• Biography

His name: Elijah Morrigan. Once an archeologist and mage, Elijah's fate took a dark turn with his discovery of an ancient gravesite.

Delving into its depths, he unearthed the Necronomicon, its sinister power undeniable. Tempted by its promises, he delved deeper, sacrificing souls for forbidden knowledge. However, with each soul, corruption seeped into his being, threatening to devour him entirely. Driven by a desperate desire to thwart the encroaching corruption, Elijah made a fateful choice. Exiled by his mother for his crimes to the dawn of time, he wandered the abyss for eons, grappling with remorse. Upon his return, he sought redemption through an audacious act—embracing his family's legacy as the Eclipse, a symbol of Death and Rebirth. Determined to atone, he embarked on a dark journey, delving into the forbidden arts to become a living lich. By binding his soul to his body, he preserved his sanity amidst the darkness. Though guilt—a shadow on his immortal existence—remained ever-present

• Timeline

Expand

• 1844 - The Beginning:

April 1st, 1844: Elijah Morrigan is born into a prestigious occultist family in the United Kingdom. Raised with knowledge of dark arts, forbidden magic, and lost civilizations, he is trained to respect ancient wisdom and the pursuit of forbidden knowledge.

• Childhood (1844-1854):

Early Curiosity: From a young age, Elijah displays remarkable intelligence, quickly mastering languages, cryptography, and ancient texts. His inquisitive nature leads him to discover forbidden books in his family’s library, sparking an early fascination with the hidden truths of the world. Magical Affinity: At age 10, Elijah begins to show an unnatural affinity for magic, demonstrating a keen understanding of ritualistic magic and occult practices. His mother recognizes his potential and begins to privately tutor him in the dark arts, though she remains wary of his growing curiosity. Discovery of Ancient Symbols: At age 12, while exploring the ruins near his home, Elijah finds a forgotten tombstone with strange symbols. This discovery marks the beginning of a lifelong obsession with uncovering the lost histories of ancient civilizations and unlocking the secrets of the past.

• 1855 - 1865: Formative Years and the Path to Archaeology
• Age 13-15:

Subtle Use of Magic: Elijah’s growing power becomes apparent as he begins using his knowledge of occult rituals to manipulate minor magical forces. Initially, he uses his talents for personal gain—such as enhancing his academic performance and charming others. Family Concerns: This indulgence in magic begins to raise suspicion among his family, particularly his mother, who fears the influence of dark forces on his soul.

• Age 16:

Boarding School: Elijah begins his formal education at a prestigious boarding school, excelling in his studies, particularly in archaeology, linguistics, and ancient history. His obsession with ancient artifacts grows, and he spends hours studying texts his family had long considered too dangerous. Academic Brilliance: Known for his academic brilliance, Elijah continues to alienate his peers with his aloof and secretive nature.

• Age 18:

Strained Family Relations: Elijah’s relationship with his family becomes strained. While his father encourages his passion for archaeology, his mother becomes increasingly concerned about his involvement with the occult and the darkness within him. Ritual Failure: Their differences culminate when Elijah attempts to secretly perform a ritual to summon a long-forgotten entity, resulting in a near-catastrophic failure. This event leaves Elijah with a deeper understanding of the dangers of his pursuits but also strengthens his resolve to continue.

• 1860

University of Birmingham: Elijah’s fascination with ancient civilizations leads him to pursue a formal education in archaeology at the University of Birmingham. His academic career flourishes, earning the respect of his professors and peers. Dark Obsession: However, his obsession with uncovering the truth about the supernatural continues to consume him, especially as he begins to learn more about the dark forces that shaped ancient societies.

• 1862-1863:

Reputation for Brilliance: At the University of Birmingham, Elijah develops a reputation for being a brilliant but eccentric scholar. He spends countless hours in the university’s archives, pouring over ancient texts and artifacts that hint at the existence of powerful and forbidden magic. Necronomicon Discovery: Elijah uncovers an ancient manuscript that speaks of an artifact capable of granting immense power: the Necronomicon. His interest is piqued, and he begins researching the book’s legend, believing it might hold the key to unlocking the secrets of immortality and transcending human limitations.

• 1864

Increased Obsession: Elijah’s growing obsession with the Necronomicon leads him to isolate himself further. His studies intensify, and he begins to experience disturbing visions of dark entities that seem to communicate through the ancient texts. Visionary Influence: These visions push him deeper into the world of dark magic, transforming him from a mere academic into a future master of forbidden knowledge.

• 1865

Graduation: Elijah graduates with honors from the University of Birmingham, recognized as one of the brightest minds in archaeology. However, his time at the university also marks him as someone touched by dark forces. Setting Sights on Necronomicon: As he prepares to leave the academic world and embark on a career of fieldwork, Elijah has already set his sights on the Necronomicon and the dark path he believes it will lead him down.

• 1866 - The Music Revelation
• 1866: After years of immersion in archaeology and arcane studies, Elijah feels a growing sense of disconnection from the world around him. Despite his achievements, something is missing—a feeling of purpose and passion beyond his research and magic. Seeking a reprieve from the pressures of academia, he decides to attend a lively music hall one evening, drawn by the vibrant energy and human connection that the arts seem to offer. The hall is filled with an eclectic mix of people, from the working class to intellectuals, all united by their love for music.

As Elijah sits among the crowd, he becomes unexpectedly captivated by the raw emotion and energy of the performers. The rhythm of the music, the flow of the melodies, and the harmony between the performers resonate deeply within him. He finds himself not only moved by the emotional power of the music but also attuned to something deeper—he feels the music vibrating with a hidden arcane energy. It is in this moment that Elijah realizes that music is not just an art form, but a potent tool for emotional manipulation and magic. His sharp intellect connects the dots: music has the power to influence the mind and spirit, to sway emotions, and perhaps even manipulate the flow of magic itself.

This revelation transforms his understanding of the arcane. Music, with its vibrational energy and ability to transcend the senses, becomes a key element in his magical training. From this night forward, he begins to weave music into his rituals, experimenting with sound as both an emotional and magical conduit. His newfound musical talent adds a powerful layer to his studies, combining his archaeological knowledge, his growing magical abilities, and the mystical forces of sound to create a unique blend of magic and art.

• 1867 - Discovery of the Necromonicon

1867: Elijah stumbles upon the Necronomicon, an ancient and forbidden tome rumored to house unimaginable knowledge of the cosmos and dark arts. The book’s overwhelming pull drags him into a dangerous spiral, and he begins to experiment with its contents. His newfound thirst for power drives him into soul sacrifice, but Elijah chooses his victims carefully—only those whose souls are already tainted by corruption. He sacrifices the worst of humanity: notorious criminals, corrupt politicians, and those who have betrayed their own kind. These souls, tainted with greed, malice, and deception, become the fuel for his dark rituals. Through their sacrifice, Elijah believes he can gain greater control over his destiny, harnessing the corrupted essence of those who have already sold their own souls to darkness.

• 1872 - Descent into Darkness
• 1868-1872: As Elijah’s obsession with the Necronomicon grows, he succumbs further to its corruptive influence. His experimentation with shadow magic and soul magic accelerates, as he seeks immortality and control over life and death. The more he sacrifices, the more he loses pieces of his humanity, but also gains new powers, including blood magic and the manipulation of the world around him through reality-bending techniques.

A Mind Transformed: Elijah’s growing magical prowess begins to shape his intellect. He gains an understanding of the interconnectedness of magic and reality. He starts seeing patterns in the world that others would miss, evolving into a more calculating and strategic thinker.

• 1875 - ???? Exile to the Dawn of the Time
• 1875: To stop the corruption consuming him, Elijah’s mother, a powerful sorceress, exiles him to the dawn of time, a place before the universe, where existence has not yet taken shape. This is not a timeless void but a primordial void—a blank canvas of reality before the laws of time and space as we know them began to exist. Though he cannot physically grow or age, the absence of the constraints of time allows his mind to expand and deepen at an extraordinary rate.

Mental Growth in the Void: Though there is no traditional time in this space, Elijah’s mind is unaffected by the lack of temporal passage. Instead of becoming stagnant, Elijah's intellect accelerates. He discovers ways to internalize knowledge that he cannot directly experience. Without the distractions of time or the influence of other beings, Elijah starts meditating deeply, analyzing the laws of magic, reality, and existence at their most fundamental level.

Mental Ascension: In the dawn of time, Elijah learns how to refine his intellect beyond mere academic knowledge, allowing his mind to traverse conceptual realms and understand the underlying structural rules that govern magic and existence itself. His calculations become far sharper, able to anticipate potential outcomes and strategies with flawless precision. He starts perceiving patterns in chaos, intuitively grasping the framework of what would later become the known universe. His problem-solving skills evolve, turning him into a master of foresight.

Understanding the Abyss of Self: Elijah’s isolation forces him to confront his past actions, and he spends centuries unraveling his deepest flaws. He learns that the power of his soul and the minds of others are linked by subtle energies. This knowledge allows him to gain complete control over his shadow magic, bloodbending, and soul magic, learning to manipulate the essence of life itself in far more advanced ways.

Understanding the Shadow Realm: Through mental fortitude, Elijah gains an intuitive grasp of shadow magic and how it connects to the fabric of reality. He learns how to bend shadows into physical manifestations, mold them to serve as extensions of his will, and use them as weapons or shields. His study of soul magic also allows him to use soul-bound shadows, creatures of darkness that are empowered by the souls he once sacrificed.

• ???? - 1900 - The Return of The Eclipseborne
• 1900: After his centuries of isolation, Elijah returns from the primordial void, fundamentally changed. His mind is far sharper and more capable than before, and his magical abilities have reached unparalleled heights. He returns to the mortal realm as The Eclipseborne, a figure who symbolizes the union of death and rebirth, seeking redemption for his past actions while wielding vast powers with unmatched precision.

Master of Reality-Bending: Elijah’s understanding of reality manipulation reaches its peak. He can now warp reality itself, creating illusory worlds and altering perceptions to his will. His mastery of bloodbending allows him to manipulate the essence of others as well, controlling their vital force or creating blood constructs for defense or offense.

Strategic Manipulator: His intellect now allows him to see multiple possible futures based on the smallest of decisions. Elijah has become a grandmaster of strategy, calculating moves far ahead of others, often appearing as if he controls the very course of events. His cunning and wisdom are unmatched, and his goals are never rash but executed with meticulous planning.

The Shadow King: Elijah is now a ruler of the shadows, able to move between worlds and realities at will. His shadow magic is so advanced that he can alter the balance of light and dark itself, bending the very laws of nature to protect or manipulate as he sees fit. His soul magic has expanded to allow him to steal the essence of others, using it to fuel his spells or increase his power.

• 1905 - Living Lich
• 1905: Elijah undergoes the final transformation, binding his soul to his body to become a living lich. In this form, he exists as an entity straddling life and death, with access to necromantic powers that allow him to control the dead and bend their will to his own. This transformation ensures that he will never again be vulnerable to death and solidifies his place as a master of both life and the afterlife.

• 1920 - The Seeker of Balance

1920: Elijah has established himself in the world, carefully hiding his true nature while working to maintain balance. He becomes a figure who works from the shadows, gathering ancient knowledge, sealing dangerous artifacts, and manipulating the events of the world to ensure that no single power or influence becomes too great.

• Neutral Observer: As a strategic manipulator, Elijah balances the forces of light and darkness, ensuring that neither side becomes too dominant. He actively prevents others from gaining access to forbidden knowledge, as he once did, knowing the dangers of unchecked power. His role as a silent guardian gives him great influence over key events in history, though few know of his existence.
