Personal history
Shortly after Tchuchu was born, her father had to go find and fight a Dragontortle named "Houshron, the Cannibal," to protect his daughter and his village. He would never return, and Houshron can be sighted around Garathar. She has been spending her time finding someone to help her kill Houshron. However, she won't put her revenge above her people, trying to be as unbiased as possible when making decisions. In 2360wr, Sahuagin would attempt to invade and enslave Port Laurn. The fight would end in 100 Tortle Casualties, 1000 sahuagin casualties, and the Sahuagon Baron Leader would fall to Tchuchu.
In 2349, Tchuchu was struck by lightning while walking alone to an Apidite Hive. She would be healed by a dryad named Mella, who would teach Tchuchu Druidic magic.
Tchuchu would discover that one of Houshron's goons was on Garathar, a Redcap named Talks. She cannot reach him however, since he is deep in Fey territory, meaning he is deep in a very dangerous forest full of deadly creatures.
