History: Born from the Divine Essence with the other first generation Gods, Aruuk quickly took a shine to his position as God of the Sun. Though he soon realized that his position made him rather lonely, as his important duties often kept him from spending too much free time...and on top of that, it wasn't often that any of the other gods visited him. For hundreds upon thousands of years, Aruuk managed his duties in almost complete solitude...only mingling with the other gods a few times a year, while Owik and Kalu visited him a few additional times to "make certain that he was in good health, and in a good state of mind". These few interactions managed to sate Aruuk's appetite for socialization enough that he was not driven mad by the solitary nature of his work, and it was not until Eragn's betrayal that things began to get more lively for the Sun God. Aruuk participated in the war to fight Eragn, fighting fire with fire...but, in the end, Aruuk just became another suspect for betrayal. Owik and Kalu increased the frequency of their visits, careful not to raise Aruuk's suspicion towards their true intentions...but the Sun God already knew, and didn't mind. All that really mattered to him was that he could socialize so much more than before, and wouldn't be as lonely. Eventually, when the second generation of gods came into existence, after Isaera was created and bound to Eragn, the Goddess of Fire and Rebirth would often spend her free time conversing with Aruuk...and not too long afterwards, the Goddess Kiwo, an alternate of Owik that traveled to this dimension from another, began to pay him regular visits as well, disguising herself as a simple Demigod. Eventually Kiwo betrayed his trust, and set a trap to capture the Sun God and send him back to her dimension; where his light would be drained by the dark gods such as "Anti-Srah" and even his own alternate self. The Vekta of his home dimension was plunged into absolute darkness, while many of his fellow gods began to panic. Owik and Kalu, however, were some of the few who knew what was happening; and so they developed a plan. Owik then confronted Kiwo, challenging her to a duel...all the while trying to convince her to help, doubling as a distraction to keep her from realizing their plans. Meanwhile, as Owik kept Kiwo occupied, Kalu located Aruuk and started formulating a plan to free him from his bindings. A grueling, month-long battle broke out once Kalu was discovered by the "anti-gods, and before long the King of the Gods was struggling to defend Aruuk...much less himself. Drained of so much energy, Aruuk could only watch as the tides of battle slowly began to turn...as Kalu began to lose...and all the hope that Aruuk had been holding tightly onto for that entire month began to fade rapidly. That is, until Kiwo appeared beside him and set the Sun God free. Owik then appeared to aid Kalu in battle, bringing Srah with him as reinforcements. Kiwo restored Aruuk's power to him, and so the Sun God joined the fight; and with their combined might, they held the hostile gods at bay and granted Owik, Kiwo, and Srah enough time to safely transport everyone back home safely. Ever since that incident, Aruuk has come to appreciate having some time to himself.
