	'''Atury''' was a [[Draol]] ~~mage~~ who lived during the time of the [[Great Purge]]. He sought to escape the Purge by opening a [[Keldra Gateway]], which erroneously transported himself, his throng of minions, a contingency of the [[Gruenish]] Army, which also had soldiers from the [[Aerylothian]] Army, to the world of [[Errod]]. He was one of the few remaining spellcasters left on [[Galwyndor]] at the time.		'''Atury''' was a [[Draol Mage]] who lived during the time of the [[Great Purge]].

	At the age of 12, he became aware of the [[Academy of Runes]], and he bided his time until the circus brought him to the city of [[Khundur-Dal]] in [[Maldenon]]. Whilst there, he send a letter to the headmaster, a dwarf named [[Iliva]], petitioning her for acceptance into their academy. He told of his experiments with [[inculcation]], specifically of the device he had contrived to enable him to understand speech. Their response was favorable, and they sent for him to present his device to the headmaster for demonstration. They accepted him on the condition that he cease his experiments and his creation of "unsanctioned runes." The headmaster herself got him released from his contract with the circus, and Atury would spend the next two years learning at the academy.

	Thus, Atury began as ~~pupil of the~~ [[Runesworn]] ~~school of magic~~, as he was deaf, which made rune work the most favorable of all the disciplines of [[magic]]. He was ultimately expelled, however, after being turned in by a classmate for continuing to create his own runes in secret, which were not part of the traditional symbols. He had invented a new written language to accompany the traditional glyphs, and used this language to encrypt all his notes. This he did as an homage to his mother and sister, who had created their own communication language when he was a child. Since the language was known only to him, any reference to it refers to it as [[Aturian]].

	A man named [[Bluthor]], who had also heard of the boy's talent, came and offered Atury's father a deposit of 40 gildan for the boy to accompany the [[Circus Nomadia Supernal]]. Bluthor had promised that Atury would simply continue doing what he had already done, and that a handsome wage could be sent back to the family monthly. Roris Trumsole accepted, and Atury left to join the circus. He was not, however, put to use as had been explained, but rather he became a sort of sideshow attraction. He was given the name ''Hummingbird'' because of how he would try to communicate with his hands, and they taught him to mime. The attraction was called ''The Humming Dummy''; he would first entertain onlookers with a mime show, and then he would perform minor healing acts, which the carnival would charge "ten gillies" apiece for. The healing, because it was minimal, was often exaggerated as miracles, and other circus performers would user subterfuge and trickery to make people think that more had been done.

	He was ultimately miserable in circus life, however. He missed his mother and sister, and because of his general distrust of men, he grew fond of one of the other performers, a woman named [[Desalia]]. She was a fortune teller, and she became a sort of surrogate mother to him. She helped him learn to read lips and taught him of other ways he might be able to one day use his magical abilities. Over the next four years, she also taught him to read and write. During this time, he performed small experiments for himself involving the use of magical totems that he made for himself for different minor purposes. The one he put to the most use, however, was his "hearing rune." Using the skills he had learned from his father's workshop, he fashioned a metal rune of his own creation, which he imbued with the ability to increase vibration from people's speech. He could direct its focus onto any person in his vicinity, and using the lip reading skills he had honed with the help of Desalia, he became adept at interpreting the rune's vibrations. In this way, he could "read lips" of anyone without even looking at them. This device would ultimately be what set him apart from other potential candidates at the [[Runesworn]] school, and they would grant him admittance due to his clear tenacity.

	A man named [[Bluthor]], who had also heard of the boy's talent, came and offered Atury's father a deposit of 40 gildan for the boy to accompany the [[Circus Nomadia Supernal]]. Bluthor had promised that Atury would simply continue doing what he had already done, and that a handsome wage could be sent back to the family monthly. Roris Trumsole accepted, and Atury left to join the circus. He was not, however, put to use as had been explained, but rather he became a sort of sideshow attraction. He was given the name ''Hummingbird'' because of how he would try to communicate with his hands, and they taught him to mime. The attraction was called ''The Humming Dummy''; he would first entertain onlookers with a mime show, and then he would perform minor healing acts, which the carnival would charge "ten gillies" apiece for. The healing, because it was minimal, was often exaggerated as miracles, and other circus performers would user subterfuge and trickery to make people think that more had been done.
