Background
Esenius grew up in a small farming village in the southeast of creation, part of no kingdom the small village was left to fend for itself. It was a quiet and humble town that had been forgotten by all but the most traveled of adventures and cartographers, that is until Esenius exalted. Esenius did not know what a solar exalt was, but unfortunately for him the Wyld Hunt had discovered his location and was sent to dispatch of the recently exalted boy. Still a young teenager who was not trained in combat and unaware of what powers he now possessed he was unable to protect his village from the ruthless Wyld Hunt.
Either by luck or fate Esenius and his village would be saved from the Wyld Hunt that day; a traveling group of thieves, led by a trio of solar exalted, had spotted and followed the Wyld Huntsmen to the small village. Unable to watch the innocent people of the village be killed by their Dragon-Blooded rivals, and perhaps seeing an opportunity for self gain, the solars led their band of thieves against the Wyld Hunt and destroyed them. Overwhelmed but saved Esenius was convinced to join up with the thieves or he could expect the Wyld Hunt would return to destroy him and his village, and that is only the begining.

Personality
Esenius' personally was greatly sculpted by the events of the Zerund chronicle, beginning the story as a boy still in adolescence who had just exalted to a tired and conflicted war hero. When Esenius left his village with a group of bandits he was still naive and untouched by the harshness of the world, it was by traveling with Seth and Eden that Esenius learned the hardships of the world. What they showed him left him rattled and he was unsure how to combat what his eyes had been opened to, only starting to grow familiar with the power granted to him. It was then that Eric entered Esenius' life, he served as a mentor to him and taught him that he was not helpless against the atrocities of the world. Eric taught him valor and honor, to live by the code of the warrior, through Eric's tutelage Esenius was armed physically and mentally to confront the world's greatest conflicts.
Esenius was the proud leader of a great celestial army, hardened by war and death yet he was not prepared for what would come. His army was defeated, followers and friends alike killed by the treacherous Dragon-Blooded host. Though much had been sacrificed Esneius had accomplished his goal, the terrible General Cyrus had been defeated, the Zerund conflict had been resolved. Now alone, yet the hero of creation, Esenius did not see a place for himself in the world. Without companions he secluded himself into a lonely life in the village he had once called home, becoming a recluse as he doubted every action he had taken.
Then, just has it had reared its head before the terrible Zerund conflict seemed to be reemerging. Esenius was torn by duty to resolve the conflict he thought he had years ago and still haunted by the ghosts of the past conflict, now unsure if the crazed General Cyrus had been crazy at all.
