## History

### Book 2: Parents

Mommy One (**Anala Thakur**) grew up as royalty in the City of Brass on the Plane of Fire, but ran away from home to make a life for herself in the Khaldun Dynasty as an anthropologist. She eventually moved to the Nation of Monsters to further her academic studies in the **Université Merveilleuse**. It was there she met Daddy, and they had a bunch of sex! That's what makes babies, by the way. Don't believe the stories of the stork. While there, she made friends with a guy named Hrungnir, who invited her to become the Spymaster of Pakon Uzg. This caused her a lot of stress, and she eventually developed an Esoterum Addiction while pregnant with me. Don't worry, I forgave her for turning me into a crack baby; besides, I now have latent psychic ability! As far as I'm aware, I'm the first Psychic Crafter in Mythgate, so that's pretty cool. Oh, also, she tried to suicide bomb herself into a super evil metal lich woman called 'Mother' while I was in her belly. That explains these molten scars! Cool, right? Me, fighting evil from the womb! Anyway, I was born not long after that incident. Hooray!

Father (**Gereon Baldurin**) grew up as part of a half-giant tribe that were descendants of some really super evil fire giants back in...I think it was the Barbarian Kingdoms? They were slaves for a super long time, and eventually they were given a chance to prove themselves worthy to be free of their shackles; The First Blade tossed down a sword at their feet, and told them to fight back. They did, and they kicked some serious butt! Dad in particular is one of Gorum's Champions on Mythgate, leads a whole army of Iron Warriors, and is currently King Regent of Pakon Uzg. He took up the position after both the Philosopher King, Kalgor Blacktusk, and the second-in-line for succession, the Big Takka Hrungnir Beleg, bit the dust. As in, they died. Dad used to have more color in his hair, but being a ruler in such a lawless place has taken a toll on him. He has a big responsibility, which means he has to stick around in the material world. Whenever he slept, I'd visit him in his dreams!

Mommy Two (**Asiyah Nejem**), or as I sometimes like to call her, Mammy, met Mommy One waaaaay back before Mommy One moved to Pakon Uzg. They were just good friends, and bonded over some charity work that Mommy Two was doing at the time. She has always been about that kind of life, especially since she is a worshipper of the Prismatic Ray, just like me! I wonder where I got the idea from....hehe. Anyway, she's a superheroine who was born in the Khaldun Dynasty, but managed to find herself living in Vinland after discovering she was one of the Chosen during a daring escape! She fled with a bunch of refugees into the nation of refugees, led by the good king Leonard Moore. Fast forward a loooong time, and eventually Mommy One called Mommy Two from Nirvana, feeling broken and beaten, and needed help. So that's what Mommy Two did! She helped life Mommy One up long enough for her to find her own strength again. Oh, and she stuck around in the heavens to help raise me too!

### Book 3: Adventure!

Once I was old enough, I snuck away from my peaceful little cottage nestled in the fields of lavender and lilies in the heavens, and made my way to the Material Plane; specifically, I wanted to head to Mythgate to see the place where all my parents grew up. A baby bird has to leave the nest and spread its wings, or else it's just dinner. The Iron Lich, a crazy evil metal undead woman who goes by the name 'Mother', told my mom she was gonna snatch me up one day. I have to be tough enough to punch her head off when we meet, or I'm as good as dead! Maybe worse! She might flay me and turn my corpse into a siccatite monstrosity or something. So gross! I could just hide away at home, but that's not what I'm meant to do. I'm supposed to spread love and joy and beauty wherever I go. I'm going to make a great adventurer, and save a lot of people!

I **First Arrived** in Mythgate in the city of **Jut Shakamb**, just outside the **Université Merveilleuse** on the 13th Abadius, Year 28 of the Age of Might. I ran into the Violinist, **Noa Astray Hawking**, and we performed an impromptu duet together. I told her I was looking for my dad, and she pointed me in the wrong direction! I took a boat to the **Dragalla Alliance**, making my way to **Fort Blacktusk** where she mentioned he might be. There was a bit of a miscommunication there, but that allowed me to be hired on my first adventure in a neighboring nation, Myandra! Together with my fellow adventurers, **Alden Thistlewood**, **Rowdy**, **Ernie**, **Prince Rehgar Blacktusk**, **Timrek**, **Sunny Sarsaparilla**, and **Zerith Alwurt**, we headed in to a scary place called the **Nightwoods** to **investigate some disappearances**, and maybe rescue some paladins. From there, the number of adventures I've been a part of have been amazingly diverse and plentiful.

## Appearance

Standing tall amongst the other humanoid races at six-foot two-inches in height, or 187.95 centimeters if you're not a rube, I'm actually quite short for my lineage of Efreeti and Fire Giants. I'm also not a beefcake bodybuilder shape like mom and dad, who are both notorious for being bulky and angry. I take more after Mammy, who has a more lithe build; trained by the Agathion Warrior Poets of Nirvana, I'm packing some power in my arms and legs, and I move with the grace of a gymnast or ballerina!

## Aspirations

I never had any specific ideas in mind when I decided to start adventuring. I just knew I had to become strong enough to live up to all the mentors and living legends I have in my life, and to make some legends of my own. If you know anything about my parents, their friends, or their enemies, then you might have figured I have a loooooong way to go before I make a name for myself. These people shape nations, doom civilizations, and save entire worlds from peril! Right now, as of writing this on the 8th of Arodus, Year 28 of the Age of Might, I'm about to head into a swamp lair of some evil creatures called 'The Hive' to try and rescue some abducted merchants and adventurers. Wish me luck!

## Fighting Style

I started my training when I was really young, about four years old. I liked the all the dancing all the petitioners and visitors and natives did in and around mister Hrungnir's resting place. As it turns out, he too was a dancer when he was alive, and learned to incorporate kicks and punches and wrestling into his movements, training himself to fight with flair. As I watched the performers, I began to mimic their movements, learning to sway like a tree in the wind. It wasn't long before a Leonal took notice, and with the permission of my moms, began to show me how to use those movements in a more practical fashion.

**Sifu Hamza Lee** showed me more than how to dance and spin; I learned the ways of a martial art that mister Hrungnir took some inspiration from, one that is apparently actively taught in the nation of Athreya in Mythgate! I practiced body hardening with Iron Shirt, Iron Fist, and Iron Palm. I practiced Animal Styles with Tiger, Dragon, and Snake. I even learned some exotic martial arts from other parts of the multiverse, unknown to Mythgate; Something that translates to "The Science of Eight Limbs", or as I like to call it, Spider Knees! I use this to kick trees in half and smash through marble slabs with my fists!

Knowing I needed more than punches and kicks to win the day, I picked up some fancy-schmancy weapons that the monks practiced with. I'm not nearly as good with these, but I can still crack a whip, toss a chakram, and spin a battle poi! What's more, I also learned how to shoot guns. Crazy, right? Not something you might expect when you first meet me, but I can hit a bullseye from one-hundred paces with the proper gun! Pew-pew!

Combine all this martial arts with some technical training, tinkering, and enchanting, and suddenly you have someone who can build her own grenades, forge her own swords, and imbue her weapons and armor with potent psychic magic! I might prefer cooking over swordplay, but that doesn't mean I can't hold my own. As Sifu Lee says, "She who knows how to inflict upon others an incredible violence but chooses to keep sheathed her blade is capable of performing more good than a woman who has never known the conflict of a cutting edge."
