Lumen grew up in the port town of Hightower. His father a merchant and his mother a teacher at the local bard college. They put him through tutoring and visited the bard college often with his mother to her lessons. Often being left to his own devices at the college, he quickly took to his own bardic practices. Upon informing his parents he wished to pick up some bardic tactics, his father hired a private tutor for him so he would have adaquate attention to his lessons. Eventually the local bard college shut down his final year of pre college learning, his mother retiring with the close of the school, he took to aspiring to join the irondale capitals bard college. After completing his studies Lumen made his way to Irondale, during a festival that was being held. There was fliers littered across the street advertising for a guilding tournament. Lumen concluded it would be the best way to pay for his enrollment, as well as to get some real experience as a bard. After competeing in the tournament he was accepted into the Azure Lions, after roughly a month of being in the gguild he was sent on his first big mission with the party. On their adventures he would pick up a cow mount named Strawberry, and a mini raptor named Crowbar. The party would later discover Shadyville their soon to be base of operations. Shadyville was having a talent show the first time Lumen and co discovered it, Lumen being as bardic as he is, and as competitive as he was decided to take part in. After a long night in the bar watching others compete, when it was his turn Lumen changed from his normal casual outfit into an all leather outfit, where he proceded to steal the show and win as well as fighting Malum Sahnguis and saving their group's leader.

While adventuring with the Murder Hobos, as they would come to call their small group, he decided to purchase a instrument of Illsusions. However fairly broke due to putting all his extra gold into saving for the college, he decided to flirt with the excentric shop holder named Dantez, who took him off on the offer. After a rather active night, Lumen was presented the knowledge that Dantez was magicing a disguise and had fallen in love with Lumen, the two decided that while Lumen undertook the quest he had been given by the King they would stay in touch with letters. Dantez informed Lumen of the fact his store was magic and could appear wherever it needed to be at that time, Dantez showed Lumen he was in fact a powerful magic user. Upon departing the next morning from the capital, the two kept in touch every chance they could. The party managed to set up a camp and free the people of the town of X. While adventuring the world of Exia they recieved an invitation to a play about their group, the group made their way to the play in X. After the play and some yelled critiques from everyone in the party, Lumen was presented with an invitation to Dantez's shop which had found its way there. Met at the door by the elder elvish like man Lumen and party were swept into the shop where Dantez told the party all of Lumen and Dantez's relationship details and proposed to Lumen. Lumen agreed but had one final leg of his quest to complete. They were tasked with bringing the spirits of queens that had long been forgotten, except in childrens tales, back to the soul of their King husband. Upon bringing the souls to the husband, the husband revealed himself to be a half silver half gold dragon, who gave the party an option to die or live as one of his men. Scared for what would happen to him, and in concern for Dantez, Lumen agreed to join the King under the circumstances he and Dantez get to carry on having a normal life. The King agreed upon hearing how powerful Dantez could be, and Lumen made his departure from the main party by bowing and ripping his guild cloak off, letting it fall to the floor. Lumen was sent away by the King who presented the rest of the party their options. Some joined and some chose to die as far as he was made aware. The King had used an extremely strong hold person spell on the rest of the party. The King resurected his wives ad they set out to bring Exia to its knees. The first stop was the capital where Lumen led the King to Dantez, who broke Lumen's heart by not joining the Kings party. Dantez's refusal sparked the Kings rage and he attempted to destroy Dantez and his shop. They returned to Irondale's castle where the King and his wives dragged Lumen onto the large bridge leading to it. The King overloaded Lumen's body with magic, which fried his brain and senses. all he could hear was ringing and them making fun of him calling him the court jester, before they threw his body off the bridge, into the waterfall behind it, where he crashed into a bunch of rocks that tore his body apart and swept him out to sea, where Cthulhu saw potential to shake the Earth within him.

As Lumen's body drifted out to sea, with his dying breath he was met with an offer from a mysterious voice "You have been wronged dear child, they do not see the potential you have to bend the world to their knees. I present you a choice Serve me and help me by spreading word of me as my acolyte or drift to death here and now forget about your fiance and the lifee that was ripped from you. Make them bow to you or die weak annd worthless." Lumen with his memories already beginning to fade chose to cling onto what he could and agreed. The voice who revealed himself to be Cthulhu restored what he could of Lumen's broken and fading body, though it wouldnt entirely heal without drawing so much energy it would kill Lumen. He drifted Lumen to that of The Steppes, where he was pulled ashore by the local villagers who nursed him the rest of the way back to health. The villagers bandaged him up and sewed what they could, Lumen was in and out of it for awhile. When he awoke he found himself vacant of all memories of who he was, his past anything, only remembering the choice he made, the voices moking him and calling him "Jester" and vaguely what had occured that they had attacked him, and thrown him off the bridge. Upon his awakening the villager takinng care of him startled and fetched the others who sent their leader to talk to him about who he was or where he came from. He was barely able to respond with "Jester", it was afterall the only thing he remembered being called. Without his prior memories he had a panic attack and ripped his bandage off his face to show his eye constantly shifting and changeing, the rest of his magic proceeded to go haywire with random outbursts, he eventually passed out. The second time he awoke was late at night, his wounds fully healed but all heavily scarred up and irritated, to hear the voice faintly again like it had been speaking in his dreams, and his current mask and outfit folded neatly next to his bed. As dawn broke Jester had arranged the mysterious clothing onto his body followed by the nifty mask which holds a magic enchantment to keep his magic from acting out, and would prevent him from using it until he trained himself to weild it again, or so he was told by that mysterious voice again. Jester was out at the break of dawn helping with the village's chores so he could repay them for helping him. The entire village awoke a few hours later in confusion at seeing the now masked man, finishing up some of the chores. They were quick to take him under their wing and teach him what they could, Jester stayed with them for several years, till the absence of his memory became an issue within himself and upon talking with the village elders they sent him to look for something that he seemed to remember, something familiar to him. Jester planned his departure and was presented with a more jester looking outfit the villagers had come to gather to get custom made. When Jester set out to find something familiar, he traveled by his instincts going and avoiding wherever he seemed to feel was right. His instintcs eventually led him to thee outside of a cave, where he sat on a large rock watcing comers and goers stumble to and fro. Jester concluded some kind of festival was happening within the cave he sat outside of. He wasnt quite sure what about this particular spot was familiar so he decided to sit where he was and just wait. As the night passed the sky never seemed to lighten again, dark stormclouds now threatened to storm it was only an hour or two after Jester awakened that the storm began to thunder to the world. He was soon greeted by a group of humanoids who he had never seen before but somehow felt familiar, who ushered him into the warm cave mid celebration where he was placed infront of a fire with towels to dry off with. After who Jester assumes to be the party's leader converses with them, they offered to bring him with them so he could partake on the journey to find what was familiar.

After joining the new arrangement of the Murder Hobos, Jester followed them to several locations without any tugs at his memory. The group found their way to Bridgeton where Jester while performing for a crowd in the center of town at the fountain had a slip up and was restored back to Lumen for a few moments. The group from Bridgeton heard of a tournament being held bu Queen Snow at one of the nearby towns. The group joined into the festivities around the tournament somw joing into Archery tourneys and the rest into Melee tourneys. After performing a small bit Jester jokingly joined the melee tourny just to show off his acrobatic abilities. Upon the rest of the tourneys finishing up the party who managed to finish in high placements, roughly only a total of 8 people finished high enough. Everyone took their place in stands or on field as Jester approached the queen offering to play music and entertain her while the competitions took place. Impressed with the party's performance Queen Snow offered them all to dinner that night. At the dinner Jester found something familiar in the banners of the Queen's townhouse that caused an episode of his panic attacks. Thankfully none of his magic ran rampant, but unbeknownst to everyone the inside of Jester's mask began to crack a small bit. Once his episode had cleared enough he was giftedd a rock in the shape of an octopus by a member of his group. The rock managed to subside enough of Jester's attack to move into a different room escorted by the groups rogue while they waited for the other dinner guests to arrive.

Once the other guests arrived the dinner proceeded and Jester uneased by having to move his mask for others to see him eat, refused to eat. Once wine was served Jester took one sip from a straw to appease the Queen. After being angered by one of the dinner guests the queen activated a magic that was instilled in the wine. Once she finished monologing to the party she had caught Jester in a lie calling him out for being a liar when he had declined any personal interwaction with the King. She threw the party into a basement dungeon. The party arranged a way to fight and defeat Queen Snow and upon escaping the party proceeded to the inn where the night was peaceful and the morning was an abrupt start with dragon flames everywhere with no other escape the party jumped down a well where they were presented with a magical door which led the party to the workshop of the Melonius Moonhare. Moonhare caught Jester humming a song he recognized only from his teacher, the two conversed about the song and Jester revealed his violin to Melonius who informed him of its origins. Moonhare led the group to a library where Jester found a book reguarding the violin itself and the magic it possessed and a book by the name of the necronomnomnomicon. After leaving the library the party made their way to their boat, while on their ship, Jester read into his books, and in a moment of "fuck it" Attempted to summon Cthulhu, to which he succeded and was swept into Cthulhus realm. Upon returning to the corporeal realm Jester found his party under attack by Queen Lyra to which Cthulhu summoned himself to fight her. Cthulhu force summoning himself drained Jester of his energy which knocked him out. While healing Cthulhu pulled Jester back into his realm for awhile. When he awoke he found himself in a tavern with his party members.
