Fiaun Beastkeeper ((Fee-awwn))
Fiaun is a small godling boy whose god allows him to bond with beasts.
Fiaun spends much of his time with his beasts in the desert or one of the oases he frequents, though he does make ventures into Pokugara, usually to visit Dutu Murai and her family. Fiaun is friends with Dutu's son, Vurah, and he has a bit of a crush on her daughter, Hecha. Dutu's children love Fang and, to a lesser degree, Fluff.
Physical Description
Body Features
Fiaun stands at a measly 3'7, short for his age of eleven, and does not strike an intimidating presence with his small frame and twig-like arms. Short black hair hangs over his red-brown eyes and his baby-fattened cheeks. His skin is dark brown, and pearly white markings paint over his skin in intricate, and constantly changing patterns.
Special abilities
Fiaun has a weak water magic, though it can do no more than create a trickle of water. Due to his godling status, Fiaun can speak with animals and beasts and it makes them respect him like they would a member of their own species. When channeling his god, Fiaun has complete control over any animal that can hear his commands, negating their will until the command is completed.
Apparel & Accessories
Fiaun wears a tunic made of rough scrounged fabrics, and pants made of stolen hide. He wears overtop his tunic a thin overcoat too big for him that trails down to mid-thigh that he uses to protect himself during sandstorms. A bag containing all his belongings hangs from his side, and a waterskin is tied to his belt.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Fiaun was born in 427M to high-class merchants living in Pokugara . Seeing his markings, his parents wanted to be rid of him at birth before rumors of him could spread and potentially ruin their business. Fortunately for Fiaun, they could not kill him because of their practice of Adradht, and they believed that killing him would violate their commitment. Instead, they locked him away in a small backroom and interacted with him only enough so he wouldn't die of hunger or thirst. After several years like this, Fiaun found Fluff in the wall and began to talk to her. With a bit of time, he convinced her to chew a hole in the wall to let him escape and he ran into the desert. Once in the desert, Fiaun ran across Fang, whom he quickly befriended.
His parents hired Dutu Murai to chase down the "Beastkeeper" who'd attacked them, hoping he would die in the heat of the conflict. Dutu Murai tracked the footprints of Fiaun, and more commonly, Fang, to a cave deep in the desert. Confronting Fiaun, Dutu set to kill Fang, whom she saw as a beast stalking a child, but was stopped by Fiaun explaining the situation.
Dutu brought Fiaun back to Pokugara and left him at her home while she intimidated his parents into leaving the boy alone. Now freed, Fiaun slipped back into the desert with his animals.
Social
Hobbies & Pets
Fiaun has two permanent animal companions: Fluff and Fang, though he is also frequently accompanied by temporary companions. Fluff is a small chipmunk-like creature, she has six legs, sharp teeth, and two fluffy tails. Fluff acts as a scout and counteracts the sometimes foolish wisdom of Fang. Fluff is witty and sarcastic, though her care for Fiaun is genuine. Fang is a large wolf-beast as tall as a grown man. He has long crimson fur, three silver eyes -one in the middle of his forehead-, and fangs so sharp they can glide through bone. Fang carries Fiaun where he needs to go and guards Fiaun, whom he views as his cub, fiercely. Fang is good-natured, playful, basically a dog, though he can be a vicious fighter when need be.
