Biography (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add three references to the server lore): (where does your character come from?; where have they traveled to?; what year were they born in? et cetera.) Bastien never knew his real parents. He was adopted by a family of Kai that lived on the islands south of Asul. His earliest memories consisted of him cooking for his family and chopping down trees with his two other brothers to help them get by. His dad left for the market one day when he was little, never to return home. They searched for answers for what could've possibly happened, but never figured it out. He was presumed dead by many of the locals. Still, Odysseus found himself on the front steps every night for quite possibly a year, waiting for his father to come home. His mother would always beg for him to come inside. Not losing hope, though, he always proclaimed to his mother that today would be the day. Sadly, that day never came. He tried following his father's footsteps and became a trader at just 15. He was very good at it, but become tired of it. It just didn't satisfy him. The rest of the time he was at home, he continued to gather lumber with his brothers. Bastien grew very close to his brothers (both younger than him) after his father's disappearance. He knew he had to be there for them, trying to be a father figure for them. They did a lot together besides cutting down trees. They loved to swim, draw, making carvings out of the wood they had leftover, among other things. Out of all these activities, though, they probably enjoyed swimming the most. No matter what, they always seemed to make time for it every day. They frequented a pretty dangerous area, notorious for drownings, as sinkholes were everywhere. Their mom knew about them going there and the dangers of the area and always warned them over and over again to NEVER go there. They didn't care though, they were having too much fun there. Well, one day, the mom's worst nightmare had come true. She had been sitting at home relaxing, when all of a sudden, she heard extremely violent knocking at the door. She answered the door, to be told that her sons were out swimming at the very spot she told them not to go to. Worst of all, a violent storm has rolled in not too long ago. She rushed down to spot, only to find out one of her sons had drowned, and one other being badly injured. Bastien made it out unscathed but traumatized. After that day, he never wanted to step foot in water again. A year later, at 18, he left home to wander the land. He had to get out of the place that caused him so much pain. He told his mother he'd be back. He didn't know when though. He figured he let his mother down so horribly. He felt so much guilt after that day of swimming. He knew he had to set out and make a name for himself, or figure out some way to make it up to his mother, prove to him he's not a screw-up. After all the years of swinging axes, he figured he could try his hand at fighting. He traveled the lands looking for work before landing in the training grounds of New Jornheim. Here he honed his combat skills after some years of vigorous training. He eventually left there as well, to once again roam the lands. He decided to seek out people in need of cooks. He went and settled in Valkyria for about 2 years, cooking for whoever would pay him. Here he learned some exotic recipes for those who were bored of their everyday meals. Also took advantage of the opportunity and got out and hunted, reminding him of some good memories of his childhood. After some difficulties with a family, whose husband thought he was trying to have his way with his wife, he fled the town.
