Kaihhaven

Kaihhaven was born into the Veilstriders, a nomadic people who dwelt in the Shadowfen marshes and believed that one's true face was a burden meant to be shed. As a child, he was marked by a shamanic ritual and grafted with the tail of a great swamp cat, a procedure meant to grant him the creature's cunning and reflexes—gifts that would serve him well as the tribe's protector. When a plague of shadow corruption swept through the marsh, turning his people into twisted abominations, Kaihhaven's hand trembled as he made the terrible choice to burn his own village to prevent the sickness from spreading to neighboring settlements. Wracked by guilt yet driven by an unpredictable hunger for meaning, he donned a bone mask carved with his family's sigil and wandered the world as a mercenary and sellsword, taking contracts that aligned with neither law nor morality but rather his ever-shifting sense of survival and justice. The mask hides not shame, but the fractured identity of a man caught between his tribal heritage and the violent path necessity carved for him. With each battle fought and each coin earned, Kaihhaven inches closer to understanding whether redemption or damnation awaits a warrior born under corrupted stars.
