## Biography

#### The Beginings

Shohen is an Elf who was born 173 years ago. He was born into a big city full of the wisest elves, but wisdom doesn’t equal power. They were hiding from their attackers — the vitreous humans —in their proud mountains and lain devious traps in hopes that it would compensate for their poor fighting prowess. His people were being hunted by humans for their knowledge and rare artefacts that would make humans the most dominant race in the world. Shohen trained to try and help his friends and family;he wanted to protect his people, and see that no harm come to them. Everything was going well until that day. He could remember the day with vivid clarity, as if it were happening right in front of him.

It was a day like any other. The shroomlights of their endless caverns shone overhead from the stalactites above, vines crawling downwards as of to discover what lay at the bottom of the abyss. He was on a raised plateau covered in the soft sheen of the morning dew on the grass, alongside the rest of his fighting class. As they assumed their sparring positions against one another, there was an impromptu trembling of the earth around them, a faint rumbling as though the mountains were growling in fury. Then, a sudden bright light; that's when he peered through the great sun’s rays to see the banner of the Humans.

Shohen made his way out of the mountain and managed to escape with his best friend. With a fleeting glance, he fled from the scene of the genocide of the people that he had thought he would protect. He couldn’t. He loathed himself for that. He still does.

Him and his good friend ran till they reached the nearby forest. They were lost, their whole city, all they knew, all they learned from when they were little- gone. They did the only thing that they could, started walking.

### The nomads

One day, while Shohen was going through the forest, he found a small camp, what looked like an active and confortable area, they decided to settle in nearby to wait for the person that built this place. And after a little time waiting, they saw it, a group of 4-5 people walking towards the hut like building, carrying bits of animal meat. Shohen was scared of them but, je just went for it, he introduced himself, the group of nomads were actually very kind. After about 3 days of living together shohen and the nomads decided to incorporate Shohen to their nomad group.

### The end?

Shohen was walking in the frightening woods of Ore and Lore, was trying to find a good place for them to settle. That's when he saw a figure that he will never forget, those white clothes and the sharp dagger. A person swiftly made their way behind Shohen's back and that's when he felt the most physical pain he has ever gone through. With a bayonet in his neck, he had no choice but to stay there and die. He prayed to the undead god before dying, a hopeless action, or so he thought.

### His days as a marauder

His prayer to the undead king had been successful, Shohen was at present, alive. He was in the middle of an ocean, he had lost everything when he died. All his food, armor, swords, artifacts, and his most prized possession, his trident. He found a small island and that would soon become his secret home. Because of his prayers to the great undead god, there was a weird feeling once he was back to earth, he had a sudden urge to sacrifice every thing to the god, he soon ran out of everything, but he still had to please the undead god and always give something. That day, Shohen started killing, he started with a few fishermen, then traders, nomads and soon he started raiding cities and giving everything to the undead god.
