Kerkitan
Kerkitan is a very powerfull mage during the end of the long peace. After the Splintering of the Land takes part in the spells to anchor the freely drifting islands to the bottom of the sea.
Beeing at that time still a young and excitable mage, he is on one of the first ships to set sail back to the mainland. He there fought the attacking demons valiantly and by his great power a number of fights are won. After successfully fighting of the first onslaught he begins to travel with a small band of reckless fighters and by his supremacy he quickly becomes their leader. The ambush demons wherever they find them and come other defenders to aid. Soon each of their names become legend but above all of them the name of their leader and they are called the Kerkitae.
After the war is ended however their names suddenly come second to the immortal spirits, that came down from the skies and Kerkitan beginns to envy them, secretly believing they donot deserve that honour. When in the first after war councils the mages are accused of deserting the other mortal races in their need, Kerkitae leaves the mainland in anger.
Back in his homeland he secretly beginns to work new magic to change the protective spells cast around the islands. For in his anger he decided that if the other mortal races do not appreciate the mages help, they shall live without it.
After years of secret labouring he succeeded. Now any mage sailing to the mainland and entering as far inland as to not feel the seabreeze anymore will fall under the same spell as any other beeing and never be able to find the isles of the mages ever again.
When his deeds become known, the elders try to make him undo the magic, but he refuses. Neither could he, even if he had wished so. For the magic he did had cost him almost all his power and he died few years later.
