Dotted in, Sir!
Uthe has spent four years at the Magaambya Acadamy attempting to demonstrate that her skills are worthy of recognition. Instead, she has been consistantly told that she needs to study more. She needs to focus more. She needs to ... oh, bloody hell, would she put away those damn bells!
At the moment that she felt she would finally achieve aclaim, she was told that she needs more real-world experience. Out there. In the real world. Away from the Academy. Far away from the acadamy. And would she please take those bells with her?
So she has returned to her home village to figure out what might be considered 'Real World Experience'.
Voshi was born into a large family in the city of Murraseth, the daughter of one of the members of the ruling Council of Elect. Voshi spent her childhood with her father, following him around on his trade deals whilst getting into some scrapes along the way. These scrapes were usually started by a misjudged quip that Voshi had said, but she was usually lucky enough to get away scot-free.
Finally the opportunity of a lifetime opened up, a very rich, exceedingly foolish merchant from the north arrived in Murraseth keen to purchase the wonders of the south. Voshi spent an evening with him in a tavern, extolling the virtues of her trading network and by the end of the evening the merchant had promised her a vast fortune for her promised darkwood. Now if only she had some...
Not one to ever let a small detail like that get her down Voshi went to her older sister Zathra, who was always good at the sensible details. A mission to Kibwe was promptly planned, the mission simple. Go to Kibwe, buy darkwood, sell it to the foolish northerner at a hefty profit. Relax with all the cream a cat could wish for. Picking up some old enthusiastic friends for company and excitement on the way, they set off!
Zathra was born in the ancestral catfolk city of Murraseth, the daughter of one of the members of the ruling Council of Elect. In her younger years, she roamed the jungles with a war party, serving as the group's field medic and tending to those injured in battles against demons and other dark denizens. One one such expedition, the group came upon an abandoned temple to the god Erastil. It was there that the god blessed Zathra and filled her mind with oracular abilities.
Zathra was able to hear the spirits of the amurrun ancestors that lived in the jungle long ago. They whispered guidance and urged her to protect her extended family, the catfolk community at large. But sometimes their suggestions became demands, threatening to overwhelm the young shaman. Still, she embraced her newfound abilities and devoted herself to her people and her community.
When her younger sister Voshi, a merchant and trader, came to her asking for help on a mission to Kibwe, Zathra could not refuse. Thus, alongside two other catfolk, they made their way to the human city, little knowing of the great adventure that awaited them...
Saylarya was not born in Murraseth like most catfolk in the area, though she was brought there when she was very young and grew up none the wiser as to the location of her birth. Through her youth she was raised along with several others together in a group, without a specific mother or father to call her own.
As she grew older, a tale was told to her that she had been born in the north, in a strange city called Anuli. It was there that she had been secreted away as rumors swirled that she was not catfolk, but a rakshashi reborn anew. It was thought best case, if she could be raised with rock-solid virtues and kept on a straight path, perhaps even if the tales were proven true that she would refuse to descend into chaos and darkness. Worst case, a young catfolk would be saved from the lizardfolk and reunited with her kind and set on a path of righteousness.
Several of those that raised her were trained in various disciplines of martial arts, and so she was raised practicing and perfecting the art to prepare her for the day that she may be called for to put her training to use.
Of course, that day never came. Growing increasingly bored of her current life, she had come to overhear that several others that she was somewhat familiar with had decided to take a trip to Kibwe. Seeing this as an an excuse to escape her current life and explore the unknown, she convinced herself she needed to protect these would be travelers against the unknown dangers ahead. Whether they wanted help or not, she was going and no one could stop her.
