History: Born to a pair of adventurers, Therai grew up listening to his mother's many stories. Therai abandoned his home at a very young age, living in the fields and plains.

When he grew older, he became a bit more civilized, usually hanging around bars and taverns. He began work as a mercenary for hire. He would embark on any mission as long as the price was right.

Motivation: Obtaining odd cultural Halfling artifacts is his passion; and he feels kind of lost in life
