Academis Nostalga is an old intelligent bookworm. He is seen by some to be a crazy old hermit babbling about demons. To some he is a scholar. Played by Jess in the Ur campaign.
History
Academis showed up in Talathese shortly after the raid of Branok the warlord and collected a group of heroes to strike back at the half-ogre menace and his troops.
Background
Academis was a into archeology as a young lad through his late teens at which point a specialist he was working with on a dig site noticed his magery. Into his late twenties Acadamis worked with this man and his cohorts, who taught Acadamis dark necromantic arts as they persued ancient artifacts of power. This was a cult that is now an enemy of Acadamis, as he's no longer a member, but he holds some of thier secrets.
The event that allowed Academis to flee the evil cult and pursue a straigher brighter path was a bit unfortunate. He was working with some other initiate cultists summoning some minor demons. The demons were being summoned to be forced into helping decipher ancient runes on the door of an ancient crypt. Unfortunately, something went wrong and a greater demon was summoned and the cultists were unable to control or banish it. The demon, Thamuz, destroyed the entire dig site and all workers except one. Academis through some dumb luck and arcane tricks slipped the demon, Thamuz's grasp and has as of yet been doing so.
After his lucky escape, Academis spent a few years drifting from dig site to dig site doing what he could to help and to survive, all the while hoping to not get caught by either the necromantic cult, known as the Black Ether, or the demon who was quite angry at Academis' escape.
Through one of these jobs, Academis learned of a series of artifacts, called the Akhadian pieces, or Armor of Akhad. Through some further research of these pieces, he learned of a guild of historians, mages and spies known as the Emerald Emir. Academis became involved with this group after doing years of research on them and on Akhad at the reknowned Library of Leng. Somehow his research tipped an ear and the Emerald Emirs contacted him as his research helped them with thier duties. He eventually was inducted into the Emeral Emirs and now works with them to keep the red hand of Akhad down, which has thus led him to Talathese
