Kaern Nuada Kyr-Astarion

== Background / Personal history: ==
Kaern was born in the shadowlands to a ruling house of shadow elves. Shadow elves being habitually serious and dower Kaern doesn’t remember having much fun in his early years. He was constantly being told he needed to fit and stop his foolish antics. Kaern tried to make friends in the strangest of places, namely the local shadow wildlife. Not exactly renowned for their friendly nature. One day he was caught by his parents looking after a pair of injured shadowbeasts. After an explosive argument Kaern was banished to his room; an order he obeyed for about 6 seconds before promptly deciding to run away. Without any particular direction in mind he just ran and kept running. After hours he collapsed unconscious.
When he awoke the first thing he noticed was how bright and colorful everything was. He knew immediately that he was not where he knew; even the air tasted differently. Feeling alone but free he decided to embrace this luck and ventured into the unknown. Over the years he attempted to make friends with the new locals with mixed results, through trial and error he learned how things worked in these parts. He learned to local language and that these were known as the lands of the fey. At best he was able to abide a few months with some creatures before they grew tired of his presence and he was forced to move on. The only exception to this were two dire wolves that seemed oddly familiar to him. They would turn up frequently before going about their business. Over the years they became a welcome familiar sight.
Eventually, in an attempt to find a more permanent home he approached one of the fey elf cities. We will skip over the details of what happened there but suffice to say he was not accepted with open arms and once again was left to wander. It was about this time that he decided perhaps he should try a new realm. Now realm hopping is not the easiest of feats but if you don’t have a specific destination in mind and have ample time a bit of luck well it makes things a bit easier. Once he was ready Kaern was surprised to see the two familiar dire wolves waiting for him. ‘Coming too are we’ he smiled.
