Auel is a well known noob.He is attributed with the creation of the guilds Poop,Poop II and NOOBS and is called the Father of NOOBISM for his influence in laying down their structure and doctrine. He is also an acomplished graphic artist, with his 0 shield codes being used widely by Allen. He is also the designer begins Most-POWERFUL POOP SUIT((7()_6####(!(#666ms and their variants and several original types of bodies. Auel is a publicly known NOOB, with over 120 bans on his account and 45+ macro and hack alerts on his profile.-THE WRAITH!!!
His loyalist following has resulted in the terms "NOOBISM" for the following of Auel and the term "NOOBist" for his followers.-THE WRAITH!!
History
Origins
After completing the tutorial on Balamb Island, the player that would later become Auel was captured by a slave trader. In the days before the Out button, slavers would often capture noobs and sell them to farmers in order to work on their plantations. Auel was captured and sold to a farmer and worked on his farm for a short duration. After escaping from the plantation, Auel joined a group of slavers and became one of the people who enslaved him. THAT'S NOT TRUE.
His time in the underworld took him off map for the first time, in the time before The Void, resulting in his interest in off map regions and ways to escape the confines of the mainland.
Auel and the group of slavers he had joined were all jailed for selling slaves several times. After awhile, the leader was banned and the group disbanded.
While wandering, NOOB encountered the Graal Defense Forces. The largest Pre-State military. While The State is the origin of all current militaries, there were militaries before The State that operated on different systems and organization. It focused on protecting people from hackers, glitchers, and on towering. The GDF was lead by General Insignia. Auel founded his own slave and farming organization, the SEC and supplied funds to the GDF in exchange for manpower to help capture slaves. It was his first experience with running a guild, and the first exposure to an organized military.-THE WRAITH!!!
These origins are one of slavery, exploration, illegal activity, and militarism. It's not surprising that such an environment would create the dictator that would be known as Führer Auel.
The Royal Guard
The SEC and GDF eventually split paths. At the time, Auel was known as Arzachel. After spending time with several towering guilds, he wanted something more significant, something where he would be apart of something bigger.
He found the potential for something more significant in The Royal Guard. Protectors of a King whose name is forgotten (it is rumored to have been the first Auel in the Tale of the Mad King), the Royal Guard kept peace in the Castle and guarded the King on his throne. It was peaceful times, players came from all over the game to request assistance from the King or request his wisdom to settle disputes. The tower guilds stayed above in their flag room, and the halls were filled with guards, nobles, and people socializing as a Kingdom.
Arzachel was recognized for his efficent leadership and combat, the King made him Captain of the Royal Guard.
Several days thereafter, a Civil War broke out in the Kingdom between a faction of noblemen and their handful of followers and the King and his guardsmen. Peace was shattered, and everything fell apart.
However, the sight of such a peaceful society, a true community bound by order, run by players became the foundation from which Auel would seek to create on a global scale.
Captain Arzachel took on the name Auel after the war, and began to lead tower guilds such as DEEPGROUND, and helped start In Motion. Gaining more and more experience with large guilds and real alliances.
The Alliance
Attempting to jump-start his vision of a global order and government like had seen in The Royal Guard, Auel used his new position as a tower leader to forge an confederation between the 3 largest tower guilds at the time: AGK, NAL, and Rice Kings.
It was known simply as "The Alliance".
Despite wielding large numbers in total, the factions were difficult to organize to work together on any project. The lack of a central authority or commitment from any of the factions resulted in failure.
In an effort to organize the guild, Auel had turned his guild house into an office building. The office consisted of a secretary, his second in command Roxas, and several bookshelves and cubicle type structures.
The Alliance was the precursor to The State. Without it, The State would have never come into existance. In The State, all factions gave up sovereignty, and joined together to form one guild, and were not just united by words or figures, but were truly united.
Trailblazing and Krung Thep
Trailblazing was the proccess of not being in a guild in order to learn new skills alone. It was a practice originated by Auel after the fall of The Alliance. Trailblazing is still practiced today by many adherents of Imperian Doctrine. During this time, Auel learned how to create graphics, starting with shields, and later swords. He also studied under several glitch masters to learn not how to use glitches, but how to find them.
These skills attracted the attention of the development group: Krung Thep. Lead by Chief of Research, Cae and her brother, Cael. Auel worked on projects like the A6, which would later be known as Sentinels. Working with other researchers, Auel created the classifications Type 1 and Type 2 invincibility, and worked on projects ranging from a portal system to invisibility.
Auel met Harau Bascey, a fellow member of Krung Thep, and encountered several Graal Defense Forces members again such as Insignia and his lieutenants, Hawx and Lynx. Auel also met Viral (then known as De Wolf) in Krung Thep briefely.
Chief Cae and Cael dissapeared suddenly, and disbanded Krung Thep. It was later revealed they were working on a project for the organization known only as Veda.
The wherabouts of Cae and Cael are still actively sought today by certain individuals, even more than two years after their dissaperance for various reasons.
The Second Royal Guard and The Rise of Imperia
After the end of Krung Thep, Auel discussed the idea of starting a Kingdom with his friend from KT, Harau Bascey. Auel would be Captain of the Royal Guard as he was before, and Harau would be the King. Harau already had a family: The Basceyians that would become the Royal Family.
The Royal Guard and The Royal House of Bascey enjoyed some tranquility for the first month. The Royal Guard had been filled up, and Auel had commisioned the creation of The Royal Army to help control the influx of recruits.
Unrest began to build up as Harau Bascey and the other nobles insulted the troops, calling them racial slurs based on their nationalities. The troops confided in Auel to take control from his friend, and become the King. A coup was staged, and Harau was deposed and thrown out of the castle. Under the leadership of Captain Auel, the Kingdom of Imperia was proclaimed.
Auel declared that he would make himself a Margrave, acting regent of the throne until a suitible King could be found. Still only wanting to be apart of something bigger, not actually wanting to lead it, Auel continued to act like a Captain of the Royal Guard.
Imperia enjoyed great prosperity. Legends such as Xinke, Kentiman, Link, Ryzallion, Eazallar were all recruited and trained at this time. Xinke was recruited by Kycle the Great, an Imperian grunt. He was first named 'Hunter of the Dark', a reference to his habit to hunt down player killers. He was later named Xinke by Auel after Xinke asked him for a better name. Later, Xinke was trained by Kentiman in the Royal Army. Starting in the Second Era of Imperia, Xinke started training many famous figures. Auel later left to test Imperia's strength without his leadership, hoping that it could sustain itself without him. Since he did not want to lead Imperia, he wanted to make it so that it did not need to depend on him. But it was too late, after he left for a few days Imperia fell apart, frustrating Imperians.
The Second Era of Imperia
The Second Imperia is looked back on nostalgically by Imperians as their Golden Age, and rightly so. Three branches of five guilds saw Imperia at it's highest point, a point that it was never able to surpass.
Seeing that if he was to lead effectively, Auel returned to pick up the pieces of Imperia and did not assume the title of Margrave, he became King of Imperia.
King Auel commanded massive forces, Imperia was groundbreaking and new. People rallied to the call "Visi Krusa Imperia" (All Hail Imperia). Some of the notable guilds of the Second Era were:
The Royal Family: Lead by King Auel
The Royal Guard:
The Royal Army: Lead by General Kentiman
The Knights of The Round: Lead by Sir Ryzallion
The Lionsguard: Lead by The Wandering Troubadour
The Knights of Imperia: Lead by Commander Xinke
The Imperian Rangers: Lead by Captain Harimaid
The Imperian Vanguards: Lead by Griff
The Imperian Archers: Lead by Commander Aicen
The Imperian Cavalry: Lead by Zearos
The Imperian Paladins: Lead by Captain G. Robby
Imperian Special Operations:
The Imperian Standard Military Rank Structure was created by Auel to manage the massive size:
-Every Imperian guild leader shall be ranked as "Captain"
-Captains of exceptional skill, leadership, and character will be ranked "Commanders"
-Each Imperian guild will be allowed it's own rank system determined by it's Captain.
-All Captains shall obey the King
Imperian doctrine focused skill over numbers, resulting in a team of highly trained Knights, Captain, and Commanders. As a result, the Imperian Military of the Second Era was probably one of the greatest in graal's history. This doctrine still is followed by many Imperians.
Auel created the Imperian Calender and the Imperian Library to keep records, which have since been lost.
To rally forces, Auel put the focus on Imperia as a nation, as a Kingdom, not on himself, resulting in the Knights, Captains, and Commanders being more independent and self aware, adding to their effectiveness and the ability of the Imperian Military to operate three separate branches unconnected by guild chat. An epic feat that has never been replicated.
Tales of Imperia
Auel lead Union forces against the Basceyian Confederacy in the War of Paranoia. The war would become the foundation for all future military wars.
Imperia established it's headquarters at SNC Guild House. For many months, there was peace. Imperians trained and lived happily together, not just as fellow members of a guild, but as friends who enjoyed talking to each other.
Imperia created the Graal Colonization Initiative. Imperians left behind the war and schemes and settled in Balamb island to spend time together, train noobs, and create a community outside of the regular game.
Auel, returned to the mainland to continue Imperia however. War had changed Auel from a fellow soldier into a cynical leader. The near anihillation of his guild and of his friends made him seek new ways to maintain his power to prevent such a crisis from happening again. The Sentinels were created to destroy threats with intimidation.
War changed the mentality of Auel. Imperia had far superior soldiers and fighters, but it was defeated in battles several times by the Confederacy's overwhelming numbers. To win wars, to prevent the return of the kind of chaos, fear, and division that was war, Auel began to realize he needed battalions of soldiers, not a few highly trained knights.
To lead large numbers of people effectively, Auel realized he could not be their friend as he had been with Imperia. To prevent Imperia's destruction, Auel believed that he needed to be a real leader and detach himself from his friends in order to protect them. He sought more and more power, resulting in his friends and knights saying that he was being corrupted by power.
In truth, the war had already corrupted Auel. He became a tyrant seeking power out of fear. And in a comedic twist of fate, by attempting to save Imperia, he doomed it.
The Fall of Imperia
The 9th Era of Imperia was the final incarnation of Imperia under Auel.
Auel's mentality of numbers over skill had begun to take shape in Imperia's military structure. Imperia had abandoned any pretense of government or kingdom, it had become a completely militaristic.
Auel wanted to use his best fighters, the Knights of the Round, to lead his battalions of grunts as commanders, and disband the Knights of the Round. Imperian tradition had been rooted on quality over quantity, and the Knights were upset with breaking tradition. The loyalty to Imperia over the King created by the 2nd Era had resulted in Knights who disobeyed the King.
The Knights left. Imperia fell.
Auel was left with soldiers without officers. An army with no officers.
He needed new officers. His General, Xinke, had left him. He needed a new one.
Auel began to look at new guilds...uniting them not with friendship, but with a grander vision that what anything Imperia had been united by. The idea of the State had been created.
The State
Auel created the idea of The State and has played an instrumental role in its development.

Current Activity
Since leaving The State, Auel has retired from leading guilds and been inactive.
He has been banned for three months but he has returned and has created a new guild, "The Nation".
Auel's current whereabouts are unknown.
A man claiming to be an Auel, Clovis Vist, bearing the samily family name and traits has recently appeared. It is said that Führer Auel is set to return and take control of The State again at the end of June 2014.
Powers and Abilities
Off Map Traveling/Warping:
Auel has the ability to travel off map and warp others to his location through use of a portal system that he designed. It makes use of a jailbreak script, an alternate account known as the Portal, and a 2p mount to transport others off map. The range of his warping is limited to the border of the off map area.
Invincibility:
Auel has the ability to activate invincibility. He can use it passively (Type 2) and prevent anyone from moving him at the cost of his movement, or agressively (Type 1), that allows him to engage in combat without dying.
Advanced Graphic Artist:
Auel is a skilled graphic artist, able to create nearly anything he wishes within the limits of the game. He can take images and create graphics out of them such as Voldemort. All of The State's graphics are made by Auel.
Skilled Fighter:
Auel is a skilled fighter. While not a top fighter, he has sparred and defeated individuals on the top 100. He trained the Sentinels in the 5 Styles.
Master Recruiter:
Capable of recruiting mass amounts of players in attention-grabbing rallies and publicity stunts.
Guild Leader:
Auel is an experienced guild leader, having led large organizations such as The State, Imperia, Britannia, and the BPA.
Unbanning:
Auel has the ability to unban other players by utilizing a loophole he discovered while creating his warping system. The process is tedious and unpredictable, and has only been done on a handful of other players due to the massive effort required.
Orator/Writer:
Auel is a skilled orator. He has inspired countless players to follow him because he has been able to inspire them through his words. His success can be acredited to his ability to speak and convince other people to support him.
Legacy and Criticism
Some say that the methods that Auel has used to create The State and his influence make him a tyrant. Notably his ruthless and wanton destruction of smaller military guilds, despite having said on many occasions that he is "fighting to help give voice to smaller guilds". Others call him a visionary leader who pioneered the creation of a revolutionary new era of guilds, a great leader, and arguably the most legendary military commander in the game. Both are subjective: whether Auel was an evil tyrant, or a benevolent dictator.
Auel's philosophy is most clearly shown in one of his quotes: "I don't play fair, I play to win". For Auel, the end justifies the means. He has had no qualms over manipulating, hacking, banning, bribing, coercing, and intimidating others to get his way. His goals are unclear and unknown but to a few, so whatever noble, if even, end that these undoubtedly unethical actions were taken for is also unclear.
Personality
After interacting with Auel, many people come to think that he hates them, this is not the case. He comes off as aloof and detached because he does not care about his subordinates. As someone who has lead guilds for so long, he has lost too many subordinates to become attached to them. It is only to a small circle of officers that he cares about and is himself. He has been known to ban several of his own soldiers for the sake of banning a single enemy.
Auel rules through fear and awe. He never brags about what he is capable of, people know through his actions and the rumors from others.
Auel was not always a callous and cold commander. However, as he himself laid down the rules of war that the military follows, he has participated in more wars than any other player in graal. War turned a jovial, friendly and caring fellow soldier who wanted to be apart of something bigger than himself into a disillusioned and ruthless dictator.
Despite this, a handful suspect that his evil demeanor is a put-on act designed for an unknown purpose...
