Copper was abandoned by his mother Thirza and left to perish. However, he managed to survive after being taken in by a group of crows. He lived on with the crows and allowed his powers to flourish to their full potential. He became a notorious trickster wherever he went doing whatever he wanted when he wanted. He was often stealing, pranking travelers, and more, using the crows to assist him.
As he got older he felt a magical influx of energy. This energy sparked his interest which lead to him investigating and thus helping the establishment of the Guild of the Lost. There was an unbalance within the realm that was occurring and the stronger it was getting the more he didn't like it.
He wanted to find out more but it appeared that what he was looking for came to him. The leader he was helping was being targeted by someone connected to this unbalance by the name of Comedina. Individuals fell to her experiments and were known as a Runner. He tracked down this lead that was targeting the leader and was interrupted by a group of individuals. He decided to simply not interfere as best as he could and laid low within the shadows taking on the appearance of a lowly beggar. He helped this group and guided them to where he last saw the runners attacking the leader and found one of the runners dead with a Frecia Academy of Magicpin. The group was ambushed and he fled the scene to watch things unfold. Realizing that he could use them to his advantage, he stepped in to prevent guards from interfering and from the citizens from seeing the carnage.
Copper was intrigued with the group as they appeared to be stronger than he originally thought. Fearing that they would succumb to the wrong side, he warned them to stay away from his business as best as they could. He made his way to the Academy were he took on the guise of a student and tried to continue his investigation.
The following day, he saw Jo'Han Dough, one of the individuals he saw in the alley, in the mess hall of the academy. Knowing that they appeared to be following the same lead his curiosity with the group grew more. He made his way out into the courtyard where he began to feel a strong sense of magic occurring. Here is where he saw through Comedina's guise as Cecil. Knowing that she was one of the heads to the hydra he was trying to find, he took a position on top of a fountain. The group he encountered the other day came forth into the courtyard alongside some friends of his. The group had Domino Wittenmyer, Luna Eventide, and Malady Visus. Students he had befriended with the thanks of the people he was partnered with. This further his interest with the group even more.
A fight began and the runners he saw the other day were exposed alongside Comedina. This time Copper stepped into the fight to take Comedina for himself. However, they were able to get away from him before he could do much. However in doing so, Copper was able to detect a different sense of familiarity. This was a different lead that he wanted to check in on. Before doing so he confronted the group that had been moving alongside him. If they were to continue down the same path as he was he wanted to make sure that they knew what side they were fighting for. He offered to give them more information but they needed to head to Kather's Mystics and Wares to do so. He also developed a pact with Chef. Chef peaked his interest the most due to the similar mask he wore to the one Comedina wears alongside some other things he was able to pick up on from him.
Copper found himself tracking down one of The Horrors, which brought him to a farm ran by Alarus in Greckas. He decided to station himself there to oversee the area and observe without Alarus knowing. In doing, so he came across a group of individuals from The Hunter's Guild known as the IT Squad. His cover was blown and he fled the scene but was later discovered in the town's tavern. After a brief discussion with the squad members, his suspicions were solidified and true after one the members Mimi showed him a bell that they had found. A bell was a huge indicator and one of the ways, he was tracking down the individual. He let the team continue their own investigation as he went back to report in to the Guild of the Lost.
Later on, Copper had concerns that the person he was tracking was going to cause harm to the farm and prevent a supply chain from flourishing. He started a partnership with Alarus and granted him the necessary powers to fend for himself on the farm. This created a pact between the two them.
