Personal history
Seeker was created to seek out the enemies of Melren, a powerful archmagi. Primarily used for assassinations, intimidation, and infiltrating organizations to steal rare materials and artifacts. Seeker executed his orders without question or hesitation. After every successful mission Melren's investment in them would be proven and they would be upgraded with a new rare item or trained in a new skill.
As missions exposed them to more and more of the world and its peoples they no longer blindly obeyed but sought to interact with people and understand them. They turned from a servant into a fully sentient being and while they still loved and obeyed Melren they began exercising them own discression while working. During a hunt for a particularly powerful enemy of Melren, they spared the life of the targets son and it came back to bite them. They was followed back from the meeting spot and Melren during them next mission allies of the recently killed target as well as a collection of mages and nobles he had made enemies of combined their forces and stormed The Weeping Peak.
Though Melren himself was powerful and Conrad Bristlebark, Gimblekanks and June were all present they were not enough to stop the combined forces. Melren was killed and his soul used as fuel in a spell to ensure his permenant death.
When Seeker returned they found chaos and death. They were able to call Hala to stabilize and restore the other servants but all they could do was burry their master. Hala remained but the peak was a sad and quiet place. Seeker continued to make trips to the world outside and pursue them desire to meet people and experience life.
On one such excursion they found themself helping Xior and Seteth break into a smugglers mansion to access some records. The pair had planned to fight thier way in but with Seekers help they just walked in the front door and took what they needed. After, they attempted to recruit them and they asked if they had a place to stay. They said no and offered to let them rest with them at the Peak. 'Its not much, but its home' they said, as they teleported them to the mystical mountain base making its own waterfalls high over the virgin forest.
Talks ensued and The Windblown ended up turning the base into their base of operations with the help of the Servents of Melren. Seeker now uses them skills to handle delicate operations and infromation gathering for Seteth and is more satisfied with the shift in general morality of them missions.

Mental Trauma
While they recognizes that his enemies would have found him eventually, it was Seeker they learned the peaks sigil sequence from.
Intellectual Characteristics
Seeker is bright and inquisitive. They thrive on improvisation and the missions they're sent on give her that. They're at their best on their toes or relaxing with friends. Their magic allows them to influence the minds of others and sometimes bend them to their will but it is not always a guarenteed thing and executing missions the way they do requires creative thinking, skill and flexibility. They love it.
Morality & Philosophy
They doesn't want to hurt anyone and they pride themself on being able to get in and out of most situations without violence. That said its all relative and the worse the people they're interacting with the less objection they has to something going wrong.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Seeker wants to see and experience everything. There are obviously certain things they can't do being a warforged but they can be around people and attempt to make their lives better. They also requires a fair deal of mental stimulation and while they recognizes the gravity of the tasks assigned to them by Seteth, to them they're really more like elaborate puzzles they gets to solve. They're happy with how their life is going right now.
