DS:Nardu Miri-miri/History

From Drinking and Dragons

Nardu hails from a lush world, raised and trained by it's tribes to be at harmony with the universe. During the rituals that would lead to his adulthood, Nardu was told the story of how he came to the tribe from beyond the moon. Visitors from off-world were not uncommon, but fairly rare. During one of these visits two ships were seen chasing and firing beams of light at each other, until one was badly damaged and crashed. Amoung the wreckage were a few survivors, including an orphaned infant.

The tribe hid the survivors well, and the other ship departed. Over the next few years the infant was raised by <NAME>, a kind but barren woman. The next time that a ship from beyond came, the survivors were happy for rescue. Nardu, now three, was given the choice to return to the black of space or stay with <NAME>. Nardu decided to let fade decide, and asked the village shaman to guide him by rolling the bones.

Being told the stories caused memories of this time to flood back into Nardu's mind. He ventured to the decades old wreckage and searched for clues. The only clue to his hertiage that he found was a single photo of a beautiful woman with a baby, and a uniformed man holding her. Burned by the crash, only the woman's face could be made out.

Nardu once again asked the shaman for guidance and the bones told him that it was time for him to leave and quest for the rest of his family. Nature and the universe will guide Nardu through the rest of the rites of adulthood during this journey. So Nardu ventured forth into the foreign realm of space, searching for his family...
