Ikaroth Borantti

From a young age Ikaroth had always been fascinated with cultures and creatures. As a freshly hatched Tortle, he could be found watching the tiny bugs crawling around the nearby swamp and copying their movements. On his first birthday he decided to wander further than the swamp, to seek more bugs. Entranced by the myriad of small rodents and large beetles he stomped his way deeper and deeper into swamp as it slowly but surely transformed into a forest. As he kept walking, and forest turned to dessert, the beetles and rodents turning into scorpions and snakes and other creatures. Night turns to day and back to night as childish wonder compells him forward. After three nights of walking and following and chasing things, little Ikaroth suddenly stopped and passed out from exhaustion. Waking up some time later, Ikaroth found himself lying on a stone floor. Groggily Ikaroth tried to get to his feet stealthy, as his shell scrapes loudly across the floor. Waking from its slumber, a tall half elf wearing robes made from weaved vines walked over and lifted him up, his tiny little feet dangling. The half elf placed him down infront of a fire place and served him a nice meal of thick oat soup and a cup of hot seaweed tea. For the next 300 years Ikaroth spend his days learning from his saviour, a Half Elf Druid going by the name of Harribo Borantti. Those years spent under his tutorage were the best time of his life as he studied many creatures, and experienced the many different cultures this world had to offer.

As a pastime, he spend his days carving things out of stone. His room inside of Harrubo's cave was full of small stone stautes of every creature he had met and a few patterned pieces based on elvish, dwarvish, Yuanti, dragon born, Tortle, and goblin cultural designs. With help from Harribo, Ikaroth decides to to venture out to explore more designs. Sent out to Find the Faction Archeart Forgers in a Town called Dire Arch with a note from his mentor, He left one final peice of stone in his room for Harribo to find, A 3 ft tall statue of Harribo surrounded by intricately designed baby tortles with different designs based on  each culture they have experienced together. As he makes his way towards the meeting point Harribo told him he cant help but feel giddy about learning about new cultures and meeting all the new people.
