Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Kairu Zahkar was born in a small coastal village. Kairu has always loved being near the water, he could stare out at the rolling waves for hours, and he found the sound of the waves crashing against the shore soothing as well as the salty sea air. Anyone who has seen Kairu would of never guessed he was from the small village. Kairu was named after his grandfather, he was a very mighty warrior, although Kairu had never met him, he was always fascinated by the stories of his grandfather's adventures, his mother would often tell him the stories before going to sleep when he was a small child. Kairu did not aspire to be a warrior like his grandfather was, Kairu had simply wanted to become a fisher, like so many others from the village and make a living off the sea. Kairu had always lived alone with his mother in a small house on the side of the village closer to the ocean. He and his mother had scraped along on almost nothing in the village, although his mother tried her hardest to support them, there wasn't always food on the table every evening. When Kairu was about 16 his father, who had been gone for a long time, had mysteriously returned, he was a drunken mess. He was very angry and was yelling at his mother about something. Then his father did something unexpected, he had took a dagger and stabbed Kairu’s mother. His father then turned on him. Kairu had killed his father in self defense; it was the only thing Kairu could do, but the guards were soon hurrying towards to the house to see what was happening, and the scene they saw was Kairu standing over his dead father and mother with a bloody knife in hand. Kairu was captured, and was going to be transported to a city to be executed, he could not recall the name of the city. Somehow, he had managed to escape the caravan although, in the night while they were all sleeping, the guard who tied his bonds was very incompetent at his job and he managed to loosen the knot until he freed himself. His first year on the run was very hard, he did not know how to hunt or get food for himself and almost died several times in the wilderness, only sheer luck of finding food to steal from passing travelers had supported him during these times. Kairu had taught himself how to use his bow to hunt animals for food, as well as the four daggers he has concealed in his armor because of this, he can now hunt for his own food.
Kairu is very cautious all the time. It is very hard for Kairu to trust anyone and because of this, alot of people find him very unappealing. Kairu is alright with this though, as he does not usually encounter anyone in the wilds, and if he does, he usually runs away in case they might recognize him. Kairu can be very paranoid sometimes, and will often catch himself looking over his shoulder. It is because Kairu has been on the run for what seems like forever that he is very cautious and untrusting of almost anyone he meets. Kairu is very depressed almost all the time, the loneliness sometimes affecting him. Sometimes, Kairu feels as if the greif of his mother’s death and his loneliness will consume him, and he will fall into darkness. Often in Kairu's dreams he will see his father's eyes, as the life faded away from them, and feel again the blood on his hands, renewing the guilt he has of killing another living person. Kairu does not tell anyone of his past or lies about it because he feels guilty and is afraid of telling anyone.
Your characters ambitions: Kairu hopes that one day he can convince the authorities without getting himself killed that he only killed his father, and that it was in self defense.
Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do? Kairu would prefer to stay hidden, and shoot both the bandits in the back from the shadows. If the elf doesn't seem to be in any danger of being killed though, Kairu would rather not get involved. Either way, Kairu would not show himself to the elf or bandits.
Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer? Kairu would be disguised if he was in a city, but he would reply, "I would like to buy some new arrows for my bow, how much would you like for 20 arrows?" If there is any guards nearby he will turn down the man's offer of business and immediately leave, to avoid being caught.
