* Ideal: The ancient history of this world, and its unexplored regions, are absolutely worth discovering and protecting and I will do everything in my power to make it so.
* Bond: I enjoy the smaller things in life, like the blowing of the breeze against my uncovered skin, the falling leaves at the change of seasons, and the voices of children playing nearby.
* Flaw: Coming from a small town where everyone cares for each other, I am very naive and susceptible to the corruption of the outside world. I am too trusting and may allow the wrong people to get much too close.
*Pop culture influences: Their personality is much like Korg's, who is depicted in Thor: Ragnarok, and Thor: Love and Thunder. Nice and calm, but ready to buck up and fight for things that are just.
* Mannerisms to help GMs portray them consistently: They are very kind and quick to trust, so they like to talk, even when they shouldn't. They talk slow, which can create interesting conversations when they can't say what they would like fast enough.

== Background / Personal history: ==
Yellivas Gohnavaeda is a Stoneborn who worked in the various mines of the rocky town, Kaas'Tuumbi. They are a rather attractive individual with a broad, robust build, sporting a dashing smile and pleasant attitude. Their mood is almost always chipper and their countenance smiling, bring good times and great vibes to all around. They hope to work with the FBK in order to explore the realm and discover ancient secrets.
Yellivas is a tall, broad, pale-purple skinned humanoid with a muscled body that make some believe they could move mountains. They are masculine presenting with bright and shimmering blue eyes and a fairly sharp facial structure. Their thickly braided, jet-black hair reaches to their mid-back and, when unbraided or wet, can reach their rear. They have a large scar on their face, that runs vertically down the left side of their face, from the tip of their eyebrow, all the way to their jawline. They are often seen wearing a loose, V-cut cotton shirt with baggy cotton pants, and a noticeable lack of shoes. They carry around a massive, beat-up, steel pickaxe, which is normally slung across their back when not in use.
Yellivas is called a Stoneborn as that is where they were found as a baby, and they hold this dear to them. Yellivas oftentimes goes by Yelley, however they occasionally introduce themselves with their hometown nickname, "Boulder". They like to make sure their physique is strong and proper, as the work they do requires it.
In their beginnings, Yellivas was found on the mountain side, in a carved, stone orb, by a man of the name Totehb, the general store proprietor of Kaas'Tuumbi. He was out on the outskirts of town, assisting in the surveying of new, potential mining locations when he happened across Yelley. He brought the orb into town, which took quite some time due to the encumbrance of a very heavy stone. The town collectively referred to them as the "Stoneborn" child and it stuck. In Yellivas's first years, they were taught to read and write by Totehb, while also learning various techniques and jobs. The town tried to keep them away from the mines, but Yellivas always found their way to the dangerous shafts and tunnels, where they would get lost for hours just exploring.
In their older years, until they were about 16, they continued visiting the mines and learning the tricks of the trade, even mining a few veins and deposits themself. After they became of age, they were given the pickaxe that they carry around today. They were given free reign of the mines and even the vast cavern systems of the mountains' underbellies. They worked hard and long and carved out many new routes, which most thought near impossible, due to their sheer willpower and determination. This granted them the nickname, "Boulder". Unfortunately, one day they were just exploring the mines and they were caught in a cave in. The left side of their face had a massive gash, to which they eventually passed out from. They were rescued a day later and recovered over the next few days, but this didn't thwart their interest in the caves and mines. It only grew as now they knew there needed to be proper structure in the shafts. They eventually gained interest in smithing as well, turning the fruits of their mining labor into even bigger and better things. Sammin, the town's blacksmith, fairly young in her years, took Yellivas under her wing and taught them everything she knew. Yelley, over time, became quite proficient with the smithing way and had even begun to make full armor sets and advanced weapons.
After a while, Yellivas began to develop interest in an area they found while excavating tunnels. There was a site of some kind of ancient ruins, which heavily intrigued them. They studied these ruins for 6 years without much progress until they were finally able to carefully get through the large double doors of the chamber and discovered what seemed to be a mess hall with all manner of trinkets, journals, and old dining materials. There was a large throne at the end of the mess hall, upon which sat a very large skeleton, even larger than "Boulder", who was the largest person in the town by a long shot. They were able to discover that there used to be an ancient race of giants that lived within these mountains and thrived on what seemed to be cave dwelling plants and animals, which they deduced by reading and painstakingly translating whatever they could out of the fragile, ancient notebooks. This sparked a passion in them that they didn't know they had, and so they set off into the world to explore the unknown and uncover even more ancient history of the lands abroad. Jomei, the informal leader of the town, wished them well and sent them on their way with an upgraded version of his pickaxe, which Sammin made just for him.
