Character Name: Adhaburefu Kifu Playby: Blizzard's Witch Doctor Age: 64 Height: 5'2 Weight: 95lbs Eyes: Grey Hair: None Build: Skin and Bones Gender: Male Distinctive Characteristic(s): Kifu may look small, old and insignificant but he uses this to his advantage to strike unsuspecting enemies. He also mumbles to himself and laughs a lot, I mean a lot.
Personal History: Living in the Torajan jungles is not an easy nor posh life. There is constant war amongst the Umbaru people over land, pride, and worthy sacrifices. The clan of The Five Hills and the clan of The Seven Stones were constantly at war with each other.
The Leader of The Five Hills was named Epesi Kali meaning quick strength. Epesi's tribe was known for using brute force and fire to overcome their opposers. Epesi's wife Mdhibit Kali gave birth to their son and rightful heir of the Five Hills Clan. Much to Epesi's dismay, their son was a "puny little runt". This greatly bothered Epesi and he ordered his wife to kill their son so that they would not be shamed by his small stature.
Mdhibit would not kill her own son so instead she went into the Seven Stone's territory where she had a childhood friend, an elder who kept to himself in his older age, avoiding the conflict between the two clans. She gave her son to him where he could stay protected and unnoticed by Epesi and the members of the Seven Stones. Hodari Mzee took in this child as if his own and promised Mdhibit that he would protect him as long as he lived.
Being a founding member of the Seven Stones Clan, to which he had no affiliation with anymore, Hodari was the most gifted Umbaru when it came to poisons and the Ghost Trance. He had decided since size was no matter with these techniques he would teach the child all of his knowledge. He named the child Adhaburefu Kifu meanig slow painful death. Kifu began his training with poisons. He would be injected with small amounts of different poisons to slowly increase his own body's resistance to them. After this, Hodari taught him how to use these poisons with other objects to be able to inflict his enemies with the poisons. After 15 long years, Kifu had finally mastered all there was to learn about posions.
The next step in his training was the Ghost Trance. The Ghost Trance was the most complicated and powerful technique an Umbaru can learn. The Ghost Trance is the ability to cross over into the Mbwiru Eikura or the "unformed world". This is where the Umbaru drew all of thier power from. It was a difficult and daunting task. He sarted with a 30 day fast. During this time Kifu sat alone in a room in complete silence, channeling spirits and crossing over to the unformed land. He would repeat this process fro the next 20 years, fasting and meditating with very little interaction inbetween. He was now able to cross over to the "unfomred land" bringing back zombies of all sort to do his bidding. He was also able to see other souls of people who have passed and could drain the souls from the living.
Once his training was complete, Hodari had told Kifu his ture origins and that Epesi Kali was actually his father. He had told him his father wanted Kifu killed because he was to small and that his mother had brought him here for protection. Later that night a groud of the Seven Stones clan came to Hodari's house. They had found out that he was not only protecting but teaching the rightful heir to the Five Hills clan. As they broke through the door, Hodari had told Kifu to run and that he would hold them off. Kifu ran as far as he could but not knowing where he was going to. He had decided that he would return to the Five Hills Clan. He had figured that now that he was so powerful that his father would respect him and welcome him back. Much to his dismay, when he had arrived at Epesi Kali's house, Kali was not excited about his return. Kali was not impressed with Kifu's skills, he still saw him as a puny little runt. He turned Kifu away still embarassed by him and his small stature. He had told him that he could never be the leader of the Five Hills. Kifu fled the Torajan jungles ashamed of what his father had said and made his way to Lut Gohlein.
Kifu spent most of his time in Lut Gohlein fasting and meditating. Often he would find innocent children who needed help and he would aid them. He would help them get food and water and find shelter much to the sacrifice of his own food and housing. He would also have to hide or disguise himself from the general public. Many people's preconcieved notions of the Umbaru were that they were Evil people themselves. They did not like the fact that the Umbaru would bring back their loved ones to do their own dirty work and the idea of sacrificing humans did not sit easily with them either. Kifu spent the next 30 years of his life living in obscurity. Constantly on the balance on life and death.
30 years of solitude, hunger, no sense of purpose, and no home had taken it's toll on Kifu. He had started going mad. Laughter would pour from his mouth anytime someone would try to talk to him, scaring off the children he use to help, increasing his despair even more. On the verge of death, lying in the streets of Lut Gohlein, Kifu was meditating when Hodari had spoken to him in the "Unformed Land". He had told Kifu about a group of people known as the Knights of the Burning Blade. They were a group of mercenaries who sought out demons and planned to destroy all that was evil in the world. Kifu thought that if he could join this group he could not only restore confidence and the strength needed to reclaim his land but he also saw it as an opportunity to prove to everybody what the Umbaru were capable of and what they stood for. He sought out the members of the Knights of the Burning Blade and one by one proved himself worthy of them through ability, teamwork and willingness for self-sacrifice for the greater good. He had joined the ranks of the Knights of the Burning Blade and was on his way to reclaim what is rightfully his.
Special Training: Kifu is well trained with both poisons and his ghost trance.
Weaponry: Sacrificial dagger, ceremonial staff and ingredients needed for his spells.
Armour: Most importantly is his mask that he uses to taunt his enemies. He also wears leather straps around his wrists and ankles and wears a decorated loin-cloth.
Goals and Ambitions: Both to earn his Father's respect and become rightful heir to his land and restore the reputation of the Umbaru people.
