Oscurit

Bald, smart, a voice surrounded by a deep arcane echo and a quite muscular corpse for an undead mage, this undead is has an aura of mistery all around him. Forsaken refers to him as a powerful noble, leading the house of the Faramos, famous in the human kingdom of lordaeron for having loads of hired thugs. In truth the Faramos died with his father. He's now something new: a loyal servant of the Blue Dragonflight.

Before World of Warcraft
Oscurit,once,was known as Rayan Marcus Faramos,a very important noble and an old arcanister of the Kirin Tor. He was married with an elf, named Shyna. Skilled and intelligent, was always ready to help. An example is the friendship he made with the captain Icor Sunwhisper during the second war. At Dalaran invasion he fought with all his powers...but he died by the hand of some nasty ghouls. Anyway, even the death didn't save the poor mage and he has been turned into a ferocious undead from the hand of a dreadlord, without mercy for anyone. Starting to go into a incredible madness...

Renamed himself Oscurit((from latin: osbscurus=darkness)) he start to fight against every opposer of the Burning Legion(he never served the Lich King,because was turned by a couple of Dreadlords).When,at the Battle of Mount Hyjal,the Legion lose the war,Oscurit became free and ran away,scared of both factions. He ran in the only place he may find secure:the frozen wastes of Northrend.

The cursed undead, at the dragonblight found a young blue drake fighting against a Frost Wyrm. He aided the blue one as he could, and, at the end, the duo won. The drake was injured and not able to fight, so Oscurit aided him as he was able to. The blue dragon found in Oscurit an helper and, after the mage told the drake his story and showing his powers, the last one agreed in help the mage. Once the drake was able to fly again,he flew away for a week, when he came back, he was in meaning to aid Oscurit joining the Blue Dragonflight. After only some months of service with the dragonspawns, Oscurit became istantly a well known member of the flight and his skills reached even the Blue Dragon Aspect's ears that agreed not to slaughter him and keep him as a new dragonsworn. Because of his skills, he has also been introduced in the ways of conjuring, where he proven to be a very skilled mage.

Classic WoW
Lord Faramos, after some time, has been sent to look over the Plaguelands and, before, even in the Battle for Ahn'quiraj ((i was starting to play before AQ opening, but i wasn't high geared enough to get there)). He, in the disguise of a Forsaken, aided in the fight against the Scourge in the war known as "Shadow of the Necropolis", also rebuilding his noble house, the Faramos. He lefted from the Undercity and returned to Malygos with the information gained about and Ahn'Quiraj defeat and Kel'thuzad. After this, he obtained the Azure whelp Arygos, a young dragon son of an ancient wyrm, named Ralgos.

Burning Crusade
In the burning crusade, Oscurit never took any real actions into Outland but a few assaults over the Netherstorm and Shadowmoon Valley. He insteadl focused in a frequent political hostility against Silvermoon and the Magisterial Guard without success, even when he hired two assassins.

Later Oscurit has been sent into the Isle of Quel'danas under the will of the Blue Dragonflight. There he fed his hatred against the demons until Madrigosa, the blue dragon that was sent with Faramos, got killed by an aged pit lord in the middle of the assault over the Sunwell. He then fled back and, claiming to be a member of the Horde, went to Silvermoon where, looking at the terrible fel corruption in the area, he had some contrasts with a warlock and his order with plans that were against the dragonsworn's mind. Not much time after this series of events an orc came to Silvermoon. The orc wished to travel to Quel'danas and fight, so, Oscurit the dragonrider returned there, disguised as a servant of the Horde he fought in Quel'danas, never getting near the Sunwell with the fear of sharing the same fate of Madrigosa, that, renamed Felmyst, was the terror of the skies. At the end, Quel'danas was conquered and Oscurit returned to Ralgos, reporting what happened in the Sunwell.

The Wrath of the Lich King
In the Nexus War, Oscurit fought at the starting in Silvermoon (without any success), later he has been forced to return to Norhrend, for the critical situation there. He also fought in the Battle of the Undercity(still in the disguise as Sergeant Oscurit of the Horde), never loosing the chance to kill a Dreadlord. After the fall of Malygos, he ran away, hating everyone.But, first of all, he hates the Black Dragonflight, thinking that, if the Black Ones never betrayed the other flights, Malygos wasn't going to call the Nexus War and reach such demise. Oscurit is now travelling land to land,trying to keep the artifacts he can get. People start to see the mage venturing many times into the region named Azshara, it is still not known why, but rumors says that Oscurit is still a dragonsworn. To confirm this, Oscurit is now secretly serving Ralgos, an ancient blue wyrm. He also, following Ralgos instructions, created Vexagos, a drake who should serve Oscurit without question... Also, he's searching for more drakes to join his "rebellion".

The Shadows of Lordaeron
After long time, to increase his political influence, Oscurit has entered the guild known as Shadows of Lordaeron, under the command of Mailann Shadowwalker. Hoping to give useful information to the blue dragonflight, wich is now in peace with the other flights. The mage is now a perfect spy among the mortals's lines. Thanks to his skills, he has already become an officer of the Shadows. He has been working on an interesting project since Andorhal was taken by the Forsaken. What will the "Soul of the Frozen Death" bring is unknown, but he has required every deathcaster to channel his energies inside the Soul. After a few months later Mailann discovered Oscurit's betrayal... This revelation was followed by an ambush where he seriously damaged the other forsaken he died. Or atleast this is what everyone tought... He instead suceed in teleporting away. While trying to reacquire his previous glory amongst Forsaken (claiming to be under Meverel A'chard's possession, a warlock that has been killed by Oscurit as soon as he recovered) the mage redeemed himself to the eyes of the Shadows. While, for unknown reasons Faramos the dragonrider has hidden the Soul, he has claimed he will create a new weapon, a new glorious weapon that should replace, atleast in a lesser way, the Soul of the Frozen Death.

The War against the Ethereum
After the end of the Nexus War a few ethereums stole a powerful artifact from the Nexus, wich was said to be the incarnation of Arcane itself, "the Arcane Storm". It has later been empowered by the Ethereum but, when they hoped that the house of the Faramos was defetead due to an ambush, Oscurit asked the aid of the Shadows of Lordaeron, grabbing so the weapon. On the other hand, other pieces of the artifact are still somewhere in Outland, and the mage is tryng to search them disperately. On the other hand, Oscurit, in the last times had the idea to share his knowledge with the Horde sorcerors and aswell build a mage order that would have a great importance among the members of the Horde, sharing their knowledge, increasing their skills and having a great political influence. For this and other reason, he hopes to get The Magi Order to work soon. His efforts were vain and the sorcerors of the Horde, realized Oscurit, are just creating catastrophes. For this he wishes to stop them...

The Fall of the Faramos's Noblehouse
The mage has betrayed the Horde, building a Mana Bomb with the clear intent to destroy the Beastmaw Clan, the Suncrown Order and the Shadows of Lordaeron during a meeting at the center of Orgrimmar. The plan was stopped thanks to the intervent of Rin Kalmore that realized the betrayal of Oscurit. The mage, irritated, reached Ashenvale where the guild of Torakk was preparing to battle the night elves. Bringing his entire noblehouse there, he declared a cold war, often with ambushes, aginst the Beastmaw. At the same time, the master of Oscurit arrived. Ralgos fought against the entire Horde in Ashenvale that moved against the Dragon as soon as Kalmore came to know about the wyrm's presence. The battle was hard as there was not only a mind controlled Hirgma and Faramos noblehouse, but the the wyrm himself, who, later, showed up, almost slaughtering every attacker. The battle was hard and more than once Ralgos was about to prevail. Only at the end, when everyone was now weak, supported by the magic of two paladins, a druid and Ronto, Thorrim suceeded in dealing the last killing blow to the enormous wyrm and he collapsed on the ground lying dead in Azshara. Ralgos, master of Lord Faramos, died that day. The leader of the rebels of the Blue Dragonflight died that day. Nyttja Gello, looking at the losses from both sides, asked to make peace and Oscurit, in a drammatic situation, had to acept.

Summing up all This Mess
Oscurit's lore in a few words.

Oscurit, aka Lord Rayan Marcus Faramos, was the child of a famous noble of Lordaeron and a skilled mage of the Kirin Tor. When the Scourge arrived, comming from Silvermoon where Shyna, his new wife was already killed, he got turned into an undead and, also, freed himself not long time ago. Eventually he regained back his well and ran away when Tichondrius was dead and Archimonde destined to fall. The mage was without hope and wanted to travel to Northrend. There he found the Blue Dragons. After months of challanges, Faramos became a dragonsworn of the flight. Disguising as the noble Faramos he was once, the undead claimed to serve the Horde while spying on them for his master Ralgos, often involved in wars such as Ahn'quiraj or political conflicts in Silvermoon. Later, he even served his flight and the Horde togheter, defending the Sunwell from the Burning Legion. Atleast this happened until the Nexus War. He supported the Blue Dragons until they failed and Malygos died. Oscurit then ran away, hiding in Undercity with his rank, there he met Mailann Shadowwalker who promised him a new hopes about forging a new military division. When Ralgos, Oscurit's master, came to him, he agreed in being a dragonsworn once more. While being under the flag of Mailan he made different researches supported by the guild. The Soul of the Frozen Death, the Arcane Storm and Vexagos are examples. When Mailan got removed from his position and a new General risen, Faramos immediatly got under an inquisition. The mage declared a cold war under Ralgos's command to the Horde. The efforts sadly failed when Ralgos died.

Recently Nyttja Gello gave Oscurit the permission of returning inside the Horde ranks, after a long punishment and having his noblerank removed.

Personality
He's paranoid and calm, but sometimes seems to get terribly mad or eccentric. The only creatures he respects are the Dragons or any creatures upon the mortal rank, there aren't many mortals that have his respect. For those reasons and for his great skills in deception, he's not afraid of entering in an enemy's base alone to talk or, rarelly, even to fight.

Criminal Record
Betrayal. Enemy of the Horde.

Appareance
Oscurit is tall, bald and, unlike some other undeads he has a mouth. He often, when not preparing for a battle, wears his old robe of the Blue Dragonflight, where there are some scales of deceased blue dragons. He also never leaves his companion. For being a rotten undead mage, he is quite muscular and the terrible smell undeads emanates is doubled on Oscurit, altrough diminuished by an arcane aura he irradiates. This aura does often affect his own voice, filling his words of an ancient echo.

Abilities
Magic is art an and we can expect Oscurit not to use the same abilities every battle. While in wars he could cast powerful abilities of a long cast time, in duels and little battles he keeps magical defenses on him and, while using deceiving abilities, weakens the target with minor spells until the time to strike him with a most powerful ability has come.
 * Arcane: Incredible. He has extremely excellent skills in arcane, tought by the Azure Dragonflight itself, his tricks are incredibly powerful and should not be understimated.
 * Frost: Excellent. He has an excellent ability over frost: he learnt his tricks during his life, while living in Dalaran.
 * Fire: Extremely Weak. He never practised much the fire spells, ending up in leaving this school as a secondary one.
 * Shadow: Advanced. He started to learn this school during the Third War, when undead. He eventually mastered it while working for the Shadows of Lordaeron and obtaining the Soul.

As every undead, the light does greatly weaken him.

Alignement
Oscurit is a Lawfull Neutral one, altrough his methods are starting to assemble a more Lawful Evil behavour.

Creations
This setion is merely for Oscurit's creation, no followers or pets.
 * Vexagos, who became also Oscurit's chosen mount, is said to be a Crystal Drake, an experiment made by both Ralgos and Oscurit to obtain a dragon that could aid them during the Nexus War. While Vexago is weak physically, his spells could overcome the ones of a dragon and is able to reflect the spell casted against him or assorb (even if for a short time) the magic around him.
 * Soul of the Frozen Death: This was initially a crystal of the Blue Flight able to assorb the magic of every kind. Faramos asked the deathcaster to copy their powers inside the gem, aswell as channeling the phylactery he obtained from a Lich in Araj and the knowledge of Scholomance. He has discovered that this weapon has become linked to him in an unimmaginable way: a phylactery. It also contains the copied power of Meverel, Rakia, Grailen and Icor.
 * The Arcane Storm: this was a weapon and a set of a legendary myth. Is rumored that, when a spellcaster wears it, he can merge with arcane magic itself, being so able to cast incredible spells with a minimum cost of energy and in a quite short time. Once the staff was wielded by the half-elven form of Ralgos, the azure dragon, it has been later stolen and brought to Outland. The ethereals unlocked its real power, creating a real storm of arcane energy. Sadly, when the Faramos claimed the staff back, the Ethereals weren't able to produce such energy to slaughter the noblehouse and they lost the weapon. Now Faramos wields the entire set, obtained with the support of the Shadows of Lordaeron and his noblehouse.

Quotes

 * Yes, once my name was Rayan Marcus Faramos, a noble name of a great family, but i lost my honor, and i must remember this forever, or until i wont redeem myself. That's why i call myself Oscurit. (To Tortus, while explaining the origins of his 'nickname'.)
 * I am Oscurit, the Malygos's Helper. I know the secrets of both Kalimdor and Northrend alike, i keep artifacts and ancient tomes of the greatest sorcerors for my masters. I know you would do whatever to stay alive, and, also, that you need magic, you need it as humans need water. So i offer you the chance to join me, as my apprentice.(To Tyrya Flamehand and Roun)

Oscurit's Current Status
Oscurit status is unknown and inactive ((i'm taking a break from WoW, 2-3 weeks for now but i'm in meaning to return with my new idea)), but is rumored that he's building an incredible powerful weapon. Some members of the Shattered Hands reported that they saw Oscurit and an huge azure dragon working on a glowing blue sphere that assemble the model of a Mana Bomb. Those agents were, on the other hand, killed under unknown circumstances. It is possible that Ravanir and Murior were behind the assassinated rogues.

Inspiration
Well, at the first time, Oscurit wasn't an RP character, so i adacted him later. My idea, as can be seen, is a mix between Rhonin, Malygos and Krasus. Other characters also have their own influence, but not strong as those.
