Personal history
Part 1
Deep in the forest of Coldwood, lies a small tribe of a gentle giant called Firbolg’s.
The cold and the thickness of the forest gave them the ultimate hideout.
Firbo was born on the warmest day of the year, which was a bit unusual for this tribe. But sometimes these things happens.
Firbo grew up confident, excited and interested in many things, for example the art of music and the history of their kind and the world. Although they had always been secluded, certain things had been passed down, so the outside world was never totally unknown. What made a difference was that his tribe was slowly dying, there were too few, for some reason in many past generations, many had actually gone adventuring or made it to other tribes. Firbolgs are a kind race so moving around the different tribes were never really an issue.
Firbo turned out to be one of the most gifted amongst the clan, despite his very young age. He could talk, he could sing, he was almost like a jack of all trades.
One day he suffered an unexpected wound to his throat, leaving his voice light and almost like the one of a females, but he never slowed down and worked with it until he had it all together once again.
The clan leaders were facing difficult decisions, and one day when Firbo turned 18, they took him to a private meeting, gave him more details about their history, giants, humankind and items spread around the world. «But these are all folk tales?» «Some say they are, some say they are not, but now. You must take this.»
This changed everything for Firbo.
«"Passed on from generation to generation is a small adamantine amulet. Long history tells that this amulet should be guarded by all means. Legends from long ago tell this being a piece to unlocking an ancient weapon to destroy the world of serpents known as dragons".
«We can no longer look after it, so now it’s your turn.»
After many hours of back and forth, they finished. Firbo had gained new purposes. And despite the situation in their tribe, it was time to go. It was bittersweet to leave, and he swore to never let the stories of his roots die. And to help humankind see the real perspective to Firbolgs.
And maybe even other species...
Part 2.
Education
His education has been short lived.
He received education in his clan about the importance of nature and what he can do for nature, giving him simple abilities to communicate with creatures.
He also can distinguish poisonous plants from the healthy ones to eat.
He had a natural knack for music, which he continued to learn on his own once he left his clan. Learning by listening to others, going to some libraries and experimenting.
He hopes to continue to learn this way throughout his life. And from people he meets during his travels.
Mental Trauma
He had a rough time in the real world before meeting the grumpy dwarf Dirinor.
He often slept outside alone and had to do a lot of work for little back.
It didn't ruin him but sometimes he can be a bit jumpy and deny it.
Morality & Philosophy
Still in his teenage years, Firbo believes firlmy in love and mercy. No one should be left on the sideline and be treated unfairly. Although he chose not to become a Paladin like many Firbolgs, he wanted to approach the world differently.
Through his music, he wants to reach deeper into the soul than anyone else, with the help of his Iallanis.
With the rocky history of Giants, he wants to travel the world proving to humankind that Firbolgs, as disgusted as they might be, shouldn’t be grouped with orcs and the like.
He often prays to the goddess Iallanis, a godess of love and mercy often worshipped by the Firbolg.
