Mitsugi Sosa

History

Mitsugi grew up in a smaller village in Manata, not having any

family and being a half oni he was exiled and treated like shit by the other people in his village. This didn't stop him from growing up wanting to protect those around him and gain their respect through his actions not his race after years of training he became the captain of the guard of his town and protected the people from multiple attacks from beasts monsters and devils until they respected and trusted him with their lives. His honor in and out of battle lead him to become one of Helms chosen and became a paladin of the god Helm to protect whoever he could. during this time Mitsugi met a Teifling woman named Iyona and fell in love after spending years together they had a son named Sozen. Mitsugi spent years training his son up to be a warrior and when he reached the age of 12 he was a fine young man and a stellar fighter, life was good for Mitsugi he had a happy home life and was the most well respected man in the village but this wouldn't last. One day in the coming months his village would be attacked yet again this time by a squad of demons being lead by an oni. These demons and the guard would go back and forth for hours but the guard being overwhelmed by the demons, the guard would be ultimately slaughtered until Mitsugi was the last one standing against this oni but would be easily overpowered until he was nearly dead. But instead of killing him outright the oni would put a curse on Mitsugi. this curse was especially potent when it was first cast on him causing him to go berserk and attack the people of his town, after about an hour of him slaughtering his people against his will he came out of his stupor and saw the carnage that he had cause around him. The people all ran or watched in fear all the respect he had earned over his long life was squashed in a moment as on lookers called him a demon. After this rampage Mitsugi left his village broken and defeated and lost his connection to his god. He left wandering for a while as a sword for hire just to get enough money to survive.

After a while of wandering for awhile until he met a man named Jim, he would be hired by this man to help him save a village in danger. when they arrived they found the village in flames. when they entered the village they found numerous dead bodies and buildings in flame. in the biggest house in the village they found a chimera, this beast would go to knock Jim down numerous times but the parties healer would bring him up, mitsugi got hit with the dragon heads fire breath and went berserk jumping onto its back forcing it into the walls by forcing the heads different ways. After some time the building would have deep structural damage and Mitsugi would cut a ceiling beam down causing the entire building to collapse onto of him and Jim. Mitsugi would ultimately die under the ruble while the villagers were able to drag Jim out. Jim would then wake and take Mitsugi back to a healer to be revived. After the fight the village people would gift Mitsugi a great sword that was designed to freeze those who it would hit, Jim would also leave to return to Libertatem in witch Mitsugi would eventually follow.

After awhile on Libertatem Mitsugi went on a quest with some others to investigate some rumors of devils or demons in the area. the party would find 3 demons in the area. they easily dispatched one but the next two would come to kill almost the entire party once again leaving only Mitsugi alive. he killed the final demon with ease but was left with 4 dead comrades. He brought these bodies back to town but he attempts to find a way to revive them were futile. he would go to a local temple that night and speak to a paladin of this church this man explained to him that he could take a path to redemption to find his way back to his former life. the clerics of this church would remove his curse and this would lead Mitsugi on a holy path to redemption. Within the week Mitsugi would go on yet another quest into a dungeon to find some goblins that had been causing trouble. When they arrived they had a trouble making party member that went in and accidently released several werewolves onto the party, they would come down on top of the party and would of easily killed if not for the god helm intervening at this moment. Seeing Mitsugi's drive to save in his allies Helm would grant him his abilities as a paladin once again along with his favor. Helm would give him the strength to continue fighting, Mitsugi would fight to protect the rest of the party slaying the werewolves one by one repeatedly going down and being brought back up by the parties cleric until the entire group of werewolves died and they fled the dungeon.

After this battle Mitsugi would have to repay his god, this would pertain taking several children to an orphanage in Lauderdale. He was also told that one of the children was corrupted by a demon and if they had fully lost control they would be lost and would have had to be put down. On their way up to Lauderdale they encountered a demon that was put down by Mitsugi and his party during the battle one of the orphans named Hate would run around the battlefield trying to get a good look at everything. once the battle against the demon ended on of the children on his cart transformed into a demon themselves and unfortunately had to be killed. After the battle Hate having seeing her friend die became extremely sad and Mitsugi would try to comfort her to no avail. After the fight they made their way to Lauderdale with no more problems. And when they arrived Mitsugi realized that he saw a lot of his own son in hate and decided to adopt her giving her the new name Kozue.

Mitsugi would go on multiple other quests most uneventful until the great purge of the Magi, seeing the giant explosions in Calaban Mitsugi opted to sneaking in through the city's sewer system. He would find multiple other people that were in need of escaping Libertatem and attempt to lead them out the sewers the way he came. Unfortunately Guard would beat him to the exit and he was force to lead them down another uncharted path. this path lead to the thieves guild where Mitsugi would see someone he hasn't seen in a long time, The Lady of the Lake she would give him an object to avoid the scrying spell and give him safe passage off of the continent in exchange for helping her build an army on Manata to help in the war on Libertatem. He reluctantly agreed and returned to his home continent of Manata for the first time in 25 years.
