(Take your shoes off boys, stay a while, this'll take longer my slideshow of the family trip to Burkina Faso!):


Khili was born in Athkatla to a loving, but poor, family. As you all well know, Athkatla is a merchant city, thusly making life extremely hard for the lower classes. Despite these hardships, the L'a'Cheza family had strong lineage, since his mother was descended of the hero Balduran.

Shortly after Khili's birth, his father and mother found work as scullery servants in the home of a very rich noble, a kind man, who recognized these peoples worth. Unfortunately, the noble, who's name was Titus, could not openly befriend either of Khili's parents, due to the scar it would put on his, admittedly undeserved, reputation. Khili's mother, Diane, was promoted to the head of scullery servants, and his father put into a slightly higher position, so that Titus could contact them.

Titus was an impressive man, but was belittled by Kilian, Khili's father. See where Khili gets his name!? They became friends, and Kilian was promoted to head financial advisor to Titus. In one year, Titus saved much, gained much more, and so did the L'a'Cheza's.
Titus also recognized Kilian's amazing skill with a blade. He single handedly took on a group of six rogue Cowled Wizards. Titus also saw this ability in his son, Khili.

When Khili was of age, he was put to work in Titus's stables, also using real-world sense to improve the way it was kept. Titus now, after a few short years, had gained money, property, and a few friends. Alas, the
L'a'Chezas were still in poverty due to large debts with Nobles who lent them money, stores, and passing merchants. Titus hated seeing this happen to his
friends, because he knew the Kilian wanted Khili in a Melee school. Titus, being a gracious and wise man, paid these debts for them, and put Khili in tutelage under an expert swordsman named Peter.

In a single year, Khili had nearly surpassed him in skill, and a year later, at 15, he did. Khili had learned a multitude of things, but favored the double Katana style overall. He went on the several other schools, learning a wide range of things, but still remained a fighter through and through.

At the age of twenty, he had already achieved what we would know as 17th level. He left home at 23, with Titus's daughter, Naomi at his side. She was what we would call a 10th level Mage. Both Khili and Naomi grew in skill in their time in the wild, forming a small adventuring party. The other two were a Halfling fighter named Mirianne, and an Avariel elf priestess named Erin. They later joined with a Ranger named Corthin.

After 12 long years, many fierce battles, and a few new possessions, the group retired the adventuring business. But it was far from over. Khili and Naomi wed, finally, after almost ten years of maddened love. The group
decided that the areas east of Amn and Baldur's Gate needed civilization, so, they built a tower. Not a large one, but it suited the purpose. After a few years of hiring carpenters to build new houses, and putting families in them, they need more and more help. After building a second town, a reliable system of guards had been established. Inhabitants were many, and resources
were plentiful. A few new things happened, such as an attack by Candlekeep, because the library at the tower became a better one than Candlekeep's.

Tethtoril now controls Candlekeep, since he had killed Ulraunt in self defense. Tethtoril's new position suits him well, since Ulraunt was weaker and not as learned as Tethtoril. Ulraunt died senile and upset. Much has
gone on, including an attack on the tower by a small army of Wyverns, mephits, and a few big dragons. Corthin and Naomi alone managed to kill one of the rouge dragons, but the other proved to be a much larger problem. In a single blow of it's mighty breath, the dragon killed over 100 of the tower guard, melted the weapons and armor of others, and set almost every building in the complex on fire. When it fell, a powerful magic was released, enough to destroy a small forest, and leave a hole the size of Athkatla. The
dragon, who's name was Nash'yi'ati, now serves as armor, weapons, and the like for our heroes.
