Sho Takashi

        Born of the union between a fire genasi and a water genasi, Sho exhibits an affinity for both fire and water manipulation. Though he is the only of his siblings that achieved that balance. Sho's father, Enji Takashi the Duke of Telflamm, married for power not love. He tried and tried again until he finally had Sho, his perfect son. The other children, Sho's siblings, were all sent away from the palace after his birth so Enji could focus on pruning Sho to become his heir. Many were given to the temple of Waukeen to become priests and or sent to the countryside to become serfs. Only the eldest, Lin, remained in the castle with Sho due to his own fearless determination. Despite their father's wrath Lin protected Sho, his only source of solace in Castle Balindre. When he became old enough to realize the extent of his father's mistreatment of his mother and his siblings, Sho sailed across the Sea of Falling Stars to find his mother. He only returned when he heard of Lin's sudden illness, hoping this wasn't another plot by his father to get him to accept a title he never wanted.
