history, baldur's gate

after having his memory put under a lock without a key, misael found himself stuck behind impossibly tall library walls, unable to leave. upset at finding himself trapped, he made quite the name for himself with his various escape attempts. he knew that his destiny was not to wither away behind the monastery walls, and he was desperate to find out what it was. his joy at being allowed to leave, however, was tempered greatly by the death of his father.

sae was more focused on doing what was right than what was smart, and often got into trouble for things that could have been easily avoided, but he never regretted his choices. the iron throne crumbled effortlessly under him, and the man he learned was his brother soon followed. even his kidnapping and subsequent torture did not destroy his spirit, and he remained kind and good even as his soul was torn away from him.

when he was offered godhood, misael was unsure of what to do, but ultimately, he knew that he had to do the only thing he could: ascend. to stay would have left him a shell of regret, and he wanted to be able to make a difference in the lives of the people he had walked among. he left behind friends and people who loved him, but as with all the choices that had come before, sae had no room for regret. he never looked back, and they say that even today misael is beloved by many worshippers.

history: forgotten realms

misael was born to parents who loved him, but were often called away on some task or another. instead, he was raised by his older brother, sylren. though he would have liked to have had his parents around, he always felt happy, until the night he was awoken to his brother shoving him into a closet and making him promise to keep quiet. still a child and terrified, he did as he was told.

he emerged the next morning to find his brother's body on the floor and no one else. his heart hardened, and, consumed by vengeance, he buried sylren and left a note for his parents, only one thing on his mind: to find his brother's murderer. he might have been consumed by vengeance completely if he had not come across a group of elven travellers heading to their home city. they invited him to return with them, and, seeing no reason to refuse, misael agreed to a short stay.

there, he met joxina, a young bard with a penchant for mischief and an easy smile. despite not wanting to get attached to anyone, he was charmed by her sweet nature and found himself unable to leave her. in a matter of months they were bonded, and before a year had passed they were wed, changing to course of his life to one focused on vengeance to one focused only on living.

love story ❤️

his whole life, misael tried to avoid lasting attachments after what had happened to his brother. and then a beautiful girl called joxina came crashing into his life and changed everything for him, forever. when they were thrown together by circumstance time after time, he could not deny that he was incredibly drawn to her. though his visit was intended to be short, he did not want to leave her, and as the pair fell deeply in love their lives became irrevocably intertwined. she cooled the hot vengeance in his heart and showed him that the world was full of beauty, not the least of which was her.

he found it difficult to leave her after that, but soon after, she realized that she hated watching him leave her behind and decided to accompany him on his travels, which overjoyed him, more than he would likely admit, even to her. joxina's sunshine and singing brought light back into his life, and as they travelled together, he realized that maybe the love he had found was more important than the revenge he had sought. and, soon, vengeance faded from his mind entirely, and he learned to focus only on her, not worrying about the past, but focusing on the present and future.

though they settled down for a time to raise their family, both of them loved travelling too much to give it up entirely, and once their children were grown, they set off once again to explore the world, loving each other in every part of it.
