Zigrei, Bounty Hunter
Zigrei (a.k.a. The Undercuter)
"Sod it. We know his face. Zigrei can have him."The cat-like Zigrei is one of the best Bounty-Hunter in the East of the Demon Empire, with about a hundred wanted names decorating his clean office. He is a feline Lega with very attractive body proportions that nonetheless hide his skills as a rogue. Born the son of Lega slaves in Tal Shoth, a young Zigrei was lucky enough to be born a week after a new law was in effect. Thanks to the Second Velian Reforms, he didn't inherit the slave status of his parents, and could receive an education in the Capital's Citadel. His enthousiasm greatly helped against the predjudiced surroundings, as well as the fact Demons do not tolerate leaving potential assets untaped. And so, despite a harsh welcome by the mostly Demon students, Zigrei displayed a great amount of combat skill and reached a journeyman's level in craftsmanship. He graduated without much trouble and his days in battle-school didn't difer much. After fighting for his name and becoming a full-fledged Imperial citizen at the age of fourteen, the young cat then chose to join caravan escorters to earn a living. His Legalese agility had attracted the eye of merchants and his status as "free son of slaves" was good publicity in those days. After five years of monster-slaying and Marauder-killing, Zigrei determined that travelling was not for him. He returned to Tal Shoth with a few friends who helped established themselves as proper bounty hunters near the Slave District, where "the trouble presented less teeth." according to them. Their experience with the harsh outdoors helped him and his partners weather the various gangs as well as get the occasionnal wanted criminal. It is said he was reunited with his parents at some points, but reports vary greatly on the matter. What is certain is that at twenty-four years old, Zigrei had earned a perfect reputation of nigh-perfect capture rate thanks to his numerous connections through IOUs and a little bit of seduction. His reach now covering the entirety of the Lower City, our non-Demon prodigy has bright days ahead of him. Testament to this is the luscious contract he received from a mysterious benefactor, urging him to Orathens.

Mental Trauma
Didn't meet his parent until after returning from Caravan-Escorting. When he met them, they pushed him away because he "left them to rot while the Demons twisted his mind". (even though the parents themselves deposited him in the Citadel whent they heard he could live without being a slave). Very hard blow that pushed him to focus more on his bounties.
