Stage: prentice
Race: Pure Oban, Albino
Gender: Male
Location: In or around Jatine
3 Base Traits: self-indulgent | Hard-headed | fearless
Personality: self-indulgent | Hard-headed/persistent | fearless | Impatient | intuitive |
○ Self Indulgent: Growing up in the faction, he was always given anything he wanted. Not only his parents, but others who were in charge of his schooling and lessons, spoiled him and gave him most everything he wanted. The only exception was with his learning and religion. They made sure he did all his lessons and prayed to all the gods. Though, being spoiled by everyone leads him to be self indulgent, normally doing whatever he likes whenever he wants to unless someone in a position of power tells him to do otherwise.
○ Hard-headed / persistent: A side effect of being self indulgent, Qoraekai is often hard headed and isn't easily swayed. Like his self indulgence, he will listen to his elders but the thought will stay in the back of his mind so he can continue it when he gets the time. It might lead him to hold grudges simply because he'll remember.
○ Fearless: Fear isn't a word in Qora's dictionary and he's not entirely sure why people are afraid of things. Sure he's lived his whole live as someone drawing attention and perhaps its because of that that he isn't afraid of anything. He's always had people's eyes on him and he's never wanted to let anybody down. So he simply tells himself there isn't anything to be afraid of. Later on, he might learn that fear is something everyone has, even if its for someone else.
○ Impatient: Kai's impatience also stemmed from his upbringing being spoiled. He won't like to wait for things and expects things to just happen simply because he wishes them so. None of his teachers nor his parents have been able to teach him to be more patient and to try and slow down to enjoy things. It would take a very strong hand indeed to teach him patience.
○ Intuitive: Despite his impatience, he is very intuitive. His faction believes that its because of the prophecy but Qora just thinks that its because he's lucky. He'll ALWAYS follow his intuition which might not always yield the best outcome.
If anything, though, Qoraekai is true to himself and will never try to be anyone other than himself. He knows he's special, even if its just for his skin and whatever prophecy his faction believes he's supposed to fulfill. He will have some resentment towards his parents and others for trying to keep him from the world until they wanted him to instead of when he was ready.
Description: Like this. He will have very very pale skin due to his albinism as well as having very very pale white/nearly white hair. His eyes will be a light pink and curiously enough, his crystals will also be bleached of color.
Clothing: Despite living in the desert, he always wears dark colors and thick fabrics to protect his sensitive skin. He'll always have a cloak with a hood to huddle under if there is no protection from the sun in his environment.
Accessories: A crescent moon shaped necklace inlaid with shiny white gemstones on a black string.
History:
Outline:
- was born!
- parents thought he was sick, took him to a healer/doctor
- healer/doctor was part of a group who believed a prophecy about an albino oban
- Qorae is raised in "The Crescents" faction, given most anything he wanted, but was told they were "guarding a great treasure." Would find out later that the treasure was him.
RP FUTURE
- Meets Irro searching for the ___ treasure
- Irro finds out its him
- Qorae finds out its him
Almost immediately from birth and on as a youngling, Qoraekai's parents thought he was sick. He was much lighter than most others were when they were born, his mother was quite light for an Oban, but his skin never darkened and his parents had always been concerned. Under the hot Oban sun, Qora's skin would turn bright read and burn and peel causing the youngling quite a bit of pain. His parents took him to a healer in Jatine who then told his parents he had albinism and was the reason his skin was so sensitive to the sun. The healer gave directions on how to make a salve that would help Qoraekai's skin when it burned but that wasn't all. The healer was part of a faction that worshiped Ubeli just a little more than the other gods and goddesses as they believed she would lead them to their destiny. While this prophecy of sorts is interpreted differently by everyone, they all had one thing in common. Ubeli would be reincarnated in the form of an earthling whose skin would mirror the moon. Of course, even though the looks of him was enough to convince most, the elders wanted to be doubly sure. They set the youngling down in front of lines and lines of pendants and necklaces and bracelets, some were in honor of gods and others just plain pieces of jewelry. Baby Qora didn't even look at any of them, but went straight to a crescent moon necklace inlaid with shiny white stones and it was the symbol of their faction, The Crescents.
This faction convinced Qoraekai's parents to bring him to be raised in the faction. They provided anything and everything Qora's parents could have ever wished to provide their son and the fact that their son was happy and being taken care of and the faction had ways of protecting their son's sensitive skin was enough for them to join the faction even if they didn't believe the prophecy at first.
Whether Qora believes the prophecy or not, he wouldn't tell anyone. He likes having anything he could ever want and enjoys being relatively pain free and protected from the sun. However, he's sort of resentful at the faction for not really allowing him to leave and explore the world. While they say its for his own protection, that there are others out there who would wish him ill, he's had lessons in self defense from an early age and doesn't believe they are justified in their reasoning. As he begins to shape his own destiny, however, he'll see that they were trying to protect him but figure out that they could never protect him from everything.
Hobbies: learning fighting techniques, dancing.
Qora would tell you he's good at everything while really he has a knack for combat. It wasn't uncommon for him to spend an extra amount of time with his weapons master trying to learn everything he can about all the weapons he can get his hands on.
His secret passion is dancing, though he would never tell anyone. He admires those who can move with so much grace that they make no noise while they move. He sees this as a strength and something that could aide his weapons training but in truth he doesn't have much aptitude for it. His persistent nature will push him to try it and get better and may eventually try to find a teacher if for nothing other than to have one more thing that he knows how to do.
