Kashj'ir grew up in a small village near Whitesong City. As a child, he always enjoyed playing with a wooden shield and sword and imagined himself serving in the ranks of the soldiers of the Sacred Order. His love of dragons was no secret, but many children laughed at him for it, saying that he was a weirdo and that there were no dragons, that the stories were only told by the parents so that the children would behave and go to bed at night.
Kashj'ir was sad and angry at the same time and immediately ran home and scolded his parents. He continued: "I HATE YOU! You've been lying to me all this time, there are no dragons at all." The parents apologized and comforted Kashj'ir.
A few years later, at the age of 14, Kashj'ir came into contact with Talorogh. Talorogh was a bandit from the elven tribe, the tribe was led by his father. There, Kashj'ir learned how to use a bow and arrow as well as daggers. It was the first time that Kashj'ir held real weapons in his hands, he was fascinated by the elves' craft. Every time he swung the blades, he had this fire in his eyes. Talorogh suggested to his father that he teach Kashj'ir how to fight, he was not very pleased that a human was being trained by elves. After much persuasion, Talorogh's father relented and the elves accepted Kashj'ir as a budding assassin.
Talorogh's father was impressed by Kashj'ir. He was a fast learner for a human, improving over time and even defeating many elves in training battles. Kashj'ir became a master of the bow and arrow, as well as the double-bladed fighting style.
One morning, the bandits went hunting together and were attacked by a bear. Kashj'r didn't hesitate for a second and charged at the animal like a wild-eyed berserker, stabbing it until its guts were hanging out. The bandits had never seen anything like it.
Two years later, Kashj'ir was fully accepted into the elven tribe and even rose to become Groom's bodyguard. Groom is the father of Talorogh.
They planned an attack, a raid to steal as much loot as possible. Kashj'ir was to lead the attack together with Talorogh.
They planned the raid for 5 days. But Kashj'ir realized that something was wrong. Kashj'ir knew that the route they had spied out led to a small village, the village where he grew up and where his parents lived.
On the day of the raid, everyone was there except Kashj'ir. Everyone waited but Kashj'ir didn't show up. When they were ready to leave without him, Kashj'ir came rushing in and warned that soldiers were on their way to the bandits' camp. The whole tribe of elves set off and searched in vain for the soldiers. Every single elf died that day at the hands of Kashj'ir.
Kashj'ir managed to distract the elves and spread panic so that coordination and communication were no longer possible. Kashj'ir worked with smoke bombs, shadow images and other special techniques he had learned from the elves. It was a sneaky assassination. A retaliatory strike because they wanted to attack the village where Kashj'ir's parents lived.
In the end, only Talorogh and Groom were left. Kashj'ir fought both of them at the same time. It was a relentless battle, but Kashj'ir fought with a brutality like no other before him. He managed to decapitate both of them. Kashj'ir went back to the elven camp and murdered the remaining elves, even women and children. He impaled the heads of Talorogh and Gromm on a wooden stake and placed them next to Groom's throne.
As a young adult-to-be, Kashj'ir finally joined the Sacred Order and took an oath. He defended the territory of the humans with pride and honor. They defended the territory a few times and also attacked themselves.
One day they were patrolling in the forest and encountered the Domination, they immediately put up a fight, but Kashj'ir refused. He said to the soldiers: "I won't fight, I'm tired of spilling blood all the time. I have no problems living in peace with the Domination, only our leader has that.
The Domination simply attacked without a word. Kashj'ir was forced to fight back and the soldiers killed the soldiers of the Domination. One soldier tried to flee, but a soldier of the Sacred Order was after him with a spear that seriously injured him. Without hesitation, Kashj'ir killed the friendly soldiers.
Kashj'ir rushed to the orc's aid and used a flask of eternal life. A kind of water he got from his stay with the elves.
The water instantly healed all wounds. The orc thanked Kashj'ir and suggested that he come with him. So Kashj'ir deserted and entered Domination territory for the first time.
Ingrimm wanted to have Kashj'ir beheaded immediately because he had the disrespect to enter the Domination's territory. The Orc explained that he had saved his life and killed his own soldiers. Ingrimm allowed Kashj'ir to stay until sunrise.
Kashj'ir quickly realized that the Sacred Order lied about what they told about the Domination. Kashj'ir asked Ingrimm to join the Domination. Kashj'ir revealed the Sacred Order's next targets, Ingrimm said that if this was true, he could stay for a long time. In fact, the Sacred Order tried to attack exactly those targets named by Kashj'ir, thus showing loyalty to Ingrimm. Thanks to Kashj'ir, they were able to repel the attack.
Kashj'ir had now been with the Domination for several years, performing tasks for Ingrimm. Kashj'ir was impressed by the shamans of the Domination and learned to control the elements. Kashj'ir really wanted to control the air. The shamans told him that was not possible. They did not have the power to control the air. Instead, they could teach him other elements. Over the next few years, Kashj'ir specialized in the element "earth".
However, Kashj'ir was obsessed with being able to control the air and so he became more and more involved with elemental magic. Kashj'ir was already able to create earthquakes, make stones fly, make spikes come out of the ground, turn his whole body into stone and make whole limbs made of stone come out of the ground. The element "earth" was not common for shamans. Most shamans prefer lightning and fire. Kashj'ir is probably one of the most powerful users of the element earth.
One day, for some inexplicable reason, Kashj'ir managed to manipulate the air so that he could use it for himself.Kashj'ir trained as he did every day, but something was different. He shot his earth projectiles at such a speed that they could destroy entire houses. Kashj'ir couldn't explain it and went to see the oldest shamans of Aragon.
The elders said it was impossible. Since Kashj'ir has completely focused on one element and has mastered it so perfectly and earth is a natural element and not like ice, water and fire, it could be that Kashj'ir could also control/manipulate air. The elders were keen to test this because it is not possible. The shamans attacked Kashj'ir and he was supposed to defend himself and then it happened. Kashj'ir stretched his hand forward and unleashed such a violent gust of wind that everything in front of him was destroyed and all the bones in the elder's body were immediately broken.
Kashj'ir knew from that moment on that he had a special power that made him almost invincible. Over time, Kashj'ir learned more and more how to use the element, Kashj'ir's body had become a single weapon.
No element could harm him, as he can defend himself with the elements of air, fire, earth and water. He is even able to split water and fire down the middle. Kashj'ir specializes in weaponless close combat and the power of the elements. By mastering the element of air, each of his weaponless attacks is worse than any weapon.
Kashj'ir disappeared one day and from then on lived on a hidden island. There he continued to train diligently. The island was surrounded by a wall of wind and no one could get through.
Kashj'ir was well-disposed towards the Domination and continued to support it. He no longer had any contact with the Sacred Order, but was neutral towards them.
One day, Kashj'ir was gliding through the skies above his island and noticed a very loud roar. He saw a huge shadow in the clouds and immediately flew back to the island. Kashj'ir could not believe what he saw, it was a dragon, a living dragon. However, the dragon attacked the island. Kashj'ir was not afraid of the dragon and fought it, but he still knew that he was fighting Shaargath, the most dangerous primeval dragon that ever lived.
The fight went on for several hours, with no end in sight. Neither Shaargath nor Kashj'ir landed a hit. Even Shaargath had never seen anyone fend off all his attacks without any problems. Shaargath couldn't believe that someone could manipulate the element of air in such a way that the Black Flame couldn't even get through the wind wall. Shaargath saw the potential of Kashj'ir and finally let go of him.
The next day, Shaargath returned to the island. Kashj'ir did not attack him and was puzzled why the dragon came back. Shaargath said to him: "I hear no heartbeat, I feel no fear" Who are you?
Kashj'ir only said: "You would have killed me at the first opportunity if you could have, so why are you here"
Shaargath said, "Do you realize what you and I could do together? The Black Flame and your ability to control the air? We could destroy all of Aragon and create it to our will."
Kashj'ir strove for power and knew that Shaargath would not go unnoticed in this endeavor. Kashj'ir had long since moved on from normal magic to dark magic. Kashj'ir offered to share his heart with Shaargath and split the souls. Only then would Shaargath and Kashj'ir be immortal and Kashj'ir and Shaargath would be one person.
Shaargath agreed, so they prepared the soul ritual and Kashj'ir sealed Shaargath in his body. Kashj'ir is now connected to a dragon soul and has 4 hearts. Kashj'ir can release Shaargath at any time or transform himself into Shaargath. Kashj'ir is now a kind of primeval god.
Together with Shaargath, Kashj'ir founded a legionary army known by the code name "Cult of the Iron Dragon".
