That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Mimic

A grizzled, silver beard and hair wolf-kin in his late sixties, with wolf-like ears and a bushy tail standing at 6 feet with a slight stoop. His piercing yellow eyes gleam with sharp wit, and a patchwork cloak—stitched from old adventuring gear—hangs over his lean frame.

Kael is gruff but kind-hearted, with a dry sense of humor and a knack for storytelling. He’s quick to size up customers, offering sage advice to E-Rank newbies and respectful nods to B-Rank Oni. He haggles fiercely but throws in small trinkets for regulars, especially those who share tales of the Whispering Woods. Kael’s past as a C-Rank Archer surfaces in his keen eye and occasional demonstrations of Hawk’s Eye to spot counterfeit coins.

Once a wanderer who tracked beasts in the Mistveil Mountains, Kael settled in Elderglow after a wyvern hunt cost him his left ear and his taste for adventure. He opened Old Kael's General Store to supply the Guild, secretly hoping to aid the next generation in uncovering the ruins’ secrets he never could. Rumors swirl that Kael keeps a locked chest in the loft, filled with maps to lost relics.
