Mariu Adeni

Mariu Adeni (391-Present), General of Asshai, was a prominent figure in the War of Many Magics. He was one of the many soldiers who felt betrayed by the Council of Eminence 's surrender  to Achim.

Early life
Mariu was born in Asshai in 391 After the Doom. At a young age he joined the army. He would slowly climb the ranks.

Final Fraternal War
During the Final Fraternal War Mariu would see his first battle. During the war his bravery and the death of others would cause his rapid rise through the upper ranks.

War of Many Magics
A few months before the War of Many Magics Asshai's Sixth General died causing to be promoted up to one of Asshai's six generals. . Being the Sixth General he was naturally put incharge of the weakest army and given orders to go fight the peripheral campaign. Said campaign would be in the northern Shadow Lands at a fort along the Northern Shadow Road. There at the fort, Fort Mariu, he would gain his presitge. Upon the arrival of General Abasi and his the Achimans the Fort was assualted to dislodge Mariu and his Asshai'i. Through his superior knowledge of warcraft and use of the terrain Mariu would defeat this early attempt to take the fort by the superior Achimans. As a result Abasi would settle in for a siege.

After years of siege warfare Abasi planned to assault the fort again. Mairu however realized what Abasi intended to do and decided to pre-emptively strike. In the black of night Mariu attacked Abasi. Htting hard and fast Mariu was able to deal casualties before Abasi could regroup. Even with that surprise attack the Achimans still maintained numerical superioty. In his belief that victory could be his Mariu straight attacked the Achimans. This at first seemed like a terrible mistake, for the Achimans had halted the center while the Asshai'i flanks advanced further. And this might have been a terrible mistake too had not Abasi attempted to break the Asshai'i cneter and in the process be struck down. With the capture of their general the Achimans crumpled and Asshai won the battle.

The victory in the north would have no effect on the outcome of the war, because once again it was a peripheral campaign. Due to the success of the Achimans in the south Asshai surrendered. Soem of the terms involved the release of Abasi and his army as well as the turn over of Fort Mariu to Achim. These terms infuriated Mariu, however he understood that he would have to comply else Asshai be burnt asunder. He therefore complied.

Politcs
One of the many soldiers angered by the peace treaty he joined forces with the new marshal, Riko, to plot the overthrow of the weak and decadent Council.
