Filius comes from a small village in the central portion of Francia. He was born to peasants, and spent the early parts of his life in a farming area.

Filius was taken while young. He was identified by his odd looks (flame colored hair) and the proclivity for fires to start spontaneously around him. His parents were killed in one such fire. Flambeau found him soon after the event (fortunately for Filius), and began training him. Filius has only vague memories of his parents, and no real fondness (they were very afraid of him).

Filius was selected to aid the efforts of Calor Novus because of his power with fire and his natural leadership.

If push came to shove, Filius would be hard pressed to choose between duty to the Order and love of Francois. Likely he would come down on the side of duty, but he would be torn.

He is out actively seeking non-Hermetics avidly most seasons, spends little time in the lab, and has begun incursions into the Iberian peninsula. He is attempting to leave a trail of ash behind him, making no discrimination between the guilty and the innocent.

In the summer of 808, Filius fell ill (from old wounds), Inrisor had returned, and he b
