History

Answeros was a wizard who lived in the Cave of Answers at the top of Mount Answers in the planet of Muscula. He maintained a position of neutrality between the two domains of Muscula: the paradise lands of Noblor and the dark domain of Evillius. He exemplified this by keeping the top half of his body in pristine condition and neglecting care of his lower portions. Answeros expressed the belief that Muscula was a world forever in balance between the goodness of Noblor and the evil of Evillius, and that this balance had to be forever maintained.

When Majestar, the champion of Noblor, sought Answeros to understand if his destiny as a hero was rigged since his nemesis, the ruler of Evillius named Rapskullion, seemed to be destined to fail, Answeros explained the nature of Muscula's balance and that a similar balance had to exist between brain and brawn, and that by only cultivating power, Rapskullion's unintelligence became his downfall. He warned Majestar to learn the lesson that had escaped Rapskullion, and to not choose muscle over mind.

After Majestar's brother Otherone became imbued with the Power Stone, Majestar took him to Answeros out of concern for the origins of his new power. Answeros found out that Otherone's power came from the Power Stone and was pleased to realize that the stone was regulated by its user's mental prowess, meaning that Otherone was bound to a balance and that he had to also grow his intellect if he wanted to grow any stronger. Answeros attempted to encourage Otherone to study, but the young prince rejected Answeros' ideas of balance, and still managed to find a way to tap into the Power Stone's full power by emptying his mind.

Answeros was presumably killed when Otherone accidentally used the Power Stone to destroy the entirety of Evillius, and the chain reaction resulted in the obliteration of the entire planet and the death of all Musculans save himself.[1]
