Rather short and wimpy for an half-orc, KUVAN is the son of a retired adventurer and her former lover, a wizard associate of her who turned out to be so evil the whole party had to put him down.
Since his childhood years the boy has shown a great affinity to arcane magic, a bond so strong that he was able to cast minor magical effects before even learning how to walk properly. He grew up in a secluded farm in the outskirts of Cassomir, the "retirement" his mother earned after a long life of adventures, but moved to the coastal city when he was just ten winters old, to learn how to harness his powers thanks to the teachings of a—definitely not evil—relative of his deceased father.
After some years of quite boring theoretical lessons with his mentor the now grown man decided it was time to embark on an adventure himself and start practicing his trade instead of grow moldy with the nose deep in old books. Luckily he found an employ quite fast, as a guard for a merchant shipment to Wispil. He doesn't plan to stick for the whole travel though: he's using the job only as a way to make some money and get comfort in numbers while on his way to Belhaim, a town on the road where a friend of his mother lives, a wizard by the name of Balthus Hunclay. The woman hasn't heard about his friend for quite a long time and asked her son to go check him out, and maybe stay a while with him to learn something more about magic.
