Robin

## Lore

Born to a family of Cala Nath immigrants, Robin grew up in the comfortable simplicity of a stable family life. Her parents always were very grateful for their new home, but also were well aware of the dangers of the paradise that they had relocated. Everyday, they would warn Robin of the dangers towards the center of the tree, how the creator of the tree's wild menagerie of creatures roamed the dense foliage and paths there.

Unfortunately on a supply journey, Robin took a wrong turn and ended up in the thicket of Cala Nath's world tree. Off the beaten path, Robin was scared. Terrified and alone, all the speeches her parents had given her replaying over and over in her head as she creepied along. Suddenly from out of the brush, as if materializing into thin air, appeared a tree wyvern. Baring its sharp fangs and claws, Robin began scurrying away as the beast began to give chase. Her distress began to cloud her judgement as she stepped onto a frail branch. It snapped, and Robin began falling down the branches of the great tree. The wyvern dived down for her, ready to snatch her up in its jaws.

Alerted by her shrill yells of panic, a bird suddenly came to robin's aid and swooped Robin up in her talons, narrowly avoiding the crunch of the wyvern's jaws. The bird clad in golden feathers, dove back into the thicket with Robin, holding on for dear life as the duo plunged straight into the leaves. The bird took a minute to let Robin down and the two shared a moment. Despite no words being passed, they had established a bond longer than their years. This moment was short lived however, as the wyvern had found them and began shredding through the branches that had been hiding them. Together as a team, Robin and her new pet triumphed over the wyvern, trapping it between the vines.

Robin and her new friend make it home, with Robin befriending the bird and naming them Tabryn. With Tabryn by her side, Robin felt much more comfortable going out and facing the dangers of the outside world head on. With Tabryn always down for adventures and general mischief, the duo grew up into an adventurous confident duo, jumping around from branch to branch, fuelled by the adrenaline rush of adventure, acting as heroes from the dangerous creatures and plants on Cala Nath.

When the Arklight's destruction shattered the sky, the faithful of Cala Nath began to hold Zalynx in higher regard. Many touted him as the savior of mortal kind, to be their shining light and god as Cala Nath's apparent immunity to the effects caused many more to flock to Zalynx's side and claim him as the being who would replace the All-Mother. Robin's parents were some of those enthralled by Zalynx during this time of desperation, becoming more and more devout each passing day. Tabryn however, always seemed hesitant and apprehensive around the plant mage himself, something that puzzled Robin as well as her fanatical parents. Robin continued her life as such, the Arklight's abscense of effects causing a sort of lull in Cala Nath. But Robin could've sworn there were less and less people each passing day. She continued her adventures out with Tabryn but couldn't shake the uncomfortable feeling that something was admist. Tabryn's adversion to the apparent savior of the world, Zalynx, helped further this unease.

One day, word of a dangerous new monster from the depths of the undergrowth spreads amongst the citizens of Cala Nath. Retreating into their homes, people stayed locked in doors until the coast was clear. But Robin's parents were nowhere to be found. They wouldn't be out especially with this warning of danger from the jungle, thought Robin. "If anything, they would be indoors right now lecturing me on how Zalynx has everything under control and that this was simply a smear campaign by some non-believers", she thought. More time passed, with no sign of her parents at all. Uncontempt to sit idle while her parents were missing admist the danger, Robin signalled to Tabryn and off they went to investigate.

Diving further into the foliage, Robin and Tabryn set off with a new quest in hand: to vanquish whatever dangers laid within the forest and find their parents.
