Neueirus Corvus Corax

Name: Neueirus Corvus Corax, known simply as Neuras. Age: 60 Race/Tribe: Ishkia - he has have two pairs of graceful if vestigial white wings that are best described as feathered growths from his back that fold around him.

Appearance: Dark-skinned, older ishkia gentleman with white hair and a thick mustache. He wears a long-sleeved shirt with blue and white stripes and a red scarf around his neck. . He drapes a long coat over his shoulders like a cape, keeping his arms and wings free. One set of wings folds across his abdomen, while the other rests freely by his side. Along with this, he wears knee-length shorts with matching sandals. Wears glasses.

Personality: The ishkias are considered a highly intelligent tribe, often holding positions as scholars and clergymen. Neuras is no exception; hailed as a genius engineer and born into a noble family, he received the best education available. However, his personality is exceptionally eccentric and quirky, to the point that even his own family views him as an incorrigible weirdo. Neuras is also a relentless workaholic. For example, he was once engaged to a nobleman's daughter, but his intense dedication to his work caused him to neglect his fiancée. By the time he remembered she existed, she had already broken off the engagement and left him.

Backstory: Originally an engineer working in the Royal Capital, Neuras' eccentricities and unconventional research drew condemnation from the Sanctist Church, which branded him a heretic. Despite this, his talents caught the attention of the royal family, who hired him as a court engineer. Neuras is fiercely loyal to the royal family, deeply indebted to them for recognizing and believing in his abilities.

Neuras confides in Will that he became the engineer he is today after meeting an elderly ishkia inventor, an eccentric figure in his own right. This inventor showed Neuras an ancient relic, which sparked a lifelong obsession with relics and their possibilities. When the inventor passed away, he left both his research and the relic to Neuras, further fueling his passion for innovation and invention.

As a court engineer, Neuras was tasked by the king with designing a gauntlet runner for the prince. Though he initially followed the blueprint provided, he eventually began making unauthorized modifications, drawing on royal funds, and, after the prince's disappearance, his own personal resources, to enhance the gauntlet runner, much to Hulkenberg's horror.

Neuras once dreamed of creating a flying gauntlet runner that did not rely on magla for flight, but his experiments failed, leading to his demotion after the prince's disappearance. He withdrew from society, utilizing a large sewer as his personal workshop, where he stored and continued to work on the royal gauntlet runner in secret.

Neuras is extremely happy to come along with Will to serve as the group's pilot for their Gauntlet Runner ensuring that Will's group travels safely from place to place during the Tournamnet for the Throne.

Neuras had opted to stay in the group's gauntlet runner for the evening while everyone was getting settled into Brilehaven, the ship always required some fine tuning and maintenance if he wanted to keep it in top-shape. Working on it was his pride and joy even if the others did not always understand how the ship worked or his machinations for his new inventions, he even managed to get the ship to fly without the use of magic.

It wasn't often that he felt lonely, in fact, hanging out with Will and helping his group explore the kingdom in their quest to help Will take the royal throne in the Tournament for the Throne made him feel younger and like a new man. He still had his family's fortune back home in Grand Trad and he had plenty of ideas in his noggin for a new invention or new development he could work on in his spare time, he had nearly everything one could ask for.

However, every so often he would remember some of his past mistakes from his earlier years from letting his only-ever fiancee go even though he only vaguely remembered courting her after being fairly sought after by nobles' daughters in the past to the guilty conscience he carried for not being more outspoken about the magic igniter experiments in his younger days even if he could have been stamped out for being outspoken, it did not rest well in his soul.

Neuras thought he was alone on the ship going about his tune-ups when he heard the wood floorboards creaking and it was too much to be the wind, lifting his head up from the engine he was working on he pushed his glasses back onto his face, focusing to see where the sound was coming from.

But things could be dire indeed if they’ve gotten into the hands of someone who knows what they are…” “Though I can’t say for certain, if the last piece isn’t used for cooling purposes, then it must altogether be…” “If my inkling is correct, then this is a problem I have to solve myself. As a man of science and a scholar of technology, it must be my solemn duty.”
