Biography

Born to no particularly great standing within his tribe, Guyon was the progeny of two rather unremarkable parents. As such, he was raised with little-to-no expectations placed upon his conscience. As an adolescent, Guyon ran away repeatedly, forever trying to create a “wild herd” composed of other young and restless centaurs. Inevitably, Guyon would return to his tribe having grown either bored, or too hungry to stay out on his own. As the run-away attempts ceased, Guyon forced himself to focus on his training with a bow; he knew full well that the only way to survive the desert was to eat whenever possible and to never stop moving. Gradually, Guyon became more and more skilled with the bow and drew the of the war chieftain, Sanzli. Interested in cultivating Guyon’s uncanny knack with the bow, Sanzli led Guyon deep into the Faulan Desert to train him. Years of merciless training passed before Guyon and Sanzli returned to the tribe; their return however, was not what they expected. Diseased and broken, the once proud members of the Mammon tribe were nothing more than crazed, half-dead beasts. There was only one thing to do. With nothing more than a nod from Sanzli, he and Guyon set out to massacre their living kin; the disgrace of their madness too much to bear. Few were left to kill when Guyon’s actions were halted. Huddled before him were the emaciated and terrified forms of his parents, more remarkable now than they had ever been. Despair and pain tore through Guyon’s heart and rent it in two; he knew what he had to do, but to bring himself to do so was beyond his ability. Turning away, Guyon meant to leave them behind forever; and for a while, he succeeded.

He and Sanzli traveled the depths of the Faulan Desert for nearly a century before returning to their home. Returning proved to be more haunting than either had imagined. The centaurs that had been left alive or presumed dead had spent those years surviving on the flesh of their slain kin. The disease that had ravaged the tribe was amplified and plagued the survivors to complete and inescapable madness. Horrified, Guyon and Sanzli picked their way through the bones littered in the sands towards the center of the tribe. Before them was the preserved and bleached skeleton of the tribe’s chief Goula, his remains had been erected and used as an idol- worshipped and prayed to by the survivors. At its feet was Guyon’s father, crouched over the recently dead body of a distorted but familiar member. Horror-struck, Guyon turned to flee but was stopped by Sanzli. “Yeh can’t turn ‘way naow G’yon, ‘t must be done.” His eyes shut in pain, the centaur reached slowly for his bow and a single arrow; aiming for the base of the head, Guyon let loose the arrow and saw his father slump to the sands, blood gurgling from the hole in his throat. Sanzli placed a hand on Guyon’s shoulder- the only comfort to be had. The two departed in silence and have yet to return since.

Perhaps only a few decades had passed before Guyon and Sanzli emerged from the Faulan Desert and into Hollow, but whatever the amount of time spent, the two were determined to make a new life for themselves and to forget the horrors of their past.

Current Situation

  • Guyon's current locale is in the Nameless Desert; though his new haunt is home to some sinister going-ons that the centaur is just beginning to uncover with the help of a small caravan.
  • The centaur has recently been 'gifted' claws in his hands- and is greatly bereaved to have them. He is looking to have them removed.
  • Guyon is also looking to take up some kind of control of the Nameless Desert.
