large amber eyes, high cheek bones and white, almost grey colored hair. He has short white horns and mustache goatee that matches his hair. He wears decorative armor including a large turtle like shell he uses as a shield. His gear is a mixture of coloring consisting of mostly navy blue and red coloring with white accents on his gear. Cajun has a very prominent southern accent and has enjoyed many luxuries in his 120 years of life. Growing up in a strict religious family, Cajun always knew he had a greater calling. From his studies of fawl lore and righteous upbringing he feels that it is his duty to give up the “easy” lifestyle he became accustomed to and hunt down evil monsters of the world. While “on the hunt”, Cajun wears a creepy brown leather mask used to insight fear in his “prey” and he thinks it looks very badass, it took a while but he is now accustomed to wearing the mask during vigorous physical activities and extreme heat. Born from a Fawl male and a human female, Cajun was raised along with his two younger brothers, Elijah (El-I-ji ah) and Brantly, in a small jungle village with a few other fawl-human families. The village was deep in the jungles and protected these families from the on going war between humans and fawl. Cajun was raised with amazing stories of his fathers past and the amazing adventures his father told him about fawl going on. He also knew of the atrocities humans have committed but his mother showed him that humans were not all evil and that ones alignment is not hereditary. (He learned for sure later in life.) His family was very religious and worshiped Forseena’s Fawl creation story. His father taught him about Gor and Vix, but he learned more about them as life went on. In about a week a group of strange families of humans and fawls moves into town. Unknown to Cajuns family this new group of people were part of a Kaowka cult. Cajun heard very little of Kaowka besides the story of their creation and how they were tainted. Cajun’s father confronted the cult when he learned of the group’s true nature. Cajun’s father was an outstanding warrior during his prime, but he was now out numbered and out matched. The next morning, Cajun awoke to screams coming from the center of town and ran towards the comotion. Too quick for his mother to stop him from seeing such a horrible sight, Cajun knelt by his father’s beaten and lifeless body as members of the town began to gather around. Cajun’s mother covered the eyes of his younger brothers and weped quietly. Cajun kissed his father on the head, took off his Gor necklace and joined his family in mourning. The cult left no trace and had vanished as quickly as they had come to this small little town. As much as their mother tried to avoid the topic of her husband’s death, her two oldest sons were hungry for answers. While the youngest son was too young to comprehend what had happened and the family would later learn that he was simple minded. Cajun wanted vengeance. He did not understand how people could live in the world of Gor, Vix, and Forseena and do such hateful things. Elijah wondered this as well, however as he grew older he began to believe that it was meant to happen. Their mother hated her boys talking about such a horrible topic that she forbid any discussion regarding religious views of their father’s death. After she passed away, as human so quickly do, Cajun and Elijah became more confrontational on the matter while Brantly was often staring off into space or chewing on rocks. Their parents had left them a good size inheritance to live off, so after their mother’s death, the three of them moved around a lot to find some place that felt like home again.They lived spent many years slumming it with Spice Barrens and wealthy merchants. Though Cajun enjoyed these luxuries, he remained charitable and often tried to live by the moral code that their parents raised them with. (This code never mentioned anything about over drinking, horing and exploring ones limits.) However, having lost his parents, friends and feeling of security Cajun fell to great depths numbing his pain more than he’d like to admit. When their family money ran out, the boys began looking for work in various occupations due to their (2 out of 3) good educations, wide array of skills and eccentric interests. During their travels Cajun and Elijah continued to hold different beliefs but with lots of alcohol and distractions, they managed to get by fine without fighting. Besides, they both had Brantly to look after. However, while Cajun looked for a job for himself and a simple job that Brantly could do, Elijah was following whispers he had heard about a nearby Kaowka cult. That evening Cajun and Brantly returned home to find Elijah packing his bags with a letter sitting on their kitchen table addressed to Cajun. As Cajun tried to question what Elijah was doing, Elijah brushed off his brother’s advances and told him to read the letter that will explain everything. The letter was full of religious ravings about the Kaowka and forsaking Gor and Vix. Eventually, Cajun got to the part where Eljah forsakes his family for being non-believers and that he had found his true family, the cult that had taken their father’s life. Furious and disgusted with his brother, Cajun quickly gathered his nearby gear and rushed out the door. The letter had mentioned Elijah’s trek up Mnt. Matraz, so nearly delirious he rushed after his brother to stop him from making the last or worst choice of his life. The trek was long and difficult but due to knowing Elijah so well he easily picked up signs of his brothers tracks and followed as quickly as he could. During this trek Cajun continuously prayed for his brother’s safety and his own. After an unknown amount of time, Cajun got an overwhelming urge to stop. Just as he did, he noticed a clearing up head and heard running water. As he creped closely to the brushes edge, he began hearing ritualistic chanting of a small group of men that he could barely make out from this distance. As a hooded figure gestured towards another to drink from the water, Cajun noticed that the one, now approaching the water, was his younger brother. Without even thinking, Cajun bursted into the clearing and shouted for Elijah to stop. The group all turned towards this commotion but before anyone else could act, Elijah shouted to his brother, “Only Kaowl can give us the strength to cleanse this god-forsaken world!” as he drank the water and quickly dropped to the ground with screams of pain. All eyes were on Elijah as his body violently reacts to what he had consumed. Moments later, his body began to transform in front of their eyes. A monsterous naked creature, that was no longer Cajun’s brother, looked up from where he was on his hands and knees, and smiled with a mouth full of sharp fangs. “Come brother, it is your turn to be tested. Grab him!” Without any thought, Cajun dashed the way he had come, hearing footsteps and voices trailing behind him. His mind was distraught with confusion, fear, and anger for what his brother had done, and what he now wants him to do. He had betrayed everything their father had taught them and rejected a lifetime of teachings. With each step he took, his body ached with pain and exhaustion but some sort of inner voice, urged him to keep pushing forward. The only thing that allowed him to think clearly enough to make it down the mnt. Was praying to Gor. The more hatred he felt, the more he prayed, the more pain he felt, the more he prayed. He began to run faster and harder, putting more distance between himself and those pursuing him. He would later reflect that this was one of the first times he had felt the power of god working through him. He increasingly descended down the mountain, faster than any half-fawl should have been capable of. As he approached the house they had been living in for a year now, he saw a large pillar of smoke coming from where he was headed. As Cajun approached his home, he saw more smoke than he did building. Fear rushed over him as thoughts of Brantly being stuck inside or already dead filled his mind. Cajun got as close to the house he could before being stopped by the abundance of heat detering him from the house. He was about to push through the flames when he heard a familiar child-like laugh coming from behind him. Cajun spun around to see his youngest brother Brantly staring up at the fire, missing both his eyebrows and patches of hair that seemed to have been singged off by the fire. “If you’re going in there, will you grab my rock collection?” (piles of random rocks all over his bedroom.) Without responding, Cajun embraced his youngest brother with a big hug thanking god for being so merciful. Taking Brantly by the hand, Cajun explained that they needed to leave right away, Brantly responded like this was a common occurrence. With their few possessions, and Brantly’s ever growing rock collection, the two brothers road off quickly on their horses taking a path Elijah was least likely to predict. (Surprisingly Brantly was pretty good at horse riding. Besides the part of not walking directly behind them, he’s been kicked quite a few times.) While they set up their camp, Cajun asked why/how the house had caught on fire. Showing much determination to eat one of his newly found rocks, Brantly explained that he had spilled (A LOT of) stinky oil (what he calls lamp oil) around the house when he tried “turning on” the lamps in every room because the fire pit was not bright enough. Thinking that he needed more “stinky oil”, Brantly left to go find more outside. Cajun deducted that the fire pit ignited the oil soaked house, thank god Brantly wasn’t inside. “Owe! \*loud biting sounds, “I tried getting to my rock collection, but the house hurt me! I think it wanted to keep my roc… OUCH!” Brantly reeled in pain as he tried again to eat his rock. Cajun noticed somthing interesting about the rock his brother was chewing on. He quickly scanned the ground and held out a flat smooth rock for Brantly. “Here want to trade? This one’s super soft…. And probably tastes better than that one.” Brantly shrugged and traded rocks with his brother. “I see what you mean!” He says as he starts sucking on his new rock. Cajun examined the rock his brother found earlier in the day that was now slightly blemished with teeth marks. After cleaning off layers of saliva, grime and crusted minerals, Cajun identified the “rock” as being a precious gem! Letting out a small chuckle, he looked over to his simple brother who was suckiling on his new rock, fast asleep near the campfire. Cajun laid back after tucking away the gem and tieing up the horses. For a long hard time, Cajun layed silent looking up at the stars, thinking of all that had happened that day, his parents, his brothers, and ultimately religion. Was Elijiah right? Why would the gods let his father be killed like that and lead to his brother joining the group that was responsible? He wrapped his head around all the horrible things that people have done to one another and questioned why neither Gor, Vix or Forseena would stop such heartache and atrocities. Brantly broke this train of thought by subconsciously pulling his rock closer to himself and instantly reseatling. Cajun began thinking of everything that had been good in his life, two loving parents, good health and he at least still had one brother. Before he went to sleep, the last though he remembered before drifting to sleep was his Elijiah’s words, “Come brother, it is your turn to be tested.” That night, Cajun slept restlessly as his brother’s words echoed in his thoughts. His dreams are filled with powerful memories of good and bad times, as if his subconscious was fighting to persuade him into thinking the world is filled with evil while also trying to remind him of the good life has to offer each and every day. He began to understand what persuaded Elijiah to join a cult which focuses only on the hardships of life as a sign of Forseena giving up on us. But in all of these dark thoughts, Brantly eating rocks shown through the darkness of these thoughts, as if the light in the darkness. Until Brantly began to be getting farther and farther away. Cajun began going after the now distant light in a sea of dark thoughts. He didn’t seem to be getting any closer, until he heard Elijiah’s words, but in the inner voice he had heard earlier, “ Come brother, it is your turn to be tested.” As he heard the words he was projectiled towards the light, feeling a sense of greater understanding and determination. Upon awakening in the early morning, Cajun shot awake with a new understanding of life. It is easy to blame the gods, other races, or just about anything for the evil deeds committed in this life, but the true test of a man is not only seeing the goodness/purity in this life but also being able to find the small patches of light in the darkness and helping them shine stronger and brighter no matter how dark it may get. All that is necessary for evil to triumph in this world is for good men to do nothing. Just as Cajun begins to finalize his understanding of this deeper meaning to life, he notices a pulsating glow coming from his father’s Gor necklace. Outloud he states, “This is my time to be tested. I know true darkness, and have felt its endless depths. That is why I understand the importance of being a beacon of light. Shining light in the darkest of places and shining a path for others to follow is my purpose.” As the holy symbol necklace begins to shine brighter, Cajun clenches it in his palm and vows to avenge his family and rid the world of the ever creeping darkness named the Kaowl. The light from the necklace and Cajun speaking begins to unsettle Brantly… until he lets out a loud fart, smiles and falls back to sleep. From their campsite, Cajun leads Brantly to a good monastery he had had come across before and trusted the head priest very well. After some convincing and the special gemstone, the church agreed to take in Brantly as one of their live in workers. Where he will receive shelter, food, and hospitality for doing odd jobs and simple work for the church. Cajun struggled to find the words to explain to Brantly that he needed to stay here while he pursues his life’s ambition of ridding the world of evil and getting vengeance for his family by putting an end to the corrupted Kaowka. However, as Cajun was thinking of how to explain to his youngest brother, Brantly resembles a chipmunk with a mouth full of nuts. Cajun yells, “Brantly! Pace yourself! Remember what happened last time?!” Instantly Brantly spits out a mouthful of rocks. “Oh yea, I almost died.” he replied with a smile. As Cajun began to reconsider his decision to abandon his simple minded brother, his friend who is the head of the monastery reasures Cajun as he guides Brantly to a place with less rocks. As Cajun rides off to confront his future he looks back one last time to see his youngest brother with a big grin and giving him an enthusiastic wave. Cajun begins traveling the areas to learn more about Kaowka and the cults. He swore his vengeance would be a holy one and he would protect all that he could from these unholy monstrosities. Traveling the continent, tracking down a cult not well known to the public was not only a difficult task but an expensive one. Cajun was forced to make a compromise, it was unjust to just pursue the evil that has hurt him the most, and found himself taking on odd jobs as an Urban Bounty Hunter to pay for his studies and travels. His guidelines were fairly simple, he would only hunt down evil creatures no matter the race or species. He would not turn down a request based on who made it but was able to turn down anything that did not serve the greater good of most people. Along one of his first visits to a city where he had asked about a Kaowka cult presence, he bought a bird like beak mask that he thought was very cool and would help hide his identity, while on his hunts. Worse case scenario, someone could learn of his brother Brantly’s wearabouts and use it against him or even hurt him. This occupation gave him a lot of freedom to learn what he could about the Kaowka cults as well as do some good for people. He worked with both members of the kingdom's royal guards and even criminal empire leaders, because everyone has a monster problem every now and then. Cajun gained many connections with people on both sides of the law. After defeating a turtle like monster terrorising the people of Mosa, he was making a shield of the turtle shell (which responsible for 7 children deaths). During this lengthy process, he heard from a loyal companion that a group of adventurers are seeking to stop the moonborn (well known Kaowka affiliate) from bringing upon a world of kaowka. Cajun must help them and fulfill his vow of vengeance. In order to do so, he traveled with the Spice Barren’s soldiers and a young “future” Sultin named Uriel to see about these intriguing adventurers.
