Lost Child

You never truly met your parents. Days after you were born, mercenaries with a grudge against your parents broke into your home and took you as payback. However, the mercenaries did not get very far and were ambushed during their escape through the forest. They figured you wouldn't be able to survive so they hid you at the base of a tree and left you for dead. Just as you were getting close to starvation, you were found by a Lycanthrope Ettin who decided to take you in initially as a pet. As you started to grow, the Ettin started to see you more as its child and taught you how to fight and survive on your own. Once you were old enough to survive on your own, you and the Ettin parted ways and you journeyed out on your own adventure.
