Zvahl family shenanigans for my au/rewrite
In this, Jo and Castor are brothers :))
Transcription:
Sasha :3
Sasha was originally from the same village Cadenza and Laurance were from. When she was young one day her parents decided to visit their home village while Sasha stayed home with her grandmother because she caught a fever. Sasha's parents died when the village was set ablaze and Sasha was raised by her grandmother until she was 13, as her grandmother passed away. Rather than ending up in a community home or on the streets she essentially bullied Castor into accepting her as his apprentice. The only bird related spell she remembers after she got turned into a shadow knight is how to turn people into swans because it was the first spell Castor taught her
I love Castor as a Character, but he doesn't have a lot of screentime. Which is a shame to me because there is so much you can do with the guy. So since I'm bored and inspired, I came up with my own Castor backstory.
Castor grew up in Meteli. He's only five years older than Laurance and Candezea. His family wasn't the best. They weren't cruel by any means, just neglectful. And as any child would do without adult supervision, Castor started to explore and playing with things he didn't understand. He so realizes he had a natural gift, he had magicks. He could feel energy around him, and deal with spirits.
As he grew older, he began to experiment with potions and became one of the best in town. His favorite thing about it was experimenting with potions and magicks and seeing the effects. But he also shared his knowledge. He taught Candezea how to make dyes, and other paint for natural stuff. He taught Sasha some potion skills. And he even taught Laurance some survivalist skills.
One day however Castor was exploring the as normal when he came across a portal of shorts in a cave on the outskirts of the village. He kept the portal existence to himself at first, as he wanted to explore everything about it himself alone. He went in the nether a number of times, however he was always lucky and smart enough to stay away from the obvious fortress holding something or rather someone. Mainly explore the many different biomes the nether had to offer. He always made sure to take stuff from the nether for experiments and new potions. He would become quite skilled at finding his way back to the portal going back and forth.
One day, he was confronted by Lord Joh. Castor's reputation was both good and bad. Those close to him knew he was harmless, but due to his skills and the fact he was a bit weird he was often feared and framed for stuff he didn't do. Most of the time, his name can be cleared easily. Joh was a friend, but as a Lord he had to figure out what Castor was doing as complaints started to show up. Castor, already used to this, agreed to show Joh and his guards on the condition it had to be nighttime.
Joh was confused, as nighttime was very dangerous, but he agreed. So, when night arrived, Castor showed Joh, Laurance, and Sasha the nether portal. Laurance and Sasha were worried and concerned since both were guards and knew how dangerous the nether was. Joh told Castor that he couldn't enter the nether anymore, and while Castor was a bit disappointed, he agreed.
Days passed, and Castor kept his word. He even figured out how to grow the nether ingredients at his own home. All was going well; Sasha was even promoted to head guard. All the sudden Joh was taken and pulled into the nether. The guards were rounded up for a rescue mission, but no one knew their way around the nether. No one but Castor, who agreed to join and help his friend.
Castor led the group to the nether and entered the place he avoided. The nether fortress always gave Castor a bad feeling, as if something wasn't right. Like the spirits were telling him to run. As a Shaman, Castor tried to listen to the spirits warning when he could. And like always he was proven right. They managed to grab Joh, but sadly they lost Sasha.
Castor grieved for his lost friend and apprentice, and it didn't help that people were blaming him. He started to drink to cope with the loss. He made a decision, No one would ever enter that nether portal again. He talked to Joh and agreed to move to the outskirts of town near that damned portal. He cast a spell, so the portal was hidden to those that didn't know the location. He made sure guard it should anything enter the portal or worse come out. However, this came with a cost, his mental health. Being isolated wasn't the best, and he was painted as nuts by the villagers. Laurance, Candezea, and Joh visited when they could, but it wasn't often, nor could they stay long.
So, when Joh died it hit him hard. That's when he started to go a bit crazier, declaring himself lord of chickens. He attempted to run for Lord, but he didn't really care about the position. But his work doubled when Cadenza accidently turned into a chicken. He tried to fix it, but if him being kidnapped and encouraged to drink more he couldn't help her.
When Old Meteli got attacked, he led the people to safety. He showed Hayden the way to Phoenix Drop and gave him some healing potions for the injured. During the attack and even the war, Castor fought as many soldiers as he could. He wasn't the strongest, but people often underestimate him, so he used that to his advantage. Plus, he was pretty strong himself he could handle the rush of soldiers.
After the 15-year time skip, he got grew crazier and mellowed out. He stopped drinking as much due to age reasons and moved into the ruins of Old Meteli. However, due to years of isolation, his age, he started to experience problems. He got sick easier and grew more tired faster. He could hold it off a bit, but it still had an effect on him. Candezea and Hayden (When he was alive), would visit occasionally but that was few and far between.
More time passed and when Alina was around four. Aphmau got a message from Candezea saying that she needed help. The war with Shad was over as well as the threat of Tu'la. So, Aphmau was confused on what could be so urgent. Aphmau brought Laurance since she was visiting Meteli. When they got there Candezea told them that the people were claiming that Castor killed someone. The claims were based on the fact Castor was seen by Cloud and Vincent making a coffin and craving a tombstone.
All three of them knew Castor wouldn't kill anyone, but they were concerned. So, they went to check it out. They first saw the tombstone in the ground next to a hole, which read: "Here lays Castor Aatamgosh. Lord of Chickens and Hopefully a good friend.". Obviously, this shocks them, as One because Castor isn't dead yet, and two the fact he was planning his own funeral alone. When they confront him about it, he tells them the truth. He's dying. He has been for a while now. He tried to hold the illness back, but it wouldn't last forever, nor did he want it to.
The next couple days Castor stayed in New Meteli, much to Castor's weak protest at first. Candezea got him the best doctors she can, and Aphmau tried to help him by using her healing magicks. But sadly, there isn't much anyone could do. At the request of Candezea and Laurance, Castor agrees to spend the rest of his life in New Meteli in two conditions. Castor's chickens must be cared for, and he is to be buried in Old Meteli. Conditions Candezea wasn't expecting but agreed to.
Castor doesn't live long after the rearrangement was made, he kind of just stop prolonging his life, he realized it wasn't right and decided to just enjoy the time he has left. After he died, he left his stuff to the people he cares about. He left his food to his chickens which are all vegan. Candezea was left with all of his jewelry and Old Meteli along with his old house on the outskirts. Laurance was left with his weapons and his liquor. His potions were split between the two siblings.
Aphmau was surprised when she was left a letter. She didn't expect to get anything from Castor. The two weren't close by any means. They weren't enemies, they were allies, but they weren't exactly friends. When she opened it, she found the letter was explaining everything not only to her but to Laurance and Candezea as well. His past, his thoughts, and his knowledge on things he learns. And on the bottom was a map and a chant. As they follow it, Laurance remembered the path. They reach the spot and enact the chant. It reveals the nether portal Castor spent so long guarding. Aphmau and Candezea were shocked, Laurance wasn't but he wasn't happy about the portal. They agreed to keep the portal under lock and key which wasn't too hard as the portal was in a deep cave.
The group kept their word and buried Castor in Old Meteli. Not where everyone was buried but close enough. His burial place was on a hill overlooking the town. His tombstone read: "Here lied Castor Aatamgosh. A beloved friend. Lord of Chickens. Great teacher. And protector."
seeing castor build his chicken houses with a block of tnt and aphmau silently making a button has me screaming
