Kusetare I

Kusetare I is the King of Kurosekai, and leader of the Union of the West. A powerful warrior, he has been one of the instrumental figures of Gernon history in the years after the Scientarian Revolution. An anti-scientarian fighter and monk in his youth, he ascended to the throne of his biological father after the battle with Kalderus in 15 asr.

Early Life and First Missions
Born with the name Kuso Tare (a horrible insult in his mother's native Oyashiman meaning Shithead), he was orphaned after his mother died giving birth to him at the Monastery of One Thousand Moons. Given a less insulting variation of his name, he was raised by the monks, learning hand to hand combat. He grew to have uncommonly good looks and had a sturdy body. He was quite tall and had silver eyes and hair, a trait that made him somewhat unusual amongst humans. He soon became quite skilled at fighting and gained a lot of praise from the older monks and druids. He had a pure heart and an unwavering resolve. When he grew older, his weekly task was to travel down the Steps to the Sky to get provisions from the town of Nuhaven at the base of the mountain. This help him build his sturdiness to an even higher level. However, during one of his trips, a tradesman introduced alcohol to the young Kusetare. He instantly grew attached to the drink, even to the point of obsession. Kusetare learned that he was able to handle far more alcohol and receive far fewer negative consequences than other humans. Kusetare also gained a close bond to his mentor Luang Fo, the monastery elder and leader. When Kusetare grew even older, the other elders learned of his alcohol obsession. While alcohol was not strictly forbidden in the monastery, the elders frowned upon his overindulgence. This led to him becoming a bit of a black sheep amongst his order, and eventually left to explore the world.

Kusetare was taking on random mercenary work for a few months around Kurosekai when Alek Tellumnar's attack on the city as part of the revolution. He and thousands of other citizens were forced to flee east, and eventually found himself doing some minor labor for the coalition army gathering around the Dwarven King in Exile, mustering west of the Mesorban town of Hollowpond.

Kusetare was the bastard son and apotential heir to Saul Hurin, the rightful ruler to Kurosekai. His mother was an Oyashiman harem slave who King Saul had bought. She had escaped and died in childbirth in Nuhaven. His adventures took him from Nuhaven, to Kurosekai, Coralis, Sephora, Skarlsboro, the Whispering Woods, Calyan, and many other fantastic locations. He was involved in Campaigns 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Kusetare was involved in the quest to finally rid Phentis and his devil army from Gernon and gained a wish from Lucifer for helping to take down his unruly subordinate. He wished for the restoration of all the dead that Phentis killed in his rampage. Since then, he has married Rachel Savoy, had a son named Masara, and been the benevolent, though consistently drunk, ruler of the Union of the West. His family has limited him to one cup of alcohol a day, but he found a loophole by having a massive cup that holds 10 gallons built especially for his use.
