"I will never stop until I find him." 

Kirke was born to a farmer and a retired paladin. For years her father and his old adventuring parties would set up "quests" for newbie adventurers to help them get some money in their pockets and an adventure under their belts. Kirke has always been a quiet child. More comfortable around nature, its creatures, and books. Among her many family members, she was most often the one forgotten. But her father would be one of the few to always remember her as well as her cousin Nayuki. Those two mean the world to her. As the years went on she'd dream of becoming an adventurer with her cousin. She'd often go with her father to the city to watch him hand out the quests. Every friend group has that one activity that binds them together. For her father and his friends that activity would be playing card games and going on small bounties. Most of the time they would be gone from one to two days sometimes three at most. But this time they would be gone for a month. As the families would begin to give up the missing party would return. Well most of them, Kirke's father  Salvius would be missing. As the others were questioned none would know his fate. As all would mourn kirke would take it the hardest. She'd retreat into herself. Several years would pass until she couldn't take it anymore and would leave a note for her loved ones explaining she has to find her father and his fate.
 She'd find herself moving from party to party until she lands a position as an assistant handler at a college in its creature department. Over the years she would rise to Handler until she couldn't handle seeing what was happening to the poor things and maybe setting them free as she set fire to the building.
