Sekuzashi's History

Born to a revolutionary, tribal lizardman and a draconian female of royal descent, the beginning of Sekuzashi's life was met with much hardship and strife. Having violated the strict protocols put in place by the draconian royalty in regards to arranged marriages as well as breaking from the long-standing tradition of upholding the blood lineages scribed and recorded by the draconian elders and priesthood, Sekuzashi's mother fell in love with an outspoken and valiant lizardman who fought for balance and equality amongst all the races of the lands. The violation of mention came in the form of a secret birth between the two lovers, kept in strict confidence amongst very select company in which either had put their complete trust and faith. Though, as fate would have it, the birth of Sekuzashi was not to remain a secret at all. Betrayed by her court and entourage, whom which were acting in their own perceived best interests of the royal families, and had sent spies to monitor and surveil Sekuzashi's mother and her activities, the entirety of her relationship and pregnancy were known to the High Draconian Court. After birth, the Court had made their move against the child with the full consent of the royal families and an agreed upon protection for Sekuzashi's mother. Sekuzashi was taken by the royal guard and given to the spies to deal with as previously arranged by the Court. One of these spies, whom having grown discontent with the royal families and the High Draconian Court's corruption over the years, managed to slip away and escape with the infant, evading the pursuers. Having arrived at the encampment which was home to Sekuzashi's father, the newly redeemed spy witnessed a most horrible sight, that being the complete annihilation and utter ruin of the village. Smoldering fires and piles of rubble scattered the entirety of the area, the remnants of out-buildings and huts. After laying eyes on the lifeless body of the infant's father, the spy did not stall in rerouting and guiding the newborn to a place of solace. Into the void, through foliage and pathways of wilderness far beyond the Dragon Tower, the spy would take on the responsibility of raising this child. Many years later, the youthful Sekuzashi had become a reliable hunter and gatherer, with a strong affinity for combat and living in nature even under the harshest conditions. The guardian whom abandoned the life of a spy in order to raise Sekuzashi did so in earnest, imparting what wisdom and knowledge he could to the young halfbreed and raising him in a principled, disciplined way befitting of Sekuzashi's late father and his father's beliefs. The ways of the hunt and survival were commonplace in his adolescence; life lessons often arrived swiftly and were taken to heart. Adept at a wide variety of weaponry, his guardian was able to introduce Sekuzashi to the way of the warrior over the years. By drawing upon the spirit of his forebearers, guided by patience and perserverance, the way of honor began to reveal itself through the trials of his life. As his guardian was often tending to a hunt or business afar throughout his younger years, Sekuzashi was quite familiar and found contentment with moments of solitude, leading him to find great benefit in meditation and reflection. Learning of his lineage and the many corruptions of the world from his guardian over the years that they survived together, Sekuzashi eventually set out on his own and traveled back through the void, with purpose.
