Biography
It is unknown what Namrask's original name was on Riis, only that he commanded multiple ships to abandon their homeworld to pursue the Traveler during the Whirlwind. By the time of the Eliksni attack on London, he had changed his name to Akileuks, a reference to the human mythological figure "Achilles", who was both an athlete and a warrior. As Akileuks, he gave the order to sack London, burning it to the ground and killing all the humans who couldn't flee fast enough.
Later, he served as a warrior on the Reef for some period, and was part of the group who betrayed Mara Sov, for which was thrown into prison by Variks himself. Some time after Uldren's prison break, he fled to Europa to New Riis.
By this point, Akileuks had tired of warfare, wishing only to become a weaver. Seeing the huge Eliksni who claimed to be a simple weaver, the other Eliksni gave him the name Namarsk, which means "Empty Weaver". [1] He lived in New Riis for quite some time, becoming a respected member of the group and starting a family, before Eramis began raising her army with the power of Darkness. Having seen the calamities which the Darkness had brought to the Eliksni before, he went to Variks and pleaded for a way out. Variks refused to help the former criminal, but told him of Mithrax, the kell of the new House or Light.
In the Vanguard assault on Riis Reborn, Namrask fled with the rest of his new family, but they were pursued by guardians. Thinking quickly, he had his group fire their guns at the ice to create a cloud of steam, then donned scattercloth to cloak himself and lead the group away. He would've died there, if another member of his ketch hadn't sacrificed himself by firing upon the guardians to draw them away. [2]
