John is a human who has had a crippled past, but today, he is one of Shogon's greatest heroes.
History[]
-Early Life-[]
John's biological parents were Cal and Kisha from planet Earth. Cal's nemesis, the Arcmage, who fought Cal many times, tried to get Cal's son, John as his apprentice. He always failed until Cal died a natural death (Or so we thought). Then, the Arcmage visited Cal and announced he was going to take the child for his own. ("Arcmage Victorious")
- The name or identity of Cal's son was not established in this game; it wasn't until The Arcmage's Apprentice that it was retroactively established to be John.
The Arcmage of Shogon was led into a strange portal, being whispered to by an alternate Arcmage. He falls into a new realm. (The one where Arcmage Victorious takes place) The alternate version of The Arcamge from the previous game can be seen. He says, "Now that Cal is killed, you must take his son John to the Shogon Sector where you will train him. " The Arcmage accepts and starts training him. 10 years later John figures out how The Arcmage killed his Father, he rebels and runs away. Filled with anger, John runs away and falls into a strange portal; the portal takes John to Shri; his memory is whiped and he takes on a new set of parents who raise him to be a rebel of the Crodin (The Arcmage's Apprentice)
-Shri-[]
John gets caught by the Crodin for aiding the Zorelta, and gets attached to the hull of a ship where he suffered for many months. He eventually escaped when the ship sank. (due to the cause of a Construct) ("The Zigori Empire")
On Shri, John witnesses a group of Crodin doing something with a member of The Great who was in a coma. He then escaped the Crodin facility, saw Ginkus still sleeping in his stasis field, and pledged his loyalty to fight for Ginkus. ("Escape The Crodin")
John would go on to live on Shri for many years, thinking he grew up on it, but after being wanted by The Crodin, he runs to the Tower of N and goes through a portal to escape. He is teleported back to Shogon, and regains all of his memories. (John On Shri)
-Shogon adventures-[]
The moment John lands in Shogon, he is confronted by The Arcmage! Having regained all knowledge, John fights him but loses. The Arcmage decides to destroy a Kovian city and blaming it on the Hento, thus starting the great war between the two factions. John decides to fight with the Kovians. (John On Shri)
At some point, John visits a magical school where he meets Buff and his brother Tuff who he ends up killing. John also learns some magic which he used to fight The Arcmage. (School Of Secrets) Later, John explores the forest around the school and eradicates it of all evil beings. (Forest Of Secrets)
On his quest to save Shogon and end the war, John forms a group of allies to fight by his side. (D Dog & Skinny Dog) The trio goes on an epic exploration quest around Shogon, exploring the mountain of Tellot, fighting The Arcmage, betraying Skinny Dog, saving Buff's Biodome , and fighting the Hento. One notable battle he participates in is called "Showdown at the Dunes." (PCG Special 1)
John becomes Elgador's apprentice and gains immense power after being sucked into a strange arena where he has to pass many challenges. John also faces The Arcmage yet again in this game. (Elgador's Games by Epic Worlds PCG)
