Unfortunately, he doesn't remember his real name. About two year's ago he awoke in the midst of the wreckage of a desert caravan. Much to his dismay he had no memory of how he got there or who he was. It was miraculous enough that he survived whatever had hit the caravan as he was the only person left amidst it's ruin, half buried under a desert wagon with a severe head injury. He searched and searched but was unable to find anyone else who was in the caravan. Whatever had attacked it had left behind no bodies and he couldn't find tracks of his people or their assailant leading away. Any sign of whatever happened was washed away by the shifting sands of the desert during the several days he estimated he was unconscious under the crushed wagon. He wandered the desert for weeks before meeting anyone when he stumbled into a meeting between two desert caravans. Seeing that one was trying to bully the other he stepped in and announced that if they persisted in trying to take advantage of the weaker caravan he would teach them the consequences of unfair trade. It sparked a brief argument in which he slowly started raising his voice. After less than a minute he simply stated, "Alright, but remember I warned you." and suddenly lashed out with the twin blades he had salvaged from the scene of his awakening. He cut down the thuggish representative from the aggressive caravan and the two caravans swiftly resumed negotiations for trade with much fairer terms. Afterwards the leader of the caravan he had helped said to him. "You are just like the rattlesnake. Warning your prey with a slowly rising rattle before striking, swift and precise." Thinking on that and unable to recall his real name, when they asked for his name he called up the word for rattlesnake in his native tongue and simply replied 'Niski'. He has gone by that name ever since. He wandered the desert for almost a year in search of who he was but eventually he gave up hope of ever finding sign of his past. When he did that he signed on as a guard for a merchant caravan he found crossing the desert. The caravan led him to the guild who were impressed by his service to their trading partners and asked if he would be interested in joining them. As the person who was attempting to recruit him and Niski was a shameful but harmless flirt. As a person he has a strong sense of right and is always quick to intervene when he witnesses any acts of bullying. He always tries to defuse such situations peacefully but tends to strike suddenly if he feels a peaceful resolution is unlikely. He is a shameless flirt who is for reasons beyond his comprehension greatly attracted to humanoid female members of races other than his own. He suspects it is derived from the combination of his lack of memory of anyone of his own race and a latent buried need to connect to someone to fill the void left by losing his memory and whatever life he left behind somewhere lost in the desert. Description: Niski stands at a prominent 5'6" (which is tall for his race). He has short well cropped brick red hair with short well cropped sideburns (which is uncommon for his race). His eyes glow with a yellowish orange glow surrounding his wide cat-like pupils. His skin is a light glistening sand color that almost looks golden tan in the shade. He typically wears light earthy colors in the tan and beige spectrum but will always attempt to wear a cloak that blends with the potential background of the destinations of their missions. He still has a long scar hidden behind his left ear which disappears under his short hair at the back of his head. </blockquote>
