Armaxis was born in New Ta'Faendryl, but after some complications surrounding his mother's death, he and his father moved from the New City to a quieter life in a small manor. It was then that Armaxis found his passion for Sorcery, and he endeavored to learn all that he could.
After his father's death, Armaxis took to wandering the surrounding countryside - his travels eventually leading him to Wehnimer's Landing. There he occasionally takes up residence, though he is always travelling to one place or another, his conviction in the Serpent Lord driving him to perform His will wherever it is needed.
Armaxis had never given a thought to following the path of Lord Luukos' faithful, but that all changed when a friend and colleague of Armaxis' took him to speak with Lord Luukos.
Armaxis took this as a sign and a calling, and he endeavored to follow the Lord of Death as best he could - knowing now that His path was the true path. Led by his conviction in the Serpent Lord's ideals, Armaxis endeavored to serve Lord Luukos with every fiber of his being.
Armaxis continues to serve to this very day, knowing that he must perform Lord Luukos' will in order to purge the veil of ignorance which blinds others to the emerald light.
