History
Bruska is one of the Ilma, and has been bestowed the gift by Gadrika. Like most Ilma, he can control all the elements but his greatest power over water. In his lifetime he even bested some of the Therailma in his control of it.
Bruska carries the height of the ilma but he is not broad or overly strong. He has a small head, broad nose and a face covered in dot like red scales.
History
Bruska was born to a wealthy Ilma merchant family. Due to lack of Ilma compared to Graul and the emergence of small settlements requiring lordships, Ilma could pay for their children to squire, in the hopes that they would become Lords upon completing their years of service. This would allow poor Ilma families to move up in the world. Merchant helpers, becoming merchants, becoming lords, keeping the Ilma in power.
Bruska was the third child to become a squire, due to their fathers most recent fortune.
The Battle of the Crossroads.
Bruska would become squire to Selosa Aquitex, a great warrior and general for the land of Cradlin. During their first week together, Bruska and Selosa spotted the invading armies of Aginor sailing towards Cradlin. Together they rode back to Cradlin and marched with the army to meet the soldiers of Krunmelkin at the Crossroads.
During the battle Bruska was dismounted and fought valiantly. He defended Selosa and rallied a last march as the armies of Lianosuta arrived to aid. During the battle, Bruska’s brother was killed and as a gift of friendship, his brothers helmet was gifted to him. Bruska would be welcomed the council of the lords to debate the fate of Aginor.
During this debate, Bruska was called to speak and it was his mercy that allowed Aginor to escape execution. Bruska would return to Selosa’s service but it would not be one of peace.
The siege of Cradlin
Bruska and Selosa would move to the fought of Melkamorasuta on the coast. During autumn a vicious blizzard would blow in and once it had cleared, warning bells sounded throughout the town.
Bruska was one of the first to arrive at the High Lord of Cradlin’s caravan as the wounded man collapsed into the snow. Bruska was present when the Lord recounted the attack of the Therailma on Cradlin and the attack on his family.
Bruska accompanied the warrior Ilma as they infiltrated the city of Cradlin. During the assault, Bruska used his power over water to separate the wave that surrounded the two towers, allowing the Ilma entry. Then, using his aura, he broke the power of the Therailma, saving the trapped ilma inside. Leading the assault up the tower, Bruska saved the Lord’s daughter and then escorted her safely to Melkamorasuta.
The Burning of Fasurasuta
When the Lord sort his vengeance upon the Therailma, Bruska went with Selosa to the walls of Fasurasuta, the haven of the Therailma. Bruska could do nothing as the ilma of Cradlin launched a great wall of fire, that devoured the city. After the battle had ended, Bruska walked the blackened streets and vowed never to allow such things to happen again.
In the aftermath Bruska was raised to lordship and married the Lord of Cradlin’s daughter. Selosa went off as an envoy to Krunmelkin and Bruska became lord of Tukanita.
The Battle of Tukanita
Two years after the siege of Cradlin, Bruska welcomed the lord of Carano to his town. News had come, that Aginor once again sort to take the lands east of the sea. Bruska grew concerned when his scouts began to go missing. Soon a great host of Krunmelkin emerged from the nearby woods and marched towards Tukanita.
Bruska rallied the defence but as the town was about to fall he rode out in a last desperate charge. He was attacked by Aginor himself, sustaining a broken leg. With the help of the lord of Carano, he was able to defeat the invading king. Surrounded, it soon seemed that he would be cut down but Selosa arrived with an army of the Krunilma.
In the aftermath of the battle, Bruska gave leave for the Krunilma to settle in the western woods. Selosa remained as part of Bruska’s retinue. When some Therailma came, requesting leave to travel to Tukakrun and then to the great continent, Bruska allowed it and gave them provisions. Selosa would go with them and he would hear no more until the leader of the Therailma returned, bringing news of Selosa’s death.
