...so, Thaksaar the mighty fought off 50--no, 100--great beasts with one hand behind his back! And then...

Personality

Zahshi is a 15 year old teen, who loves his friends above all else and wants to do nothing more than sit around a bonfire and tell stories about legendary warriors and their adventures. He loves to entertain, whether that's telling tales around the fire, singing songs, or performing on stage, and his charisma certainly helps with that. He's clever and quick to improvise, and occasionally talks himself and his friends out of trouble--whether that's from bad grades in school or Thaz getting caught stealing meat and potatoes for their campfire later. He and his friends are no weaklings when it comes to fighting either--while not super strong, they don't have trouble fending off the usual animals in the woods that are attracted to the smells and sounds of their camp and merriment. He does tend to be a bit naive, still believing in is heart to some extent all the stories and great adventures of heroes that always end up with a happy ending. He tends to be selfless and self-sacrificing to a fault, especially when it comes to his friends.

Physical Description

With scaly green skin and bright yellow eyes, there's no mistaking Zahshi for anything other than a Yuan-Ti. His white hair frames his face and is occasionally adorned with pins or ribbons or other ties. He has dark green markings under his eyes, and a scar across his right cheek and nose from a previous battle in the woods. He's a little short for his age, but he doesn't really mind it at all.

Additional Information

As a young boy, he is still naive and inexperienced. He values self-sacrifice as his mother did while raising him, and follows the god of Courage and Self Sacrifice, Torm.

History


A teenage boy from Holm, he and his friends (Atzel, Iztlie, and Thaztessi) would often go into the woods to hang out, build a bonfire, and eat and drink together. Despite their age, they were not unfamiliar with the low-level monsters that were common in that area, and would have no trouble taking care of the few that would be attracted to the sounds and smells from their merriment. One night, they were attacked and completely overwhelmed by a large beast, a strangely mutated Owlbear, and he was killed while trying to keep the beast at bay while they tried to escape. His friends survived, but are wracked with guilt over his death--particularly his closest friend Atzel, who barely survived. His greatest wish is to be able to reassure them that he is alright and that he holds no grudge upon his dearest friends. Growing up, his mother worshipped Torm, the god of Courage and Self-Sacrifice, and placed within him the value of giving yourself for others, which tied deeply into his life, as well as his death.

Additional Information


Following his death, he found himself face to face with a strange ethereal person, who called themselves Limbo, along with 2 others. Limbo explained to the 3 of them that their deaths were untimely and had happened due to changes in the world due to the death and rebirth of a god--and that they could be granted a second chance at life, if they agree to retrieve several items fueled by the rifts in space and power. Zahshi jumped at the chance and immediately agreed, and soon found himself and his new companions adventuring through the Feywilds and other planes of existence to find these artifacts and restore the world to how it was--and to hopefully see his friends again.

Atzel

[ Best Friend ] His dearest and closest friend, anywhere Atzel would be, Zahshi would definitely not be far behind. A pair of slight troublemakers in the best way, the duo was more like a pair of brothers than simply friends.

Iztlie and Thaztessi

[ Friends ] Zahshi's other closest friends, they would always go and camp along the edge of woods together, about a day's travel from the edge of Holm. The four of them would build a big fire, and eat and drink to their heart's content, relishing in their youth.

Æstyphus, Barton, and Clairy

[ Adventuring Party ] Other people from the same plane that had died untimely deaths, Zahshi met them with Limbo and together they set off to retrieve the artifacts and take back their lives.
