Personality

Kunoh is a fairly simple guy. He looks for and thrives on instant gratification but because he is looking for his destiny, he is always looking for things to improve on. He loves to smash bad guys but he also likes to do small things (ie. learning to read) to learn and understand the world so he can make sure he's ready to see the sign of who he is destined to be.

Kunoh is determined and strongwilled, reserved and quiet. He is not quick to anger (outside of combat situations), but he has little patience for people who get in his way.

He enjoys fighting. A lot. He loves sparring and working out and exhausting himself physically. He has a lot of direction-less energy. He wants to prove his worth - it occupies his mind most of the time - but he doesn't know how.

He doesn't enjoy arguing, mind / word games, or being in "civilised" social situations. He doesn't enjoy being addled - he's not big on drinking - because it makes it harder to stay focused on the glory and the thrill of the combat. He doesn't trust most people and finds conversations with new people to mostly be confusing or frustrating because he's not good with non verbal cues.

Background

Kunoh was raised to believe that the most important thing is always the tribe, that the greater world is vast with many friends and foes to be found, and to always keep his eyes open and be cautious.

He has been on the road for several years, typically working as a mercenary or guard to make ends meet. During this time, he has met many people. He does not like many of them, and he trusts even fewer. He does not trust easily but when he does trust someone, they become like kin.

In recent years, Kunoh has become good friends with Hyan, having learnt to trust him over the years, knowing his word is good and true, and trusting in his abilities as a hunting and traveling companion. When Kunoh was 14, as is the tribe's custom, he took part in a proving hunt and he bagged many wolves - he was shown how to make the wolves teeth he collected as trophies into a necklace as a sign of his prowess, and he carries this with him still today. This caused some tension with the elf when they first got to know each other, but over time, they have learnt to accept each other's differences in upbringing and outlook, and now, as a matter of respect, Kunoh ensures to be discrete with his necklace when the elf's wolf friend Onai is around
