About Izhu'al
Background
It is said that the merchants of the Planes would do anything for the right price, even sell their own children. In the case of Izhu'al, it is true. One of the sons of a rich efreeti slaver and of a human courtesan, Izhu'al began to manifest his father's heritage while he was still young and started to produce flames from his own body. At the age of 7, his father sold him along with gems and magical items to a pompous noble, that wanted to add Izhu'al to his collection of exotic slaves and planar creatures.
The young ifrit endured the life of a house pet for another 7 years, waiting for the moment to exact revenge on his father and a good opportunity to flee from the merchant. This opportunity came just as Izhu'al started to feel strong enough to do it. While he was alone with the noble he killed him with his bare hands. His master's body burst into flames as he punched him to death, and so his whole palace started burning. Izhu'al left and wandered the street of the planar cities for another 7 years, living the life of a beggar and getting into numerous fight due to his hot temperament.
Then, after taking a particularly nasty beating from a group of thugs he angered, he was found almost dead in an alley by an old lizardfolk monk called Koros the Watcher. The wandering monk cured him at his monastery, a place hidden in the distant reaches of the Astral Plane, where who were once thieves and murderers have a chance to redeem themselves and start a new life, reaching illumitation by learning the value of tranquility, compassion and pacifism. Izhu'al trained here for another 7 years, among with companions of many different races and origins. He realized that the only true way to achieve his revenge was to actually forgive his father, that the suffering he had been through wasn't worth taking another life, that his rage had to be transformed into self discipline
But this didn't last. A group of extraplanars pirates showed up at the monastery, demanding all of its few possessions. The monks didn't do anything to stop them, knowing that every battle that can be avoided is another step towards the true illumination. But Izhu'al wasn't able to stop his old blood taking advantage of him. Trying to scare them one of the pirates away, he accidentally killed him, triggering a terrible reaction from the rest of the crew. The pirates killed every single one of the non violent monks within the monastery, and forced him to watch while they held him in chain. When the killing blow, a sword through the stomach, finally came, Izhu'al welcomed it as a fitting end for his violent life.
It has been 7 years since he's dead.
