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.

Hygiene
Surprisingly, Saaxol has fine hygiene. Whenever he washes the moss and mushrooms grow back afterwards.
Social
Contacts & Relations
In a party with Baldr, Mansoon, Hexa, and Bud
Family Ties
None that he knows of. He assumes that they are all dead.
Religious Views
He doesn't believe in an afterlife, but in reincarnation. He thinks that the afterlife, in any form, heaven or hell, does not exist. Nature will reincarnate you if it believes you are worthly.
Social Aptitude
He has very bad social skills but he is working on it!
Speech
He talks quite fast, and quietly most of the time. He'll hiss or growl when upset sometimes.
Relationships
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.
