Kairon of the Everflowing Flames
Tiefling Fire Elementalist


The world has been ruined by so much. Defilers taking the very lifeforce of the land to power their spells. The greed and far reaching grasp of the Sorcerer-Kings.
The bloodthirsty nature many of the world's inhabitants have taken to try and eek out a survival in the harsh land. And then there are the Tiefling. A group of people who long ago gave of their bodies and souls to otherworldly beings, demonic beings, in a bid for power. They gained power and were twisted by the deal. They became a blight upon the land. And many years later their descendants carry the stigma of that choice. Many of the Tiefling continue the destruction of their ancestors. Killing indiscriminately, raiding caravans or even towns, stealing what they want and burning the rest. Many Tiefling remain a blight upon the land. They have power so they use it as they will. Or they feel they have the debt of sin from their ancestors and do not believe it could ever be filled so they give in to hedonism and debauchery. Some feel the debt, but choose to fill it by killing as much as they can, filling the debt with the souls of the dead. For whatever reason many Tiefling are still a problem. Still there are others who try to make the world a better place.

Kairon was born a Tiefling. He felt the debt of his ancestors. He could feel the sins they committed. And he was ashamed. He wished to do what he could to make up for the Tiefling who came before him. But he was not gifted in producing food and water, in leading people into creating a utopian society, or anything else particularly useful to make the world a better place in a peaceful way. No his skills were more geared toward the use of fire. Calling upon the power of his blood, gifted to him by his cursed ancestry. So he set out to do what good he could by making use of his fire. He traveled the wastes doing what he could to save people from bandit attacks, from raiders, from the many beasts that make the wastes their home, and especially from his own kind.

----------------------------------

quote:

How did you come to reach Paragon? What are your most notable exploits?

"I travelled the wastes. Saving those I could. I sought out signs of battle and went to the aid of those who may have otherwise been overwhelmed. I fought many bandit groups over the years. And I dealt with hundreds of my own kind who had given in to their blood." He looks sad for a moment. Then he continues.

"I even managed to lead a few brief rebellions, helping slaves to overthrow their oppressors. Freeing gladiators from their arena."

quote:

How Daclamitus hear of you? Why did you respond to his request?

"I spoke briefly of gladiators. I believe that is the event that led to Daclamitus' interest in me. While I was traveling the wastes I found signs of a raider attack, following the tracks I learned of slaves that had been captured and sold to a gladiator arena. They were forced into grueling training sessions, many died in the training or in the matches. I could not let it be. So I got involved. I let myself be captured. I joined with the gladiator slaves and I inspired them. I told them of how they could rise up, how they could free themselves, of how they could fight back. Then at the start of a match I gave a predetermined signal and we turned on our overseers. We fought back. And we were successful. I managed to get the gladiators free of the arena, and even outside of the city. Leading them to a group I had contacted that were able to escort them back to their old lives, or to other cities, where they could once more be free."

He pauses. "This was a rather big event. Rumors and stories about the event are spreading even now. As for why I responded to his request? I want to make the world a better place. Unfortunately I am fairly limited in what I can do by myself. With the aid of other like minded individuals and Daclamitus' backing perhaps I could truly make a difference."

quote:

What is one thing you would like to see change for the better on Athas?

"Well it would be nice if we could return the land to a beautiful and gentle place. But that may be a bit beyond our means. For now I would like to make the world a place where one does not have to fear for their life, does not have to fight tooth and nail for the simple luxury of life, where one does not have to be bloodthirsty and cruel to survive and thrive."
