Tarikkk Nasneed

Tarikkk Marcus Nasneed (7th century BE - 666 BE) was an ancient Negus Murian child trained diplomat, employed by the Bysandines. He was later killed in 666 BE. He is considered to have been the catalyst in a long standing feud which ultimately kick started the Bysandine-Solician War.

Life
Tarikkk was chosen at the age of five to become a serving Bysandine diplomat to aid their decaying relations with the Negromurians. According to the historical epic, Ambrosian Nights, written by a descendant of Emplemon, Tarikkk was known in his village for being born with ginger hair and even freckles. He was able to read and write fluently in Sandesian, various Negusmurien dialects, and Classical Spawnic at the age of seven, all through intensive study and being exceptionally gifted in language comprehension. He later learned Old Solician and Copish at the age of nine.

In one excerpt, he is reported to have stopped a conflict between two Japanese settlements on a vacation to Japan. He had done so by setting the two chiefs up on a blind date with one another, each becoming friends and agreeing upon a deal by the end of the night. This was all while Tarikkk was at the age of ten, having recently become fluent in Japanese a week prior, while he was on the way to the eastern lands.

He played a role in settling disputes and even spying for the Bysandines, though keeping loyal to Negus Murien, subtly benefiting his homeland in treaties and deals made across the known Realm. By the age of twelve, Tarikkk worked full time as an official for Bysandine foreign relations, owning and living in one of the first known embassies in Realm history, having come up with the idea himself. The embassy was in the heart of the Spawn Empire, quickly becoming a center of diplomacy in Realm. A school for philosophy and the art of diplomacy was opened personally by Tarikkk and much collaboration from his colleagues. In his free time, Tarikkk gave lectures in the school. It would later be regarded as the first formal educational institution on the Realm.

In 666 BE, when Tarikkk was 14, a marauding band of Solicians broke into Tarikkk's living quarters, despite his many guards. As they broke in, Tarikkk simply said, "Do not disturb my charts." Tarikkk had been sitting on a wooden chair when one Solician started to beat Tarikkk. The Solician put his knee on Tarikkk's neck for approximately nine minutes, kneeling on it until his death. Shortly after, Bysandine guards finally noticed the break-in and slaughtered the group as they tried to escape with goods including papyrus containing the finances of the School

Tarikkk's death was mourned by thousands in the field of diplomacy, many saying he had passed far too soon. All this and the earlier incident of a meteor striking Fort FUCK CSAGO culminated in a large conflict between the Bysandines and the Holy Nation that claimed thousands of lives.
