Personal history

Born at a very young age in the Creets of Asarius, Bosham was an accident amongst his parent's polycule, but loved all the same. Bosham was raised to follow his parents, aunts, uncle and parling, shown the benefit of rules and rewarded to ingrain them into his well being. As part of that early education he was taught traditionally as his ancestor's tribe would, with communal guidance, experience and a steady stream of tales of old.
Bosham began to gain extra-curriculum resources; Spending downtime reading at the library, spending time with other families to hear their story and, when she could sneak him aside, private tales and work from Aunt Craggamoth. Young and impressionable, Bosham would take Craggamoth's stories of rebellion, of the people's power to heart, though what stuck was more he inspirational hope of an individual's strength. What Craggamoth was trying to land home, and ultimately failed to inspire, was a spark of rebellion, a failure she learned the hard way.
Age 14 It was easy for Craggamoth to get Bosham to agree to do some private work for her, moving boxes in the dead of night from a shop to a warehouse. Bosham's curiosity got the better of him however, taking note of the location, the name of it, and where the goods went; He had never heard of the shop before, nor of any specific labour job his aunt was part of that she'd suddenly began to spout. He returned to the scene the next day only to find guards there investigating a break-in.
Bosham told them everything. The ensuing legal chaos lead to a week in a cell for the Goblin, while Craggamoth fled as a coward.
Age 16 Bosham's curiosities continued, his innocence and hard work currying favour with the family that remained. Having really found a love for books and history his parling Onkurz started spending more and more time with him, taking a more hands-on approach to his education and, ultimately, offering to put in a good word at her place of work so long as he promised to put in the work to make it worthwhile. Given she was an assistant at Den Olios's Faernanis (Mage Dawn) Academy, pioneering Asarius Warmagic, Bosham agreed.
Age 16-22 Bosham acted as a model student under Alavil Mercurias, his curiosity and attentiveness making him a quick leaner.
Practiced at home with Onkurz to hone cantrip use and theory.
Befriended Justice, sharing a love for storied history, tales of heroics and adventure, and fuelling one-another’s enthusiasm. Justice began joining Bosham with home education, and Bosham (usually with family) would join Justice’s family going camping.
Started a friendly and not-so-friendly rivalry with Tilkkemez who would frequently act better than Bosham from being from a more wealthy family with a history of spell casters, insisting their superiority (and more often being able to back up their claims) in the arcane.
Age 22 A magically altered beast was let loose by an Empire spy in the building the academy was housed in, an experiment by Den Olios which began to rampage. When the class was suddenly cornered the teacher Alavil sprung into action and was hurt, Bosham and Justice both acted to help and ultimately defeated/subdued the creature till help arrived. Bosham was cornered so Justice grappled and pushed the creature away, Justice’s Rage took the better of her and Bosham calmed her down in the wake of the fight. They started a relationship.
Age 24 Bosham is forwarded for more advanced training in Rosohna for one year, Justice does not. On the journey to Rosohna, the caravan Bosham is part of is stuck inside what seems to be a sudden onset storm. Bosham is struck by lightning when going through luggage, pulled into the clouds and sent across the continent with a pack of Alavil’s books and some random goods.
