My entire family and everyone in the village was murdered by me when I as 4 years of age, but I had no choice I was put under a spell by a evil sorcerer that commanded me to set everything on fire. I am and always will be haunted. Now I see my family and village burning everywhere I always have nightmares about it every night. I try and try to forget what happened but then I see them again and I blame myself for their death. I was born in kongtree a village that everyone lives in trees. I wont ever do something like that again if I fon't have to. I hope I wont ever have to. I do my best to stay away from people. I don't trust sorcerers unless I can get to know them but even then I still keep my eye on them. I have items that I collected from elders that they don't need all except for the crossbow I own. That was my brothers crossbow. I keep hearing voices, and the one main voice is the voice of the sorcerer that told me to set my village on fire. The second main voice that I hear in my head is my brothers voice calling out my name. My mother and father died when they were asleep. I was closest with my brother. My name I Fuak Reese and my brother was Trek Reese, I never knew my parents names I always called them Mom and Dad.

I murder everyone I my village(Kongtree) because of an evil sorcerer who put a spell on me that made me do what he wanted me to. I see my village and my family burning and that will always haunt me. What haunts me the most is my brothers voice in my head calling my name and knowing that I killed him.(Personal goal)=I will put an end to him(the sorcerer) for what he made me do.
| d10 | Kongtree burning |
|---|---|
| 1 | A monster that slaughtered dozens of innocent people spared your life, and you don’t know why. |
| 2 | You were born under a dark star. You can feel it watching you, coldly and distantly. Sometimes it beckons you in the dead of night. |
| 3 | An apparition that has haunted your family for generations now haunts you. You don’t know what it wants, and it won’t leave you alone. |
| 4 | Your family has a history of practicing the dark arts. You dabbled once and felt something horrible clutch at your soul, whereupon you fled in terror. |
| 5 | An oni took your sibling one cold, dark night, and you were unable to stop it. |
| 6 | You were cursed with lycanthropy and later cured. You are now haunted by the innocents you slaughtered. |
| 7 | A hag kidnapped and raised you. You escaped, but the hag still has a magical hold over you and fills your mind with evil thoughts. |
| 8 | You opened an eldritch tome and saw things unfit for a sane mind. You burned the book, but its words and images are burned into your psyche. |
| 9 | A fiend possessed you as a child. You were locked away but escaped. The fiend is still inside you, but now you try to keep it locked away. |
| 10 | You did terrible things to avenge the murder of someone you loved. You became a monster, and it haunts your waking dreams. |
Those who look into my eyes can see that I have faced an unimaginable horror and that I am no stranger to darkness. Though they may fear me, commoners will extend my every courtesy and do their utmost to help me. Unless I have shown myself to be a danger to them, they will even take up arms to fight alongside me, should I find myself facing an enemy alone.
