Mental characteristics
Personal history
The youngest son of the Nuzdulds, a low ranking noble family. Their lands compromise 215 acres of farming land and forest 4 miles southeast of Arbon. Thenik was sent to the Textrinium to study, but never graduated, having to return home after his father, mother, and 3 older siblings died, leaving Thenik the title of Baron, a burned manor, and little else. There is no record of any other living relatives.
By all accounts, Thenik spent seven years after the fire as a recluse and was rarely seen or heard from during that time. Thenik returned to court in 358 P.A. and became a close confidante of the King. In 359 P.A. Thenik became employed at the Mystrarium as the first and only “Doctor of Arcane Advancement.” Thenik’s arrival at the Mystrarium coordinated with an increase in mortality and disappearances of students. He briefly instructed students in some metamagical mechanics.
There is record of Thenik approaching King Elric with a theoretical proposition entitled “Making Mages: a Method to Artificially Improve the Arcanic Capacity and Power of Wizards” in 366 P.A. In 367 P.A. he had gained funding from Colonel Urabane Rackett, a wealthy nobleman and the first Headmaster of the Mystrarium. The next two years were spent gathering resources, finalizing experimental design, and recruiting instructors and participants. Colonel Urbane Rackett’s School of Evocation for Deployment (CURSED) officially began at Theramore Manor in 369 P.A. under Nuzduld’s supervision.
Thenik made his second proposition to the King in 379 P.A. and, given the success of his previous program, it was quickly funded by the Frons themselves. Nuzduld’s Elite Wizard War Training (NEWWT) began at The Mystrarium in 381 P.A. Nuzduld was heavily involved in the participants early training and development, leaving much of the final years of CURSED training to Colonel Rackett.
In 385 P.A. the CURSED program was shut down due to a mission incident that nearly destroyed an entire Bergian town. Nuzduld ordered the students, and anyone attempting to interfere, be eliminated. All records of the CURSED program’s existence were purged. The NEWWT students were moved to an undisclosed location. There are no records of Nuzduld’s activities from then until 404 P.A. when he re-emerged and was named Head of The Order.
In 406 P.A. he declared the students of the NEWWT program a success and revealed them to the kingdom. The next round of NEWWT has already been funded and the selection process for new students has begun.
