History: Born and raised in Past, Ogdoad's parents were part of the aristocracy, his father an assistant to the queen in foreign and domestic affairs, his mother a first maid to her royal highness. Ogdoad was trained as an aristocrat, the arts of etiquette, social affairs, how to hold his head up high, as well as fencing, dancing, reading and even basic science, which his father taught him when his mother was away, and no eyes were prying. However, Ogdoad learned of his father had a hidden agenda to dethrone the queen and topple her tyranny over the Past. His father worked secretly, gathering resources, names and supporters, but was ultimately beheaded in the end, as a political martyr. The last time he talked to his mother was the night he was told to run to Lock, before the Queen's men came for her.
Lock was a strange land to Ogdoad, frightening at first, but he soon grew used to it, setting up a small shop in an abandoned garage in the downtown area, where he used all that he had learned to create medicine and potions many had never seen. He worked in that shop, making just enough to support himself for what seemed an eternity, before a fallen angel seemed to fall right in front of his doorstep. He learned she was Kauket, from Past as well. Finding her oddly like his father, Ogdoad, although embittered by his ages spent on Lock, put it aside, and allowed her to work with him in the shop, and even found she brought him some comfort and joy, even a bit more business.
Ogdoad, although righteous, has a dark past, but from within that darkness shines a bright light.
