Personal history
De Kudi was raised in the Emeralda Marshes. He was raised through his "Hatching Years" with his mother, who taught him all the ways of being a tortle in this world. Heavily emphasized in his rites of passage was fishing, as De Kudi's mother saw this as the most valuable form of food. She also told him dilligently, "Never forget who you are, De Kudi, for when you have nothing else in this world, there will be nothing more powerful than your name.
When De Kudi became an adult, he made his way to a comfortable location deep in the Emeralda Marshes, near the headwaters, but within boating distance of the coast. Here he made a name for himself as the best fisher in the region, often bartering with a local Lizardfolk community for anything De Kudi could not acquire himself. In his ventures to the Lizardfolk village, one day he met a monk who was traveling through the village with a group of adventurers. The monk took a liking to him, and over the next several weeks, stayed in the area and trained De Kudi to become one with his ki. When the two gathered together to save the Lizardfolk village from a Kobold raid, the monk knew De Kudi's training was complete.
Sometime later, De Kudi traveled up the headwaters to Emeralda Lake. While fishing upon the serene waters, he piloted his boat further upon the misty waters, idly waiting for inspiration to strike him on a good location to continue fishing. The next thing he knew, he was being assailed by a terrible sea monster! He used his ki to fly away from danger. A realization was then made: De Kudi was no longer at Emeralda Lake, but was instead was in a deep, foreign canyon. When he surveyed the landscape, he found himself in a completely alien world. The only nearby settlement was one of many other people who had been similarly stranded. De Kudi learned soon thereafter that he had somehow fallen into a cursed demiplane, one from which none escapes.
But what difference was this place from any other? Besides the giant, violent monsters, of course. De Kudi built himself a small shack near The City and the nearby bodies of water, and continued his passion of fishing, becoming something of a local celebrity for his skills at gathering the best most diverse array of fish the small community had ever seen. By chance, on a lazy day just like any other, he encountered the adventurers Brydan Gulli, Korva Thorne, Aisleigh Serdin, and soon thereafter their friend Garroth Hellsturn, who they were attempting to save from this prison of a demiplane. De Kudi resolved to join this motley crew and begin a new adventure with them.
