BackgroundWhen the nation of Solasia was beginning its descent, the first citizens to come under suspicion for the poisoning of Council members were the shadow dragons. Foreseeing the direction the nation was taking, the L'Mahreens fled from the capital, heading south to take refuge in Riva. However, as Solasia gave way to infighting and crumbled into ruin, anti-dragon sentiment amongst the Rivan dragoons grew to a feverish height. Soon, the L'Mahreens found themselves in a dangerous situation. They were caught in the land between Hell's Peak and Szezle, which was newly seized by Riva, now in a country severely dangerous to travel in. Fearing for the safety of their two sons, Jaan and Joseph, the L'Mahreens decided to risk settling in the land rather than to traverse it. They made a home in the edge of the mountains, sufficiently distant from most human settlements, hoping to be able to lie low and wait out the hostilities--or, at the very least, live in isolated peace, undisturbed by humankind. Soon after settling in the northern reaches of Riva, the L'Mahreen's third son, Jared, was born, and later, their daughter, Joy. The four children were raised and kept in isolation from the rest of Riva during their young childhood. Later, only the oldest, Jaan, was allowed to travel any length of distance away from home. When the L'Mahreen family needed supplies that could not be gathered immediately around their lairs, Jaan was the one sent out to obtain them. Any other errands which involved travel fell on his shoulders, as well. One day, however, Jaan hurt himself in one such errand, and was too injured to move. Jared--deemed more responsible for the task than his older brother Joseph--was sent out on an errand to contact the new Rivan government. Supposedly, the new government was opposed to the Rivan dragoons of old...and a segment of Rivan dragoons had taken camp dangerously near to the L'Mahreen's home. Jared was sent out to inform the government of this situation, and--with luck--obtain their help in ousting the dragoons. After completing this task--successfully, although with questionable personal success--Jared returned home...only to be sent out to search for his younger sister, Joy. She had, once again, decided to sneak away from the homelairs and go traipsing about dangerous lands without a care in the world. However, not completing this task in a timely enough manner for his parents, he soon ran into his brother Joseph, who was sent to find the two of them... Then, through some great twists of logic, and with no little help from a traveler named Chandler (RPer--Archmage), Joy managed to convince her brothers that traveling to Doma City was a very good idea indeed! Or, at least, in the case of Joseph, a trial of manhood. And so, Jared the MIGHTY found himself within Doman borders! RPs
