Backstory
Once they found out his mother was Pregnant, his parents left their Herd and moved away. When Kesiah asked about it as a child, they claimed it was
"because it was too harsh an environment and they didn't want to raise their child that way"- though as an "adult", now, he suspects that's not the true (or at least full) reason, however. Regardless, eventually they settled in the Vetian settlement of
Cubra, located on the edge of the
Kunik Wild Magic Zone in the
Niesen Mountains of eastern
Martova.
His parents tried their best to assimilate into the Human culture around them as much as possible, and raised him largely according to the Vetian culture and its ideals- though they did retain some elements of
Goliath faith, which they passed onto him (including giving him a traditional Goliath spirital name:
Maika). Unfortunately, being Goliath, he grew faster and larger than the other children of the village. And, kids being kids, eventually the other children started desiring to prove themselves and began picking fights among one another- often singling him out since he was the largest among them. This worsened once his Echo Twin began to manifest. He became decent at fighting as a result, though only begrudgingly so.
He spent his "childhood" and "teen" years apprenticing as a Mason among the Tavi, sinc ehis large size allowed him to more easily move stone and other supplies. Eventually, however, when he was about 22 years old, a village member he grew up with kept pushing his limits until Kesiah finally had enough at put him in his place- severely injuring him as a result. It was at that point that he decided it was likely past time he moved on from the small village; despite understanding that he was actually far too young by Goliath standards- not yet even having reached his
true culture's age of majority- his parents said their understanding goodbyes and wished him well wherever his feet took him.
For a while he worked as a Caravan Guard as part of the Eastern company of the Storm Crow mercenary group, escorting groups through the treacherous passes of the
Niesen Mountains. Now he looks mostly to find a place where he belongs; understanding that his parents left Goliath culture behind for whatever reason, he has no real desire to return to his own people- but he would like to carve out his own place in the world (or at least find a place he feels truly comfortable).
