[Champion Concept] Koga, Hermit of the Mossy Hills

Lore of the Hermit: Once Koga was a man who was renowned for his skills with a spear, his kindness to all as well as his strong iron liver, but sometimes even the greatest cannot accomplish the impossible. During an autumn evening at his favorite inn when Koga was enjoy a friendly drinking contest, the town the inn was situated in was under attack by a roving caravan of bandits that were ravaging the country sides. If the towns folk wished for their safety one of them must defat 100 of them before the moon rises of course Koga took up the challenge. Time has passed & the moon rose over the town & Koga was only able to best 14 bandits out of the hundred, after failing the challenge Koga decided to fight the remaining 268 bandits…but to avail. He was best & was on the verge of death, the town & its people were broken & battered. Ashamed & appalled of his lackluster skills that folks heard tales of Koga disappeared from civilization. Some say he ventured into the distance woods & committed self-punishment, others say that he left Ionia to start a new life somewhere else. Whichever tale you choose to believe in Koga has never been seen again.

112yrs. have passed since that day & people soon forgot who Koga was. Soon his name only became local legend in old stories for children to read, but soon the man of these tales would have resurfaced. In a far of distance city near the center of Ionia a mass of bandits & thieves began pillaging this city for all it is worth, many of the citizens tried to escape but all were either cut down or shackled to be sold into slavery. Under the roof of a fallen building a woman & a child huddled together streaked with fear & hopping they go unnoticed, a small group of the pillaging bandits were lurking like shadows searching for any valuables they main force may have missed. The child & the woman held their breathe for fear that one of them may hear them…but an eye appeared in front of a hole in roof & voice saying: “I see you my pretty gems.”, as the pair shudder cry out the bandit swiftly vanished. In front of the fallen roof was a creature standing right on top of the bandit, the remaining bandits surrounded the creatures weapons drawn & trained to upon the beast. The bandits muttered to one another on what the best is, it looked like a frog but it was smoking a pipe & wielded a large spear. As the creature stood up the bandits charged forward but all they hit was the roof. The creature was gone, but upon hearing a croak they bandits turned to see the beast holding the woman & child in its arms.

In a deep yet very soothing voice the creature asked the pair: _“Are you alright little ones?” _ The woman shook her head but the girl was frighten by the creatures visage & was too scared to speak. The creature put the pair down behind him, faced the bandits & drew its spear. The bandits re-grouped around the creature ready to attack it once again. It was deathly silent only the crumble of building & the flickering of flames dancing within the moons glow where the only sound to be heard. As the creature exhaled a puff of smoke the bandits charged at it once again this time with no intent on missing, in an instant the creature swung his spear cleaving all 7 men in one swoop. While resting its spear on its shoulder the creature took one more inhale from his pipe & then exhaled a puff of smoke once again, after putting the pipe back in its mouth the creature looked at the woman & child & said: “Stay put, soon someone will come for you.” with a calm expression on its face. As the creature was about to venture off after the main group of bandits the woman & child bowed to the creature & thanked it, the woman asked in haste: “Please tell us your name, o noble creature that you have saved us & yet are mere strangers to you?” The creature only said one thing: “A man who did not earn his name, a name that once made him a legend in years past. My name is Koga” With that the creature vanished into the darken sky.

In the morning & the reprieve of the horror that night guards from a neighboring palace came to see what was left of the city. On route to the site they say a field, a field with well over 500 bodies. As the guards entered the city they began asking what cause such a massacre outside the city’s boundaries. None of the citizens could tell them as they were in hiding from the bandits, but one woman came forth & told the guards of what transpired that night: “We were saved, saved by a man once thought to be nothing but mere legend. But now I am certain that he has returned. And his name is…Koga.”
