Ahvgaeni D. Avencianci

"You can't hope to defeat your enemies if you don't fight with conviction."

- Evgeni Avencianci

Evgeni is a Zarosian Mahjarrat roleplayed by Derp on W42.

He currently heads the magic department at the Academy of Heroes, where he lives with his mate, Arachnea.

Human Form
Evgeni's human form stands 6'1" tall, weighs 172 lbs; he is very fit and muscular. He has a semi-brown tan that compliments his subtle Kharidian features. Evgeni's face has a very handsome and defined jawline, as well as a a very subtle cheek gaunt. His eyebrows are a little on the thick side, and his nose is a little larger than normal with a slight bump on the nose bridge, but nothing that would particularly draw attention in a crowd. His appearance is somewhat Kharidian, as previously noted. Evgeni usually has his hair tied up in a long knot at the back in various styles and wears a small beard most of the time. On his right hand, he wears a Zarosian Cross ring made from demonbane on his index finger and a bloodwood ring on his left middle finger, engraved with Elven symbols.  While speaking common tongue, Evgeni has a light Menaphosi accent, over his dominant Lumbridge accent (Very much New England).

Tattoos

 * He has a Zarosian Cross tattooed over his left pectoral muscle, much like the one on the inside of the Senntisten Temple.
 * A Magic Tree is tattooed on his left shoulder, with the phrase "Attack With Conviction" on a banner wrapped around the tree, in Elven.
 * There's a Seren Diamond on his left forearm, with Elven styled tribal tattoos protruding from it, going up his arm to the base of his tree tattoo, and down his arm to the wrist.
 * At the end of the Elven tribal tattoos on his left arm, on his wrist, is the symbol of Amascut.
 * On the right side of his back is an elaborate flowering cactus with a Desert Phoenix perched proudly atop it.
 * On the back of his lower neck, is the symbol of the Desert Wraiths; a winged Zarosian Cross (The wings representing the freedom of a bird; relating to the freedom of the Zarosians).
 * On his right hand, the word 'blood' is tattooed across his knuckles.
 * The symbol of Tumeken is tattooed around the front part of his lower neck, like necklace.
 * On the right side of his neck, is a medium sized Menaphite Pantheon Symbol.
 * On the left side of his neck is the Drogokishuun Clan symbol.
 * His right arm is tattooed over in lines consisting of mostly 90 and 45 degree angles.  The lines start in the center of his chest, where his heart is, and they flow down his arm almost likes veins; they are supposed to represent the flow of magic within himself.  These lines are a dark red, from the ink being mixed with blood rune dust.

Natural Form
Evgeni's natural form stands at a very tall 8'7", and weighs around 750 pounds. Due to his recent participation in a ritual, he has regained his skin. He has a large Zarosian symbol tattooed on his back, done with the dust from blood runes, and an enchanted piece of lapis lazuli bound into his sternum. Similarly to Kharshai, Evgeni has a small patch of hair on his chin from acting as a human for so long, without changing back.  He has also been described as having a fair complection for a Mahjarrat, much like Sliske and  Kharshai.  The oddly placed gem, enormous height, and facial hair make his appearance extremely recognizable among Mahjarrat.

Evgeni's aliases are Mito Ithell, BloodHand, Eli Evans, Jal-Kih-Mej, Sulivan Archer, and The Bloody Mist of Misthalin

Ceremonial Dragon Alloy Blade (Drev)
Even though Evgeni specializes in various forms of magic, he has been trained in swordsmanship and carries a longsword named Drev, that's made of a runite alloy, being 70% runite, 10% silver, and 20% dragon metal, making the sword's blade appear to be a light maroon/purplish color, kind of nearing dark pink. The reason for the blade containing silver was so that Evgeni could fight vampyres who served Zamorak in the God Wars and in the 4th Age Morytania conflict. The sword is around 5000 years old, but is in extremely good condition, and shows no signs of letting up.

Demonbane Sword (Inkarna - The Living Sword)
Evgeni's demonbane sword is a marvel of smithing and magic. It was a long time project of Evgeni's shortly after coming to gielenor; the project was cut short by the God Wars, however. Evgeni worked on the sword for brief intervals over the course of his life after coming to Gielinor, but it was only recently that he finished it. The sword responds to Evgeni's aura. When a large portion of his aura is channeled into the sword, its blade changes immensely.

Main Form
The main form of the sword is much like a real-world großes Messer, only it lacks a major crossguard and its blade has fancier curve near the tip. Its grey and black blade is 25 inches long; overall the sword is 31 inches in length. It weighs 1.3kg.

Released Form
When charged with Evgeni's Aura, the sword transforms into a demonic looking, curved execution sword, complete with sweeping curves in the opposite direction down the back side of the blade. The sword's length grows considerably, as the blade is 42 inches, and 52 inches overall. The weight, to Evgeni, feels like only a fraction of what it was before. Evgeni estimates it's only 0.84kg in weight while being wielded by him, otherwise the blade is 8kg.

Inferna Staff (Mahiallas)
Mahiallas was Baas' former staff, before Evgeni killed him and took it. When Evgeni is in human form, the Inferna wood staff measures 6' long; likewise, in his natural form it is 8' long. Inferna wood is known for being incredibly strong; it can take multiple hits from an Adamant blade before cracking. Mahiallas is a better catalyst than Evgeni's old Bloodwood staff, and it's also physically stronger; however, unlike the Bloodwood staff, Mahiallas lacks the ease of operation, and therefore requires a more experienced user, and makes losing control of a large spell more possible.

Personality
"Mahjarrat of standard power. He acts like a horny teen aged human male and dresses like a depressed human teenager while appearing like an old Khardian human male... I do believe he was dropped on the head during his childhood."

- Azulra As Azulra The Infernal suggests, Evgeni is a man of many moods. He often comes off as foolish, not in the way that suggests he lacks sense or knowledge, rather, in a sense that he always finds the humour in almost everything, and plays upon it to his amusement, perhaps unconsciously. This attitude is more evident when dealing with other Mahjarrat, and was most likely picked up from his older brother, Ulaghai, with whom he has been long time friends with. Evgeni, however, has been known for being downright serious and inexorable when it really matters. The behaviour is often extreme, and causes him to act impulsively, especially when violence is involved. The other side of his personality is more conspicuous when he is angered, usually by repeated insults to his intelligence from weaker beings, or if something he is attached to is being molested or outright harmed.

Blood Rage
Evgeni's brothers and sisters all suffer from a mental illness unique to the Avencianci family. Originally inherited from Baas' side of the family, Blood Rage causes Evgeni to lose all sense of logic and self control when he's extremely furious. When his Blood Rage kicks in it is instantaneous. The only way to stop a rampaging Evgeni is to beat him into a pulp or hide in a cellar until he tires himself out; unfortunately, given his skill in fighting and stamina, this is often quite difficult and takes a long time. Evgeni experiencing Blood Rage is rare, but recent examples include when Evgeni's wife and daughter were killed, and when Azulra tried to kill Evgeni for the second time.

Freneskae
Evgeni is 9th oldest of his siblings, and was born in the early Second Age along with his twin sister, Zhenya. He spent the first 1000 or so years of his life in Freneskae with his mother, Masozi; his father, Lord Baas; and his 17 brothers and sisters. While still in Freneskae, Evgeni was forced into immediatly learning how to fight using magic and with hand to hand combat, almost reaching "master status" in Blood Magick before coming to Gielinor. He was loyal to his familiy's causes, and regularly participated in the feuds over land and resources that took place in Freneskae. An exemplary event of such feuds that remains firmly in Evgeni's mind is the Avenci Betrayal of the Sinskaal.

Avencianci Betrayal of the Sinskaal
The eternal fires of a thousand millenia of bloodshed and large-scale conflict stain the Freneskae sunset a horrible shade of red and orange, mixed with the malevolent blackness of smoke.  The eerie, red sunlight pours through the windows of Avenci family compound, Castle Kaeleptiel. The stones that make up the castle's interior almost seem to glow and sparkle in the light.  The castle is as quiet as a morgue, as Evgeni, Shaha, and Ibson traverse the massive complex of hallways and corridors, on their way to the meeting hall.  Shaha is the first one to break the silence.

''"So..." She pauses for a moment, yawning loudly. "...Do either of you know why Father wants to see us?"''

''Evgeni's strains his neck to look back, over his shoulder, at Shaha. "I haven't got the slightest idea."''

''Ibson, who is walking in front of Evgeni, turns on his heels and walks backwards for a moment. "It must be somethin' big, though.  I ran into Zhenya, Ikenna, Themba, and Ulaghai on my way down here." He turns forward again, as the three turn to the left, down a dark hallway.''

''Evgeni chuckles, "Damn, it must be pretty important if they got Ulaghai to come." The remark sparks slight grins on the others faces.''

''"Well, I guess we'll find out what this is all about in a second." Says Ibson.''

''They exit the long, dark hallway and come out into the main hall of Castle Kaeleptiel. It is decorated with gold, jewels, and a chandelier made of the silver plated bones of an old family adversary takes up much of the elaborate entry way. The three siblings turn to the left, where the massive, metal trimmed, wood doors to the meeting hall loom over the main hall, even more intimidating than the actual enterance to the castle, itself. Two guards, who were without family and simply blooded Avenci's, stand guard by the doors as they usually do. They both bow as the group approaches, and one speaks out in a very deep, gruff and official tone, "Welcome, my Lords and Lady.  Overlord Baas has urgent instructions for the whole family inside." Ibson nods as the guards open the doors, and the three go inside. The meeting hall was also the throne room in Castle Kaeleptiel, and two massive semi-circle tables faced eachother on opposite sides of the two thrones, with an area cut in the middle to leave space for a massive black carpet that lead up to the throne. Evgeni looks around the room. It appears that they were the last ones to arrive. He also notices that there are three seats taken up by members of the Asutzires family, each one dressed in their grey and orange ceremonial armour, and guarded by fairly tough looking battlemages, carrying flag banners. Evgeni takes his usual seat, at the end of table, left of his mother's throne. Ulaghai, who sits next to him raises his fist out to Evgeni which he responds to by pushing his own fist up against Ulaghai's.''

"How're the days of peace treating you, bro'?", he says in an unsofisticated tone, with a small chuckle thrown in between.

''Evgeni looks up at the grey cieling, and sighs deeply. "It's been monotonous and insipid, to be fair.  Hopefully this meeting is about a battle that we've taken up.  Hell, maybe even a war that we're getting into."''

''"Y'know, it's probably got something to do with Zhenya." He says, nodding over to the Asutzires on the other side of the room. "After all, she's gettin' married to one of those guys."''

''Just as Ulaghai finishes speaking, Baas and Masozi rise out of their thrones. The room falls silent.''

''"You all know that I am not one to waste time, therefore, I will get straight to the proposition that the Asutzires have presented us with." Baas says, sounding very official. "As you all know, one of our own, Zhenya, will be betrothed this season, to Ezenori'Asutzires.  The marriage will strengthen our claim to our current land, and open up the land west of here, allowing for easier trade, and an easier route for war." Baas looks over to Masozi, as she continues his speech. "The Asutzires and the eldest child in the Sinskaal family have an agreement that will stretch our reaches even further in this area, but also create a triple alliance that will hold this area in stone for the rest of eternity." She nods to the Asutzries speakers who sit to the right of Baas. "I will let our guests speak further on this matter."''

The most powerful aura in the room, besides Baas' comes from the Asutzires who stands up to speak.  ''He is extremely tall for a Mahjarrat, even more so than Evgeni, who was around 8' tall. His ceremonial armour is decorated with medals and encrusted with jewels that compliment the grey and orange colors of the Asutzires family. The massive pauldrons that rest upon his shoulders create an illusion that makes his head appear smaller than the rest of his body. His blue eyes gaze over the room for a moment before he begins speaking.''

''"Thank you, Lady Avenci." He bows to her. "I am Lord Naesus'Asutzires, patriarch of the Asutzires family.  I do hope in time, that we will get to know eachother well, both on and of the battlefield, as allies." He turns his head to Baas, suggesting that he's adressing him, specifically. "I understand that your family has been a longtime ally of the Sinskaal." Baas responds by nodding, seeming uninterested. "I have come to you, today, Lord Baas to ask a great favour of you and your family; one that will seal our future alliance.  As you know, our family's main strength has never been in military action, that is why I wish to ask you for assistance.  As you may have heard, the eldest son in the Sinskaal family is plotting to overthrow his... old man, which will allow him to become the new patriarch.  I have a document from him, here." the delegate next to Naesus offers a scroll to him, which he takes whilst continuing with his speech. "The document claims that if either of our families assists him in accomplishing his goal, their previous alliance with both of us will remain honoured, and also include more benifits that will make way for our unoficially planned, Triple Alliance."''

''Baas nods to the scroll, "Bring that to me." Naesus hands the scroll over to one of his guards who quickly walks it over to Baas. He reaches his hand out and snatches it from the guard. Quickly pulling it close, he unrolls it and his orange eyes skim over it. He looks up at Nasesus. "So, are telling me, that you want us to help you by betraying an old friend of mine, who has been very generous in the past?" Everyone in the room looks at eachother nervously. Naesus speaks up. ''

"Well, I assumed that the future benifits would-" 

''Baas cuts him off with a roar of sinister laughter. "Of course the benifits outweigh any friendly history that we previously had.  That old man was weak, and needed to go.  We'll gladly help you and the Sinskaal boy, as long as we get the Triple Alliance like we discussed."  He looks over to the table where the 16 Avenci children (with one empty seat) are seated. "All of you are dismissed.  I'll announce whom I'm sending tomorrow, and brief them accordingly." With that, he rises out of his thrown and walks over to the table where Naesus sits. He goes over the details of their agreement in a whisper, as everyone else piles out of the room.''

Evgeni, Babirye, Ulaghai, Ibson, and Themba split off from the group, as they head to their rooms in the right wing of the castle.

''"I hear there are some pretty tough badasses in the Sinskaal family.  I hope father picks me to go with the assassination team." Says Themba, as she streatches her muscular arms. "I haven't kicked anyone's ass in a while."''

''"Don't get too confident.  The ones who get to go aren't only going up against the Sinskaal's guards, but also the old man, himself.  He's over 30,000 years old, and is not one to be taken lightly." Babirye nods her head to Evgeni. "I hear he controls blood like Evgeni does, and probably better too."''

Evgeni builds on Babirye's comment, "He isn't just some old man.  His name is Kazglu; one the most powerful blood mages in Freneskae.  And don't let dad fool you, Kazglu is better than he is.  Then again, so am I.  If anyone's going to fight him, it'll be me."

Ulaghai responds in his usual humorous tone, "Aye, stop bullshitting yourself, Evgeni.  You couldn't fight your way through wet paper with that magic of yours."

''With a slight grin on his face, Evgeni turns around and pushes Ulaghai into the wall. "At least I spend my days doing something useful, instead of fucking the chambermaids from dawn 'til dusk." He says.''

''Ulaghai is about to respond, but is cut short by Ibson. "Don't deny it.  We all know it's true; you little man-whore." The comment gets a laugh out of the two sisters. Ulaghai simply shrugs and nods his head in agreement, before turning off into another hallway.'' ''"What a character." Mutters Evgeni. The four siblings go their seperate directions, retiring to their respective rooms for the evening. ''

The morning is sunny, and the heat has already started to bake everything outside of the magic barrier surrounding Castle Kaeleptiel. Evgeni is already up, training in blood form outside the castle grounds in the ''calescent heat. In Blood Form, Evgeni is only a bloody silouhette of a mahjarrat body, devoid of any features or defining characteristics. He channels his aura through his bloody form with ease, transfering it to his feet, allowing him to flash expeditiously from rock to rock, smashing each one in half with the solidified blood spike on his arm. A lizard stirs beneath a rock, and Evgeni's arm stretches out like a whip, impaling it with the spike; he spreads his aura into its body and expands it instantly, causing the lizard to explode. Unable to hold his form any longer, Evgeni materializes into his natural form. He drops to his knees, gasping for air. He senses someone approaching.''

''"I've never seen you do that before." Said a familiar voice.''

''Evgeni looks up. It was Zhenya, his sister. "Hey, Zhenya.  What do you need?" He says, "I'm a little busy."''

"Dad wanted me to tell you that you're on the team being sent to destroy Lord Kazglu."

''"Is that so..." He seems to drift off into thought for a moment, "Who else is going?"''

"Just you, Themba, and Ulaghai.  Naesus also wants my "beloved" Ezenori to go with you."

"Never met the guy.  When did you two get engaged?"

''"Just last week." She sighs, "This is all going so fast."''

"What do you think of this Ezenori guy?"

"He's kind of like you too be honest.  I think you're going to like him."

''Evgeni scratches the end of his left horn, and looks out into the Freneskae desert. Despite being so hostile, there's a certain beauty about it. "Well, I guess I had better go to the briefing." He says.''

''The meeting hall was darker than the day before; only a few candles lit the center of the room. It looked like Evgeni was the last one to arrive.''

''"About time, Evgeni." Said Ulaghai.''

''"It doesn't matter; let's just get this started." Replied Evgeni.''

''Baas interrupted the two brother's chatter. "Sweet ancestors! Pay attention, you oafs!" He slammed his hand against the arm rest on his throne, and pointed to Ezenori. "You see here, my future son-in-law knows where it's at.  He showed up EARLY to make sure that he didn't miss anything."''

''"Just following your orders, Lord Baas." Said Ezenori, smuggly.''

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni and Ulaghai shot him dirty looks. Ulaghai whispered in Evgeni's ear, "What a piece of goody-fuckin'-two shoed shit."''

<p class="query_h1">''Baas snapped his fingers and pointed at Ulaghai. "You!  I don't give a muspah's ass what you think.  Regardless of our opinions of eachother, however, let's continue on with what you came here for:  as you know, you're all going out kill Lord Kazglu'Sinskaal, patriarch of the Sinskaal family.  We're honouring our agreement with the Asutzires, here, so I want this task completed quickly so that we can focus on getting Ezenori married to Zhenya."''

<p class="query_h1">''Ezenori grinned, and Evgeni just shot him another dirty look. Baas continued his speech.''

<p class="query_h1">"Tonight, when the moon is at its height, you four are to infiltrate the Sinskaal's castle, preferably quietly; you are then to eliminate Lord Kazglu with extreme prejudice, along with any resistance that you come across if you fuck up and break stealth.  How you go about completing this task is up to you four.  Any questions?"

<p class="query_h1">''Ulaghai raised his hand. Baas sighs and asked: "What is it, Ulaghai?"''

<p class="query_h1">"Yeah, I've got a question.  Can I use the bathroom?"

<p class="query_h1">''Bass slapped his palm against his forehead and dragged it across is face. "You're all dismissed." He said.''

<p class="query_h1">''Themba, and Evgeni followed Ulaghai out of the meeting hall, both chuckling intensely. Ezenori stayed behind.''

<p class="query_h1">"Don't worry, Baas," He said, "I'll take care of them."

<p class="query_h1">"Good.  You're the most promising one here."

<p class="query_h1">''Later that afternoon, the four assassins gathered outside Kaeleptiel's grounds. Evgeni was dressed in his studded leather armour, with abyssalbane plates acting as a tasset, running down his thighs and on the shoulders of his top; his short, curved blade rested horizontally in its sheath on the back of his belt. Ulaghai and Themba wore their usual heavy armour. Themba had her flamberge, and Ulaghai had his flails. Ezenori was armoured up in a leather coat, lined with chainmail. All he had as a weapon was his staff. The four comrades circled up.''

<p class="query_h1">''Ezenori began laying the plan down confidently. "Alright, here's the deal.  The Sinskaal have a barrier put around their compound to prevent us from teleporting in.  However, its not as advanced as the ones that your family, or mine has.  It's being maintained by four mages that take regular shifts.  When the shift change happens, the barrier is down for about  3/4ths of a second.  That'll be our chance to get in."''

<p class="query_h1">''"Who fuckin' put you in charge, Mister Fancy Lad?" Said Ulaghai in a mocking tone.''

<p class="query_h1">"Your father did, since I'm the more mature one here."

<p class="query_h1">"Oh, why you son of a bi-" Ulaghai is interrupted by Evgeni, who grabbed him by the shoulder.

<p class="query_h1">"Lemme at 'em Evgeni, I wanna take his head off."

<p class="query_h1">''"Cool it Ulaghai.  If we don't work together we'll all get killed." Said Themba''

<p class="query_h1">"Themmy's right; we've got one shot at this, and we aren't going to screw up.  Right Ulaghai?"

<p class="query_h1">''With a deep sigh of annoyance, Ulaghai replies to Evgeni. "Fine, I'll participate willingly."''

<p class="query_h1">"Good.  Now that we all understand eachother, let's begin our trek to the Sinskaal's compound."

<p class="query_h1">The four of them get to their feet and begin their long journey to the castle.

<p class="query_h1">Evgeni, Ezenori, Ulaghai, and Themba arrived at the Sinskaal castle the following evening, when the moon was at their backs, which also happened to be the time of the shift change.  They all huddled behind a rock where they had a clear view of the tower where the mages were trading their duties off. Ezenori watched intensely and prepared to make the countdown until they had to teleport in. The moment arrived shortly.

<p class="query_h1">"Alright, this is it, get ready to teleport as far in as you can on three.  One... two... THREE!"

<p class="query_h1">''The four Mahjarrat teleported inside the barrier quickly. They landed within what appeared to be a private garden of some kind; quite close to Kazglu's spire. Evgeni's head pivoted in all directions, checking for hostiles.''

<p class="query_h1">''"It's all clear." He whispered. "Ezenori, let's see the map."''

<p class="query_h1">Nobody responded.

<p class="query_h1">''"Ezenori...?" Evgeni turned around completely and realized that Ezenori wasn't there.''

<p class="query_h1">''"Aww, shit.  Mister Fancy Lad's missing in action already." Whispered Ulaghai.''

<p class="query_h1">''All of a sudden, a loud agonizing scream errupted from an area close by. It sounded like Ezenori. Evgeni immediatly attempted to contact Ezenori via telepathy.''

<p class="query_h1">"Ezenori, where the fuck are you?"

<p class="query_h1">''Ezenori's response was out of focus, and hard to make out. "Shit... oh shit.  I didn't make it through the barrier in time.  It closed on the left side of my body...  my damned arm and leg are gone.''

<p class="query_h1">"Dammit, Ezenori, where are you?"

<p class="query_h1">"I'm... ah shit... I'm in some garden.  There are guards closing in, Evgeni, just go on without me."

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni sighed and rubbed brow. "No, Ezenori.  We're bringing you back, for the sake of this alliance, and for Zhenya."''

<p class="query_h1">''Ulaghai and Themba looked at Evgeni eagerly. "Alright bro', what's happening?" Asked Ulaghai.''

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni looked over to him. "Ezenori's in this garden somewhere, and he's wounded."''

<p class="query_h1">"We're leaving him, right?"

<p class="query_h1">"No, dammit.  Think about the grand scheme of things, Ulaghai.  We need Ezenori alive!"

<p class="query_h1">"Well I'm not going to rescue him."

<p class="query_h1">"No, you have to.  Themba's got better aura control, and we're scaling the wall to get to Kazglu."

<p class="query_h1">"Fuck, I don't want to, Evgeni.  Not for him, anyway."

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni's right hand curled up into a fist and lashed out at Ulaghai with incredibly speed, striking him square in the jaw. "I've had enough of your selfish bullshit!  This isn't about you!"''

<p class="query_h1">''Ulaghai stared into Evgeni's crimson eyes with a new found respect, of all things. Never before had Ulaghai heard Evgeni talk to anyone like that, especially him. He rubbed his jaw and got to his feet. "Fine, Evgeni.  I'll see you on the other side of the barrier.  Don't fuckin' die.  We need you."''

<p class="query_h1">''"No worries there, Ulaghai." Said Evgeni, as him and Themba also got to their feet.''

<p class="query_h1">''Ulaghai pulled both of his flails from the harness on his back, and ran off into the gardens screaming profane taunts at the top of his lungs. Themba and Evgeni just looked at eachother and shrugged, before darting off towards the spire where Kazglu was supposed to be. As they approached the base of the spire, the two of them focused their auras into their feet, and began running straight up the vertical wall. Evgeni was slightly ahead of Themba, and running at an incredible speed. Without warning, the section of wall between Evgeni and Themba exploded. Evgeni stopped; his aura keeping his feet firmly placed against the wall. In the debris, he saw a shaded figure dart from the hole and down towards Themba. It was hard to hear but he could hear Themba yelling to him.''

<p class="query_h1">"Evgeni!  Keep going!"

<p class="query_h1">''As the dust cleared, Evgeni saw her wrestling with another Mahjarrat on the side of the wall. He grunted, and turned his head to look up the wall. He was close to the top. Without looking back, he began sprinting up the side of the wall.''

<p class="query_h1">''Themba watched him sprint away. "Go Evgeni.  Complete the mission." She thought. Her attention was directed back to the Mahjarrat in front of her as she felt him charging magic.''

<p class="query_h1">''"I'll smear you guts all over the wall, bitch!" Yelled the Mahjarrat.''

<p class="query_h1">''He released a powerful bolt of lightning a few feet away from Themba. It hit her head on, and disrupted her aura flow, causing her to fall off the wall. The Mahjarrat released the aura in his feet with a mighty blast that sent him rocketing after her. He collided with her in mid air, and rode her into the ground below. Moments before impacting, Themba was able to generate a weak barrier around her body that saved her from the deadly impact. ''

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni reached the top of the spire; he crashed through one of the large stained glass windows at the peak, and tumbled into Kazglu's throne room. The room was large and made of dusky, burnished stone. A long red rug stretched across the length of the room, and ended at a set of about 20 steps that led to Kazglu's osseous throne. He sat upon it, looking high and mighty. His purple eyes gazed down at Evgeni; both figuratively and literally. Evgeni and Kazglu stared into eachother's eyes for what seemed like hours, and not either of them uttered a single word. Finally, Kazglu rose from his throne and descended the steps. He spoke without concern in his voice.''

<p class="query_h1">"You're obviously here to kill me; or am I somehow mistaken, young one?"

<p class="query_h1">"You're not mistaken.  Your life ends tonight, Lord Kazglu."

<p class="query_h1">''Kazglu smiles faintly, and he walks over to a glass table with a bottle of liqour and a few glasses on it. Evgeni's eyes follow Kazglu's every movement as he pours the cyan colored beverage into two of the glasses.''

<p class="query_h1">"What's your name, son?"

<p class="query_h1">"None of your concern."

<p class="query_h1">"You know mine... It's only fair that one knows the name of the one that takes their life."

<p class="query_h1">"The name's Ahvgaeni."

<p class="query_h1">"Ah, Ahvgaeni.  I've heard about you.  Quite skilled in Blood Magick are you?"

<p class="query_h1">"You could say that."

<p class="query_h1">"Tell me, did my eldest son send you to kill me?"

<p class="query_h1">Evgeni remained silent.

<p class="query_h1">''Kazglu smiled one of his soft, decietful smiles once again, "Well then, Ahvgaeni, would you care to join me for a drink?" He said.''

<p class="query_h1">"I came here to kill you, not to get wasted."

<p class="query_h1">"You're very confident in your abilities, and that you'll kill me."

<p class="query_h1">"That's because I know what I'm capable of.  Besides, I recall you saying that you wanted my name so that you could know who killed you."

<p class="query_h1">"That statement could go either way, Ahvgaeni.  Let me tell you something: we're all embodiments of our experiences; which is, as you should know, the only form of true knowledge.  Experience changes who we are; it molds us into its image.  You may not like what you become through experience, but as life goes on, you learn to accept; you embrace it, in some cases.  When I look into your eyes, Ahvgaeni, I see into your soul.  Your whole life is laid out in front of me, like an open book.  What I see inside you, is a lack of experience.  You have the knowledge to make yourself great, but you just lack the experience to make it valid."

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni drew his sword and charged at Kazglu. "If I want philosphy, I can look in a goddamn book!" He swung his sword down at Kazglu's left shoulder, but Kazglu simply extended his left hand and grabbed the blade mid-swing, without drawing even the slightest amount of blood from himself. He sipped from the glass in his right hand; the glass with the cyan colored liqour. "You're ignorant as fuck, son; and your arrogance blinds you." Evgeni could feel Kazglu pouring his aura into his blade. "Let's keep this magic only." Kazglu expanded the aura that he had built up in Evgeni's blade, causing it to explode into metallic dust. Evgeni dropped the hilt, and backed up, charging his aura into his hands. Kazglu threw his empty glass at Evgeni, just slightly above his head. Evgeni's eyes wandered up to look at the glass for only a second, but by that time, Kazglu was already upon him. He threw a punch with the force of a jackhammer into Evgeni's right set of ribs, stunning him temporarily and allowing an opening for further attacks from Kazglu. He followed up with another quick jab to the same spot, then with a knee to his left set of ribs; to finish it off, Kazglu rammed his skull into Evgeni's, sending him falling back, dazed.''

<p class="query_h1">"Come on, kid.  Show me what you've got!  I thought you were gonna kill me, not be my punching bag!"

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni wiped a small drip of blood that had formed in the corner of his mouth, and released the aura, that had built up in his hands, in small bursts, like a machinegun. Kazglu's speed was so great, that he seemed to phase in and out of physical existence as he dodged hundreds of projectiles. The ones that he didn't dodge, he'd disperse by colliding it with the aura in his hands, which was of greater strength. Growing frustrated, Evgeni combined the last bit of power that he had stored in each hand into a single horizontal wave that pulsed towards Kazglu. He dodged the wave by jumping over it, but little did he realize, that Evgeni had come in behind the wave. Evgeni slid underneath Kazglu as he jumped, and as he came back to the ground, he was unable to dodge Evgeni's aura charged kick. It connected with Kazglu's chest, and released a pulse of energy that rattled his insides and burnt the outside of his armour. Evgeni rolled on to his feet, and quickly created four water javelins around himself; he launched them all at Kazglu and froze them in mid air. Still offguard from the kick, Kazglu side stepped, but not with the speed that he possesed earlier. One ice javelin skimmed his shoulder, and the other pierced his chest only barely, due to his armour. Evgeni came running in, and delivered a two foot, flying kick to the javelin lodged in his armour. The powerful kick not only pushed the javelin further into Kazglu's flesh, but it also knocked him over.''

<p class="query_h1">''"Fuck!" Exclaimed Kazglu, in rage. He grabbed the end of the javelin and snapped its end off. Evgeni attempted to deliver an ear clap, charged with electricity, to Kazglu's head as he got to his feet, but Kazglu grabbed both of his arms and pulled Evgeni into his knee. The repeated trauma that Evgeni had sustained to his chest earlier did not go well with the knee to his chest. He coughed up a large amount of blood, as most of his ribs were shattered. Unable to walk, Evgeni lay limp, his arms were still being held on to Kazglu as he got to his feet. "You dumb fucking kid.  You thought you could take me.  Bah!  You're nothing but talk!" Kazglu pulled Evgeni to his feet by his arms, and kicked him in the chest once more, dislocating his left arm, and delivering heavy damage to his chest once again. As Kazglu let go of Evgeni's arms, he crumpled to the floor. His insides felt like jello with pieces of rock floating in it, and his arms felt no better. Kazglu loomed over him.''

<p class="query_h1">''"Take note: this is experience." Kazglu said, with a sneer across his face. "Too bad you wont live to learn from it." Kazglu began stomping on Evgeni's head. With each blow, Evgeni could feel his eyes being pushed from their sockets. As his demise grew near, Evgeni drifted off into his mind's eye. He went over everything that he knew, desperatly trying to find anything that he could use to kill Kazglu. He finally remembered his trump card:  Blood Form. Out of breath, Kazglu paused his violent assault on Evgeni for a moment. A large pool of blood was forming under Evgeni's head. The blood began to creep up on to his body, wrapping his injured body in its shroud. The rest of Evgeni's flesh seemed to bubble and melt into blood, as well. In a matter of seconds his body was completely transformed into a liquid state, being held together by his aura.''

<p class="query_h1">''Kazglu smirked wickedly. "What's this, Ahvgaeni?  Your ace in the hole?"''

<p class="query_h1">''Evgeni manipulated his liquid body into a standing position. His height was shorter than before, and his body was simply a silouhette of a humanoid, void of any defining features. The blood that made up his form bubbled and steamed as his faceless head pointed in Kazglu's direction. Without the slightest movement, Evgeni channelled his aura into his legs, and sprung forward so fast that one would've thought he was teleporting. His arms formed into hardened spikes as he lunged out at Kazglu's weak point; the hole in his armour from the ice javelin. The blood spike penetrated the ice, and shattered it inside Kazglu; Evgeni's arm continued its path, and burst out his back. It didn't hit any major organs, but it was a definite blow to Kazglu's morale. Enraged, Kazglu tried to grab Evgeni's head, but his hand passed right through his form. Evgeni withdrew his arm from Kazglu's chest, and jumped back and forth, lunging up into Kazglu's armpit with another stab. It penetrated the weak armour, and went straight through his arm, exiting out his shoulder. Evgeni could feel Kazglu attempting to power his aura into his blood as his arm entered him. It was overpowering and there wasn't much Evgeni could do. Kazglu expanded his aura while it was in Evgeni's arm, causing the blood that made it up to scatter. The problem with Evgeni's blood form is that he couldn't just make blood, so what was scattered by Kazglu's retaliation would have to be gathered after the battle. Down one arm, Evgeni hurtled backwards to rethink his strategy at a distance. He was growing tired and he knew that he couldn't hang on to this form forever. He bolted forward, with his aura powering his movement; he tried to stretch his arm forward to strike Kazglu while his body was still far away, to throw him off, but it wouldn't cooperate. All of a sudden, Evgeni burst back into his natural form, mid-attack, and now only wielding his bare fist. Evgeni saw the whole moment play out in slow motion. He saw a satisfied sneer creep on to Kazglu's face as his leg fluctuated with energy. With perfect timing, Kazglu spun around, lifting his leg high into the air; when it came back around, the bottom of his metal boot connected perfectly with the left side of Evgeni's head, it let off a burst of energy, throwing him turbulently to the right, and into a wall. Evgeni's previous injuries applied again, along with the damage to his head. He lay on the floor, watching Kazglu.''

<p class="query_h1">''"That was pretty good, kid.  But not good enough.  If only you could've held that form longer, you probably would've won." Said Kazglu, as he charged an energy beam into his left palm. Beaten and broken, Evgeni closed his eyes and awaited his impending demise; until he had a sudden realization. His blood was still inside Kazglu. With the last fraction of his mental strength, Evgeni focused in on the blood that was left in Kazglu's shoulder. With ease he manipulated it further into the left side of Kazglu's body, and down into his arm. Kazglu's beam was now at full strength, and he was ready to release it. Evgeni commanded his blood back to himself; the sudden pain of the blood droplets tearing through his flesh and bones at inordinate speeds caused Kazglu's powerful energy flow to buckle in on itself, creating a powerful explosion within his arm. The entire left side of Kazglu's upper torso exploded with grisly resolve. It must've taken Kazglu a while to register what had happened, because all Evgeni saw was him standing upright and his exposed rib cage, with blood poured from profusely from it. Kazglu fell back on to the floor like a plank of wood. Evgeni knew that he was finished. The pool of blood from Kazglu was so great, that it was already at the tip of Evgeni's feet. He just continued staring forward with disbelief; completely ignoring the signs of Kazglu's aura. Bloody strands suddenly errupted from the pool by Evgeni's feet, and encased his right leg like snakes. The strands began constricting his leg, as they slowly creeped up higher and higher. Evgeni screamed as his right leg was snapped like a twig from the thigh down. He tried to conjure up any remaining power that he had, but it was hopeless; he had fought himself dry. In a last ditch effort to save himself, with the bloody strands now constricting his torso, he grabbed a fire poker from the fireplace next to him, and hurled it like a javelin at Kazglu's body. With surprising accuracy, the poker speared Kazglu's exposed spleen. Kazglu let out a shrill of pain, followed by deep breathing. The bloody stands on Evgeni turned back into a liquid state. He took a deep breath, himself.''

<p class="query_h1">''"Ahv-- Ahvgaeni... come here." Whispered Kazglu. It was a miracle that he was still alive. Evgeni flopped on to the floor, and inched his way over to Kazglu like a worm.''

<p class="query_h1">''"Now you-- you've got the experience to go far, kid." With those last words, Kazglu quietly passed away. His body burst into a pulse of aura, that returned to the fabric of Freneskae. Evgeni just sat there for what seemed like hours; going over everything Kazglu had said to him, over and over again. He was suddenly broken from his trance by a gentle hand on his shoulder. He looked up to meet the eyes of  Themba. She was bloodied and bruised, but alive. Behind her, stood Ulaghai, who was holding up Ezenori. Evgeni could see the cauterized stumps of Ezenori's arm and leg.''

<p class="query_h1">''"You look like hell, Evgeni.  That old man give you a beating, or what?" Yelled Ulaghai.''

<p class="query_h1">''A little grin formed in the corner of Evgeni's mouth. "You should've seen the other guy." He yelled back.''

<p class="query_h1">''Themba bent down and put her arm around Evgeni. She pulled him to his foot; his left foot, that is. Evgeni grunted as pain shot through almost his entire body. "Let's get the hell out of here..." said Evgeni.''

<p class="query_h1">''"We can teleport.  Kazglu's son's loyal troops are securing this whole place as we speak, so we've got a safe exit." Replied Themba. She helped Evgeni over to Ulaghai, and began powering up to teleport the four of them as far away as possible. ''

<p class="query_h1">''"I misjudged you, Evgeni.  I'm sorry." Said Ezenori.''

<p class="query_h1">"It doesn't matter; besides, I'm sure that you'll see things differently now, because of this whole thing."

<p class="query_h1">"How so?"

<p class="query_h1">"I don't know how to explain it right now, but you'll see what I mean, in time."

<p class="query_h1">Themba released the teleport, transporting the group almost all the way back to where they started their journey.

<p class="query_h1">''Over the next year, Ezenori and Evgeni's wounds healed; Ezenor was betrothed to Zhenya, and Evgeni was back to training harder than ever. The words which Kazglu spoke to him were burned into his mind. They were what got him up in the morning, and they were what made him strive to better his skills. Kazglu's words remain with him to this very day, and Evgeni passes them on to his students at The Academy of Heroes.''

<p class="query_h1">The End.

<p class="query_h1">

Arrival in Gielinor
Sometime in the middle of the second age, when Evgeni was about 1000 years old (give or take a few hundred), he and most of the other Mahjarrat came to Gielinor with Icthlarin. Evgeni, along with the other Mahjarrat, were used to fight the forces of Zaros on behalf of the Menaphites. When Icthlarin released the Mahjarrat, and they were taken in by Zaros, Evgeni's talents in magic, especially his in-depth knowledge and experience with blood magic got him a spot as one of Zaros' generals in charge of a few small, and elite magic units. Evgeni also spent a long amount of time teaching Blood Magick at a school in Senntisten.

Evgeni's life, however, was changed forever on the night of Zaros' betrayal. He was at Zaros' palace, on business with another general, Necris, at the time of Zamorak's attack. The two of them heard the sounds of magical explosions and the clanging of metal from the enterance of the palace and rushed out to see what was going on. To their surprise, the guards were in combat with other Mahjarrats who were dressed in a red color scheme, and in uniforms that were unfamiliar to them. Evgeni and Necris both jumped into the battle instantly, Evgeni using his blood magic to tear through the enemies like paper and Necris using his double bladed sword to dismember the attackers in rapid succession. The two of them fought off waves of dozens of attackers, but Necris eventually fell at the hands of Zamorak's followers, and Evgeni was backed up against a wall, wielding his sword in one hand, and his staff in the other. He fought a hundred men, and claimed the lives of dozens of them, but he was eventually hit by an extremely powerful wind surge and thrown through the wall behind him where he fell 4 stories into a pond.

The God Wars
After Evgeni took a plunge into the pond, he waited for about 5 minutes, then he surfaced slowly to find that nobody had come to see if he was still alive. From down below he looked up at the palace and saw lights flashing from inside Zaros' throne room. He got out of the lake to fight his way to Zaros' throne room, but decided against it as he was injured with two arrows through the shoulder and one in his thigh, a few cracked and broken ribs, fractured fingers and wrists, a dislocated arm, twisted ankles, a minorly cracked skull (forehead), a seriously burned upper torso, broken collar bone, and a few dislocated vertibrae in his spine.

He fell back to Uzer where he stayed to rest and heal himself, and eventually met up with a group of survivers, most of whom previously served under his command, and they told him what had happened, and warned him that Zamorakian forces were exterminating those loyal to Zaros. Instead of running, Evgeni and a small group, which eventually grew to numbers in the high hundreds roamed the desert and engaged in guerilla warfare with Zamorakian forces and rescued loyal Zarosians while they were at it, eventually becoming known as the Desert Wraiths, who were at the time, known for ambushing patrols from beneath the sand, and for riding kalphites.

"The first time we were hit by the Desert Wraiths, we were taken completely by surprise. I was near the front of our convoy, and all I saw was the lead camel disappear into an explosion of sand, followed by the horrid screeching of a kalphite soldier. Before we had time to react, pockets of sand began exploding all around us, and blasts from various forms of magic began raining out of the debris from all sides.  In a matter of seconds, most of my company had been either killed or wounded; in my case, a kalphite burst from the ground in front of my camel, and killed it, throwing me backwards.  I hit my head on a rock, and as I laid in the sand, dazed, I looked through the clearing sand and smoke.  I saw that the kalphites which had attacked us were saddled, and carried riders and supplies on saddlebags.  I passed out shortly after."

Evgeni and his resistance fighters harrassed Zamorak's army for thousands of years, until the destruction of Uzer around the year 3500. During the battle, many of the resistance group's fighters were killed, and Evgeni was wounded by Thammmaron. Seeing no hope in victory, Evgeni and a handful of resistance members fled the city to Ullek.

All the energy in Evgeni was gone, and he entered hibernation, along with the dozen or so remaining resistance members, in order to regain their power. Evgeni and the rest hibernated for a long time until the fall of Ullek, where he and everyone else were awoken during the battle. The group went to the surface to see Balfrug Kreeyath and his army decimating the local forces. The group fought bravely in what was considered their final hour, as they faced thousands of enemies along with small pockets of other Zarosians, until the early hours of the morning when all the members of Evgeni's team, except for 2 others lay dead in the dirt. Evgeni was able to make a distraction, which gave him and his remaining allies the chance to escape through some underground tunnels, where they then travelled to Sophanem to rebuild the Desert Wraiths.

Unfortunately, morale quickly dropped as news of Azzanadra's death spread, due to the fact that he was an icon to many of the loyal Zarosian mahjarrats, and was considered to be one of the most powerful of Zaros' followers. This lead to Evgeni's group splitting, because nobody wanted to fight anymore, as things were becoming hopeless. They agreed that one of them would go North to the Fremmenik lands, one to the south, and one to the West towards the Elven lands. Evgeni would be the one who would go west.

Tirannwn
The three comrades sailed to the south-west towards the Ape Atoll where they dropped off Aema, then changed their course north and sailed until they landed on the shores of what was to be Witchaven. Evgeni and the last man, Xenjikzi, said their goodbyes here, and they parted ways. Evgeni travelled west in the form of a wolf, until he reached Arandar where he buried his belongings and took the form of a young Elven child. He hiked his way through the mountains and forests of Tirannwn until he reached the crystal city of Priffdinas.

Upon arriving at the gates of Priffdinas, Evgeni met a young couple from the Ithell clan. Evgeni took his chances and allowed himself to be adopted into the clan, while passing himself off as an orphan.

While living amongst the Ithell, and the other elven clans, Evgeni was taught the ways of their kind. His violent nature calmed to a certain extent, and he learned that there were rewarding things in life other than killing and power. In the time he was taught various forms of crafting clothes and weaponry, cooking, crystal chanting, and in his spare time he also studied languages and history further, as well as medicine and things that his blood magic couldn't fix. Most importantly, however was that he was able to almost master nature manipulation and light magic in his time here, and even developed a few of his own techniques based on his learnings.

"I always thought the Elves were weak for being peaceful; but now that I've seen what the power of nature and light magic can do, I'm not sure I'll ever think that again. While I spend my time among these people, learning these devastating forms of magic will be my top priority."

- Mito Ithell

People never suspected him of being a Mahjarrat, or so he thought, as his acting was well planned and performed. He even went as far as aging his physical appearance on a monthly basis.

He lived a happy life, and was married for a short time but never had any children. But as his persona's life drew to a close around the age of 1000 years from an "uncureable disease", he disappeared. Evgeni had heard the news of the God Wars heading west towards Trollheim, he decided that it was time for his revenge against Zamorak for what happened thousands of years ago. On his way to the battlefield of the gods, he met Xenjikzi in the lands of the Fremmenik, who was posing as an old seer. Evgeni convinced him to watch over him while he hibernated for 1 year, so that he could use most of his power in the coming battle. After a year, Evgeni was awoken and he continued his journey towards Forinthry. He came to a stop, however, near Trollheim, where he discovered The God Wars Dungeon, with all of the armies frozen inside by Nex's ice spell. With the God Wars over, Evgeni was beginning to question what else the world had to offer; with the knowledge that he gained from the Elves fresh in his mind, he set off to explore the rest of Gielinor.

"What I have learned as an Ithell will never leave me. The knowledge they passed on to me is some of the greatest I've ever received, and the experiences were worth more than any treasure."

End of the Third Age
Evgeni attended a rejuvination ritual at the end of the God Wars. After this, he roamed the land for many years; he studied the Tzhaar people, learned to speak like a Gnome, and advanced his knowledge of shadow magick and illusions. He also watched over his former Elven family and friends in his spare time. His life, began to grow boring again, and soon, in the first 100 years of the fourth age, he went into a 300 year long hibernation.

The Fourth Age
Upon waking up from his hibernation, Evgeni stepped into a new, thriving world. He witnessed the rise of humans first hand, as he helped build Avarrocka himself and explored the new kingdoms of man. As impressed as he was, not getting to fight in the last battle of the God Wars was beginning to get to him. His old, violent nature started to come back and he set off to fight in the proxy wars that still raged across the lands of Gielenor.

The first war that he participated in were the Ogre-Goblin Wars. He took the form of a goblin, and earned the name "Blood Hand" after he impressed the goblins with his show of blood magic in battle. He carried his identity with him to the Drogokishuun tribe, where he settled for a time.

"Being forced to act like a child while I was with the Ithell was one thing; but being forced to act stupid as a grown-ass man among these green, inbred morons is just too much."

- Blood Hand

Eventually, duty called for the Drogokishuun tribe in the events leading up to The Battle of Mud Plain. Evgeni did fight along the goblins at the battle itself, and survived the many days for which it raged on. After the battle ended, and the politics were settled, Evgeni could no tolerate the goblin's moronic Bandosianism. He disappeared and went to Avarrocka, where he heard there trouble was brewing to the east in Morytania.

In Avarrocka, he joined the army and participated in the war with Morytania. Being loyal to Zaros, Evgeni fought in the war with great ferocity, taking the lives of hundreds of Zamorakians. His barbaric bloodthirstiness gained him a disturbing reputation among other soldiers, and many rumours were created around his actions. Some of them were true, some of them were not. But both alike, they were never recorded, and just remained as campfire stories.

"Despite our histories, I have formed a solid alliance with the most unlikely of people; a Saradominist Icyene, a Guthixian Werewolf, a Serenist Elf, and another Saradominist; a Centaur mage. Due to my new method of vaporous transportation, the guys have started calling me the Bloody Mist of Misthalin. I don't like it, but its sort of got a nice ring to it.  Ah well, it doesn't matter.  Tomorrow we're supposed to be making the first huge offensive in the war, I'm sure I'll have much more interesting things to write in the coming weeks; epic tales of our band of "brothers" exploits against the wicked Zamorakians, perhaps."

The Push into Silvarea
''The sun was barely out on the horizon in the early hours of the freezing winter morning. The clock struck 6am, and the thermometer read -10°c. The time and temperature didn't seem to hinder the activities of the bustling military encampment on the outskirts of Silvarea; the soldiers couldn't afford to let them do so.''

''It was already many months into the war with Morytania, maybe even a few years. In long stretches of combat, one seems to lose their sense of time; most often it passes faster that way, at least it seems like it does, when you aren't thinking about how many days it is until the winter holidays or when you'll see your loved ones again. For the men and women that enjoyed fighting, the ones who had no family nor celebrated holidays, war was like heaven. However, when there was a reason for war, an incentive to fight, war become something more than that. For the men and women serving in the Royal Misthalin 2nd Army Vanguard (R.M.A.V.) detactchment, this was the case. The fear of the Edicts of Guthix being broken was their reason to fight, and they had nothing to lose.''

''In the Vanguards, race, religion, and history didn't matter. If one was willing to put their life on the line while taking on unspeakable odds, Misthalin would let you fight. Zarosians, Saradominists, Guthixians, Serenists; they all fought against eachother to the death during the God Wars. Yet, here they all stood together, huddled around a fire in the middle of winter, eating a meal before they were all thrown into the Hell that is war. Every single one of them shared common goals; to become more powerful, and feed their lust for bloodshed in the process of saving the world from annihilation. However, the only way to achieve these goals, was to stay alive. Often, staying alive in war is difficult, but it becomes easier when one is working as a part of a team. Watching the back of a fellow soldiers meant they would do the same in return, meaning that one would probably stay alive longer, in order to achieve their goals. This was why Evgeni, a Mahjarrat; Bolormaa, a Centaur; Praskoviya, a werewolf; and Solheil, an Icyene, all fought side by side without prejudice towards one another.''

''The bugle called out throughout the camp and everyone quickly finished their food and grabbed their gear; it was time for the final briefing before the assault on Silvarea began. Evgeni, and the rest of R.M.A.V. 11th Squad pushed their way through the justle of quickly moving bodies to get to the R.M.A.V. briefing area. They were only one of twenty independantly operating R.M.A.V. squads participating in the assault that day, but their briefing was all done together. The four squadmates of 11th squad finally arrived at the briefing area for R.M.A.V. The eighty men and women that made up the twenty squads gathered in a massive semi-circle around a central podium where Commander Kirk Marban of R.M.A.V. stood; he was a tall, grizzled man of about fourty years of age, his grey hair, battle scars, and eyepatch made him look a lot older and far mor intimidating. He spoke with a gruff Misthilan countryside accent, that immideatly silenced everyone in the vicinity''.

"Alright you bastards, quiet the hell down!  We want to have this war won before the goddamn snow piles up and makes it impossible to bloody fight!"

''"Damn straight! We're freezing our asses off out here!" called a witty but enthusiastic sounding voice from the crowd.''

"Aye, so am I.  Calm your tits, son.  If we get this done today, we'll all be going home soon.  With that said, I'd like to get started.  Squad leaders!  Pull out your maps and grab a pen!"

''Evgeni, as squad leader, reached into his satchel and pulled out a map of Eastern Misthalin and North-West Morytania; the other squad leaders did the same. Bolormaa, Praskoviya, and Solheil gathered closer around him.''

"Right!  Here's how this is going down!  The Royal Misthalin 1st Army is going to be marching straight up their vampyre pussies, and as usual, R.M.A.V. has been assigned the pleasure of fucking 'em in the ass!"

''The commander's vulgarity always got a kick out of the tired soldiers, especially the more simple minded bandosians. A giant somewhere behind Evgeni chuckled a deep, obnoxious laugh.''

''"We're going to be hitting those Zamorakian necrophiliacs with amphibious assaults all along the Salve River!  We're hoping that this will draw some of their forces away from the 1st Army, so that they can get a foothold on Silvarea.  Intelligence also suggests that some high ranking vampyre officers are stationed along the river; ones that will possibly be carrying valuable information regarding their battle plan!  So, the objective of this mission is two-fold: overrun and secure your designated position along the Salve River, gathering any intel you come across in the process, and then defend your position from enemy reinforcements!  I'll now go over who is being deployed where, according to how close it is to the main battle!  First off, 11th Squad will be assigned to Landing Zone Cammora; as a note, the closer you are to the main battle, the harder your position will be to defend! Anyway, moving on to 17th Squad! You will be taking up the second position along the river, Landing Zone Robert! 4th Squad; you'll be heading to the third position, Landing Zone Arrav!"''

Commander Marban continued on, listing all the squads and what position they would be securing along the Salve River.

"And finally we come to the last position, which 2nd Squad will be taking, Landing Zone Saradomin's Ass!"

''A grin crept its way on to Evgeni's and Praskoviya's faces as they looked at the two Saradominsts in the group, Bolormaa and Solheil. They both frowned and shrugged at the name of the last landing zone.''

"Alright!  Any questions?  No?  Good!  Grab your gear and get ready to haul ass in five!  And hey, whose gonna fuck 'em up?!"

''The crowd screamed out in unison "We're gonna fuck 'em up, sir!  Haaraah!" Evgeni smiled as he was reminded of the days he spent making similar speechs while leading the Desert Wraith. He stood up from his crouched position and began walking off towards the cart that would transport him and 11th Squad to their launching point''.

End of the Fourth Age
After the end of the 100 year long conflict, Evgeni went to hibernate in the depths of what is now known as Eagles' Peak.

Due to Eagles' Peak being out of the way, Evgeni wasn't woken until approximately 1900, Fourth Age. He was discovered by traders who were exploring the cave while en route to the recently rediscovered Gnomish lands. Since he was so close to Tiranwnn, he decided that he wished to see how his Elven family was doing. Upon arriving outside Prifddinas, Evgeni discovered that the Iorwerth clan had taken over the city, and were ruthlessly reigning over it with an iron fist. He went to Kandarin and waited until news of possible action surfaced. Evgeni joined Baxtorian's forces in the 5 year campaign to retake Prifddinas. He was saddened by the losses sustained during the campaign, including many members of the Ithell clan, which had taken his Elven form to live amongst them during the God Wars. After seeing the horrors of people that he cared about being cut down, Evgeni got his first taste of the feeling of loss; the war in Prifddinas changed Evgeni permanently. Near the end of this age, Evgeni also took part in another Rejuvination Ritual.

The Fifth Age
In the first years of the Fifth Age, Evgeni moved to the quiet, peaceful town of Lumbridge and took on the form of a human that looked a little like his current form. While living here, he became an instructor of magic at a local school, and wrote a few informational books on the topics of the God Wars, magic, Elven crafting, and a few cook books. All of the books were published under the name Evgeni Avencianci; a simplified version of his Freneskae name.

While living in Lumbridge, he fell in love with a local woman, Lidia, and the two of them got married. Lidia was aware of what Evgeni was, and what it meant for their child; although, she wasn't concerned because their love for eachother was something genuine. Within a few months, Lidia gave birth to the couple's daughter, Miranda, and life picked up a little more. Evgeni learned things about family that living with the Elves could never teach him, such as parenting, and the loving bond that forms between parent and offspring; another reference to what Kazglu told him about experience many years ago. Evgeni continued teaching, but the couple raised Miranda in private, her only friends were her cousins, Rochal and Tsagan, who were both Ulaghai's children. Evgeni gave Miranda private schooling in the evenings, including lessons in magic.

One day, when Evgeni arrived home early from teaching, he walked in to find Lidia and Miranda dead and three men dressed in black and red robes trying to escape from his house. For the first time since the 4th Age, Evgeni used his natural form because of the blood rage disease taking over his mind. It worked out well, because the three murderers happened to be Mahjarrat as well. Ferociously, Evgeni dispatched the first mahjarrat by ramming his fist through his abdomen, and ripping his spine out through his stomach. The woman who stabbed Miranda and Lidia, then lashed out at Evgeni with his blade. In response Evgeni grabbed the her arm, digging his fingers through the flesh and muscle; he lifted her up, slammed his head through the roof and proceeded to rip the mahjarrat's arm off with his bare hands. He then pried the dagger from the severed arm, and stabbed the wounded assailant through the heart, before he ripped her lower jaw from the rest of his skull. The final Zamorakian was the stronger of the three, as he was rejuvinated. Driven by rage, Evgeni still won the fight easily when he burned the Mahjarrat's eyes out with Light Magic, teleported behind him, knocked him down by blasting his spine full of ice chunks, and used his fists to punch his head into bony pulp. By this time, people were gathered outside the house after hearing the many pained screams coming from the house. Evgeni started the house on fire, and fled the scene with the bodies of his loved ones. A few eyewitnesses reported seeing a large creature with glowing red eyes fleeing the scene with two dead bodies.

"I tore their bodies limb from limb, and I fucking liked it. It felt good."

Evgeni was depressed and unsatisfied with his power; seeing as he failed to prevent the deaths of his wife and daughter. Being given enough reason to hate violence, the God Wars and himself more than anyone else alive, Evgeni wished to never again be concious in the realm of Geilenor. He travelled to the far north of Gielinor, and entered hibernation in the north pole.

Baas
Evgeni thought his father, Baas, was dead ever since the end of the God Wars. He just assumed that Baas perished with the rest of Zaros' followers. Little did Evgeni know, that his father had actually sworn alliegance to Zamorak long before and had been plotting against Zaros for many years.

On the night of Zaros' betrayal, Baas was part of the group in charge of making sure that no backup from Zaros' followers were able to get inside the palace once the attack had begun. This is the reason why Evgeni didn't see Baas during the attack (as Evgeni was inside).

After the God Wars had broken out, Baas was tasked with searching all of Gielenor for any Zarosians that may have escaped. Baas made it his top priority to make sure that Evgeni, who was the bearer of his personal spellbook and dark family secrets, was found and killed. Of course, this never became the case, and when he was called to the edge of Forinthry to make the final push for the Zamorakian Army, he was frozen by Nex, along with everyone else.

In 169 when the God Wars Dungeon was awoken once more, Baas escaped to see what had become of his son. He followed a long and very faint trail of clues that eventually led him to Al Kharid. Baas purposely unmasked his aura so that Evgeni would be drawn to him, and it worked. On a cold summer night, Evgeni was drawn out into the desert to see if his father was actually there. Sure enough, Baas was waiting there for him. The battle went something like this:

''  Evgeni's breath stood out in the pale blue night sky and silky smooth sand like a diamond reflecting off of the sun. His whole body trembles as he approaches the massive stranger, silhouetted against the night sky. As he comes within a few meters of him, the stranger lifts his hooded head, revealing two piercing orange eyes and a skeletal sneer that's enough to scare one to death. A lump rises in Evgeni's throat as his eyes lock with the stranger, with who he is now sure about the identity of; Baas. Evgeni finds the courage to speak, but is cut short by his father.''

"Ahvgaeni... I see you've taken on a pathetic human form to mask your identity."

"After all this time, Baas, this how you greet me, eh?  No demands, no punishments, no training to do?"

"Aww, you're just as unwelcoming, Ahvaegni.  You don't even have the decency to call me lord, master, or at least father.  Even after all I've done for you?"

"You're a traitor to Zaros.  You don't deserve those titles; and I've been better off without you, anyway."

"So I see.  You've hidden yourself well.  It took me a good half a year to find you.  It would've taken longer too, if it wasn't for the massive lead that I got from your false relatives in the Ithell clan."

''  Evgeni's voice reflects his anger as he speaks. "What did you do to them?" With a sinister chuckle, Baas responds, "I made them a little more... open minded.  It turns out a few of them knew who you really were."''

"I'll fucking kill you."

"Defiant as always, just like that whore, Masozi.  You know, you really took after her."

"If you so much as laid a finger on her, I'll-"

"I wasn't able to find her.  In fact, you're the first one I've met.  It's such a shame that you're the first one to go.  You had so much potential."

"I'm not going to let you hurt any of our family."

''  Behind Evgeni, the sand begins to silently stir, as the real Baas rises from the ground, charging a ball of energy in his hand. He places his other arm around Evgeni's neck and presses his face right against his ear. ''

''"You had so much to learn." Baas throws his hand forward, using the energy to effortlessly push his hand through Evgeni's body like a hot knife cutting butter. As he lets go, Evgeni's limp body begins to fall to the ground, but disappears before it hits. The real Evgeni comes out of invisibility behind Baas, and begins manipulating the sand into orbit around him. Baas turns around; chuckling to himself he says, "Just as I expected from my prodigy." He releases the ball of energy in his hand at Evgeni, in the form of a beam. Evgeni quickly uses the sand around him to form a massive, sandstone shield, that barely stops the energy beam from hitting him. Using his few free seconds, Evgeni begins charging a massive ball of fire, using both his hands. Baas laughs maniaclly as he charges more energy into both of his hands. ''

"I'm still going to kill you, Ahvaegni!"

''  Just as he releases two more energy beams at his shield, Evgeni rolls out from behind it and releases a massive jet of white and blue fire at Baas. He throws himself out of the way just in time, but the flames still ignite his cloak. Evgeni begins charging four balls of energy in front of him, which bubble and glow a bright shade of blue against the darkness. Baas removes his flaming cloak, and throws it forward at Evgeni, with a bit of extra help from a wind spell, and he begins to charge at him, pulling his battleaxe out of the sheath on his back. Evgeni wastes no time in firing the first ball of energy off, in the form of a beam that annhialates the cloak, and continues on. Baas jumps out of the way of the first beam, and keeps on coming. Evgeni releases two more of the energy balls in the same fashion, causing Baas to dodge them as well, jumping and ducking into the air so that one passes over his head, and the other under his feet. Evgeni releases the final ball of energy at Baas, and hits him right in the center of the chest, since he was in the air and unable to dodge. It creates a large hole in his armour, but is stopped by his magically reinforced weave that lies beneath. Evgeni removes his sword from his back and charges forward, sending an overhead swing down, horizontally at the recovering Baas. He swings his battleaxe upwards to counter the blow, and he quickly hops up, and sends a powerful kick to Evgeni's right side, cracking his ribs and sending him flying closer to the edge of the waterfall. Evgeni rises to his feet, wincing in pain, and gets ready for Baas to continue his deadly assault. Baas runs forward and swings his axe down at Evgeni's left side. Evgeni is able to parry the blow with his sword but he is knocked off balance because of the Mahjarrat's strength. Baas brings his axe back the other way and strikes Evgeni on the side of his head with the axe's handle, sending a rush of pain through Evgeni with a sickening crack from his skull fracturing. Evgeni, now on his knees, sends a blind swing towards Baas' legs, which he easily jumps over; Baas then kicks Evgeni in the gut with a powerful blow that sends him towards the very edge of the waterfall, and throws Evgeni's sword over the edge. Baas looms over him, menacingly.''

"See, boy, you can't defeat me.  I'm the one that fucking made you what you are.  I am the master!"

''  Evgeni painfully raises his head to look Baas right in his orange, glowing eyes. "Fuck you." Now angered, Baas sweeps his axe upwards towards Evgeni's chest, and strikes him head on, his underlying chainmail blocks a bit of the cutting, but the blunt force from the Mahjarrat's blow sends him flying over the edge of the waterfall. As Evgeni falls, time seems to pass in slow motion. Every little memory that Evgeni had in his mind seemed to come back to him in full clarity, and arouse his emotions. A tear comes to his eye as the faces of his daughter, Miranda, Eshebi, Katrina, and Holden fly though his mind. He remembers the many great moments that he had shared with all of them. Finally, as he reaches the surface of the water, he lets out a scream of desperation, fear, anger, and suffering before he is silenced by the loud crashing of his body hitting the water. As he sinks deep into the lake below, Evgeni is kept alive by sheer will alone, and he conjures up the strength to turn the battle back in his favour. His body begins to glow red, signifying his shapeshifting transformation back into his natural form. Baas begins to hop down to the bottom of the waterfall, by this time, Evgeni has completed his transformation and finds himself sitting at the bottom of the lake. The moon silhouettes Baas against the night sky, allowing Evgeni to easily see him from the bottom of the lake. He simutaneously begins to charge a water spell beneath him, while he grabs his sword which had also sunk, and charges an armour curse in his other hand. After a few moments, Evgeni releases the water spell, causing him to be thrown violently upwards. As he exits the lake, he sends and upwards stab towards the bottom of Baas' jaw. He is able to barely dodge it by leaning back on his heels, but the blade still carves a line down the center of his chin. While still in the air, being kept up by a jet of water, Evgeni releases the armour curse and hits the off balance Baas head on. The armour begins to crack in places, and the underlying weave loses its glow. Baas sneers. ''

"I suspected that you wouldn't give up so easily."

''  Now filled with even more rage and hatred than before, Evgeni screams into the night, "BAAAAAASSS, I FUCKING TOLD YOU!  YOU... WILL... DIE!" He sinks into the jet of water, and it takes on the form of a dragon, which doesn't waste time in lunging towards Baas. The size of it makes it impossible to dodge and Baas gets hit by it, like being thrown into a concrete wall. The dragon continues to splash against him, until Evgeni is launched out of it and comes down from the sky with an aerial attack from his sword. Evgeni lands on both of Baas' legs, crushing the armor beneath the weight of his heels; he then sends his sword down at Baas' head to cleave it in two. Baas blocks the cut with his axe, and uses it to throw Evgeni off of his legs; he stands up to face him.''

''"Nice move." ''

''  Evgeni comes charging in, wasting no time, and throws a horizontal cut at Baas' eye with incredible speed. Baas hops backwards but is unable to dodge it completely, and Evgeni's sword carves a clean cut from his forehead, through his left eye, slicing it in half, and down on to his chin. Baas shuts his eye, as blood pours profusely from between the eyelid. With a startling scream, Baas grips his battleaxe with both hands and charges at Evgeni, swinging cuts left and right at high speeds. Evgeni walks backwards while dodging or blocking each blow, and at every chance he gets, attempts to get his own stab or slash in, but to no avail. Baas' and Evgeni's skills are evenly matched, and a constant game of blocking ensues between the two. Becoming frustrated, Baas jumps backwards, as does Evgeni.''

"Ahvgaeni, you truly are the perfect replication of me.  I hope you understand that it will be a great honour for me to kill you.  After all, you're the carrier of most of my knowledge, which can't be left to fall into my enemy's hands."

"It already has.  In fact, I teach it.  I teach it to HUMANS, ever single day."

''  Baas' mouth twists from a cocky smile into a raging frown. He screams, "You dare pass off Mahjarrat knowledge to beings unworthy of even being in our presence?!  You truly are lost, Ahvgaeni!"''

"You're the one that's lost!"

''  The two charge it each other. Baas swings his axe in an upwards arc from below, and Evgeni swings his sword with one hand in a downward arc from above at exactly the same time. Baas, however, is moving faster, and the only thing that hits him is Evgeni's forearm, which his axe is still heading for. With a sickening, wet crunch, the axe passes through Evgeni's right arm, severing it completely and launching it, along with his sword, off to the side. Evgeni hits the ground hard, splattering blood from his arm stump across the hard packed sand. He lets out a short but loud yell of pain and he grips the stump. Baas kicks Evgeni in the face, sending his head crashing into the ground; his foot then lowers on to his throat. He speaks in a low, particularly snarly voice. "I thought you were something special. But you're just a useless tool, not worthy of being a Mahjarrat." Baas spits in his face, and swings his axe down towards Evgeni's head to deliver the final blow. At the last second, Evgeni's body disappears and Baas' axe is sent right into his own foot, slicing it in half, also pinning him to the ground. Behind Baas, Evgeni comes out of invisibility blood dripping from his severed arm, and a glowing ball of magical energy in his hand. Without hessitation, Evgeni punches through Baas' chest, grabbing his heart as his hand passes out the other side of his chest. The heart remains connected to his body and still beats; Baas coughs up a large amount of blood, that runs down his face when he speaks. "Ahv-Ahvgaeni... y-you..."''

"Yeah, you were so blinded by rage that you didn't even notice me set an illusion and invisibility combo.  It's the basics, and it looks like I've surpassed you."

"Y-you... son of a bitch... I-I'll kill you."

''  Evgeni frowns, and puts his face right against his ear, much like Bass had done to him before. "This is for Zaros, you traitor." With that, Evgeni crushes Baas' heart in his hand, sending blood and matter splattering all over the ground and on to Baas' armor. Baas' eye widens for a moment, and he coughs up blood, before it starts to darken and his body becomes limp. Evgeni rips his hand out of the hole in his chest, and kicks the body over. Evgeni pulls Baas' staff off of his back and throws it aside, before he charges a new ball of energy to a point where he can no longer contain it due to fatigue, and releases it at Baas' body, incinerating it, along with the rest of the ground around it. All that remained was a charred crater. Evgeni grabs the staff, his sword, and severed arm; he walks into the pit and lies down in it. He presses his severed arm against the stump, and places his good hand over the gem in his sternum. His hand begins to glow an icy blue, which causes the gem to do so as well. He removes his hand, and his body begins to freeze over from the toe up. Before he's frozen completely, Evgeni uses the last of his strength to push all the displaced sand back overtop of himself, using magic. Then, everything went dark. He was now in hibernation.''

Academy Part II
Upon awakening from his 3 month hibernation, Evgeni returned to the Academy of Heroes and became an even more active member of their family. He increased his classes that he did with Holden, Katrina, and Ichigo. As time stretched onward, people came and went, but Evgeni stayed. He participated in many hostage rescue missions involving members of the Academy, and helped maintain order within the Academy. His hard work and loyalty to his friends landed him a spot as an Academy Grandmaster when Aryl retired.

One day when Dante was threatening members of the academy with his cannon, Evgeni intervened and went into his natural form to disable the cannon and pull Dante from it. He succeeded in removing the cannon's hatch and placing a curse on Dante to prevent him from moving and blowing everyone up with his explosive detenator. While Dante was being chewed out by Elrond and Evgeni afterwards,  Vigil snapped and stabbed Dante in the leg, which caused Evgeni to lose control and hit Vigil with an extremely powerful wind surge that tore skin from his bones and threw him through the fountain and half way across the academy, almost killing him for a second time. After seeing Vigil torn up as a result of his anger, Evgeni became upset and decided that he'd advance his knowledge of necromancy from a contact in the Moon Clan that chose to delve into a darker line of magic. His goal was to replace Aryl, who recently left, as the Academy healer.

Captured!
''  The blood of the Zamorakians, that had held Evgeni captive for so long, covers the icy walls of the cavern. Their bodies, or parts of them, lie motionless in the thin layer of snow that blankets the rocky floor of the cave. Only one remains alive, barely. His thick Mahjarrat flesh is charred to the bone, and he slumps against a wall, clinging to life. The eerie silence and almost total darkness of the cave only enhances the disturbing aftermath of the battle that had just taken place. A blue light erupts from the darkness and crackles with an electricity that lets off an ear piercing screech. It begins to move towards the wounded Mahjarrat, who knows his fate all too well. The blue light illuminates the empty eye sockets of Evgeni's face as he inches closer to his enemy. With a tired voice, he speaks.''

"You thought removing my eyes would prevent me from escaping, didn't you?"

''  The Mahjarrat coughs up blood on to the floor as he tries to reply, but looking through the hole in his chest, he finds his vocal folds to be heavily damaged. Evgeni is now looming over him, and he crouches down to match his height. He speaks in a low whisper.''

''“Remember how you told me, that the God Wars never ended, and that I couldn’t escape fate? Well, you really changed me with that speech. You made me realize what a fool I’ve been for these past millennia. When you had me chained to that rock, all I could do was think. I thought on what you told me, and I realized that my current values fit together with my past like a puzzle. I now realize that the only way to attain true peace in this cursed world is by following in Zaros’ footsteps. Really! Just think about it! TOTAL unification under one empire! There would be no more war; everyone would be happy.”''

Evgeni’s mouth twists from a sneer, into a frown.

''“Unfortunately, in order for this to work, sacrifices must be made. After all, The Empty Lord tried to achieve his goal on a foundation of lies, manipulation, and bloodshed. But I suppose that’s what it’ll take for his ambition to be achieved, and I’ll be the one to make it happen. Thanks for your eyes, by the way.”''

''  Evgeni raises his hand to the wounded Mahjarrat’s right eye, and grabs his eyelids, stretching them open. He forces his hand forward, putting is fingers around the eye, and pulls outwards, tearing it from his skull. The Mahjarrat begins flailing around, attempting to scream. Evgeni head-butts him so hard that blood runs from his forehead. He then tears out the other eye in the same fashion as before, and places both of them into a pouch 'around his belt.

''“Your death marks the first step on my path to world peace. Thanks for enlightening me.”''

''  The hand that Evgeni had charged with electricity darts towards the Mahjarrat’s face and hits it with a sickening crack as his head is pushed into the wall. The electricity travels to the brain instantly, killing him. The electricity fades, and Evgeni grabs the two eyes from his pouch and sticks each one into one of his empty eye sockets. His hands begin glowing green, and he raises them over his eyes to begin the healing process.''

"All I can do now is wait."

The Azulra Altercation
After coming back from his imprisonment, Evgeni began reaching out to his fellow Mahjarrat, in an attempt to get accustom to his previous way of life in Freneskae; all in order to help him build his organization called "The Foundation".

Coincidentally, Evgeni met the Mahjarrat named Azulra on a seaside rock on the coast of Morytania while he was on an evening walk. If he had known what kind of situation she was going to place him in, he would've walked away from her in a heartbeat. However, this was not the case. The two became allies, sort of; the kind of allies that simply team up to kill the bad guy and then start talking trash to eachother after and bitch about who was stronger. Azulra subtly taunted Evgeni and he convinced her to go to a remote location so that they could spar with eachother. They teleported to a snow covered field in Relleka, and began their fight. The fight was long and gruelling; the victor was ultimately Evgeni, as he was able to impale Azulra's legs with ice javelins after she came out of her smoke form. She teleported immediatly after taking the hit, possibly because she believed Evgeni would take the opportunity to slay her.

Evgeni's second meeting with Azulra was tainted by the stigma created by the result of their sparring session. Azulra came to Evgeni demanding that he give her his blood to tune bane ore, so that she could use it to kill Ptolemos. Evgeni disapproved of the idea, and argued that just having him fight alongside her would prove more benificial. Azulra then threatened to kill Evgeni's cat, Mjinga, and set her Hellhounds upon him after Evgeni refused to hand over his blood. Evgeni acted quickly by turning into his blood form; he killed the hounds in quick succession, but soon found himself in a battle with Azulra; this time, it was to the death. Evgeni hopped around the battlefield, dodging the many spells that Azulra sent at him. In the carnage, Mjinga was hit by a fire surge and incinerated. Evgeni landed the first blow by stabbing Azulra between her heart and left shoulder, which caused her to turn into her fire form. The fight raged on for a few more minutes, until Evgeni reasoned with Azulra to stop her madness. She teleported away in a fit, leaving imps behind to deal with Evgeni while he was weak from maintaining his blood form for so long. He dodged them and was able to teleport to safety.

The couple's third encounter was strangely calm, considering what had happened last time; at least it was for a while. Azulra contacted Evgeni, to ask him if he was willing to help steal Ptolemos' mahjarratbane dagger, along with Thane. Evgeni agreed, and the trio went to an abandoned Citadel so that they could spring their trap on Ptolemos without any interruptions. Inside the citadel's keep, Evgeni created an illusion of himself, sitting down in the meeting hall, and hid up on the balcony overlooking it in an invisible state. When Ptolemos arrived, Evgeni shot a beam of energy at Ptolemos while he was talking to Azulra. The beam burned a hole right through him, and Thane put a paralysis spell over him. Evgeni jumped down to make the killing blow on Ptolemos. He swung his sword at Ptolemos' neck just as Azulra told him not to kill him. He stopped his blade an inch away from his neck, but Azulra had launched a fire spell at him. Evgeni inadvertantly used Ptolemos as a meat shield, which protected him from the spell, and badly scalded Ptolemos. Azulra commanded Evgeni to hand the mahjarratbane dagger over to her, but him and Thane disagreed. They believed that the dagger should be destroyed. Evgeni started pouring his aura into the blade as it began to glow white hot in his hand. Enraged, Azulra sent her demons on to Thane and Evgeni. Evgeni slashed a few of them away with his sword in his right hand, and Thane finished off the rest. Evgeni expanded the aura in the dagger, causing it to break into thousands of pieces. Ptolemos' messed up corpse began to squirm around on the floor and it bursted into ants. The voice of Ptolemos filled their heads. He told them that the dagger was a fake, and that he'd use the real one to kill Zamorak after he went back in time using Dragonkin ruins. Evgeni, Thane, and Azulra said he was full of nonsense, and he retreated into the void.

What came next took Evgeni by surprise. Azulra exclaimed that it was time for him and Thane to die. She teleported away, as did Thane, leaving Evgeni by himself. Upon attempting to teleport, he found that the teleblock had been put back up. He felt the magical field around the citadel diminishing, and he frantically thought of a way to escape. He began turning into his blood form as the citadel began to fall. He was able to launch himself through the cieling of the first floor, but became stuck on the second. With milliseconds left to act, he burst himself into his blood mist form, dispersing his body mass. The citadel crashed into the Northern Ocean, leaving Evgeni's aura and particles floating beneath the ocean.

Recovery
Over the span of 20 hours, Evgeni was able to rematerialize himself on the wreckage of the citadel, but he lost some of his aura and particles in the ocean, leaving his right arm and left leg in a poor state. Eventually he gained enough strength to teleport to the outskirts of the Academy of Heroes. By this time, 24 hours had past and he could feel his Blood Rage taking effect. Wounded, Naked, and Humiliated, Evgeni stumbled towards the Academy, yelling and thrashing about the whole way there. When he arrived at the gates to the Academy, Elrond tried to calm him down, but Evgeni threw him aside. Elrond punched Evgeni in the face; which he welcomed this with great pleasure, and urged him to hurt him more. Katrina stepped in, and shot an ice spike through Evgeni's right arm, severing it. It ended his Blood Rage, and he fell to the ground, his left leg snapping off completely from his weight. Elrond and Baldor carried Evgeni into the medical room, where he began healing himself.

Weeks passed, and Evgeni finally recovered the strength he needed to engage his foe, Azulra. Coincidentally, Arachnea and Xolotl had brought Azulra within a few miles of the Academy, and were engaged in mortal combat with eachother. Evgeni sensed the presences of the three, and he rushed over to their location, hoping to deliver the final blow to Azulra. When he arrived, the battle was just about finished, and Azulra was being carried off by one of her Gargoyles. Without asking questions, Evgeni released his blade's second form, and launched himself high into the air with his aura. He cleaved the Gargoyle in half, and Azulra dropped to the ground. Evgeni then proceeded to slice her head in half, right down the center, killing her instantly.

A Rising Hope, and a New Age (Evgeni and Arachnea)
Before Evgeni had fought Azulra for the last time, his life began to take a inconceivable turn off the beaten path when he confronted the (then) mysterious Arachnea, in hopes of finding answers about Azulra. Despite displaying distrust when originally confronting Arachnea, Evgeni had already started to develop strong feelings towards her; ones of intimacy, which deterred most of his negative thoughts about her. While he still didn't trust her fully, he certainly took a liking to her.

Evgeni crossed paths with Arachnea once more during their battle with Azulra; although this meeting had little meaning. After Evgeni had killed Azulra, the two exchanged small talk and went their separate ways. It was a few days later, however, that things really began to pick up in their personal relationship. Evgeni was reading out in the courtyard of The Academy of Heroes, when Arachnea showed up at the front door. She wanted to make sure that Evgeni had made everyone who witnessed their fight with Azulra swear to keep quiet about it. Evgeni said that everything was all good, and he asked her if she wanted to attend a beach party with him; one that he was already planning on going to, making it a perfect disguise for a date. She agreed and they both teleported off to Mudskipper Point. Their afternoon at the party was one filled with much comedic value. Evgeni beat a shark to death with his fists, he made a crystal dildo while he was drunk, and he even showed off magic skills while acting like a dork. Through this, Evgeni was able to determine what kind of sense of humor Arachnea had, and if he had a chance at being with her. His obnoxiousness didn't seem to bother her too much, so he took it as a good sign.

A week or so later, Evgeni spied on Arachnea all day, and followed her deep into the Grotworm Caves outside of Rimmington. He took this opportunity to approach her while she was alone, and seduce her with his suaveness. Apparently, Evgeni's smooth talking worked, as he was able to set up a beach date, which they went on later in the day after analyzing glyphs on the walls of the cavern.

At the beach, Evgeni brought a bottle of his Fourth Age wine from Silvarea for the two of them to share. They sat on the beach, sitting close to each other, and sipped wine while watching the sunset. The mood was most romantic, and Arachnea didn't seem to be repulsed by him, so he took the opportunity to admit his true feelings to her. She responded by kissing him on the cheek and telling him that the relationship had the potential to go far. Evgeni then dropped the L word, and Arachnea grabbed his face and kissed him on the lips for the longest time. Things escalated quickly into multiple, long sessions of copulation. In the morning, the option of them being mates was an obvious choice. They went their separate ways and planned to meet again very soon.

A day or two later, Kisbeth showed up at the Academy at night to speak with Evgeni about being in a fixed relationship with another Mahjarrat on Gielinor. They discussed safety for both of them, pregnancy (mostly), and The Good Ol' Days over many cigarettes (which Evgeni had taken up smoking in his nervousness) and cups of tea early into the morning, with only a minor interruption from 2 Mahjarrat, a Zamorakian, a band of Saradominist Crusaders, and an Icyene fighting in the Academy's courtyard.  Later, Evgeni found out from Kisbeth that she had already spoken with Arachnea, and told him that she said she was considering having children with him. Evgeni expressed fierce loyalty towards Arachnea, swearing to protect her and a child if things worked out that way, with every bit of power that he had within himself, and then some.

The next day, around mid-day, Evgeni got Arachnea to come over for an Wushanko Isles themed lunch. The two of them discussed minor things, but eventually reached the topic of their future together. Arachnea gave subtle hints throughout the meal that she wished to "finalize" their status as mates that evening. When they were finished, Evgeni swept Arachnea off her feet, literally, and carried her out into the desert to "finalize" their future together, while in their natural forms. The two of them returned hours later and started making out in the kitchen, when Kisbeth popped in to say hello. The two love birds and Kisbeth talked about serious subject matter for a long time again, and eventually reached the conclusion that Arachnea was most likely pregnant with a rare full blood Mahjarrat child.

Things are now really beginning to unfold for Arachnea and Evgeni; with possible danger and many touching, family moments to come in the near future.
