Legend:Tiyha Velgma was born in and around 1317 in the then ancient Britania kingdomw of Wales. His mother died during his birth so his father,a master knight of the well reknowed Strider clan,took care of him. It was prophecised by the great wizard of that time,named Lazurus,that Tiyha would bring order and balance to the Strider clan AND to the kingdom of Wales.
During his years of growing up,he further demonstrated this by picking up his training faster than any other Strider known to man. He even outlasted his own father in sword duels AND gained more access to "Earthture" (the system of balance on the planet earth that controled Nature as well) than any other Strider
When he was 17,King Kenneth McAlpine made the young Strider his prize knight. However,shortly after Tiyha became the most coveted knight in the Kingdom of Wales,the king became obsessed with something that Tiyha had...
That something was a young and stunningly beautiful Lady Janie. The young lady was litterally mesmorised in this young man and fell DEEPLY in love with him,and he in her (so much to the point where she actually worshipped him as almost of a love god). By now,he had just turned 18
On a diplomatic visit to the Kingdom of Wales,the utterly goddess like Queen Hara,of KingdomW,ALSO took up an "interest" in the knight (or at least people thought) as she could not keep her eyes off of the young ripe knight. This is not surprising because stories arose that she was unfaithful to the king of KingdomW.
About a week after the "incident",King Kenneth called forth his most trusted knight for diplomatic business to KingdomW. Apparently,Hara had asked for Tiyha to deal in the diplomatic affairs PERSONALLY. Because of his loyalty to the Kingdom of Wales,he obeyed his liege and set out on a quest for KingdomW
Once there,the knight after arrival,Tiyha was called into the queen' personal quarters...in which he found her lying on her bed in rather reveiling attire,putting forth "sexual inuendos" to the young knight. She even went as far as to attepmt to force herself onto him with a hungering kiss,however Tiyha removed the queen from his arms,which deeply offended the queen and she sent her guards to kill him...
Meanwhile,back in Wales,King Kenneth moved in like a hawk onto Lady Janie,putting forth "proof" that the king had not ordered him to go to KingdomW as Tiyha had said,but that he had done it to partake in an affair with Queen Hara. Janie was deeply angered by it,and the king took advantage,taking the young Janie in a wave of passion in his personal quarters
Tiyha was stuck in KingdomW for about 2 months,using all his whits and training to avoid the kingdom guards. During this period of time,he uncovered documents of an elaborate plan between Queen Hara and King Kenneth to lure Tiyha to KingdomW to have him killed and King Kenneth steal Janie from him!! After about 2 months,Tiyha was finally able to escape KingdomW by horseback
However,when he returned to Wales,he had learned that Janie and King Kenneth had wed and ruled over the entire kingdom!! This devastated Tiyha to the point where for the next week,he was seen in the pub and screaming drunken rage towards the king to the point that the guards of Wales threw him in the dungeon for treason. He was found guilty of this crme and exiled from Wales. While he was being dragged out of the castle to be thrown out of the kingdom,he bared witness to King Kenneth and a patially visibly pregnaunt Queen Janie in a deep and passionate embrace...
Left to wonder the vast open roads and fields with nowhere else to go,Tiyha stumbled upon the diary of the recently executed wizard Lazurus. Lazurus had found evidence of corruption towards King Kenneth and was then wanted dead or alive (preferably dead). ALSO in the diary was an enchantation to "free the soul". This spell would allow one to move FREELY from plain to plain,dimention to dimention,realm to realm. Desperately seeking revenge on King Kenneth,Tiyha chanted the enchantaion during a violent thunderstorm. However,there was a problem. The enchantment was meant for those of the wizard clan ONLY because they were already of the power,magic wise,to do it. However,Striders were not magical beings,so it over took Tiyha. During the process,Tiyha went through seperation anxiety and split into 3 different entities (the mind,body,and soul). Each entity ended up in different places in time...
OOC Character commentary:This is the base character that leads into all my other characters and explains why they are the way they are (and that is utterly EVIL). The backround story you just read is based on certain situations I have been involved in in real life (However,I changed some names and added some things of my own to better suit the story and make the whole situation more messed up and sickening,because thats EXACTLY how I felt and STILL feel about it to this day). Even the little things,like how old the character was when it happened,the name of the king (which King Kenneth McAlpine WAS an actual king during the Middle Ages,but was a Scottish one,not english and Kenneth was the actual names of one of the assholes involved in one of the situations I mentioned before),and the name Tiyha Velgma (which is actually my REAL name in Al Bhed for those of you who played Final Fantasy 10) simulated what really happened in my real life
Also,I have had the whole concept about The Striders in my head for a long time. They are kind of like a cross between The Jedi (Star Wars,with the sword skills) and The Ancients (Final Fantasy 7,with the abiliy to communicate and "be one" with the planet). Now,I realise that there IS an actual clan called "The Striders" in "The Lord of the Rings". For the record,I have NEVER read ANY of "The Lord of the Rings" books or seen ANY of the movies. I came up with an alternate version ALL in my head,and then people told me that the term "Strider" came from "Lord of the Rings". Go figure lol
