Mental characteristics
Personal history
Ambrose Kyong was born in Hamji to Asai Kyong, a young government worker, and Qhari Sparks, an idealistic Lautian inventor travelling to Tamynia for her research. He grew up in a modest but loving home in the capital-city and, homeschooled by his mother until the age of 14, developed a recklessly curious mind and a fascination for history and lore studies. By his 18th anniversary, he was enrolled in the Willow Sanctum, traveling away from home to the Faculty of Erudition, he discovered a new-found interest for adventure and research. However, his rather shy nature and double citizenship made him an outsider in his faculty, forcing him to conduct his studies alone in the Sanctum's library.
While he was completing his third year of studies at the Faculty, his mother fell gravely ill. He rushed to her side and managed to spend a week with her before she passed away. She passed onto him a small box of trinkets she had collected over the years; among them a copper locket with a strange symbol engraved upon it. Returning to the academy, Ambrose tried to drown his grief in books and classes. His father visited him from time to time, but he had never had the same relationship as with his mother, and they often just sat in awkward silence together, unsure what to talk about. And, soon, Ambrose found himself growing bored with his studies. He instead felt drawn to the locket and the promise of adventure it presented. After a few weeks of research, he found a Lautian guild sporting the symbol as their emblem and, that night, he left the Sanctum and his birth nation, never to return.
