Dumystor

Background and History: Prince and first in line to the throne of Neidra, a small conservative nation in a non-adventured part of Telenet, Dumystor one day found himself in a small boat with a most unlikely companion –  Rugor the Part-Orc; these two teleported by accident to an underground lake on Dafan and here immediately met and joined their first adventuring party.  Things did not go well here.  Before long, Dumystor's virtue was taken against his will by a fellow party member [who swears that it was with mutual consent!], whom he slew a few days later.  His party tried and executed him on the spot for this, and he was left in a shallow grave.

A few years later, a mission including Amaco came to Dafan to find Dumystor and bring him home.  Eventually, they learned what had become of him, and found his grave; but he failed resurrection.  After yet more efforts to undo the reason for this failure, Dumystor was revived and taken – via a long and circuitous route – back to Neidra.  But he didn't stay there for long…

A year or so later, he inadvertently teleported off-world again, this time to a dark unknown realm where he met and fell in with some characters from Hobbitika; and when they found a way out of this realm he went with them.  Not knowing who these people were or where he was, and knowing his real name carried a sour reputation on Dafan, he took on the name Arand Storm and set about building a second adventuring career.  This one proved more successful, despite a string of memorable blunders, and before long he realized he was not on Dafan and reverted to his real name.

Finally, he ran afoul of a minion of the goddess Luthien, who sent him back to Telenet in a fit of spite; he remains there still, fated to someday become an unpopular king due to his grudging acceptance (and sometimes blatant use) of magic in a magic-despising realm.
