Aoth Anskuld

Aoth Anskuld is the Tidemaster of Artus as of 1,283 AY and a nephilim agent of Ianke. As Tidemaster, Aoth has two major places of residence: within the halls the Mandate Citadel, as well as the Sword of Enerin, the pride and joy of the Artus naval fleet.

An active agent of Ianke, Aoth works to subtly influence the Everglade Council and Juleel Artus himself to work in alignment with the plans of the Areuic pantheon. A dry, reserved fellow, Aoth is usually the one arguing against rash action, often overstepping his boundaries and stepping on the toes of his other Council members.

Description
Outwardly, Aoth resembles a half-elf with sea elf ancestry. He has the pointed ears of a half-elf, and the shimmering silver skin (dulled with human blood) of the sea elf people. His eyes are white (which is a convenient cover: white is both the eye colors of sea elves and nephilim). He often wears his full sea attire at all times: thick burgundy petticoats with ornate iron buttons. He can grow a smattering of a beard, but it doesn’t come in more than patches. Keen eyes: around his face is a cross web of crows feet.

Personality
While Aoth promotes a very reserved and measured presence in public, in private the years of battling a shadowy faction he barely understands has done a number on his mental health. He is frayed at the ropes, overwhelmed with the weight of his duty. He desperately, desperately wants help.

Activities
As an agent of Ianke, Aoth is actually moving against one of his own council members (Valduun); albeit unknowingly. Thanks to Rusesh’s nature, the actions of his agents are shrouded against the other god’s sight; Aoth is one agent on the ground attempting to uncover what is happening here.

As a result, Aoth has kept his nature as a nephilim very secret; few know his true power.

History
Born in 1,195 AY to a coastal settlement on the south-western corner of Salbus. His angelic essence was made obvious from an early age, when he lept off a cliff to save a friend who fell, his wings sprouting for the first time as he did so. From there, communication with an angel under Ianke, Galatea, began in earnest. This led him to becoming a sailor of great renown; eventually, after Juleel settled in as Emperor, he elected Aoth as his Tidemaster.

Aoth has worked this position for decades, working counter to Rusesh’s attempts to destabilize Artus.
