Backstory

Carl Jestersmith hails from a humble farming village within the tumultuous land of Coia, known for his notorious pranks and unfaltering humor. As a young man, Carl was the village jester, navigating life with laughter against the backdrop of Coia's haunting past filled with wars and magical upheavals. His antics were well-loved by his peers but often drew the ire of the village elders. It was a life-altering encounter at the ominous T'Sarran Estate that shifted his carefree existence. Carl, vocal about the frequent raids by estate guards on local farms, went to confront them, resulting in his unceremonious imprisonment in the dreaded Pit of the Unknown by the ruthless matron, Zilvra T'Sarran. Surviving the pit honed his resolve, hardening the soft edges of his personality and shaping him into a fighter who forsook laughter for steely resilience. Now, with a countenance that speaks of hardship and determination, Carl Jestersmith roams Coia, lending aid to farmers oppressed by unjust lords. Despite his laid-back past, Carl wears seriousness as a second skin, a reminder of past transgressions and the costs of unguarded joy in a world forever on the brink of darkness.
