Damios Kosta (World of Orrison)

Damios was born to two fanatically devout Penitent Rrex who tried to raise him as pious as they were. He was punished severely whenever he displayed his crown or acted prideful in any manner, but they were unprepared for just how strong-willed and defiant he turned out to be in response to their struggle for control over him. His mother was the most insistent on the matter, convinced that Damios's markings were close enough to resembling a wing mantle that his existence was a divine omen.

Damios continued to be resistant to their upbringing, and when he turned 17 he boldly declared he would never in his life worship Kheir. At this, His mother snapped, furiously attacking him and attempting to dock his ears and tail by force in order to punish him for his blasphemy and defiance. He barely managed to struggle free before she could finish the grisly task, but his ears and tail were left scarred where she had almost succeeded in cutting through them. He fled, bleeding and frightened, and never looked back.
