Nikoli Klaus
Nikoli the Red
Nikoli the Red was a legend whispered among the tall pines and ancient oaks of the north woods. He was known as the traitor to his people who had spent many years living alone amidst the wilderness, his existence a testament to the dark fortunes of Kah'Ri. But Nikoli's story didn't begin in the woods; it started in tragedy.
As a young child, Nikoli was abandoned by his parents, left to the mercy of the wild creatures that roamed the northern forests. However, fate had a different plan for him. Instead of being devoured by the beasts, he was found by a group of small fey, delicate beings with an affinity for the natural world. These gentle creatures took pity on the helpless child and decided to raise him as one of their own.
Under their tutelage, Nikoli learned the secrets of the forest. He became adept at tracking animals, identifying edible plants, and navigating the dense undergrowth. He grew up surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature, forming a deep connection with the land that would shape the rest of his life.
As he matured, Nikoli's curiosity began to stir. Despite his contentment with his fey family, he couldn't shake the longing to explore beyond the boundaries of his woodland home. Tales of a nearby village called Kah'Ri reached his ears, whispered by passing travelers and the occasional wandering adventurer. The village seemed like a world apart from the tranquil solitude of the forest, and Nikoli found himself drawn to it with an irresistible urge to discover what lay beyond the trees.
