Stormy Smoking Mountain

They say I have a story for every occasion, but I've also got an arrow for every threat.

We are living the story of a millenium, perhaps the greatest story ever told in our world.

— Stormy

Childhood

I grew up on Kaldroy, one of the far north Tabaxi islands—a dormant volcano that we called Rysen. My family were hunters and trackers and we loved telling the old tales around the geothermal heater at night.
My father, Landren, says that when I was born, a seer had a vision of our peaceful home, under the light of a half moon shining on the sea. Rysen erupted and split the islands of our kingdom in two. Some thought it nonsense. But then the earthquakes kept increasing, and the mountain creatied large lava flows like clockwork. I vaguely remember people saying something about being "renewed", but I didn't understand it at the time.
When I was 7, King Dub and his brother, Trun, ensured everyone evacuated to other islands, and they fell doing thier best to protect our people. Queen Mara, late in her pregnancy, was so sticken over the loss her mind broke and she went into labor that day. It almost took her life and she hasn't not been strong enough in mind or body to lead since. Our seneschal, Hobin, stepped in to help rule until he deems the Queen stable enough or Prince Kari is ready to take up the crown.

The day we left in our dragonhead catamarans, no one was able to return to fetch the body of our king and his brother.
Shortly after we landed on an island to the south, rumors flew saying the seneschal shoved our good king and his brother into the fast flowing magma in a grab for power. But the Queen, even in her unhinged state, swore it wasn't true. The controversy split our people and many families.
My father and the seneschal's son, Taugen, lead half of us to the East. The seneschal, Queen, and their follwers to the West.
Father taught me all the stories and songs of our people, so that even though we became scattered, we still have a heritage. He even made me a bodhran drum.
The year I turned 15, our tribe asked for volunteers to hunt for a new homeland before the tremors and poisonous smoke could destroy all our islands. My boyfriend, Taugen, gave me a bronze arm ring to remember him by.
Those we meet, dismissing the reason for our exodus, think my people are only greedily grabbing for land. But they've never tried to set paws on hot lava nor seen their people sick from the fumes! My home is gone, my kingdom split, and we still have no true king.

How I Became a Ranger

We were scouting to the west. I took to the exploring like a fish in water. Every new vista brought a new story, a drawing of plants and animals, or a song to write down and share with my family when I returned. The discoveries kept me pushing farther.
I was the fastest of the group, so I took the inland route. I came across a white Mother Wolf protecting her pups from a deadly viper. While I usually let nature take its course, I felt for those tiny pups. With one shot, I took down the snake.
When the mother wolf collapsed, the little ones were howling for milk. I helped them to her. One pup took a liking to me. He had the most unusual blue-green eyes.
Something inside me clicked that day, and I knew I'd be more than a hunter and singer like my family. I'd be a ranger.

The Next 10 Years

Stormy helps her people settle on the mainland, learning the land and ranger ways.
