Bardonian incest, defects, and angels.

Taven Johan was born in Bardonia into a middle class, political family. His parents, also siblings, came from a long line of inbreeders, dating back to the 1st Bardonian Empire, hence why he is mutated to have blue facial features. Taven Johan was always eager to learn about his father's political roles, and at the age of 7, he was practicing diplomacy with his siblings. His mother was a fisher, as well as a merchant. Even though Taven seemed happy in Bardonia, things started to get worse for him when his mother was mugged and killed by foreign bandits. Taven started secondary Soleannen school, and just as his father warned him, he was bullied repeatedly because of his defects. Taven ran away from home at the age of 12, due to the destructive wars in northern Bardonia and the constant bullying in his school, heading south.

Don't sleep 'till Haven

It took 5 years to get to the continent of Haven, as Taven Johan was caught by bandits many times. At the age of 17, Taven applied for citizenship in Aurora, hoping to move to Fornost, the biggest city in the world. He is accepted, and welcomed by a lady named Maryden. Taven, however, is still sceptical of Aurora and the Empire of Uldarash as a whole, as it is in a civil war. Taven Johan decides to get over his fear of war that brought him here, and enlists in the Order of Aurora. As he is in the army, he learns of the many different religions and cultures of Aurora and Uldarash, including the religion of Pavloism. Since he is still extremely poor, and since the war is slowing down rapidly, Taven embarks on a journey north to fish, hoping to find treasure and food, Taven thinking of his mother on his depart.

Back to Bardonia

2 years go by as he is traveling, until he finds a small town somewhat near the coast. He talks with the governor, and Taven is accepted to live in the Town of Scorpius while he is fishing. Beaten, stolen from, and still poor, Taven Johan is again uneasy about joining a new town. As Taven is now Pavloist, he is once again bullied because of the difference between the religions of Haven, and where he was then, which he finds out is Bardonian. Him feeling lied to and betrayed by the town's promises, he tries to start a coup within the settlement. Taven kills one person until he is banished from Scorpius for the rest of his life. Taven, feeling defeated, and ridiculed from his own mother in his prayers, goes back to Fornost, which would take another 2 years.

To you, Traveler's Pass, from Fornost

After what seemed like a long 3 years of learning more about Haven's culture, Taven once again embarks on another journey, this time, for military needs. Traveling east, he discovers Loyalty road. He follows the road deep into Paloro until he finds yet another town, this time, in Sanctuary. The town is named Traveller's Pass, and once he is accepted into the town, he falls in love with it. He is appointed Chief Guard of the Fortress by Ciprilu, and quickly starts working on making armor for everyone there. Days go by until Taven meets someone named Oxi. Taven and Oxi got along very well and after a few months, Taven proposed, thinking nothing of his mutations. Taven Johan and Oxi got married in the Fornost Chapel, but lived and worked in Traveller's Pass. "Traveler's Pass expanded extremely quickly" said the Duke of the region in Sanctuary Traveler's Pass was in, summarizing the major expansions made in the now large fortress town. After saving up more money from fishing, Taven went back to Fornost, but not for political reasons, but for his own. At the age of 26, Taven Johan still had his physical defects, therefore, he bought 3 bottles of a mysterious potion that was said by the Auroran doctors to, "cure physical pain and defects".
