VILOFTIRAS VALJEAN
107 years old
04/05/1038

Viloftiras was born in the city in the north as the son of a nobleman who hated him because his mother was a poor woman who had used a love potion to seduce him into marrying her. Viloftiras’ mother was very ill while pregnant with him and she died moments after he was born, just barely long enough to name him. Since his mother was no longer around to dose his father with the potion, the effects wore off a month later. His father was furious when he realized what happened and Viloftiras was a reminder of his mistake, but he did not have the resolve to abandon him. His father treated him almost like a servant, but Viloftiras never complained, because if he finished his chores quickly and efficiently his father would teach him spells. Through these lessons, Viloftiras became rather skilled in magic even though he never got to attend formal school in his youth. He moved to the capital of Wiz and eventually became a Protector.

After years of working as a protector, Viloftiras felt unsatisfied about the path he was taking in life and quit. Viloftiras returned to his hometown and started an orphanage using the funds he earned as a protector, because he realized that if his father was not around he would have had to grow up in the streets. And to Viloftiras’ surprise his father, who had apparently become kinder while he was away in the main city, volunteered to help. They ran the orphanage together for a few years, but it quickly filled up because so many children were left on the streets. Some children with parents were simply abandoned due to poverty and given to the orphanage because they had become too much of a burden on the family. It broke his heart, but he had to turn away some children after awhile. Because of this, a wizard whose child was turned away by Viloftiras got angry and set fire to the orphanage one night when Viloftiras was out of town. The wizard was untrained, but surprisingly powerful, and used magic to trap all of the orphans and Viloftiras' father inside. Every inhabitant perished when Viloftiras returned, he was distraught when he figured out what happened. However, he knew the Wizard Council would not respond to the deaths of a few peasant orphans, but by reporting the death of a noble by a powerful and dangerous wizard, he was able to get the council to respond. The wizard was executed for being responsible for murdering a noble and destroying the property of Viloftiras. Since he no longer had the orphanage to run, and did not want to think of rebuilding one anymore, he decided to become a member of the Wizard Council to try to pass some laws that would help the poor.

To his relief, Viloftiras managed to join, but unknown to him the loyalty potion caused him to forgot his initial intentions of passing laws to help the poor children. Instead, he became more concerned with passing laws that would end up helping the rich, though he still focused on helping children since he has a soft spot for them. His new mentality has him focused on making sure children of the rich are protected, since they are obviously more important than poor children.
