## Backstory

Hundal was born as the son of a Human and Elf, making him a Half-Elf; his parents cherished him. He doesn't remember a lot about his parents but he knew that.

His mother, Rhavonne, was seen as foreign. The elves didn't enjoy the prescence of people without elf-blood flowing through their veins. As tensions grew between her and the tribe, she was cast out. "Follow your heart," were the last words she spoke to baby Hundal.

Hundal lived his toddler years in the Hundelle tribe. It was a hard endeavour to take care of little Kaitun, but his father persevered. Without him, Hundal wouldn't have survived, as the tribe did not warp an eye on him. Hundal was seen as impure in the tribe, which made it hard for his father to keep him.

As time progressed, it became obvious that Hundal wasn't going to spend his teen years in the tribe. As he grew older and gained knowledge of the world, the aversion of the tribe grew. They called him Chkatan Hundal out of disrespect and distanced him from the tribe. His father knew it was urgent to teach Kaitun how to survive. He taught his son about plants, shelter and the art of hunting.

He knew that Hundal wouldn't be able to remember everything at that age. He proceeded to switch to teaching basic skills as writing and reading. In the meanwhile he wrote a small pocketbook of what he was trying to teach before. Whenever Hundal would need something, he would be able to find it in this book.

The time had arrived; Hundal's father couldn't procrastinate any longer. Hundal was banished at the age of 8 and had to survive in the wild with the aid of his father's book. In his first years, he made do with foraging, but as he grew older, he started to dabble in the Art of Hunting.

Once in a while he stumbled upon a settlement where he set up camp for a while. In his early years, people would have mercy with him, but as he grew older he had to use his long fingers. He used these settlements to stock up, but whenever he did, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He knew stealing wasn't right and made do with the bare minimum. Since then, he has always had a disgust for people who do for wealth.

He spent fourty years as a nomad and kept learning new things which he added to his father's notebook. During these periods he mostly hung around with animals, as he had grown paranoïd of humanoids.

## Story

### Life as Nomad

During one of his learning expeditions, he stumbled upon a burning village with goblin camps on the edges. He decided to investigate it and called it Mission Green Goblin. During this mission, he worked together with some animals: Wilkins (Dog), Smittens (Cat), Fiddles (Donkey), Rasuza (Dog) and Kat (Cat). He found some buildings around, but no real clues of any Goblins. He wrote his findings down in a diary.

### Life in the Sakari Order

During his investigations, he was found by Wilhelm, the leader of the Sakari Order; who promised him futher investigations when he would join. Hundal proceeded to accept the offer and joined the Sakari Order where he documented . The world started to change shortly after: meteors became a common thing and nature stopped.

The goblin investigation promise was never fulfilled as there were now bigger things to investigate. Plant growth is an important matter in terms of survival. Without, Hundal had to make use of his hunting proficiency more as time progressed.

An expedition towards the north of Nindal came into the planning of the Sakari Order. It was during this expedition where Hundal began to talk to a couple: Teri and Niko. Hundal lost track of Wilhelm and decided to stick with those two; that's when a meteor storm approached. The bunch decided to take shelter in a cave, which has become a big part of Hundal's life. They went to a big tree, and that is where Hundal left the expedition.

Back in Avisburg, life became boring when Wilhelm went missing. To spend his time, Hundal formed Hundal's Horse Homes; where he analysed the Sakarian horses and took care of them. During this period, he got acquainted with Ashari Oakenheart who owned a mule called Fenton. Hundal targetted this mule to be the first one to be analysed. Ashari was against that, but after hanging around Ashari's house for some time, he did it anyways. This caused some people to suspect him for beastiality, but that faded away after a while. After some weeks, he moved out of the house he was given and built a small lodge next to Ashari's house. The grass began to grow again shortly after.

### Life at the Gatesmen

#### Member

Shortly after, Ashari invited him to The Gatesmen. There he was told about the mission: digging away a 1001x1001 perimiter; thus Hundal started to work. He dug away some ground, drained all of the rivers and chopped down a reasonable amount of trees. The last two mostly being due to a punishment he was given for protecting the Gatesmen Tower from Harry, who was intruding.

There, Hundal became good friends with Ghostbelio with whom he worked away, but after some time Ashari passed away due to a failed ritual and Ghostbelio left The Gatesmen. Hundal hadn't seen Ashari for weeks before the ritual and hasn't since.

After Ashari's passing, the leadership was transferred to The Harbinger, but Hundal never saw this black pig as his rightful leader, as he thought Ashari was still alive. The Harbinger disappeared too, and with the two previous leaders missing in action, Hundal took the position as leader of the Gatesmen after finding a message. With it, he found a mysterious crystal, which he put inside of the ender bag which came with it. Whispers started to echo through his head asking him to join.

#### Leader

##### The First Months

Ghostbelio came back with the company of Niko and an unknown person, but not on good terms. They attacked Hundal, leaving him severely wounded for unknown reasons. When they left, Hundal patched up his wounds. While doing that, he heard footsteps in the main hall of the tower. He took a look and found the young, unknown, white-haired person who came with the two attackers. He used all his strength and went to talk with the boy who was appreciating the tower. He managed to lead him to the dungeons where he asked for explanations. The boy, Ozen, explained that he went with them because he was looking for something to be a part of. Hundal grew fond of Ozen and asked him if he wanted to become a Gatesman, which the boy accepted. Along with Ozen, they were now the two remaining Gatesmen, as everyone had left after the passing of Ashari.

Hundal decided to stop the dig and divided the capital project into smaller, more enjoyable steps. The first projects being cleaning up and improving existing builds. Together they transformed the tower into an impressive castle and fixed up the basement of the tower.

During the cleanup, Gatesmen joined and left. One of them being Ghostbelio, he was on a quest to become human once again and became an undead by once again connecting to his body. He ended up being murdered. Ozen grew and became a worse person after time, which Hundal did not want. At some point Ozen became too psychopatic, which caused him to be kicked out by Hundal with the promise of him being able to come back once he had changed his ways.

Another problem was the crystal taking control over Hundal. The whispers became louder and louder. Hundal couldn't ignore them anymore and was willing to go in on them, doing what his head was telling him. In his bed he had a faint memory, "Follow your heart," he remembered. This was followed by another voice whispering in his head, "Follow your heart, Kaitun. You can choose your own path now." Hundal took the crystal out of his bag and threw it into the End Gate which has been sitting in the basement for ages. His head became silent and his heart glowed, he became aware of another feeling: magic.

The End Gate was sending out strong waves of magic which made him feel a flow of energy. He studied them and learned how to use them for movement. With his knowledge, he created The Gatesmen Castle Elevator and the Gatesmen Castle Gate.

New people came knocking on that Gate: Arrow, Elyon, Tulip... As well as some familiar faces asking for forgiveness. Niko and Ozen rejoined the Gatesmen and are becoming good people under the teachings of Hundal.

##### Rising Tensions

A couple of months later, Ozen killed Avie by accident which caused him to be depressed. Although Hundal doesn't like what he did, he still helps Ozen through it as he has experienced depression of all types himself. When Sten and Aisha intruded, Hundal was up for protecting Ozen by lying, but a contract he was forced to sign would have been the cause of his demise. The negotiations went harm-free, but tensions had risen between Hundal and those two, they wouldn't be touching Ozen over Hundal's corpse.

Not too long after, Aisha came to apologise, while Sten wrote a trading contract for a spear Hundal had acquired. This got him his Chinmoku No Shi back, and trust slowly began to grow again. They were not allies, but they could stand each other more or less.

That was until the coronation of the Ashaiian Queen, where Sten went insane and slashed whoever he could to grab whatever amount of gold he could get his hands on. With a pierced back, Hundal considered the attack the last straw; he lost all of his trust in Sten. It was a long and painful walk home, where he, with a lot of effort, healed up again. Not too long ago, his protective staff was stolen, wherefor he had to purchase a new restorator. He got help from a new Gatesmen called Alcaeus Galadher, who got taught the lesson of never putting all of your trust into a person.

## Appearance

Hundal is known for being bald and having prominent facial features. His mustache was iconic, but has now become part of a beard he has grown that shows his wiseness. His eyebrows make him look serious.
His outfit exists out of a brown coat, greyish trousers and brown leather shoes.

He smells half as bad as humans with a quarter rosemary.
