Born deep in the Heart land jungles, Zakaarus was always surrounded by nature and its infinite mysteries. From the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze, to the influence of the moon upon the ocean tide, he had nothing but unending curiosity of the world around him. Such was his dedication to understanding the world around him that he had eventually learnt to predict what others deemed entirely out of their hands, such as the weather, or whether luck was on their side.
And yet still, there was one thing that interested more. Life.
For all the complexity of the natural world, living beings - their minds and souls - stood out from the rest. Each animal containing their own inner world, full of unique experiences. Even in himself were there still mysteries - such as why he found satisfaction in learning.
It was only natural that he observed the animals around him. First, their appearance and physical form. Then, their minds, the knowledge they held. Finally, their souls. It was through this study that he became able to experience the form of others, in body, and spirit.
After fourty years he first came into contact with the descendants - a group of Vrondi explorers. Sensing their intelligence, he was drawn to them even as they left his home and returned to their own.
He now knew why his curiosity could never be sated. His hoard was the experiences he kept within himself.
Almost four hundred years later, he still travels the world, walking among descendants.
So far he has:
* Has been studying living things for centuries, gaining an understanding of the physical form and soul.
This has allowed him to hone his ability to shapeshift as a dragon to extend to animals and other descendants he has seen.
* He has a natural affinity for sensing life and emotions that he has since trained into true mind reading
* With his study of the minds and souls of others and his own, he has the ability to perceive and think as others would by projecting himself into their soul. This is particularly useful for learning new skills, though he enjoys any new experience.
* He can combine these techniques to imitate others in ways that deceive more than just sight.
* Has joined the Magoi for basic training in magic centuries ago under a different name. Most living members would not know him, though, and he likely would simply re-apply. His formal training is lacking as most of his knowledge is through "self" study. He has learnt basic divination and enchantment such as minor predictions and charms while studying concepts that would be helpful to his natural abilities.
* Lived a year inside a Sol hunter when he was 45 years old, learning basic survival skills such as gathering, cooking and healing.
* Volunteered as a healer and aide for the Taxis in times of need.
Motivation: To experience many lives among the descendants and learn about the world.
