Firuwz Afshin

Backstory

Firuwz was born on the 7th of Green Dawn sixteen years prior to the first year of the Fourth Era to Ophiae and Feroh in the southwestern region of Masselon. His family had once belonged to a minor tribe in the desert and it was until around his twelfth nameday that his family had left the tribe far from the troubles of the infighting among the tribes of the region.

His father, formerly a warrior, was the one to teach him the essentials of learning how to survive in the region: from the arid desert to the unforgivingly cold mountains. Though Firuwz had learned how to hunt game and forage herbs for medicine, he has yet to learn the difference between taking the life of an animal from that of a man, woman, or child.

His mother was the one to teach him literacy, allowing him to understand the Common tongue in written media. Though the art of calligraphy was not his strong suit, he manages to write comprehensive sentences and expand his vocabulary based on the cultural environment he was exposed to. At the time of his youth, much of his vocabulary depended on the common observations of the Massara. Besides crude literacy, he was mentored by his mother the Val'Maeri faith, with great emphasis on Rhathar, Iona, and later on Tethys from the two's shared passion of the seas.

Though their family was nomadic, they did not move beyond Masellon but instead moved from one end of the region to the next depending on the season; the cold mountains of the north come Sun's Height and the warm desert of the south by Frost Fall.

It wasn't long until their family was struck by misfortune. A few months past his fifteenth nameday, his father would succumb protecting the family from an unexpected bear attack in their journey across Masellon from the mountains. By the next Frost Fall, his mother fell infirm and passed away.

Come his sixteenth nameday on the first year of the Fourth Era, he was on his own. Knowing that he was not ready to be a nomad nor a member of a Massara tribe, something that his family disassociated themselves from, he followed after the pursuit of his mother's curiosity and honored his father to preserve their ways despite his journey.

Traveling east beyond Masellon, he begins his life anew in the city of Palern...
