⸺  Biography

Early Life- Nikolaos Sarris was born on a distant isle to a loving family in Pelasgia, Athens. There, he was immersed in its culture and ways from childhood, often dreaming of adventure and Epics. He grew around theater, plays, politics, and debates, and thus has come to form an appreciation for the arts, though debates and politics still elude him. As he entered his teens, he adopted a more carefree, but honest attitude toward everything, often viewing hardships as trials from the Gods.Teenage Years- Though still young, Pelasgia entered a brutal war. Their neighbors to the southwest became more hostile, all while pirates raided their coasts. On top of that, tensions began to rise from their rivalry to the Northeast. As such, he was drafted into the military at a young age, having barely reached the age of thirteen. Starting out, his tasks were simple. Maintaining weapons, bringing troops their supplies, and training. However, the simple tasks would end there, for just a year later tensions boiled over. Now at fourteen, he joined the frontlines out of necessity. Still to frail to hold a hoplite formation and shield wall, he turned to archery, where his skills only improved.Adult Years- Years of war tormented the isle, plunging Pelasgia into darkness and constant strife. He still maintained his easy attitude, but was now honed by a brutal ten year war. Though he still used the bow, he gained strength enough during his trainings to join the formations, adopting the shield, sword, and spear. It was during this time, did he begin his earnest worship to Athena, and soared in battle tactics under the Goddess' guidance. Many stories were retold as the years came to a wane, stories of how she fought through him, and when he entered a certain mental state, his eyes would glow. Surely, just tales though.. after all, no man can truly be touched by Gods, right?

  Είναι η ανάμνηση που χαμογελώ. Για όσους έχω χάσει, για όσους γνωρίζω και για όσους δεν έχω γνωρίσει ακόμα.   "It is memory, that I smile. For those I have lost, those I know, and those I have yet to meet."  Ας μας φοβούνται! Ας μας βλέπουν να στεκόμαστε εδώ, χωρίς να φοβόμαστε τον θάνατο! Ας μας ακούν να βρυχόμαστε! Τείχος Ασπίδας!   "Let them fear us! Let them see us standing here, not afraid of death! Let them hear us roar! Shield Wall!"  Η αγάπη δεν είναι κάτι που μπορείς να την πουλήσεις. Πρέπει να την κερδίζεις, να την αγαπάς και να την καλλιεργείς. Ο καθένας μπορεί να πει ότι αγαπάει κάποιον άλλον, αλλά τα λόγια μπορεί να είναι κενά... μην το πεις. Δείξε τους.   "Love, is not something to be thrown around. It is to be earned, cherished, and nurtured. Anyone can say they love another, but words can be empty... do not say it. Show them."  Ένα ταξίδι μόνος είναι διαφωτιστικό. Ένα ταξίδι με έναν φίλο είναι ρομαντικό. Ένα ταξίδι με μια παρέα φίλων; Αυτό είναι αξέχαστο. Όλα αυτά πρέπει να τα θυμάσαι, από την αρχή... μέχρι το τέλος.   "A journey alone, is enlightening. A journey with a friend, is romantic. A journey with with a group of friends? That, is memorable. All of it, is to be cherished, from the beginning... to the end."
