Life up to this point has been good- or at least as well as it can be in the small town of Little Solace that had less than 3000 citizens to its name. It's a closed off mountain town, and only accessible by train that goes through the mountain tunnel. So how did you end up here? You don't seem to remember anything but your name and who you are. You know nothing about the events that have happened or how you saved the world from a great evil that befell Little Solace several months before you woke up from your deep sleep. The answer to that is really quite simple.
You're cursed- or blessed depending on how you look at it. You were given powers at a young age from making a bond with a Celestial creature that feeds off of your life-force. When the dark mage decided to create the evil creatures with his dark powers, you fought valiantly to defend your home from his creatures so that no one else was killed or hurt by them- knowing you were more or less siphoning your life away slowly to do so. When his magic became too great, the Celestials fought by your side- fusing their remaining power with your own. The result? The end of the dark mage as everyone knew him.
The saving of the world came at a great cost to the heroes themselves. They were left unconscious, wounded, and near death. The result of their fusion with their Celestial familiars was the only reason that they remained amongst the living, and the townspeople mourned the loss of their saviors. As time went on, they feared that they'd never awaken, but here YOU are. When you come to, they tell you tales of heroism and valor- of which you remember nothing about. You try to go about your life as an ordinary citizen, but there's something strange about this town. You just can't seem to put your finger on it.
You're given a free room in the boarding house on the edge of town, and given a job that caters to your skills as you try your hardest to fit in with the rest of the shaken town of Little Solace, but can a cursed being truly fit in with the mundane people for long?
