Biography

Ostedia was born on February 10th, 1966 to a small family in the mideast United States. He was abused by his alcoholic father who frequently beat him and his mother. In 1971, he began showing signs of schizophrenia when he cut off the head of a crow and brought it to the dinner table. On May 19th, 1973, his father murdered his mother and fled the state. Ostedia was sent to a mentally impaired orphanage called "Sunny Children's Foundation" where he met some childhood friends. On May 19th, 1982, Ostedia escaped the orphanage with a fire axe and guitar, found his father at a local bar, and murdered him. From 1982-1984 Ostedia wandered the sewers teaching himself guitar.

By February 20th, 1984 Ostedia had joined "Circus of the West" as a guitarist with the performance group "Clowns of the West". There he met associates like Mallory Milton Mulberry, Jack Mosen, Annie Martin Holmes, Clerince, Roman Alder, and others. On April 22nd, 1986, Annie proposed performing a ritual to summon a creature called "Father Sun" that could solve everyone's problems. The next day, Roman's dead body was possessed by "Father Sun". On December 13th, 1990, the circus was burned down by a bullied performer named YUKC0. Annie's mental health crashed afterwards as he ranted about a "Circus in the Sky".

On December 29th, 1990, Jack Mosen introduced Ostedia to his therapist friend Adam Mach. They became very close over therapy sessions. From February 10th, 1991 to October 11th, 1992, Ostedia became a fan of underground grunge bands, especially Nirvana. On October 12th, 1992, while at Jack's "After Hours Motel", Ostedia saw a girl named Polly but instead of approaching her, he began stalking her for months. On February 15th, 1993, Adam Mach went missing and was presumed dead, causing Ostedia's sanity to decline. On February 10th, 1993, Ostedia kidnapped Polly and locked her in his basement, occasionally visiting her to play music. On March 3rd, 1994, Ostedia snapped and stabbed Polly to death, later mutilating her body. When both Polly & Mach passed away, Ostedia lost his will to live, wanting to be free from the curse that plagued him. On April 8th, 1994 he hung himself, leaving a suicide note.
