From the fathomless silence between stars, where creation itself forgets its own name, came Archmugus Aldus out of the Void—a being woven of paradox and purpose. He was not born; he emerged, stepping through the rift where thought first took form. In his hand he carried the Crimson Elixir, a vial of condensed genesis, swirling with the essence of creation and ruin alike.
Aldus was both sage and storm. In the citadel of Aethyros he was revered as the Keeper of Balance, shaping stars and souls alike through his alchemical mastery. With his black onyx wolf, Nyxveil, whose eyes shimmered with voidlight, he guarded the realms from the entropy beyond the veil. Together they quelled cosmic beasts, healed broken worlds, and restored minds shattered by forbidden knowledge.
But every creation casts a shadow. In time, Aldus grew consumed by the revelation that the same elixir that birthed life could unbind it. The Crimson Elixir whispered to him—each droplet pulsing with the will of the void that once held him. He began to test its power, not to destroy, but to understand the price of existence. Empires crumbled beneath his “experiments of transcendence,” and whispers called him the Red Alchemist of the Void.
Yet Aldus’s villainy was never born of malice—it was the devotion of one who saw too far, who loved the truth more than the light. Even as worlds cursed his name, he wept for the beauty of what he destroyed, knowing that without darkness, no creation could endure.
Now, legends say that Archmugus Aldus wanders between realities, neither savior nor tyrant, with Nyxveil ever at his side. When the stars tremble, some claim to see a crimson gleam in the void—a warning that the Archmugus still brews the fate of gods in his glass.
