Chapter Text
Kaon’s first memories of their life were rough, to say the least. They remember a lot of yelling, and most of their memories were 5 was fuzzy or dark, like it was nighttime.
They don’t remember much about their Mom, and didn’t know if they had a Dad. If they did, he was probably dead or ran off. Probably that other voice they heard that constantly yelled.
From what they remember of their Mom, she was a kind woman. She helped them braid their hair and put accessories on them. They always described their Mom with black hair and an orange tone to her skin, along with dark orange eyes that shined. They don’t have orange eyes, they have dark green eyes that didn’t have a shine. Mom said they looked like moss.
They’ve had this mask for a while at this point, since they were 4 they’d like to say. Their mom had given it to them. It was white and a bit beaten up, and had this weird symbol on the left eye. A triangle with 3 circles along it. They never knew what it symbolized, but it made them feel safe when they put it on. Like they could take on a massive trash beast by themselves. Not like they could hah!
But, from their memories, they do know that their Mom died to something when they were 8. They don’t know if it was someone or something, but. They cried a lot when their Mom left them.
They stayed in their home until they physically couldn’t, like it made them want to vomit. They had wandered among the city they lived in after that, hoping to find someone to take them in, or at least help them. Most people took pity for them and gave them spare clothing or food, never place to sleep though.
Once, they found a lady that offered a piece of bread to them, she had blue hair and yellow eyes. They honestly had found her pretty. Anyways that’s off topic!
Kaon had been taken in by a group when they were 14, called the Raiders. The group gave them a community, and a home. As you may know, originally the group were just common thieves, stealing food, spare clothing, and if they got lucky, jewelry to sell!
They loved this group, they were practically family after all.
But.. half way the through the year, they were going to turn 17 later in, someone came in and took over as leader. Zodyl Typhon. Typhoon? They don’t remember his last name very well. They don’t like him anyways. But he came into power and slowly turned the Raiders more sinister. They know some guy named Jabber joined and Cthoni—she reminds them of that lady that gave them bread that one day—Some other kid named Fu joined around the same time, same age as them too!
And that brings them to the present, them being 17, and currently getting their ass handed to them by a random Cleaner while on a ‘simple’ mission.
