Combat skills w/ knives and short bladed weapons | Crafting skills | Culinary Ability
Ivory joined Lazarus' early on, much like the goddess' adopted daughters Vermilion and Luminous. Unlike them however the jackal's world was not burned by seemingly endless nuclear war nor was it left haunted by uncontrollable and unethical scientific progress. Instead Ivory came from a more peaceful planet, but that did not nessicarily make it safe.
When they were young disease ravaged the continent, famine and mass death followed in its wake and many died. Although the jackal and their parents were spared many others were not so fortunate. The infrastructure of their undeveloped world began to crack at its foundations from the strain.As they grew older the sights were often the same, villages and towns failing to regain their former status. Powerful city-states would seal their gates and only let a select few inside in order to preserve what they had left, while the coastlines found themselves ravaged by pirates and ships from other more fortunate landmasses.
As the days went on Ivory found themselves between two worlds. A clean one, full of hardwork and happiness, and a bloody one, full of high earning but messy work. They would travel from village to village, constructing new homes and structures in order to help improve what little remained. Eventually, earning the nickname 'Lattice' for their weaving work. An uncommon thing, as often the people of the villages did not have second names, for this was something often reserved for those in charge of the people of city-states.
While at other hours they continued the work of carving markings into the backs of bandits, cutting down those who would take advantage of the dire situation the lands found themselves in. However as they years wore on, this took a toll on them. The situation did not seem to change now that the world was slowly improving. Now matter how much the people and villages recovered, bandits and major crimes in the countryside remained a constant and powerful threat. With the peaceful passing of their mother one autumn, the jackal could do this no longer.
Fighting and defense instead became an occasional and rare thing. Lattice Ivory now remained wandering and crafting, improving things where they could and only intervening with violence when necessary. They learned to cook and care for the birds instead, taking on a peaceful boring life. They had become tired of this world and its troubles but continued on they best that they could.
It was then that the jackal saw them. Lazarus had arrived on the world with a young Luminous and Vermilion. The trio seeking to trade peacefully while at the sametime volunteering to help improve some of the villages in the region. They stayed for a few weeks at a time, only to leave and come back throughout the year and life became much more stable for the people in the area.
Ivory on the other hand could no longer stand to be on this planet. They worked themselves into every bit of volunteer work they could with the travelers, fascinated with their technology and knowledge. Before they were set to leave again they begged the trio to take them and explained their story, as much as they enjoyed helping the people of this world there was nothing left for them. The goddess took pity on Ivory and offered to bring the jackal along.
Under Lazarus' care Ivory eventually managed to set up large aviaries and find themselves cooking for the others. They wandered from world to world with them caring for people and sometimes.... sometimes, returning to their old ways of combat.
