I am a satyr born in the fae wilds long before the convergence.  My life in the wilds naturally left me lacking in social tact and many basic skills but provided me with a joy of simple pleasures and a perpencity for mischeif.  After the convergence, wanderlust lead meout of the wilds where I met my wife Tenneisa.  After some time traveling we found ourselve in Terre Du Sud amongst The Great Herd of Ordo Cervi in the year 1022. 

In 1023, there was a great schism within the herd.  One side chose to turn coat and fight for the empire.  The other, including myself, stood loyal to our chosen King.  The one they call "The Breaker of Chains".  Despite this civil war, I refused to fight my brothers, however misguided, and actively avoided them on the field of battle, hoping that one day the Great Herd would unite again.  The clashing of still has ended and, with our Herd still split, it feels no ground has been gained and blood was spilt in vain.

In the year 1024.  The Great Herd, though on different sides of the battle field, were no longer in civil war.  I, still refusing to fight my brothers, looked for a way to make a difference, to help carve the path forward for the Red Stag but also the path back for those misguided by silky words.  Loyalty, Honesty, Integrity, Bravery, Sacrifice.  These are the values that are my guidance.  Again the clashing of steel has ended and sadly our misguiding brothers have disolved themselves into the darkness that called them.  My brothers they are no longer.  I shall mourn their loss and take joy in the end of a burden.

In the year 1025 I found myself intregued with learning as much as I could about these humans I have come to love so much.  I wished to revel with them, fight with them, sing with them.  Most of this year is a blur of war din and musical merriment.  In the moments of clearity I remember the patience of my wife teaching me to read and sign my name.  The stories this unlocked for me, brought memories of tales told to me by my grandfather.  Stories about great mythical heroes and the discoveries of supernally brilliant men.  From there I spent the remainder of 1025 and all of 1026 sequestered away, diving deep into tomes of knowledge. My desire was to not only further my understanding of war — its strategies, causes, outcomes, and ramifications — but also of science, history, mathematics, philosophy and the movement of the heavens.
