Character[]

The most important things in Kai's life are his wife and daughter. Though a simple carpenter by trade, he works hard to provide a better future for them.

Quotes:

"The answer to this puzzle lies...within your own soul."
"There's nothing like a good challenge to inspire."

Story[]

An artisan from a long tradition of fine craft, Kai built fine works of art for the nobility of Relecour. Though nobles and merchants often commission him for exceptional wares, his specialty lies in magical puzzle boxes. Each is unique to the customer, portraying a reflection of their soul through a secret process passed down though ages of Omekai masters.

When civil war erupted across Relecour, Kai turned his craft to the defense of his family, creating a box that could seal away troubles as easily as another might contain valuables. When his town was threatened by monsters he was able to test his craft and seal away the creatures. His work was a success.

When stories of a carpenter who had locked away a rampaging monster within a magical box reached the ears of Feylana, she came to his doorstep with a commission: a box to seal an ancient sorcerer with a puzzle that could never be solved. Kai knew that he would have to create his finest work yet if his family and his homeland were ever to know peace. An unusual task, but one that only he could complete.

Powers & Abilities[]

Kai possesses a magic box that provides various buffs to his stats. Each round, he can activate the box to utilize these bonuses. However, each bonus comes with a risk -- if the opponent can anticipate his intentions, he stands to lose everything.

Outwit opponents and mask your intentions to unlock untold power!
