was given to him, most people believed he should be given a lot more respect, but it often annoyed him when they repeated such gestures such as a bow. Urie, having grew up in a poor area of Sophanem, has never been accustomed to a position of power and respect, and it is but an alien concept to him.

His religious alignment is that of the Menaphite Pantheon, whom Urie used to be incredibly devout to considering his background; his father being a Priest in Sophanem. Since his father's death, Urie has almost turned his back on religion, and gives them less attention that he used to. He sometimes blames them for his misfortune, but equally praises them for his good tidings. Nowadays, he is starting to return back to religion, being a paranoid man. His preferred God is Tumeken.
