Character intro: Arthus Aurelius

Arthur was born to the family Aurelius, and as such was baptized in the waters of the Lazarus pit a tradition their family has done for generations. As a child he watched the knights and squires and usually played as if he was one with the other children. In his teenage years an opportunity came up for him to become a squire and this over joyed him. The duties of tending to the knight wasn't all for he had to be versed in scriptures as it would help him focus or so the lore would be. Reaching his eighteenth year, he went before the king and vowed his life to the family and welfare of all mankind, becoming a Knight himself and protector of the realm.

As time fled by he realized that members of his family seemed to either age slower or seem not at all after the 25th year. Instead growing wiser and honing in their battle skills until a moment of urgency would call them to defend. Not all were knights, but served their purpose in some way or another. A paladin title was given to those knight whom lived a century or more and fable was that the great spirit would bless the faithful with a holy energy able to heal allies, but drive back evil.

Looks interesting

Pfft. Boy scout.

I do have a serious question, though; how can he be alive for one hundred years, but be around in what seems to be medieval times?

@vici_aurelius: so I was trying to sell that the waters gave our bloodline extended or slower aging process, keeping us looking around 25. If such the case then Arthur was from that era and has watched the world around him change, whilst defending it from evil doers. I am upping the actual age to be more sensible.

I think its some sort of separate society thing at least that's what I got from it

@mth_: I am part of family Aurelius ask _vex_ if you'd like to join

@palidan: What I meant was that medieval times was way more than a hundred years ago, but I guess it's a moot point now that it's been updated.

I'm actually trying to start my own family and I have been for as long as vex its just I wasn't as aggressive about starting it and so now everyone seems to be in his family that's interested in new family except for a very small few

@vici_aurelius: True brethren, let us celebrate our family namesake with fresh ale and wenches..

@arthur_aurelius: What...

@raysh_al_shaytan: Months ago, it was an era of empire claims. Now the families are making a comeback. I wonder what'll be next...

QFT. Real curious to see what'll be next. I'm guessing something Avengers related. Age of Ultron is close. Possibly the Inhumans idea will get heavy play too.

@raysh_al_shaytan: I'd say that sounds about right. I can see it already. Then, it'll be Batman VS Superman.

@vici_aurelius: Oh an Daredevil lol cant forget Daredevil.

@raysh_al_shaytan: @vici_aurelius: nice how yall chose here to discuss that.

@arthur_aurelius: Um...sorry, I guess.

nah it gave my thread more posts, even if unrelated.

I was expecting someone to completely renovate their character for this IRL AV.

Not bad.
