<p> A Dungeon's and Dragons backstory. </p> <p> Aestith Rix is the eighth child of an eighth daughter of an eighth daughter of an eighth daughter, so when he was born male he was considered to be an even greater disappointment than a male drow would ordinarily be. The Rix family hold a lot of money and land, but have not been able to secure a title. His birth was hoped to have been a long-awaited cleric who could be the driving force behind their family finally securing a place among the nobility. As a male, he could not live up to that expectation. </p> <p> Puberty usually brings on many changes, but for Aestith, it provided him with an endless source of terror as he began to wonder if, in a way, his family were not getting exactly what they had wanted from him. </p> <p> Aestith's own body seems to turn against him and becomes a curse, and later, a blessing. He believes it is his struggle and his test from Lolth. This belief is affirmed as his clerical powers grow after he escapes to the surface, but his homesickness is unbearable and he feels he must return to the Underdark. </p> <p> "Sounds like a good way to die." </p> <p> Either he shall fail, and fall into obscurity, or he shall rise. </p>
