Brother Xen Strasia

Cloud Brother (a.k.a. Ephemeral Poet)

Windborn are generally not shunned by the families and communities like most other magicborn, so Brother Xen’s status as a windborn monk of the Heavenly Nimbus is quite a bit rarer than one might expect. His path to the Cloud Monastery is also an uncommon one, though certainly not unheard of. Born to a human mother and an elvish father in the great walled city the Tarnished Tower, Xen’s blue skin and pale eyes exposed his magicborn status more or less from birth. His innate magical abilities had a learning curve, but were not a major burden on him or his parents, instead his issue arose when he discovered his deep love for poetry. Xen’s father was accepting of his passion, elves often fully immerse themselves in a field for years before moving on to another, but his mother wanted him to pursue something more tangible and lucrative with his extended but still very much mortal life. But Xen insisted on being a poet, writing about love, beauty, and truth. However he found his position of relative comfort made his musing ring hollow and false, for he knew nothing of truth beyond the gardens and towers he grew up amidst. And so he decided to forsake his worldly gifts in favor of spiritual enlightenment. He packed up his quill and papers and found passage on a ship to Baywatch. From there he had to blaze his own the rest of the way across the Sea of Norinia, working on a fishing boat venturing north until it was in sight of the mainland. He used his powers to glide as close to shore as he could, but quickly tired and fell into the surf. Swimming those last few hundred yards in freezing cold waters was one of the toughest tasks of his life, but he did make it to the rocky beach. Wet and shivering, he forced a layer of air between his clothes and his skin while they dried to stave off hypothermia. He wandered his way to the monastery, where he has lived as a monk ever since. He is determined to write a poem that will shine a light on the truth of existence and unite all who read it in peace and harmony. He has not started writing the poem as of yet.
