Marlos Urnrayle

The King of Dust, Prophet of Beauty

As curated by the Ever-Seeing Librarian.

“Do I look okay?” “You look like you always do.” — Marlos Urnrayle and Abielle Huntsilver

    Let it be known that from ash and ruin, some souls twist toward light, others toward shadow—and some, like Marlos Urnrayle, toward the mirrored illusions of beauty.

    The boy who emerged from the wreckage of the Urnrayle Massacre bore neither crown nor clarity. With his noble lineage reduced to memory and bloodstains, Marlos wandered into the world wrapped in the gauze of grief and self-delusion, seeking meaning in gilded surfaces and ephemeral pleasures. Though self-obsessed and vain, there was within him a spark—a yearning to embody the grandeur his parents once postured, yet never attained.

Biography

Part 1

   After tensions between the Lord and Lady of Farshade and the townsfolk reached a boiling point, peasants stormed Urnrayle Manor, killing the Lord and Lady violently. Marlos Urnrayle was present for this event and in retaliation erupted into blind violence and bludgeoned thirty commoners to death. The rest fled the town, never to return. Marlos lost his memory of this event, the only surviving records are reports from local guards at the time and the rare eyewitness testimony. 
  In the year 1500, he crossed paths with Abielle Huntsilver and Aelar Siannodel in the mist-veiled hamlet of Willow's Larch. There, with the careless charm of wealth, he tasked them with reclaiming family jewels from one of his decaying estates. What followed, however, drew him deeper into the storm of destiny.


Part 2

    Alongside the fellowship later named The A-Team , Marlos aided in the thwarting of Prisoner 108, a figure bent on annihilating the town. This act, whether of heroism or convenience, marked the beginning of his slow spiral into relevance. He followed the group northward to Amphail, where politics, ever the poison and the panacea of nobility, ensnared him once more. And when blades were drawn and fates sealed at the Unknown, it was Marlos who stood among those who defied the darkness beneath.

    After the events of the Urnrayle Incident, his visage shifted and darkness took hold. Transfigured into a Gorgon, Marlos flew into a rampage and fled.

Part 3

After the Urnrayle Incident, Marlos was imprisoned by Unknown. Windharrow entrapped Marlos in the dungeon of his castle, in a cell covered in mirrors. This, alongside his distance from Unknown, caused Marlos to slowly lose his sanity. Monthes later when the A-Team invaded the castle to stop Windharrows experiments they discovered Marlos. Windharrow had surgically attached five Avariel wings to Marlos and his appearance had become more monstrous. In his escape, he fought the A-Team, during which he faced Abbey breaking the mirror he once gave to her.  Marlos fled Windharrow's castle and his current whereabouts are unknown.
