Subject  My Life, and Quest



Born into a Bozak family, Kosch always felt different from the
rest of them,
he always had this feeling that he was more than a simple
draconian, he felt
that he had a special gift granted to him.

Through his childhood years, Kosch ignored this feeling and grew
up has a
regular bozak draconian.

One day while looking up high into the night sky seeing the black
moon
Nuitari, he felt a surge of power, confused by this he stayed
sitting there in
deep meditation, thinking of what this could possibly be.

Has the days passed he realized he had been blessed with the gift
of magic,
the art.  He trained both his body and soul in hopes to one day
join the
Conclave, amongst the order of black robes.

After being accpted into conclave, Kosch, made a goal for
himself, which is,
to further improve his gift, to go further in the art of magic.

Subject  The Hunt of the Shadow



As Kosch, walked through the city of Palanthas, something
seemed different,
he sensed a large power somewhere near him.

He quickly cast a spell of invisibility and decided to hunt
this horrible
beast.

Scanning and using his gift he located the beast at the
Palanthas Library,
he went into a deep state of concentration then moments later
began his attack
on this shadow beast.

Using his magical talents to blind and weaken the beast is
appeared as
though he had the upper hand, but then in a sudden change of
events the beast
had the upper hand and Kosch was forced to flee.

Quickling healing himself, his anger rose and his hands
vibrated slightly,
his bloodlust had been stirred and his thoughts were only on the
destrucction
of this beast.

While hunting this beast he accompanied two men, Kroog and Lanz
and they
went together in search of this shadow.  Kosch was having trouble
finding this
shadow beast but didn't give up.

Finally, following the blood of the beast and smelling its
"unique" odor, he
found the beast in the outskirts of Palanthas.

Kosch, along with some new met friends, fought the beast and in
the end they
were victorious.

With the Shadow beast slain at his feet, he grinned.  Leaving
the dead
corpse Kosch returned to Palanthas, where he spend the rest of
the day in
meditation.  He thanked Nuitari for gifting him with his
abilities in the art
of magic.

Subject  A Mage's Decision




Kosch walked through the streets of Neraka, thinking about what
had just
happenned only a few moments ago.  He stopped and sat down as he
began to look
back.

Kosch stood before Galaphale and Renli, two people who he had
known for all of
 his days, and to who were almost brothers to him.

They spoke of how the order of mages known as the Conclave has
collapsed and
thepossibility of leaving and becoming Renegades.

After hours of conversation, Kosch nodded then strolled off on
his own.

Kosch arrived at the outskirts of Solace, he sat and began to
think to
himself.

"It is true that my place is no longer in Conclave, but will i
become a
Renegade....will i become the type of person I once hunted..."

Kosch seemed to be fighting a battle against his past.

"Would Nuitari forsake me if I left, would he abandon me...."

These questions and countless more seemed to run through Kosch's
mind.

Hours passed, and the day turned to night, as Kosch finally stood
up, 
reaching his decision.

"No more shall I look towards the past, but now....Now I will
look towards
the  future"

Instantaneously, Kosch was summoned by Galaphale, nodding he
bagan to
removehis black robes and drop all he had that belonged to the
Conclave.

Kosch slowly made his way out of the tower of wayreth, his home
for the past
fewyears.

Kosch nodded to Galaphale and Renli, as each of them were about
to begin their
 new lives as Renegades, no longer bound by anything except their
friendship
for one another.
