Not much is spoken of Avante's past, though there is a fraction of it that is important. Originally hailing from the Caucasus region, Avante's mother fled the country due to persecution by the Lion tribes there. Having landed in the nearby Mongolian territory, Avante's mother died soon after due to a festering wound and lack of proper nutrition to recuperate. Needless to say Avante was left in the care of a wandering tribe there who practiced druid and shamanism. With a vendetta held deep in his heart, Avante was trained from a young age in combat for a well rounded vessel of shamanism. Though many of the lessons focused on defense, rather than offense, the hyena adolescent put many years into personal pursuits. Despite humble and altruistic beginnings, the dark hand of revenge has always had a grasp on the hyena, driving him away from the pacifist ideology and homeland. |
That aside, Avante has several vices. Restraint is lost on the hyena who, if pushed far enough, will exact damage in a brutal fashion. Combat is loved to the point of bloodlust when they pass the threshold of civility, for no logical reason aside pleasure. Hallucinogenics have become a huge detriment to this fighter. Keeping a level head is important to Avante and he often mediates through both natural and drug induced means. Though these habits derived from religious practice, his inward desires have begun to slowly tether spiritual ties and leave the influences less beneficial. Though Avante is not racist on most grounds, he has a natural contempt for lions. |
