Kori Glynrel

Character Background
Kori Glynrel (known ingame as npKori) is a Faun from a village north of Syltör where fishing was the primary source of food production. One day, the fish just stopped coming, and The Great Food Shortage occurred. Kori decided that he would be better off if he left the village, so he began to make his way south. Whilst in the Phagosian Sea, he met a Squiddish man and a Merling named Haiko. Eventually, the three of them landed in Vastallos, due north of Carvay City. Here he met Frostina, who had just had leadership transferred to them. After some negotiations, Kori was given leadership over the newly renamed city of Neos Veria (formerly Neos Knossos), which he began rebuilding after the territory had been taken back from Bardonia after an attempted revolution.

Childhood
Kori was born and raised in a small village called Pondhollow. It is located far north of Syltör and is unknown by many in Rathnir. He spent most of his time fishing, as that's what both fed his family and paid the bills. If he ever got some free time, he would head into the mountains that were north of Pondhollow, since then he's felt a spiritual attraction to mountains. Kori's mother died when he was 10, it changed his personality, causing him to be more reserved, rather than the outgoing child he had been beforehand. His 13th birthday marked the beginning of The Great Food Shortage, at first fish only slowly began to disappear, but around the time Kori turned 16, there was a noticeable difference in the overall health of the village.

Journey to Vastallos
After realizing that the food shortage would eventually kill him, Kori left Pondhollow in search for a new home. He stole a boat from his neighbors and set sail south-bound. About a month into his travels, he met a Merling named Haiko Leosteus Terreli. They soon became friends and started travelling together. At some point into their travels, they came across a mostly abandoned island. There was only one person on the island, a Faun boy named Allen. Due to his curiosity and innate need to protect something, Kori adopted Allen, and took him along the journey to Vastallos.

Prime Infection Arc
Kori began reconstruction on Neos Veria, and soon after became more and more well known throughout Ombria. He was eventually introduced to "The Infection", a fungus that was spreading around Vastallos. He was intrigued by it, and began to study it. He eventually started V.E.P.A., or the Vastallos Environmental Protection Agency, alongside other fellow Ombrians, Pretzel, Out_run, and Saph. V.E.P.A. led to multiple sleepless nights for Kori, and massive amounts of stress. Eventually, the stress became too much for him, and he died of a heart attack in Porta Fiume. 2 days later, he was revived by Frostina. His memories were a bit fuzzy, but about everything was still there. (There are multiple methods of revival in Vastallos due to their use of a 3 life system.)

Weeks pass, and Kori is focusing more on his job of being a diplomat, rather than an environmentalist. On the 17th of July, 2021, the infection that had originally spread in Carvay City (and was contained) suddenly breached containment, and began to spread faster. It was unknown how the infection started to spread again. Kori decided to try something that had very little chance of working, and he summoned a slime. The slime began eating away at the infection in Carvay City, eventually making its way to Arcadia and eating the infection there. In this time, Pretzel was trying to stop the slime, and ended up taking 2 of Frostina's lives in the process. At the end of the day, it was revealed that Pretzel had spread the infection in Carvay City. Kori returned, and an argument between him and Frostina ensued as they made their way back to the city from Neos Veria. Kori's focus was on the country as a whole, and Frostina's focus was on personal bonds. After this, everything started to fall back into the realm of normalcy, at least as normal as Vastallos can be.
