Personal history
Entei Keylana, 41, Latus Elf, Wizard
Where was the Character Born?
Born in Bengrex in 315, fled to Odeka in 317, then fled to The Pinnacle in 330.
Who are their parents?
a. Are the parents/family still alive?
Elixian and Elena Keylana, still alive, living in The Pinnacle. Elixian is a Gloom Stalker Ranger and Elena is a Shadow Magic Sorcerer & Potion Maker. They made their lives in a potion shop in Bengrex called "The Elixirium." Elixian, as a skilled ranger, had spent his days collecting herbs, while his wife did most of the potion brewing.
As the hostilities against elves grew, their store was raided many times, ultimately driving the family out soon after Entei was born. They fled to Odeka, where as a neutral city, thought could be a safe haven for their new child.
As the war raged on they worked a small stall where they could continue, albeit much smaller and poorer, their potion business. At the end of the war, when Reinhet and Terra's battle drew close, they were forced to flee once again as their new city burned to the ground. Narrowly escaping the city's destruction, they were forced to spend their life savings, hire a ship piloted by the Rabbit Foot’s Guild and head for their ancestral home of The Pinnacle.
Extremely low on funds, Elixian was forced to rely on older, more sinister contacts within The Pinnacle to get off the ground. He was always very skilled in espionage and as a spy, would perform jobs for various criminal organizations around The Pinnacle. Eventually, they saved enough money to re-open "The Elixirium" within the city. The store served both as a more reliable and safe means of income for the family but also, unable to completely escape his criminal contacts, was regularly used as a smuggling liaison.
What was your character doing before the adventuring life?
Mostly reading. Entei is a lover of all things written, a true scholar. He would study magic under his mother, Elena. However, even with his mother’s tutelage he never could quite grasp the magical talent of sorcery. So, with his clear fascination with magic he would read and dream as much as he could about magic and specifically, how it could cause the massive geographic change that has torn the Material Plane.
Being a Half-Elf, Elixian wanted Entei to experience the world and adventure outside of The Pinnacle while Elena wanted to keep him home at least until he was in his 50s. At around 20 years old, Elixian forced him out of his "hobbit" hole and made him start doing odd jobs around The Pinnacle. This would also force him to do some more unsavory jobs for his father whenever the criminal organizations came calling. However, as Entei was very against it, and would always find excuses to go back to his books, wherever possible.
One day, he was asked to steal a chest from a magic shop in a neighboring town, Egowell. The job went successfully, and in this chest he found a few spell scrolls and a very interesting tome. Entei's lust for knowledge and love for books drove him to pocket these items for himself. The two spells were Detect Magic and Find Familiar, along with an already enchanted, blank, Wizard’s Spellbook. Luckily, whatever else was in that chest was what the organization really wanted and didn't notice the items Entei stole. (Or they just ignored it, or they remember it/have a debt/may show up later, whatever you want tbh).
Why did your character leave their previous life?
After studying the spell scrolls for a few years and with nothing but himself, some assistance from his mother, and his books, he finally inscribed his first spell from one of the spell scrolls into the spell book. As soon as he understood the mechanics of inscribing said spell, he was able to manifest that magic. He finally found his calling. This was his main motivation to leave the home and venture out in search for more powerful spells and to feed that hunger for knowledge.
What did your character leave behind?
His parents and the Potion Shop of course. Potential debt to whatever criminal organization he stole his scrolls/book from? (Dunno if this'll be usable for later in the campaign).
What does your character want? (motivations)
Entei has always been marveled at what his mother could do with her magic. He also shares her love for potion making and drives to learn as much as he can. After discovering his magic talent lied in wizardry rather than sorcery, for the first time, he now has a new need to explore and learn how to master his talent. He wishes to make his own mark on the world like the wizards of the past had done. (Referencing Red Waters/Sunfar Pass/The Thicket/Lilypad Lake). He also very much wants to visit these places.
