   Keys: Background, Backstory, Lore

   O'saa was born with a Enlightened soul, and grew up in chaotic Abyssonia, where endless conflict and warring factions were the norm. He disliked those who fought over ancient disputes and grudges passed down by their ancestors, despite the godlike reverence shown to them. O'saa found no solace in such beliefs and knew that Europa, to the north, was no better. There, they worshiped ancient deities they had never seen, and their disputes spilled across borders in an endless cycle of Great Wars. He decided to leave his family and headed to the City of the Sun - Amon to pursue education in spiritualism and religion, determined not to be a pawn in the north's quest for the country's resources. There he excelled as an apprentice, and with the Great War closing Abyssonian borders, he sought to learn as much as possible before leaving the continent. At the Temple of Amon, he had a choice of various spiritual schools to study.

   He quickly excelled at the temple, surpassing even the older priests. However, he soon realized that religion was used to control the masses and didn't want to serve the ruling class. Discovering an ancient scroll about the yellow mages, who harnessed the power of the gods for personal gain and believed in chaos, O'saa left the temple to find them in the Eastern Sanctuaries. O'saa arrived in Eastern Sanctuaries and discovered that even the local temples followed the worship of Alll-mer, with religion dictating people's lives. Despite facing scorn for his beliefs from scholars and religious leaders, O'saa remained unwavering. He eventually impressed the Yellow mages with his conviction, and they invited him to join their own. They were reduced to a small group of traveling mages who studied various fields of the otherworldly. O'saa joined them to further his personal growth and agenda using the force of the gods, continuing his path of learning and self-growth.

   The magician O'saa eventually met Hadil Azif, a self-proclaimed wizard from the far east who was gathering a group of adventurers to accompany him on a perilous quest to the infamous dungeons of fear and hunger. Despite initially dismissing Hadil's talks, O'saa was haunted by nightmares the following night and felt compelled to witness the place himself. He joined Hadil's group of adventurers and traveled through war-torn Europa. However, most of the crew quit halfway to Rondon due to the difficulties of crossing borders during chaotic times. As they got closer to their destination, O'saa's dreams became more intense, and the remaining members of the group were visibly sick from stress and otherworldly pressure. When they finally arrived at the dungeons, heavy fog made navigation impossible, and distant growls and howls added to the tension. The group panicked and scattered, and O'saa ventured forward alone, leaving a sick Hadil behind. As O'saa entered the ruins, what had led him there was calling out to him feverishly from beneath the rocks and rubble. He dug through the piles with his bare hands, and eventually found the source of the voice: the burnt and mummified severed head of Nas'hrah, the wizard. O'saa was surprised to find that his master, who had been absent for so long, was surprisingly up to date with the twists and turns of the world. The master had a mission for him - something that could further his knowledge on dark matters greatly. As a yellow mage, O'saa was supposed to follow his own ambitions and greed, but he decided to play along. After all, that was the common relationship between a master yellow mage and their apprentice. He was to travel to a small country in eastern Europa with the beheaded wizard, to a town called Prehevil. His master promised events of cosmic proportions, something that would turn the tides of the world for good. The head left out details from his story on purpose, but that didn't bother O'saa. With little information about the task at hand, he prepared for the trip. Every night, he saw nightmares of the horrors that awaited him in Prehevil, where he would be chosen as a contestant for the Festival of Termina, an event he is apparently familiar with. O'saa is not very talkative with the others, but will reveal that he is far more knowledgeable of the situation than the rest of the stranded group.

   Keys: Nas'hrah, The Bringer of Chaos, The Plague of Modern Times, Great Wizard of the East

   During the second age of history, which began with the reign of the so-called New Gods in the year 410, a figure named Nas'hrah emerged as a notable presence. Referred to as the "Bringer of Doom and Terror", Nas'hrah held a distinct position within this group, setting them apart from their predecessors. Although the concept of new gods existed in ancient times, Nas'hrah's inclusion elevated this particular group. Upon his ascension, he ended up succeeding Betel and assuming his position within the grand libraries in Ma'habre. The exact nature of the events surrounding Nas'hrah's interaction with Betel remains unclear. However, it is acknowledged that Nas'hrah employed an act of trickery that ignited a fury among his fellow New Gods. As Nas'hrah's reign as a deity was marred by his cruelty and sadistic tendencies, he was met with abhorrence and revulsion from his peers. Simultaneously, Nas'hrah held their methods and ideologies in contempt, viewing them as weak and ineffectual and fostering a mutual disdain between them. He once held sway over the Eastern Sanctuaries as a sultan. His relentless campaigns against the Kingdom of Edo in the 8th century, although ultimately unsuccessful in expanding his dominion, exposed his lust for power and bloodshed. Nas'hrah's cultural influence permeates the Eastern Sanctuaries, leaving an imprint on its history. Unexpectedly, his observation of the prowess exhibited by his adversaries in Edo led him to forge a nation within the boundaries of the Eastern Sanctuaries, known as Yansa Aryuaban. In this endeavor, high-status war prisoners from Edo were appointed as central figures, tasked with emulating the ways of their Edo counterparts in meticulous detail. The purpose behind this endeavor was to cultivate a warrior class - though the realization of Nas'hrah's vision required the passage of centuries, his determination bore fruit in the form of the Jizamurai. Nas'hrah is also responsible for the creation of the enigmatic Yellow mages. This sect of magical practitioners, shaped by their master's ideology, harnessed otherworldly powers for personal gain and the advancement of their own agendas, forsaking the path of traditional worship of the gods. While the presence of the Yellow mages has gradually diminished over time, remnants of their existence can still be found reveling in chaos, steadfast in their adherence to Nas'hrah's teachings. During the events of Fear & Hunger in the 16th century, Nas'hrah's physical form has been reduced to a mere beheaded entity. He believes that restoring his body is crucial to his ultimate goal of exacting revenge upon the other New Gods who have wronged him. To this end, he is willing to offer his assistance to those who can help him achieve his aim, directing them towards a long-forgotten laboratory in the depths of Ma'habre. If the player accompanies the wizard to this location, Nas'hrah will generate a clone of himself. Yet, upon careful examination, he deems the newly formed body unworthy of becoming his vessel once more. Dismissing it as a mere substitute, Nas'hrah instead opts to rely on sheer brute force in his confrontation with the New Gods and reduce the rejected body to ashes if given the opportunity. Nas'hrah's fate within the dungeons of Fear and Hunger remains shrouded in ambiguity, with little detail provided about the precise events that transpired. However, it is known that his existence was reduced to that of a burnt and mummified severed head, his eyes replaced by hollow, dark sockets. Many years later, in the year 1942, in the remnants of an archaeological expedition stumbled upon the remains of the dungeons and Ma'habre, an yellow mage named O'saa would ultimately free Nas'hrah from the rubble. Despite his prolonged absence, Nas'hrah appeared remarkably well-informed about the intricate twists and turns of the world. He presented O'saa with a mission that held the potential to significantly expand their understanding of the darkest realms of knowledge. Their destination was a small country in eastern Europa, a town named Prehevil. Within its confines, Nas'hrah promised events of cosmic proportions, capable of reshaping the very fabric of the world. Deliberately withholding certain details of his story, Nas'hrah intrigued O'saa, who willingly embarked on the journey alongside the beheaded wizard. Arriving in Prehevil, O'saa found himself drawn into the midst of the Festival of Termina, an extraordinary gathering hosted by the Moon God Rher. Clutching Nas'hrah's head securely within his possessions, O'saa was chosen as an active contestant in the festival.
