Appearance​

​

Resembling the sea slug Glaucus Atlanticus mixed with a lizard, a bird, and a wolf, Lycus is a wondrous arrangement of dazzling scales, fur, and feathers. Twenty feet tall, Lycus dwarfs most men. His legs are coated in pleated scales, digits tipped in hard talons, while his six wings carry a bounty of color from darker blacks to vibrant blues and brighter hues of cerulean. Down his front is a luscious mane of silky, white fur extending from just beneath the chin all the way down to the end of his tail where a fan of long feathers takes precedence.

When Lycus flies, his body seems to lag when he ceases to beat his wings, as if suspended by water in the air. His entire body is hydrophobic and dry to the touch, even when felt beneath the water, and he often blows bubbles as he speaks and breathes. Oddly, he does not carry the scent of the ocean; rather, he is a blend of many creatures.

Lycus' tone of voice gravelly like a pleasing baritone that carries through the water as well as it does through the air. At present, he wears no accessory of any kind.

Upon Lycus' right shoulder is an inverted triangle, the Magemark for Aqua. Were a Mystic to sense him, he would read as if possessing Sixth Order Imber, a moderate amount of Aether, and little else.

Personality​

Lycus is patently /odd/, that sort of creature filled with excitement for the unknown yet cautious, restrained, and respectful. One might liken the Krakon to a well-trained dog, waiting for the command to pounce on what holds its attention. Mentored by the Arche of Lacon, Lævos, upon the shattering of his identity several years ago, Lycus was taught to behave in a way that runs counter to his predatory, abyssal instincts so that he might ignore his urges in order to attain more of what he desires. He sees the Arche as his father, and every other Cor'ai or Krakon are likewise his extended family, though this familial bond is not enough to ingratiate his detached mindset.

Many know Lycus from prior to his mental shattering twenty years prior, as he was and still is a Professor at Bastion Academy before something must have annihilated his Memorandum. He has no memory of being a student, nor any of his accomplishments and the many secrets he once held. He only knows that he once Sought Learning, but his identity has since changed.

Where the wizards flaunt their Arcane talents, so shall Lycus be there to watch with reverence, goading them on. Even small motes of Arcana are stimulating for Lycus to behold, be it the First Order experiments of a budding student or the wonders of Practices. Perceptive yet creative, he remembers everything ever said or shown to him and endeavors to apply and even share what he learns.

While Lycus would wish for nothing more than to devour every mage in sight, he prefers to cultivate a mind and grow alongside it, one day claiming it for himself; mortal minds are fragile things, and Lycus' lifespan is comparatively indefinite. He will not agree to any conflict with the Jin'Norai of Bast unless it is to pursue criminals, or to admonish one of his students. It is not uncommon to catch the Krakon drooling over impressive spellwork, confusing hunger for romantic interest in not the person, but their mind and the spells they weave.

Beyond an allegiance he swore to the Rakshasa several decades ago when he was once a student, and another to Lævos, Lycus holds no formal rank beyond that of Professor within the Department of Smoke at Bastion Academy.

History​

Risen and reconstructed by Laevos the Arche of Lacon from the mind of an ocean-dwelling dragon, Lycus was once something else, forgotten and then forgetting twice-over.

Since his rebirth as a Krakon, Lycus sought to learn more of the world, amassing a vast repertoire of knowledge and power. In that time, Lycus mastered Encaustum, Aqua, and Fathom, gifts given to him by Lævos and the Cor'ai. Through independent study, he eventually learned Apparation, Possession, and Remnant. Mysticism came naturally to him, and there might have been more to what he was, but he cannot much remember more than flashes. Hazy bits and pieces to span a thousand years. This is because something completely wiped out Lycus' Memorandum twenty years prior, causing Lycus to lose much of their shared memories. He awoke in Bastion with no memory, a Professor for the Department of Smoke now placed on administrative leave after he went wild and attempted to devour whomever he could get his talons on.

Lycus was released to the care of Lævos, brought to the Arche and given back the earliest memories they both shared and yet more. After many years of training, he was given the choice to stay, or to return to Arcanis. Wishing to know more of foreign spellwork, Lycus felt as though the Academy was his only choice, and he returned to an academic life to the surprise of many.

By now, he Sought Spells, though little else had changed. Setting out into the Hollow Sea, he built for himself a Memorandum with all he knew once more; when he did so, a Rakshasa appeared to him then and threatened him: he should stay away from the trenches of those dark depths or else. It was the first clue Lycus had to understand what might have happened: perhaps he'd found something at the bottom of that trench he wasn't supposed to?

He knew better than to go digging where the cats might not appreciate, this time.

TERRITORIES​

◖🏛️ Memorandum: The Hollow Sea◗

• ​

  
  Lycus' Memorandum is a metaphysical maze of oceanic horrors, underwater lands, and coral forests, a reflection of Imber-grown life and memories; there, he has suffused memories of his travels into the waters, memories which give calm to the Hollow Sea within Avernus. Corridors of air and many old recollections of Æntaris are scattered about as pillars of marble-like coral beneath the waves.
  
  Lycus maintains various reef shelves, shoals, and mangrove swamps in this altered reality. In that sense, Lycus has claimed a 3,000 acre wide diameter area approximately five miles away from Bastion Academy and the city of Bast. The Rakshasa have approached him about this territory, threatening him to stay away from the deepest trenches of the Hollow Sea under threat of blackmail; thus far, he has complied as a condition of maintaining a peaceful coexistent with the magi and spirits of Arcanis.
  
  Much of Lycus' territory is not a pleasant place. The waters are violent without the protection of steep shelves of coral, and above the winds of Æolus conjure harmful sprays of salt and Avernean Ash upon those who brave the sea within ares of Avernus where he has not lain down significant memories of calm. Those who can breathe the water can follow highways between the corals stretching across his domain where the tides are calm and verdant, yet with little life beyond aquaflora and illusory schools of fish.
  
  Whirlpools exist upon Antarok within the Hollow Sea leading to Lycus' Memorandum in Avernus, though they only swell to life when he is near.

NPCs​

◖Rækkis◗

• ​

  
  Rækkis
  Lycus' Familiar, Rækkis, spends its days in Symbiotic Possession with its master. Were one to see the Familiar, it would look akin to a miniature version of Lycus due to the Embodiment of its Inner Alchemy, up to 7' in height.
  
  Where Lycus is quick to bargain, Rækkis is inherently skeptical and reserved, quietly thinking into matters more deeply into matters his master might otherwise have while providing Lycus with valuable secondary insights.
