Kori Glynrel

Character Background
Kori Ruz (known ingame as MxRuz) 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. 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.
