Sheridan was discovered by an outrider scout, discarded on a rocky outcropping surrounded by the crashing waves of the sea. The scout took the steaming child back to camp as a gift to the warlord Temogene. As decades were spent dancing for entertainment and dark rituals, the ifrit grew to respect the warlord’s ruthless implementation of his credo: that we are all one people on this plane.
When the warlord died, his sons tore apart his legacy, and Sheridan was left to find his way in a world which did not understand his talents. Years of bodyguard and bouncer jobs which invariably ended in fleeing town have lead Sheridan into despair and ennui, and now he is desperate for the camaraderie of a traveling war band.
