=== Early Life ===
Anema was born of the [[Core]] lineage in [[Golik]], [[Amusa]] in 571 P.R. His father was [[Sick of this Shit/NPCs|Riccardo E. Core]], and his mother was named Bella Sposa. According to Anema, his parents were "the Opera's first great stars".

[[File:Riccardo E Core.jpg|left|thumb|233x233px|Pictured: Riccardo E. Core, Lord of Music ]]
Spoiled from birth, Anema was the noble son of a long reigning family of bards who ran the entertainment district in the largest city in Quelmar: Galik, Amusa. For over a century he indulged in women, money, drinks, and low level addictions, all the while he performed music in Galik's underground circuit, which mostly included small taverns in odd-sides of town.

But ultimately his father beat the shit out of him for spending most of their money. Anema had realized he could be happier away from the urban lifestyle. Because hiring a boat from Galik would have drawn controversy, he fled to the nearby shanty town of Seawell.

=== The Tovag Again ===
=== The Tovag Again ===
On an expedition to find his friend [[Zugs McFlair|Zugs]], Anema and [[Doraleous]] once again entered the [[Tovag Baragu]]. After reuniting the team, they made their way back to Quelmar (or an alternate Quelmar). However, they arrived in the ethereal plane, and it appeared to be over 100 years later...on the day of [[Tiamat]]'s attack on the city of [[Dolmvay]].

However, they arrived in the ethereal plane, and it appeared to be over 100 years later...on the day of [[Tiamat]]'s attack on the city of [[Dolmvay]].  


Nearly an hour after phasing his way back onto the material plane, Anema pissed off [[Vecna]], who then sent him back to his native timeline. Because of this, Anema then had 100 years to prepare for the events that were unfolding. He vowed to raise an army large enough to take on Tiamat, and to arrive on the day of the battle the long-way-around.

=== "Anema and the Life Without Death" ===
=== "Anema and the Life Without Death" ===
Shortly after he retired, Anema began work on his memoir. "Anema and the Life without Death" became the stories and adventures of Anema E. Core after he became immortal. His post-mortalis life starting with The Day of Nimz in 693 and ending with the '''Anema and the Father of the Halls''' in 701, just after the turn of the century. The most notable things of this time period include the founding and growth of [[The Anema Institute of Discovery (AID)]], which he based out of [[Sneerwell]]. Additionally he lived through the birth of his and Lora's child Giustino E. Core, the death of Lora Pendergras, the marriage between Anema and Paulette, and the birth of Anema's child with Paulette: Enel E. Core.

=== Return to Adventuring ===
Anema's retirement roughly lasted until 740 [[PR]] (with the exception of a small number of extraordinary days). Anema returned to the adventuring trail by first putting together a new team. To do this, he went back to the company his old team founded: [[Sick of this Shit Incorporated (Organization)|Sick of this Shit Incorporated]]. Talking to the guild leader [[Benny the Bard|Benny]], Anema stumbled onto three members of the guild he believed could fill the hole in his heart left by his old teammates.

[[Doraleous]] needed to resurrect Anema after he was killed by [[Severain]] and [[The Cult of the Dragon]]. This expended the use of a [[Wish]] that was given to SotS by [[Atnas]].

=== Corellon's Offer ===
=== Corellon's Offer ===
Some time in the 800s [[PR]], Anema was approached by an avatar of [[Corellon]], asking him for assistance. The Gods had a game going on, which revolved around a [[halfling]] who lived in [[Bywater]] who was ADAMANT that the gods were not real gods, but rather powerful wizards. Anema was tasked with using his bardic charm and wit to convince the halfling, but in the end, Anema let the Halfling decide to do with his life what he wanted, while also simultaneously (and slyly) offering the halfling a new life, working at [[Sick of this Shit Incorporated]]. It was Anema's hope that this sudden and fortuitous offer that had fallen at the hobbit's large feet was evidence of a God.

Corellon reached out to Anema years after that again, telling Anema that he could not join the royal courts and play for the gods, as he had work to do on the Material Plane...namely, he needed to convince his son Giustino to get into the bardic arts. Corellon saw Anema's generous and kind fathering as weakness, and an attitude that could end the famous Core bloodline of artists forever. Giustino would later write a song, though the circumstances were unknown, and Guistino's children would also go on to become musicians.
