Mawuli

As a warthog person from the times just after the Fall, Mawuli lived in a time and place where men were expected to be warriors or workers, not users of esoteric powers, especially not ennealogy. As such, he was treated poorly his entire life, and history as it is recorded states that he sought escape through use of drugs, especially psychedelic mushrooms, and that a misadventure gathering said mushrooms led to him slipping into an eddy in the timestream. Watchers tracked him and noted that he died trying to find his way back from the industrial era. Because of the Fragmentation, he now finds himself in more dire circumstances and perhaps rising to them.

Mawuli was raised to be a warrior, but he was never very good at it. His mother practiced the arts of ennealogy, and he learned from her when he wasn't training. He found himself adept at the arts of emotional resonance and took it up as his craft, going against societal expectations. This led to his enslavement when he was in his late 20s when he was conscripted and refused to fight. He used his arts to emotionally control his enslavers and escaped to another city-state. There, he took up his work and opened a stall in a market, where he gave advice in exchange for food and drink. He began using drugs and other substances to escape the stress of his life and his constant worry of being re-enslaved, going on foraging trips every few days to feed his habits.
