Parthonius Auriga

Parthonius Auriga (Parth) is one of the central protagonists of The Veruthyse Chronicles and the best friend of Niika Serrows, Adventas Lamient and Thassia Dey. Parth is an orphan due to Nazologia's new Lich's, due to this fact he became in a Lich-Hunting partnership with Niika Serrows and later on: Adventas, Thassia and Rijks. Parth was also a big part in combating Nazologia's Phase II.

Appearance
Parthonius has long, ash-black, straight thigh-length hair that slightly overshadows his pale skin. He can sometimes be mistaken for a female due to his feminine features portrayed upon his face. He is slightly shorter than Adventas, Thassia and Niika and wears slightly baggy casual clothes. Parth's fringe has many strips that fall down over his forehead, almost hiding his eyebrows.

Personality
Parthonius is an extremely intelligent individual whom even managed to track the Lich back to their source. He also has a knack for deciphering peoples true natures and intentions, which can sometimes makes him unlikeable. This is also expressed as he holds seldom regards for the feelings of others and can often end up hurting those around him due to his direct attitude. When he is introduced, Parthonius seems to be quite vian and cold, yet is soft/kind whenever he's caught off-guard.

He is quite disclosed about his feelings however, keeping most things to himself. Parth's got a shut-in view of life, which makes him a slightly mysterious figure. He is very wary around new-people and often shows them his colder side, even though he is kind at heart. Due to his past, Parth has a difficult time when trying to bond with others.

Background
Parthonius was born in the village of Laymond to Harold and Menzie Auriga. Around the age of fourteen, Parthonius was frustrated by the fact that nobody in the village/surroundings was on the same level of intelligence as him. The villagers began to detest him for his constant phobia of being imperfect and all hated to be around him, subjecting him to a lonely path. When he was still fourteen, Parthonius's village was raided and destroyed by Nazologia's new Lich type. Parthonius was one of the only nine survivors, his parents were not among them. Most of the others fled to Getropolis or Delta, but Parth headed straight into Snatchers Woods where he lived in trees, eating off fruits and animals that he found in his travels.

One day however, he saw a Felinria girl running from a pack of wild Lich. Parth let down some thick vines and hauled her up into the tree. The Felinria introduced herself as Niika Serrows, one who's village had also been destroyed by Nazologia's new Lich. Parthonius shared his own story with her aswell, ashamed about himself. Niika accepted him however and suggested that they start to build a hideout. They built a two-part tree village near the middle of Snatcher's Woods where they would begin to hunt Lich. While Niika did the actual hunting, Parthonius did the mapping and notes, making him even happier. Parth's phobia of being imperfect increased immensely since his village was burned, though Adventas, Thassia and Niika helped him cope.
