Status:
 Deserter of the Ivorian Militia 
Appearance:

A monolith of a man, through the rigorous training of his people Ki’an stands tall at 6’1”. Upon a broad shouldered frame, the lean muscle of a warrior lays hidden beneath modest clothing. Fitted, yet not overly tight black shirt and pants, with knee high leather boots clamping his feet. A breed of Aukari and Human mixed, the man’s hair carries the reddish tinge of his fiery heritage, yet the human within shades his mane a dark auburn. Keeping his locks cropped short and tidy, he hopes to hide away the fire that warms his skin as if in a fever; attempting to blend into society.
His raptor-like gaze, a deep well of hazel is hidden beneath layers of worn bandages wrapped around his skull, blinded and impaired. His weathered features obscured, all that is seen upon a glance is a sharp nose and a square jaw, adorning a few days stubble. His sturdy hands, softened to the touch from cloth medical dressings, as they still yet heal from the burns of his past.

The Mark of Flames:
Mark of the Aukari Occult. It is only visible by fire light and appears as a rune on the inside of Ki'an's right wrist. It was given to him the day he completed his training as an assassin for the Immortal, Faldrun.
Image Black tribal-like patterns swirl from his lower back, flowing up to cover his shoulder blades.
Personality:

Stoic, disciplined, stern. Raised in a culture suppressed by fear and treated with angst, is it any wonder Ki’an remains a closed book. Distant and introverted, trust is an issue with all those who cross his path. With the mind-set of a warrior, a trained assassin of the Immortal Faldrun, he utilises logic and practicality, often suppressing the wants and dreams of the heart. Walking the thin wire, tipping between Chaotic Good and Lawful Evil, he is plagued by the inbred morals of his Humanity and the teachings of his Aukari brethren. Torn between the two sides of himself, he is an enigma.
Flaws:
Mistrustful | Guarded | Manipulative | Prideful | Conflicted

History

 
Once Lived, the past is set as stone..

Early Childhood

Born on the 12th Trial of Saun, 696th Arc, Ki’an was birthed an abomination. His Father a warrior Aukari, his Mother a slave Human; he was a half-breed, diluted blood tainted with the stench of the Humanity Faldrun sought to eradicate. Raised in the city of Sirothelle most of Ki’an’s early childhood was wrought with vile-distaste. Name calling, beatings, the young half-blood was ostracized by all of his peers – even his own father on occasion.
Yet the fire gifted by the Immortal Faldrun to the people of the Aukari blazed fiercely within the young boy’s chest. Despite the Aukari people shunning his existence, Ki’an sought to prove himself and yearned to find his place in society. Ki’an threw himself into his studies and worked relentlessly to keep up with the physical demands expected of all his race. The young half-blood steeled himself from the rejection of the Aukari people, instead turning their words into an anger that only fuelled his determination to show he was one of them.
 
▪ His Father looked down upon him with unreachable expectations; training him to be a warrior the Aukari could be proud of – all in an attempt to redeem his own name. The boy’s Father was harsh, beating him if he could not run fast enough, far enough. If he could not grasp his Father's lessons of combat or of his weapons training, Ki’an’s father would force him into Breaks, sometimes Trials of Prayer and meditation out in the wilderness; to ask Faldrun forgiveness for his weaknesses. Henceforth, Ki’an developed a strong Spiritual connection to the Immortal of Fire, aspiring to be worthy of joining the Aukari Occult and to one day be a hand of Faldrun on Idalos.
 
▪ Although Ki’an single-mindedly chased after the acceptance of his Aukari blood, his Mother made sure he did not forget his heritage. She was the only comfort he had in a society of unyielding Warriors. Compassionate, kind, she supported his endeavours to become an Assassin of Fladrun, soothing his cuts and bruises with a kiss and a soft lullaby. Every night before slumber, she would read to him tales and fables of the outside world from a book that was her sole possession as a slave.
Once a season his mother was permitted to take him for a Trial or two all to herself. On these rare occasions, she would take him into the wilderness surrounding the city of Sirothelle and show him the wonders of nature. These trips into the wild often came with the sort of lectures entirely different to the militant nature of the Aukari culture. She taught him about the balance of all living things, the cycle of life and death. She taught him how to survive in the chaotic mess of nature, how to live in unison with the world around him, rather than to eradicate and destroy.
 
▪ A tempest of bottled emotions from a childhood hard lived, come the Trial of Ki’an’s 11th Arc, his feelings boiled over in an eruption of anger. His father had grown tired of the constant battle with the woman who “poisoned” Ki’an’s mind with thoughts of empathy and kindness. Rather than stand by and watch as his Father pounded his Mother, Ki’an utilised his Warrior training. As he stepped in to defend her, the erratic fire within his chest erupted. A wild blaze ensued, ultimately enveloping his Human mother who had stood too close to Ki’an’s flames.
 
Her death plagues his dreams every night, even now to this Trial.

Teen Arcs

▪ With the death of his mother, Ki’an was left to pursue his goal of acceptance into the Aukari society. Prayer and meditation became a soothing part of Ki’an’s life, one he enjoyed. The Breaks praying to the Immortal Faldrun helped centre Ki’an’s whirlwind of emotions, helped calm his guilty conscience. Pushing down his feelings, locking them away into a dark crypt within his mind, the young man found control and self-discipline came easier.
As he grew and became stronger, the half-blood’s father stepped up his training. The man was ruthless in pushing his son to become stronger, faster. Simple runs were turned into tiring assault courses. Ki’an was finally tasked with choosing his weapon the Trial of his 15th Arc and so picking up his first pair of steel Sai, the half-Aukari emerged into manhood.
 
▪ As he entered into this prestigious phase of his life, as a test of his iron will and dedication to becoming an Assassin of Faldrun, Ki’an’s father took him into the wilderness. They hiked for Trials, burrowing deep into the rough country surrounding Sirothelle. Along the way Ki’an’s father taught him how to track, hunt. He showed him dangerous plants, plants that were edible. Then, one night, while Ki’an remained fast asleep under the stars, his father abandoned him, leaving a message that he was to find his own way home. The message ended, “If you do not survive and do not return, you are no son of Faldrun. Yet if you prove you are worthy of his fire within, I will recognise you as my seed.”
The first couple of Trials Ki’an almost starved, surviving on nothing more than fruit or berries from the foliage around him. Travelling in circles, his sense of direction none existent, the young Ki’an struggled like never before. He drew upon the memories of his mother, the things she had taught him as a child. It only caused to inflame his grief, his guilt. Yet her lessons are what saved him. After Trials of tramping through the wilds, Ki’an finally made it back home, barely and albeit a withered version of himself. Yet he was stronger for it. He emerged from the test a hardened man.
 
▪ After Arcs of proving himself in the eyes of his Kin, some had grown to tolerate Ki’an, while others simply remained indifferent to his presence in the Occult. This breakthrough only further enhanced the half-blood’s determination to surpass them all in training. As he filled out into the man he was to be, the Zatkai saw an advantage of his tainted Human blood. With his hair cropped short, Ki’an could easily hide his Aukari heritage and blend into societies beyond the borders of Sirothelle.
 
▪ The Trial of his 18th Arc, Ki’an successfully graduated into the Aukari Occult, well versed in combat, rhetoric, politics and the ways of the world; such as major cities, their rulers, the Immortals that may reside there and the laws of that city. Arcs of training from the age of 5 and it was all in preparation to become a hand of Faldrun, to become his assassin in the land of Idalos.
As a sign of his graduation Ki’an was granted The Mark of Flames in the ritual of Barer of Flames. Held at night, the fire of Faldrun infused the Immortal’s rune-like mark on the inside of Ki’an’s right wrist, officially instating him in the Aukari Occult. A few Breaks of Prayer followed after the ceremony and Ki’an took the opportunity to bestow his own personal Oath to serving the Immortal of Fire.

After Graduation

▪ Given a few Trials to settle into his new position and celebrate his graduation into the Aukari Occult, Ki’an saw an almost instant shift in the way he was regarded among his peers. He was finally recognised as a Son of Faldrun, treated with the respect of a full member of Aukari society. The change was so sudden and bewildering, Ki’an struggled with grasping his new found place among his people. Alas he had finally proven himself worthy.
 
▪ Entrusted with his first mission, the Zatkai tasked Ki’an with infiltrating the Ivorian Militia and acting as a Spy within their ranks. His Human heritage was finally being recognised as an advantage to the Aukari Occult. Keeping his hair cropped short, disguising his fiery Aukari genes, Ki’an was provided with a backstory that would insure his origins and purpose remained hidden. Not a season had passed after the Trial of his 18th Arc, was Ki’an shipped out on the long, arduous journey to the secluded Island in Central Idalos.
 
▪ Knowing his journey would be difficult, Ki’an packed only what he needed, avoiding filling his pack with anything of sentimental value that would jeopardise his mission, or slow him down. Yet, as he was set to leave, his raptor, gaze gaze settled upon a dusty, old book poking out from under his bed. It was the novel of tales and fables his mother used to read to him every night before slumber as a child.
The memory of his Mother, her soft skin and compassionate embrace, gave the hardened man Ki’an had become, pause. He had not cracked the book's spine since the day of her death. He had not even looked at its faded cover. Yet as his Father called for him to leave, he could not leave it behind. Secretly whisking the fictional novel into his backpack, Ki’an raced off. He didn’t know when he would return to his home in Sirothelle. He didn’t know if or when he would see his people, his father again. Yet, he was tasked with a mission in the name of the Immortal of Fire and he would not fail.
And so his story begins,
2 Arcs after the brisk farewells he had said to his kin...
Memories forever changing...

Faldrun


"Flame and heat inviting, build me strong with light ablaze. White fire in my eyes to keep you in my gaze. Let my enemies burn in turmoil, their ashes beneath my feet and pray another day that I am yours to keep..."

Ki’an connects to the Immortal of Fire with a fearful reverence. Indoctrinated from birth with the ways of the Aukari, Ki’an sought to prove himself worthy of Faldrun’s fire, despite his human taint. He has given himself over to the whims and commands of the Immortal that raised his ancestors from death. A blind servant, a warrior, he obeys Faldrun without hesitation. Though within, the moralities of his Human side have begun to seed doubt in his heart, if infact the wishes of the Immortal of Fire are what is right for the land of Idalos.

Possessions

 
Home is where the heart takes you..

A deserter, Ki'an wanders the dangerous roads of the land of Idalos. Blinded, impaired, he can no longer see the path he treads. Stumbling and grappling at the last thin straws of hope that are left, he clings to the guidance of a young Sev'ryn, whose fate has been entwined with his own.
Living off the land, travelling from city to city, mother nature now provides Ki'an sanctuary. Though, necessity will cause the half-blood to dander on occasion to towns or cities along his path. Here local Inns will provide refuge, should he carry the coin for such luxuries and should he be able to shy away his Aukari side from the public.

The Fire Within


Born a half-blood, a mix of Aukari and Human, Ki'an also endures the struggle to restrain the fire within. Ki'an was born with a natural resistance to heat and can last longer in colder weather due to his unnaturally warm blood. Though the intensity of his Eruptions and hot blood are not as strong as one would expect from a full-blooded Aukari; his human side cooling the blaze within his heart.
