"I have died about a dozen times. Death is quite underrated, really. It's really quite refreshing."
-Ta'vích
Ta'vích was born in 2831G.C in the slums of the city of Hasran, Cusorea, back when these slums still existed. He was the only son of Bezí Hakreya, a factory worker, former gang member and alcoholic, and his wife Sira, a former prostitute and "property" of the same gang Bezí had been in. The two lovers had fled from the gang less than a year before Ta'vích was born in order to escape the gang life. But this was not accepted by the gang, who found them and murdered both in 2839, when Ta'vích was eight years old. The gang spared Ta'vích, but forced him to watch his parents being murdered. After that, Ta'vích was thrown out into the slum streets where he had to survive by himself. And he proved very effective at it. He started pickpocketing, thieving and fighting to survive. He committed his first murder at the age of nine, stabbing a gang member to death with a crude, home-made knife. The man is believed to have been one of the men responsible for the murder of Ta'vích's parents.
Not much is known about Ta'vích's life after that, but it is known that he kept murdering and stealing and joined a gang at the age of 19. Then, somewhere between 2860-61, Ta'vích joined the Dawned Ones, motivated by a newfound religious zeal given to him by Harbinger, as well as a desire to destroy the world that had treated him so horribly. Soon, Ta'vích proved himself to be an extremely devout follower of the cult, and a very effective killer; his feelings of remorse deadened by his hatred for the entire world. Upon the discovery of mana in 2864, Ta'vích quickly discovered he was especially gifted in the usage of dark mana, much to the delight of Harbinger and of himself. However, somewhere along the way to present day, Ta'vích's powers grew all the more powerful - and dangerous to himself - as his hatred only increased, until it went over the limit. But instead of the mana corrupting and destroying his mind, for some reason, Ta'vích instead corrupted the mana. This made his powers all the more powerful, giving him abilities such as regenerating his entire body from a single drop of blood, changing the shape of his body indefinitely, even on a cellular level, as well as being able to increase and decrease his own body mass at will. But his powers also continued to grow all the more grotesque, and came at the cost of his sanity. Now Ta'vích has been effectively turned into a monster, and that is just how he wants it.
