About Raxus Firebrand

Raxus Is not your typical human. He was the subject of a horrible experiment conducted by an evil wizard in his secret lab in the Crown of the World. The "Planestalk Wizard" experimented with binding the souls of extraplanar creatures to earthly bodies, essentially trapping them on this plane and commanding them to do his bidding. With Raxus, the experiment went awry and he retained some of his human sentience, the parts that matter anyways. Now he carries the blood of the Phoenix and has a strange connection to the natural world. At the age of twelve, using his Sylvan/Fey bloodline powers, he escaped.
Raxus had spent his entire waking life in a cage, so the outside world was a strange place. He traveled through the wilderness wary of other people, always on the run from his former captors.
Along the way, a lone wolf had followed him and eventually befriended him, forming a bond closer than friendship. He named him Ghost, as a symbol of how he views himself to the civilized world.
As Raxus grew up he eventually found himself visiting towns and cities practicing fitting in. Not wanting to share his past, he became very adept at lying to people and charming them to meet his own ends.
Thus he formed his personality: an outsider, scorning laws and rules but never harming the innocent. He sees laws as the means the rich and powerful use enslave the common folk and protect their own misdeeds. Politicians, police and the guise of "nobility" all fit together in some twisted machine used to keep the balance of power in their greedy and evil hands. (sounds kinda familiar, huh?)
Originally scoffing at the idea of the Pathfinder Society, a group of do-gooders collecting artifacts and knowledge for some (metaphorical) masturbatory purposes, he learned of factions within that held their own ideals. The Andoran faction, dedicated to the abolition of slavery and tyranny appealed to him. Never forgetting his past, he joined at the age of nineteen as a pledge in the hopes he will get the chance to wreak vengeance on the Planestalk Wizard and all those like him. He believes all people should be free, and if someone tells him otherwise he crush them.
Raxus and Ghost, hero of the people, bringer of doom and bane of the law. Freedom for all, even if that means killing those in the way. Womanizing alcoholic, adventurer, tattooed freak, and sailor extraordinaire. Golarion is his playground.
