History: Gifted from a young age, Mâku studied abroad. When he was little, his rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a old dungeon. He would wander through that old dungeon and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and he was stranded inside. His family spent the next few days looking for him, and could only assume he was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the desert due to the painful memories there. Mâku took refuge in the old dungeon and found the beat up hand crossbow and armor he uses now. He was granted druidic powers by his dying sister.
