Hoshkean is. He simply, is. He did not grow up. He did not have a father
or a mother. Hoshkean came into being, was created, as he is. This is not
to say he is immortal or timeless. He bleeds, sleeps, sweats and eats as
any mortal. His muscles burn and he feels the toll of time.

He has convictions and belief. Strong ones. He simply does not have a
past to speak of. He is bent on the Destruction of the wicked. He is
created to bring redemption through death to those who walk in darkness.
He is strong and savage and will not grant mercy nor quarter to those who
steep themselves in the wicked.

Hoshkean feels most at home in the Lyceum and feels almost as if he came
to life from the pages of a book there. He has spent some times of his
youth steeping himself in the texts, the closest thing to home that he
has. To this end, he has fervently read the texts that Shokai wrote, or
those that concern Shokai and the Maran. He believes that it is his duty
to act as a Maran. As stated in the Maran Kal in the Lyceum, Maran means
Wrath in Shokai's old tongue. Per the Kal, Hoshkean views any and all who
would oppose the Light his enemy. The wicked deserve only a swift death.
Everything else about him, is secondary to this duty to the Maran. It is
convenient then, that Hoshkean does not have baggage or attachment to the
past.

Hoshkean wishes to live an entire life devoted to the cause of the Maran,
and once it ends he hopes to be reincarnted as the Spirit of Wrath, or
the Maran Tara'bal, and continue to fight. This singular cause of the
destruction of the wicked is what drives him. To this end, he has humbly
taken the last name Rai, in honor of Sune Rai, the legendary Captain of
the Maran and Shrine Guardian of Shokai.

He knows there is a chance that some may wish to extinguish his Light,
prevent him from living this life, and return him to the inanimate pages
of the Lyceum. This is not an option for Hoshkean, not while so much
darkness walks.

Hoshkean is one dimensional in many respects. And that's fine. His
purpose is singular. Destroy the wicked at all costs save one. The
sanctity of the Light.

His zealousness lends itself only to one profession- that of a Shaman.

OOC Note: I arbitrarily imagined Shokai's Shaman Paths as Seraph's Wing,
Desolation and Divine Anger to help me brainstorm the character.
Obviously any path is a gift and the Imms doing the challenge may have
their own thought, but just thought I'd share where I was coming from as
far as thematically/in my head!
