Karystal lived a rough childhood. Born to a human father and sylvan mother, she has never felt as though she fit in. Her father abused her as well as her mother, as he didn't care for either of them and thought they were a burden on his life. Her mother brought her up as a sylvan, wanting her to understand the importance of her true heritage. When Karystal came of age, her mother sent her away with a pocketful of change and her bow and quiver of newly fletched arrows, wishing her the best and hoping she would find an accepting sylvan town. Karystal traveled through many areas, shunned for being a half-sylvan, teaching herself to hunt and live off the land and in the forests on her own. |

After a year of struggling on her own, she came upon travelers. Seeing as how she was on her own, they took her in and gave her a pleasant and secure life on the road. They helped her finesse her skill with a bow, including how to fletch arrows and customize them to her liking properly. She was able to embrace being herself as they loved her for everything she was and felt accepted in this world. Although she still kept the spirit of [[Sylvankind]] alive for her mother, she adapted to her new family's culture. Kary was welcomed and became part of the [[Vanadre Chiras]]. |

A few years later, once she was strong enough to hunt independently, she wanted to return to archery. She practiced the artisan craft of [[fletching]] and learned to make her strong arrows. She hunted successfully for several trainings but was weary of hunting alone. One day she mustered the courage to ask for help with a bounty through the [[Red Forest]]. A kind sylvan rogue offered to help her, despite being much higher in training than her. She felt humbled but accepted his help. He joined her hunt and they talked and laughed and spent the rest of the day together. Since that day they have been inseparable. That man is Felarynth.[[File:Fel_and_Kary.jpg|300px|thumb|center|A portrait of Karystal and Felarynth rendered by ChatGPT]] |
