Mental characteristics

Personal history

Early Life
Vuntha(Black) was born into what was then called the Sharktooth tribe now know as the Bone Tribe within the Dark Swamps. Vuntha was named this cause all his scales were black. He was taught how to hunt with the rest of the young men. After asking too many questions, his curiosity as well as other things his intelligence was soon made clear. Publicly shamed and exiled from the tribe for the crime of being intelligent by the chief Doran of the Sharktooth tribe.
  Vuntha soon found himself within the Dark Swamps ; here it was just him, the wildlife and the ghosts. He struggled to survive alone within these swamps, thus he developed a fear if being alone.
  Vuntha found an old run-down shack deep in the world while he was hunting. In the shack were books, lab equipment, and other magical items. While he was looking through the shack for food and tools he found a book that was adorned with Images of nature, magic, and spirits, and in the middle was the symbol of the spirit Sable Haru. As soon as he touched the book a ghost by the name of Spiro Gurdeep, that had inhabited the Dark Swamps for many years, detected him and Vuntha's strong connection to the spirits.
  As Vuntha was scavenging for food around the shack where he had taken up residence, Spiro Gurdeep confronted him. Spiro expresses to Vuntha that he has a strong connection to the spirits and wishes to pass on his knowledge, wisdom, power, and traditions to him so he can move on to the spirit world. Vuntha had been searching for a means to take on the Doran in a one-on-one fight to the death to take control of the tribe. He found this a good opportunity to do just that, so he agreed.
  The two of them began his training in shamanism, understanding, and study of magic, alchemy as well as the teachings of the goddess Sable Haru . Over the course of several years once Vuntha becomes a man through one of Spiro's traditions, Spiro had nothing more to teach him after that and asked for Vuntha to prepare the ritual for him to move on. Vuntha accommodated his master and prepared the ritual, saying his final goodbyes to his master with what sadness the lizardman could muster.

  Return To The Tribe
Now ready to take on chief Doran, Vuntha returned to the underwater caverns where the tribe was based. Upon returning he was threatened with many spears and asked to leave. He refused and asked for a one-on-one duel to the death with Doran. This only meant one thing to the lizardmen of the Sharktooth tribe he wished to become chief. The lizardmen began to laugh and asked him if this was a joke, the smart one was asking something he shouldn't have they said. He was dead serious the tone shifted to a serious one. He was then guided to the sacred battle arena where duels were held. Carrying pike in hand, magic buffing him, and dressed in his formal wear he was ready. Summoning the forces of the spirit world he fought a hard-fought battle.
  At the end of the duel Vuntha cast a spell raising Doran as a skeleton, this earned the respect and power of the tribe. He proclaimed that the smart shall no longer be punished, that the tribe will be called the Drihli(Bone)tribe, and that they now shall worship the spirits and the spirit Sable Haru.
  Vuntha claimed the shaman of the tribe as his wife and taught her of Sable Haru, becoming the shaman as well in the process. They had 16 children the smartest of which was a son named Othokentir(Smart One). He was named as the replacement of Vuntha should he no longer be able to carry on the role of chieftain.
  Many years had passed and one day his wife had a prophetic vision by Sable Haru that Vuntha must quest for her or the tribe will fall to ruin. Both agreed it was dangerous to ignore their god. Othokentir took on chieftain in the meantime. Vuntha lent all his master's treasures to his son, the only thing he took from his master was his master's arcane book. Gearing up he said goodbye to his tribe and that he will return when Sable Haru guides him back.
