History: He was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of his parents. In his 12th year, while out on a day-trip, he returned to find his hometown burning and destroyed. He found his father impaled in their home, and his mother beheaded. He saw the man who walked out, and charged him in a blind rage. The man easily evaded and defeated him, leaving him to live broken and terrified. During his travels, Himo and his party rested in a cavern that was (unknown to them) infused with powerful dark magic. Upon awakening, Himo discovered the rest of his party dead, transformed into horrible, mindless undead versions of their former selves. Himo fled the cavern, stopping for breath at a small pool, and only then realizing his own horrible transformation.
