Saaxol Mossy-Scales

Saaxol Mossy-Scales

After a famine swept his village, a young Saaxol was believed to be dead. He woke up days later, with fungi sprouting from between his scales, and druidic powers of decay and rebirth. His heart wasn't beating, yet he was alive. Now a quiet nomad, Saaxol is at peace with his strange, half-dead body. Yet one question still pulls at his mind... Why was he reborn?

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Skinny but sort of tall, often a bit hunched over

Physical quirks

Moss grows over his scales in multiple spots on his body, and on his tail it hangs off. Mushrooms grow on his arms, horns, tail, and legs.

Special abilities

He can talk to animals like any other druid. Also he can grow moss on stone surfaces

Apparel & Accessories

He doesn't wear a lot of clothes and prefers to only wear pants ;)

Mental characteristics

Sexuality

Pansexual but he has no interest for romance

Education

His only formal education was being taught as a kid before he died and became a druid. A lot of his knowledge now comes from his own meditation and his own decisions.

Mental Trauma

Living alone in a forest for 17 years makes you a bit messed up in the head. When truly angry, Saaxol will growl and go slightly feral. He never means to hurt anyone, but... He also hated his very being for a long time. Druids of his kind hate undead, and after sort of becoming one himself, he despised himself. However he doesn't struggle with this anymore, after many years of self-reflection.

Morality & Philosophy

Saaxol's main beliefs center around the world's nature cycle of death. He hates undead only because it interrupts decay (bit ironic isn't it, buddy). Saaxol believes that if you let nature take its course, it will end up alright. It's how he learned to accept himself.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Although nervous around strangers, he really wants to meet people that he can call friends, after not having any his whole life. He also wants to show people in places he visits that decay and rot can be beautiful.

    A lizardfolk with a spore-infested body and powerful necrotic powers sounds terrifying, but Saaxol would rather talk to you about caterpillars than fight you.
