Bio:
Syms was born, and raised in the city of New Hope, where cultures are known to mix, but identities are known just as well to clash. His mother, a Celestine scholar under Arragones, often left him in the care of a human family, who raised him as their own. Balancing Human and Syndar values, Syms received an education from The Enlightened, though his human mannerisms drew prejudice from his Syndar elders.
After completing his studies, Syms and his mother traveled together, strengthening their bond through acts of healing. This joyful time ended abruptly when his mother died from a mysterious illness while aiding disaster victims, leaving Syms devastated. Guided by his devotion to the Goddess Lunara, he joined the Golden Hand to honor her memory but grew disillusioned as the organization’s morals shifted.
Haunted by loss and an encounter with the Wraith, Syms struggled with his dual heritage and sense of belonging. Yet, the Reclaimant’s enduring legacy offered him a beacon of hope, grounding his search for connection and purpose.
