Kam

 "Two dead souls waiting for another hit, Two dead souls, just pass if you can't handle it, Cause it's a game to see which one of us will die first, It's like a plague we're caving in we've got the same thirst" - "The plot in you, die like your brother"

Physical
Kam cuts a tall, lean unsettling figure amongst the group. Pointed ears, pierced multiple times along each of them as if an attempt to cover up the scarring, both of his ears are almost clipped, like other races tend to do with fighting animals to create a more intimidating profile. Unlike other races, his eyes are red, like inset burning coals. A trait not shared among any of the races one may think he is. The ends of his fingers that can be seen from the finger-less gloves terminate in a set of vicious looking claws. His claws ombre from the nail bed to the tip from a dark blue to a more natural nail color.

The colors he wears trend towards the darker colors, blacks, darker reds and to stay away from the blues or lighter colors that would draw attention to the pallor of his skin.

Personality
Kam is if anything, a man built upon the foundation of patience. Learning that waiting for the right opportunity to strike is far more valuable than impulsive emotion. For that he appears to be silent more often than naught in the face of being's whom simply wish to do nothing more than to get a rise. He exhibits a cold, confidant demeanor that almost edges on arrogance. He's shown an interest in the darker things in life when Thea offered her Talisman of ultimate Evil to be gifted in place of the ritual. Stating that the object would be safer in the hands of his Father if they were so worried about its location. Yet he holds no wish to trust any one in the party of the moment. He's only somewhat displayed his intelligent nature in the presence of the party offering some insight on the nature of the Abyssal gods.

Before the Story
What the Party knows of Kam's time before is that he bears some strong connection to the party's Leader Rylan. Going back to time in a fair amount of time in Menzoberrazan. That he is the youngest son of the Demon Prince Grazz'zt and The Witch Queen Tasha. Elder brother to Keres.

As of the moment, Kam returned to the Material Plane via the last charge of his Blackrune stone. Meeting the Third Family outside of the Mages Tower in Morad.

With the Third Family
Introductions have been kept short for the time being before they set off to the higher planes in search of answers. Whilst the gods in question seemed more interesting in reading members of the party down. Kam remains a quiet observer this far in their company. Seeing for the time being how they all react to their stressors. When given the gift of a singular question from one of the Gods of Knowledge, Kam only asked for the status of his mother. Whom is alive and doing very well for herself.

As the party was on their way to the next higher plane on their trek for answers, they were escorted by a Deva, whos intention's were less than what was intended. The Celestial being began to question the party's company in Kam, hinting at a nature less than good to the party. The Third family was far more outspoken in the exchange than Kam. Resulting in a fight in which the Deva was spared, his wings dislocated and Kam taking the Angelic blade with him.

Gael Atheal

While following the group to the hidden realm Kam continued to tag along staying in the back of the fight until Rylan was captured. Taking it within his own to help spear head a full on assault against the now dead, Iimeth Baentlar, Whom Kam was lucky enough to distract with the help of Bryn whilst the others saved Rylan. Upon Leaving the Drow encampment, They were met with a small envoy of G'eldaere Baenre, Rylan's mother, on a seemingly lazy crusade to rescue her son. While, long story short. Kam was among the privileged to stand next to Rylan as he stood up to his mother. Seeing a change in Rylan, that old spark that seemed to be missing from when they were running time on the surface together.

The pair shared a private moment upon returning to the necromancers tower.

Morad

Back on the road to Morad, the party discovered through running into some of their acquaintances that the world had changed severely since they left the material planes. Civar had taken control of the empire and Hilan is now a fiend's paradise. Upon their return to the material plane it would appear the party had gone missing for more than just a few hours, not days but months. Thankfully, after making contact with one of his past acquaintances, Kam was able to secure the party papers for rights into the city proper without question.

While the group made their way through the city with questionable goods, a rather clipped conversation between Brynwick and Kam happens to take the party's ears, but not their involvement. The conversation in question, Kam reminds Bryn that her actions no matter how banal she thinks have consequences and if she is to forsake her part in the party again at the cost of another's quality of life that he will kill her. Marking a hard turn for the ever growing fissure between the two of them, Bryn in turn rather than take responsibility for her actions, simply attempts to call him an "abyssal creature' under her breath.

Once they arrive at the tower, they are greeted by the angry spectre of Tiago, Posessing Rylan to accomplish what he needs to help the Party put an end to Civar. Brilliantly Carrion and Tiago rebuild the gate, allowing the party to travel back to the correct time, moments before the original assault on the tower happens. Stopping Civar in his tracks and allotting Rylan the chance to acquire the first of the Divine ranks. The Spark of Cyric, which now calls home inside Rylan. However, the death of Civar is a short lived celebration as the party is separated due to a Planar shift spell.

The Triple Realm

Rylan and Kam thankfully end up in a familiar space for one of them. Giving Rylan the chance to make good on a deal with "divine implications". Interestingly enough the pair return with a third. Keres. Notably the pair return sporting a whole new attire. However, they're informed of a deal that Thea was forced to make to save the party in the absence of Kam and Rylan. Loray as well was also spotted as missing still. Rylan once again goes to great lengths to return not only the lost member of the party, but his belongings as well to the material plane.

Return to Morad

Once all of the fiasco in the tower is settled, the party seemingly splits, taking the time to celebrate in their own ways. Kam seems to spear head the entertainment looking for an illicit cage fight. Kam coming out the victor and surprisingly enough Thea too in her own right not only threw the gauntlet down with another bard but unequivocally slapped him with it.

To Ruinglast

With the timeline put right and Morad once again back to its proper rule, the group sets off towards Ruinglast, but it's not without its own hardships. Tensions pulling the party in different directions. Everyone seems to set up their own portions of camp in utter silence. After the party settles into the round of watches, its on the first watch that Keres and Thea are interrupted by a group called The Silver Robins. This particular group held a member whom decided to lob offensive comments towards Thea and Keres before Rylan and Kam in tandem ink from the black like shadows.

This particular party however held more intentions than just passing through. Rather they were sent by Oghma at the unintentional behest of Bryn to kill Kam. After a rather banefully short altercation, Bryn summons Aniel to the fight with the intentions of "ending it quickly" However the short instructions only results in more than favorable results for Kam. The Silver Robins, slaughtered by her misguided spell. This only results in Bryn being forced to choose, her god or the party. Upon loosing her powers, the party makes an attempt to return the camp site to a level of normal. As normal as it could ever be.

The rest of the Trip is spent in relative silence until they reach just outside of the mountain community, a small town over taken by the Black Hand. Kam suggested that the party not engage the Cult of Bhaal just yet. As they were clearly out numbered and potentially out gunned, that it would be better to return once the party had found a way to gather greater numbers.

Ruinglast

Once the party arrived at Ruinglast, the tension from the previous night unsettled only proved to climb higher. Fuego broke off from the party to reunite with Meme, and Kam made his way to a blacksmith whilst Rylan went to speak with The Dragon Fathers. Kam spent a great deal of his time in Ruinglast working for the Dragonborn blacksmith. Helping the Man catch up on his work whilst he forged armor for the Tanar'ri.

The party reunited once again back at the gates of the town, having seemingly acquired the army in question due to Rylan's conversations with the Dragon Fathers. Once a plan was established, the party and there new allies headed back down the way towards the small town they passed which had been over taken by the Black hand. Kam, much to the parties surprise, anxiously lead a forward distraction having never been in command of an army before. This marks the second time he's held the opportunity and the first time that he's taken it. Having denied the title of the First blade. Kam's distraction tactics provided more than ample time for Keres and Rylan to enact the real scheme to save the town. the pair slaying the Commander and terminating the battle by cutting the head from the snake.

With the party reformed Kam held onto his specter Ike, taking the shambling corpse back to the Tavern where they were staying in Ruinglast. Letting the undead continue to be of use for the soon to be swamped owner whom had been terribly kind to the party. It was the least he could do. Ike now serves as the friendly undead barkeep. It wasn't long after getting their friendly banter back in stride that boundaries yet again had to be established. However before the mood could be totally ruined, Kam and Rylan were able to escape to their room. Where they pair spent the rest of the evening until they were later awoke by Thea. Following her, the party and the Traveler into the Feywild.

Kam stayed behind from the party venturing into the Feywild, out of respect for one of their past fallen members.

Once the party retuned from the feywild, something was off with Brynwick. It was reveled to him that she had been subjected to a feeblemind spell by a blight witch. However the next morning the situation seemed to turn even further south. Brynwick was discovered murdered in her sleep by some heinous creature. Kam having the least connection to her was able to assist the city guard in potentially narrowing down a suspect. At the very least they were collectively able to eliminate anyone in the town and the party members as suspects. While raising caution to be on the look out in the city. Kam could only reassure the guard, that perhaps it was one of the many enemies the party had made coming to claim vengeance and the city itself probably would not fall prey to any more.

Yet it would appear their time in Ruinglast was not at an end. The party watched as Deliaph came into the tavern to order food for her son whom was as much as the town knew dead for some time. The party offered to help the woman to just make sure that she was potentially just a grieving mother and nothing more sinister was a foot. Upon arriving at her residence they soon discovered this to be far from the truth. Against the party's wishes, Kam proceeded to lock himself in the room with the 'child' in question. Chomper. A young deceased dragonborn who's body was being piloted by a small Oblex.

Kam taking the time to speak to the oblex, creature to creature was able to reach an agreement. Or at least broach the idea. that would be agreeable for both the town and the Oblex. Whom much like himself were only trying to find a home. But monsters are often destroyed even when they do nothing harmful. Thankfully members of the town were able to come to an pact of sorts. The oblex could take the form and memories of the dead, if the deceased in question and their loved ones were accepting of the idea. The oblex, now have a safe space in the town, and some of the Dragonborn have a chance to spend time with their loved ones again, in a very amicable symbiotic relationship.

Menzoberranzan

It wasn't long after the party received news that Rylan's mother had died. Leaving him the Heir to the Underdark, to return home for his Coronation and to take his rightful place as ruler. The Party following Rylan's lead left immediately venturing through one of the many tunnel systems that connected the city to the world above. Kam never truly wanting to return to the underdark, stayed silent for most of the trek. Until they were greeted by a group of flumps. Rylan and Kam both respectively seemed to be granted a semblance of peace upon meeting the group of floating pasta noodles. Playing with them as they walked, settling clearly anxious nerves before they were left at the gates of the city. The Flumps going on their merry way to help or harm more travelers through the underdark.

When the party enters the city proper, its only a matter of moments before they are recognized, not only for being obvious outsiders but just as to why. for the most part the group goes to the palace uninterrupted. Upon reaching the doors of the palace the party is greeted by a elder mind flayer by the name of Tasseleq. Rylan's childhood mentor and the palace's Major domo.

Almost immediately its the talk of politics and setting affairs in order. Rylan quickly puts several of the concerns at end. There is no need for the arena competions as the position of paramour is already taken. Kam however makes it known that he welcomes the challenge and to preserve customs would accept should any one wish to. Yet their marital agreement is binding and there is ultimately no need.

Shortly there after they are informed invitations had been sent out and several of those on the guest list have already arrived, Kam and Kere's parents included. To which both of the siblings question if the arrived together or separate. Explaining to the party the interesting dynamic their parents have without out right saying whom they are just yet. They're informed their parents are in fact staying together.

Rylan, Kam, Keres, and Thea split from the party to discuss the next set of events with the sibling's parents.

{redacted}

The Party reconvenes in the morning after a well earned rest in what would be a meeting area before someone is announced. Mizzryn, thinking she's won the trials of the arena and here to claim Rylan as her prize but could not be more than dead wrong about the assumption. Rylan, despite her disrespect to not only Thea, but Keres, grants her the position of High mistress of prayers.

The party breaks ways to change for Rylan's coronation. Taking the time to select what's fitting for not only their status, but to represent where they come from and whom they are. It's truly the first time the party is able to look at one another and see just how diverse and different they are. Differences they've been able to set aside and just how far they've come. There's a moment where they talk about with Rylan's small council those they have lost along the way.

The coronation goes off without issue, to everyone's surprise, something finally goes right. The Third family celebrate, introductions are made. Almost everyone important to Rylan is able to attend. Perhaps its the happiest and exhausted Kam has seen his husband. Kam for one couldn't be more proud of how far Rylan has come.

Majority of the morning after the celebration, Kam and Rylan spend it to themselves. In quiet peace, enjoying each other and taking the time to iron out some of their recent slights. Its not until some time later that the party reconvenes in the in the Garden of stone. Keres telepathically sending the warning of putting some pants on there's someone they need to meet. Upon arriving to the garden not only do they see Tasha, but a new individual, Garret. A Rabbitfolk the party rescued when they were in the Feywild at the behest of the Traveler.

Before they leave to discuss the next steps of the plans, Rylan receives a rather particular item. One that not only shows a little more insite to his past but itself is a gift from his estranged father. However it comes with a warning that chills the party to the core.

Return to the Triple Realm

Rylan, Kam and Keres come to the conclusion that the best bet before the move forward would be to discuss the plan once more with the expidited timetable with at least Graz'zt. Taking the time to Abyss once again. Keres and Kam leading the party to the Argent Palace. Along the way telling those whom havent been before to do nothing disrespectful, dont eat the meat, or do its just a warning and their choice ultimately.

The Third Family
Kam at this moment holds very little attachment to the members of the third family. In fact he feels they seem to be lost in the ether of reality, unfocused and sitting on the sidelines watching history go by. Doing what they think is right not due to their own accord but following what Rylan thinks is right. Almost blindly.

Bryn Nibnibbler : There was nothing short of a divide between the two of them. Kam held little respect for people who covet knowledge for the simple sake of it. Nor did he tolerate her continued use of Rylan and the party for her own gains. Visibly draining Rylan on multiple occasions. The final straw for Kam was when Bryn forsake her duty to the party as cleric and chose to attempt to help him fight when Rylan was Kidnapped by his cousin.

In Morad on the way to fight Civar, Kam threatened her with death should she ever do something else that would put the party in direct danger again. She called him an Abyssal Creature under her breath. While the comment isn't wrong, it allowed the party to see her true colors. Bryn met her untimely end in Ruinglast, having been mauled by some creature in the night. Slashing her throat and body to ribbons. The creature responsible is still in the wind, gone just as quickly and silently as it attacked.

Kam however did everything in his power to help the city guard attempt to identify what may have gotten into the tavern that night to no avail,

Fuego Nevermere: Kam holds a level of respect for the dragonborn, whom in their brief conversations have a working relationship as warlocks. Understanding what it is to be under the some what yolk of another's game. While learning how to play their games, to which are in their favor. However of the late, it would seem that Fuego has taken a different path, choosing to lean more into the brutal ways of combat. The Dragonborn has started again flinging fire balls with near abandon with who's becoming collateral damage. This is however starting to wear thin on Kam's patience.

Keres: His youngest sibling, Perhaps the only one he holds to any sort of standard. While the pair of them are only recently introduced Kam has taken to her as if they grew up side by side. She is his equal, and has gained his trust without question. The pair fell easily into the sibling dynamic. Kam threatening to rip any one in half whom would dare disrespect her, Keres, actively doing the same for him.

Ruinfea: Kam looks to Ruinfea with amusement and equal parts worry, not for her actions but for her inability to act at times. Over the time they have spent together he's watched her grow more into her own abilities. Seeing her own confidence boost in her self after the heart break she seemed to experience at Glae athel. She's a kind heart, watching her chase mushroom dragons and then helping her find different ones.... She reminds him to enjoy the little moments in life.

Rylan Baenre: The two share a long standing history not fully known to the party yet. They shared in some of the worst moment's in each other's life. Rylan was the first of them to recognize one another outside of the mage's tower in Morad. The pair of them are almost equally the opposite of one another. Yet their friendship remains strong over the past 60 years. Trusting one another almost implicitly whilst easily falling back into mirroring one another in combat to deadly precision.

Kam holds Rylan as the closets person to him. While they have tension at times. The pair are able to settle differences quickly and most of the time in a rather healthy manner. Speaking to one another about how they're feeling when they have the chance to be uninterrupted. He will always remember the Rylan whom took the time to teach him to speak during their shared hell.

Theodosia Chandler: To Kam his relationship with Thea has perhaps grown the most out of everyone in the Third Family. Thea was the first to show the capability of thinking for herself upon meeting him back in Morad. Showing levels of distrust regardless of what Rylan said to them. In that Thea started off gaining a higer level of respect from Kam. That trust seemed to expand both ways the longer he traveled around her. Even so much as entrusting Kam with the Amulet of Ultimate Evil, he made good on his word to keep it safe and away from what would cause the party harm. It would now appear that Thea not only is held in high regard by kam but Keres as well.

The only stipulation Kam has when it comes to Thea pertains to her bardic abilities. She is the only person he will have intro him into a fighting pit from hence forth.

Other Characters
Graz'zt: The Dark Prince, Demon Lord, Shadow King, Father. Graz'zt pulled Kam from the hell he was forced to endure. Having lost his whereabouts due to spite. Kam had remained hidden from him until the death of the Shadar-kai Kam had fallen into the possession of. Kam spent the last 30 years in Azzagrat by his father's side before venturing out on his behest to see just what was happening to the Abyssal lords on Hilan. He is the patron to Kam's hexbalde pact. Graz'zt has been nothing short of supportive of his childern's ventures into ascending in their own rights. Graz'zt himself now in all technicality gathering the title King of Demons after Kam gained the spark from the Demogorgon. Destroying one of his father's biggest enemies.

The party has met Graz'zt on several occasions. Rylan's coronation, allowing them to scheme in the Argent Palace in the Triple Realm, and most recently in Toril. Graz'zt arriving with Tasha saving the party from the Root of all War. Graz'zt drawing his ire, fending off several hard blows allowing the party to escape through a rift into Hades. Upon arriving in Hades, resurrecting Kam in the midst of the party's panic.

Iggwilv: The Witch Queen, Archmage, Master Demonologist, His mother. Revealed by his gifted question from Oghma is alive and doing quite well for herself these days. Cryptic at best, but to his credit Kam never asked her name. It was only minor shock to his system when he learned just whom she was. Considering his father, the answer was right there the entire time. Kam bearing a closer resemblance to her than Graz'zt, while Keres in tandem favors Graz'zt's looks.

Their relationship could only be described as estranged until Rylan's coronation. Tasha arrived with Graz'zt to bridge the gap between them. Kam was more than hesitant at first before watching the way she treated Keres before finally relaxing in her presence over 'tea'.

During their time in Toril, Tasha arrived with Graz'zt to save the party from the fatal encounter with The Root of War. Graz'zt drawing his ire while Tasha held a rift open in the dimension lock allowing the party safe passage to Hades but not without giving the party a rather curt lesson in balance of dynamics upon finding her son dead and daughter nearly scared to death.

Zane: A Tiefling illicit markets dealer from Kam's time running illegal materials between the planes. Now thriving gave Kam legal papers for passage in to Morad and a box containing five shards of the Crown of Madness.

Ike: Ike fell prey to one of Kam's many hexblade spells. having been risen as a helpful aid during the battle against the Cult of Bhaal. Ike now lives the rest of this unlife seemingly in bliss as a barkeep and aid At the Purple Scale in Ruinglast.
