BackstoryChildhood:
Caius never remembered his parents. However, he was taken in as a baby by a kind farmer family. They loved him for a time. Yet, when he grew there were certain things he was expected to do. His father really wanted him to become the fighter and warrior of the family. Caius tried to become this. However, he was never good at being a warrior. His body was weak and he kept trying to find every reason not to fight and instead tried to talk situations out. Even with bullies. Or sometimes, he would just take the pain and not fight back. Caius’ father was extremely disappointed. But his father never gave him up or physically hurt him. Instead Caius’ father would just make constant comments about how his son was useless in order to try to push Caius into becoming “better”. His mother was slightly better. She never contradicted his father but did try to promote Caius in areas he was good at. When she found out that Caius had a potential for magic, she tried to convince the local wizard to teach him a few things.
Teenage:
Caius’ father was tired of his son and threw him out of the house. He said that if Caius didn’t come back with a stronger and warrior like attitude, then he could stay out of the house for the rest of his life. His mother quickly brought Caius back into the house and put the father in his place for doing such a thing once she found out.
But from that moment on, it was clear that Caius’ stay was not going to be long. Even the mother was getting tired of not having a warrior son. Caius was still helping the family. He would go out and plow the fields, do all his chores, help with the marketing, etc. But the family had really been hoping for somebody different. A son who might just so happen to grow up and become a famous warrior. Like in all the fairytales where sons of kings were adopted into small families and became warriors. They brought glory to those storybook families. Caius did not.
When he turned 16, he discovered something odd. Nobody else had visions of the future. Growing up, whenever he touched somebody, he would glimpses of what might come in their future or see glimpses of their past. He’d never brought it up before since he assumed it was normal. When he mentioned it to the local wizard, the wizard didn’t believe him and said that such a thing was unlikely to happen in this village. From then on, he kept quiet about his abilities.
At the age of 17, Caius left the house. His visions were getting stranger and stranger. Sometimes they would come in his sleep. Sometimes he would receive one during the day. The visions were direct and clear, but there were many alternatives he could see. The future was not set. There were many paths. Like a thousand streams. With one change the water, or the person, would go down a different course. His visions were merely what was most likely to happen.
He knew he couldn’t find any answers at home, so he left. Besides things were getting strained between the family because of him. By leaving, perhaps they could all be at peace once more. His family was better off without him.
Adult:
When he turned 18, he had traveled around Adeluna a bit. His visions had calmed down and became more controlled, although they still popped up every now and then. He got a job as a gardner for a rich merchant. The rich merchant had a hired healer whom Caius worked with and learned from. He stayed working there for two more years before leaving.
At the age of 21, he decided to travel around and try to help people while trying to figure out himself.
SkillsAbilities: He is proficient in healing and regular magic. Caius is amazing with making jewelry and sewing. He is great at working with gardens.
Special Abilities: The ability to see into the future and past. Sometimes it comes as dreams. Sometimes it comes as day dreams. These future visions are not set to happen but are the most likely events to happen. He used to see visions of people’s future and past whenever he touched them but now he has controlled that power enough to not have visions at every touch.
Job: Right now he just goes from place to place, selling jewelry and trying to help people.
