Name: Keshi Tarsa
Nickname or Title: Keshi
Gender: Male
Sexual Orrientation: Bisexual
Age: 12
Weakness: Very little social skills: Due to Keshi's life up until this point he tends to avoid people so has little understanding of social norms and what is considered acceptable behavour and what is not.
No formal education: Keshi was born on the Danae so he never learnt to read or write or do maths or anything that most people who arrive take for granted.
Does not easily trust other people: In his experience, other humans either mean easy food or a quick death, so unless they appear to be easy targets, Keshi generally stays away from them.
Afraid of water: Due to nearly being drowned as a child, Keshi has an innate fear of any body of water and will do anything to avoid it.
Strengths: Survival: Keshi has lived on his own in this unforgiving environment nearly his entire life so he has learnt what is safe to eat and approach and what is not.
Climbing: Like a monkey, Keshi climbs up high for safety and to sleep. He can climb practically any surface with ease and swiftness that most would struggle to match.
Hand to hand fighting: Keshi is very quick and skilled at fighting with his bare hands and feet, not having learnt to use any kind of gun or weapon. It has ensured he has survived as long as he has.
Throwing: Keshi has learnt to throw stones with great acuracy, part of his survival skills and part of his fighting skills. He wouldn't have a clue how to transfer this to any kind of man-made weaponry though.
Weapons Skills: None apart from his fists, feet and teeth.
Relationship Status: Single (he's only a child afterall)
Family: Unknown to Keshi.

Personality: Keshi is extremely curious and without his knowledge of social norms, has only his own experiences to learn from. Hence, if he is around another person he will often invade their privacy to sate his curiosity. He is, however, cautious as well, though this trait is borne through experience. Often, until he feels it is safe, he will watch from a safe distance, often up in a tree where he feels safest, until he judges it safe to move closer or till he has learnt what he wanted to know. When he fights he tends to enter somewhat of a berserk kind of mode and even after the fight it will take him some time to calm down and become himself again, not remembering anything of the fight afterwards. He doesn't like not remembering things so he prefers to just avoid fighting if he can.
Background: Keshi's parents came from a woman of the desert tribes and a father of the rainforest. Kept only for three years, he was then thrown into a large lake, to live or die as he would. He nearly did die two, his lungs were full of water and conciousness nearly left him when he was pulled from the water by a long-haired wolf. This wolf and the rest of the pack became his family for a few years and he learnt to survive on his own with them.
This life ended when three humans entered their territory and attacked. Keshi was away at the time and heard the yelp of a pack mate. He came running back, full of rage and ready to attack but by the time he got there it was too late. Three men had killed the wolves he had called family and were in the process of skinning them. Keshi attacked. He managed to kill one of them, but the other two escaped, carrying the dead wolves with them to make their coats or whatever they wanted with them. Keshi was alone once more.
For a little over a year he lived on his own till one day his curiosity brought him to another two humans. These ones were having fun tormenting something small and black. Haunted with memories of his wolf family being killed, he attacked, only after he had killed both of them finding out that it was a tiny black kitten they had been tormenting. He took her with him and nursed her back to health. She has a crick in the end of her tail as a mark of her torment but otherwise healed fine and wont be out of Keshi's sight, often sitting on his shoulder. That was three months ago, and he has a new companion once more he named Llael.
