You hail from a rare and contemplative psionic race known as the O’jin — beings who dwell near the World Tree’s roots in the Astral Plane. Your people live in isolation, seeking balance and serenity while avoiding the endless war between the Gith and the Illithid.
You were born among a small O’jin settlement whose calm mastery of psionics made them both envied and feared. When the Illithid discovered your enclave, the O’jin fought valiantly but were overwhelmed. In the chaos, you were gravely wounded and escaped through stolen Illithid technology — cast adrift through the Astral currents until you fell, broken and near death, onto the frozen tundra of Icewind Dale.
There, an elder elf named Rynvald Adûn found you half-buried in the snow. He nursed you back to health and offered quiet companionship in his slow restoration of an abandoned keep. Together, you rebuilt it and named it Fiddler’s Green — a place where travelers could find rest and reflection. Rynvald taught you the art of the Bladesong, blending motion and magic into harmony, while you taught him to extend his perception through psionic awareness.
After his passing, you took stewardship of the keep, honoring his legacy and the balance he restored within you. Whether you now travel to protect, to teach, or to seek what remains of your fallen kin, you carry both the wisdom of Rynvald Adûn and the echo of your Astral lineage within you.
Those who meet you often sense your calm presence before they hear your voice — a quiet stillness that feels like standing beneath ancient stars.

You wear a layered traveling robe of deep navy and earthen brown, woven from psionically treated fibers that move as fluidly as your stance. The garment isn’t armor but an extension of your discipline — light, breathable, and responsive to motion.
The long coat splits at the front and back, allowing full mobility for strikes, flips, and meditative posture alike. Thin stitching traces the edges of the fabric in faint geometric patterns — sigils from your O’jin lineage that hum subtly when you enter a focused state.
Beneath the coat, fitted cloth wraps and reinforced sashes maintain warmth without restriction. The black scarf draped around your neck can be drawn over the face against Icewind’s storms or lowered to rest as a symbol of peace. Your gloves and bindings are worn but purposeful, reminders of work done by hand and focus kept through labor.
At your side rests a matched pair of curved blades: Solmir and Verrin. Though shaped like scimitars, one bears the long, elegant reach of a katana while the other mirrors the balance of a wakizashi. They are carried crossed behind your lower back, hilts angled for seamless draws.
Their craftsmanship is simple but masterful — not ceremonial, but personal. When held together, a faint resonance hums between them, perceptible only to those attuned to psionics. To you, the sound feels like home — a reminder of the Astral’s pulse that guides every motion and breath.
