Personal history
Zi is a monk from the hidden monk village of Aeston, a place which has been hidden from the world for centuries so that he monks could work undisturbed in their studies and prayers, the special thing about this village is that at the age of 15, the members of this village (which mostly consists of Aarakocra with some exceptions) leave the village to go on a hermit pilgrimage to discover a purpose for life and to learn more about the world. During this time, Zi was sent out, was forced to say goodbye to friends and family, he set of feeling sad that he had to leave but understanding that this is what is necessary for him to fulfil whatever purpose he has in life, at first he struggled, nothing truly resonated with him and he felt that he was failing and that his only purpose in life was to die, but then he witnessed the death of an animal, a simple farm pig, nothing special, but he saw something in it's eyes when it died, he'd never seen anything die before, as the village is one of life, and hides death from the residents best they could, but when Zi saw this pig die, he resonated with death, feeling a connection to it, so he began his research into death, what different cultures believed, trying to convey with different gods, learning of the afterlives of other religions. Then he ran into a rabbit hole, lost stories of a temple of monks centred around death. He soon learned the name of this temple, the temple of long death. he then set out on a search for this temple and eventually found it hidden in a mist that gave off a sense of death, he had heard travellers talk of this mist saying that it had given them an overwhelming sense of fear and paranoia, but Zi walking through felt as if the mist was guiding him towards the temple, as if it was welcoming him to his rightful home, once he entered he found several research notes on death, prayers to take life from a creature near death and many more things which had been previously forgotten knowledge, as he didn't find any living monks, only monks who looked to have been dead for ages, yet sometimes he felt as if they were guiding him to the research he needed to do to gain more power, after 5 years in this temple, being at the age of 20 now, he found a secret tomb within the temple, a tomb with knowledge on an entity that desired to destroy the world, and that all the monks had to sacrifice their ki and lives to contain this entity, he then found a note, hundreds of years old, yet somehow addressed directly towards him, saying that since he had found this tomb, he was ready to go back out into the world, to take what he had learned and spread it to others, to give the way of the long death new life in this world, and ultimately stop this powerful entity once and for all.
