005: KAEL VEYR

🃏 Kael Veyr — The Trickster of Shifting Roads

“He is the grin in the storm, the glint in the blade, the whisper that turns tyrants into fools.”

✨ Origin Legend

In the twilight between realms, where rules unravel and stories escape their bindings, Kael was born of a stolen prophecy. Once a nameless orphan in the City of Masks, he learned to bend illusion like silk, trading laughter for secrets and tricks for truth. When the stars blinked and fate looked away, he stole his name from a god—and now, nothing can pin him down.
