Zedeeru

Early Life
Zedeeru was the child of Belkatar the Woodcutter, and because his older brother was chosen as a Gedur, he was the oldest of his brothers who were to learn his father's profession. As such, he was trained by his father in the art of cutting wood, his childhood mainly consisting of him constantly exhausting himself trying to keep up with his father despite his child's body, gradually overtaking the old man.

Exile
The chief's third son, Kuzad, had always been somewhat odd, and tended to scare the other villagers with his seemingly random manner. However, his odd behavior was usually overlooked due to who his father was. Thus, when Kuzad killed his wife in town one day as she was performing the life ceremony, Zedeeru's life was forever changed. At his reckoning, Kuzad refused to fight, not caring about his fate. In a fit of rage, Zedeeru took his ax to Kuzad, declaring he would rather become an Alkatzerii in his place than let the man who killed his wife and child freely walk away.
