Bio
Kai didn't remember a time when he wasn't as he was. Born to human parents, he most decidedly was not human himself, but insomuch as was possible, he was raised as though he were.
Children his own age, when he encountered them, were quick to point out the differences.
The skin of his hands and face was ink-black and rough, and everywhere else he was covered in orange and tawny fur. Including his tail - a feature neither of his parents possessed - and which fascinated other children to no end.
Sometimes painfully so, when they wanted to pull it.
Nevertheless, Kai thrived in the desert world, his lean frame adept and adaptable, his fur offering protection from both cold nights and and the abrasive lash of the sands in a storm, his big hands, with their long fingers, ideally suited to digging and sifting.
Because his parents were sand scavengers, most of Kai's formative years were spent outside the protection of city walls and the structure of society at large. Consequently, he never really learned to deal with other people in an easy and natural fashion.
He doesn't make friends easily, but he values those he makes, and has learned to demonstrate his own usefulness in the pursuit of forming connections in the world.
It was when his mind awoke to the world around him that Kai really grew into his own. The desert came to life with a thousand thoughts, and his body and aura began to interact with the world around him. A man named Fletcher Jon saw his potential, saw what he could become, and took Kai in as his apprentice.
Under Jon's guidance, Kai became an adept - a rank similar to journeyman in other trades - earning the right to dye the sides of his beard and the center of his mane crimson to show his rank and affiliation, though there were few enough who would recognize his trade on the weight of those markings alone.
