Killerjoy
After the gargoyle attack on Mayor's Manor and the subsequent battle between Silver One and Demaro Jun, the lords of Carver held a summit at the Paramount. Austra was there to help keep things under control and was fielding most of the questions when the Wicker attacked. In the ensuing battle, Jun and Austra kept the beast preoccupied for a time before Silver One stepped in. When the fighting was over, Austra had the supposed masque arrested and brought to the Sky Hall.

Afterward, Austra assigned Jun with the task of finding the summoner of the Wicker. He had to bring Black Ox along with him to the site of the summoning. While all other lords were gone, Lovis and Blite were to watch over Silver One. He escaped with the aid of Ember Spin, something Austra was not happy with.

After the fact, he held a meeting with all the lords of Carver and announced Thena Mar's departure from Carver. He also demoted Lovis to Third Decadent for her failure to prevent Silver One's escape, and to effectively eliminate her chances of ever becoming a centurion. Austra also announced that the lord who provides the most help in finding the masques would be given the rank of Lord Adjunct, Thena Mar's position.

When Gentina Mildren traveled to Xander, the Lord Primes there mentioned Austra, wanting to send a task force to assist him with keeping Carver under control. Baneman and Shining are intended to be sent. Mildren allows it.

Austra knew the truth of the Insurrection when others didn't, and likely the truth of the attack on the Matreon as well. He informed Jun and the other lords of Carver of what happened for true in Joal. He also warned the lords that the Joalish migrants would likely have a response to the Insurrection and the attack on the Matreon.

After Mildren's escape with her Haiguard thanks to Exa, Austra left for Lord Prime Epoch's ascension. Or at least that's what he told people. Instead, he was enlisted to chase after Exa and Mildren to bring about an end to all of it. He was instructed to deal with Exa before they all took Mildren back to Xander. Before he could, Exa fled into the Whirle, attempting to drag Mildren with her. Instead, she merely ripped Mildren's soul from her body.

After the attack on the masque hideout and Austra returned from his trip to Swarov, he met with Jun. He promoted the lord to First Decadent and offered him the position of Lord Adjunct even with Baneman and Shining on their way to Carver. It didn't take much convincing for Jun to accept.
