People are quick to mock me and write me off as some old cook who doesn't know what he's talking about. I am certain the messages I receive will help people some day. I just want to help. — Ozax

Early Life
Ozax was born to a human mother and father and has lived in Shimmerwick his entire life. His mother raised him as a single parent after his father passed from cancer when he was only a year old. They lived in an older apartment building. Ozax was alone most of the time due to his mother working long hours.
To entertain himself, he was either reading a book or finding ways to spy on neighbors he deemed "suspicious". At some point, mystery stories and tales of conspiracies caught his attention. Ozax loved trying to find symbols and meanings in everything.
As a teenager Ozax learned of the
Luminous University and the potential certain magic could wield in his areas of interest. He applied and was accepted. Ozax only lasted a year due to his rising anxieties. Defeated, he opted to pursue writing as a backup.
I lived with my mother for quite some time while I figured things out. Neither of us minded; we helped each other in different ways. Thankfully I was able to land a spot rather quickly. Sure, the writing didn't bring in much, but I also handled the occasional odd job while also dealing with antiques and other collectibles. — Ozax
Tabloids and Beyond
Ozax managed to find his place writing articles for a website that covers a variety of topics related to oddities, conspiracies, and more. The owner loved his style and content. This publication has been his main career, even in his old age.
He is best known for his ravings about foretold events that may or may not happen. Most are bogus. Ozax still tries and cycles through different divination techniques in hopes of finding something that could eventually help others.
The Radio
In 912, Ozax acquired a peculiar
Radio from a traveling antique shop. Something about it called to him, so he took it home. He initially used it to listen to music while working late nights writing articles. Then a week later, something unusual happened.
Ozax noticed brief snippets of words and sentences interrupting his music. At first he dismissed it as standard radio interference. Within a few days the messages sounded rather ominous and not like any program he's listened to before.
He took this as a sign and now spends his free hours scanning frequencies for more messages. Ozax aims to use these to uncover dubious plots and warn people who may be affected by them.
