You are the unwanted offspring of a genie and a humanoid. Your genie parent may not know of your existence and probably would not care either way. As for your humanoid parent, they most likely abandoned you because they saw you as a scar from their past mistake or trauma. Genasi grow faster than humans, so it is possible for them to survive on their own from birth. Ultimately, you may decide where and at what age you were abandoned. These factors may determine aspects of your personality. For example, a genasi abandoned on the streets of Calimshan at birth will be much more tough hearted and independent compared to a genasi that was abandoned at a temple.
