Rhyme comes from a bustling trade city forged around and atop a massive tree and nestled in a distant valley. The upper tier where he primarily lived doesn’t deal with travelers or trade. Only those capable of flight are able to get to the upper tier, which leaves that community fairly secluded.

His people preferred to keep to themselves, tending to the nature that gives structure and shelter to the city rather than partake in the trading of goods and mingling with outsiders. His people aren’t materialistic and prefer to share what they have to those who need it. They take only what they need and don’t generally keep many possessions. In this regard, Rhyme is no different so he sees no value in physical objects and has a limited understanding of currency.

To him and his kind, connections and memories are valued over all else. Perhaps a little too much. One who cannot form, or has difficulties forming connections is referred to as an Empty, a title that has been given to Rhyme.

As a child, he failed to resonate with anyone in his community. An awkward being that nobody could get a read on how he was feeling. His lack of visual emotion made others uncomfortable. He began to wear a smile wherever he went, but this only made things worse. For what good is a smile if one is always showing it, even at inappropriate times?

As he continued to fail at making connections in his own community, he turned to expanding his world. He began to fly down to the undercity and play with the children there. The culture was vastly different from what he was used to, and despite how awkward he appeared, he did make a truly amazing connection. A spirited boy named Riddle, and the two quickly became inseparable.

The pair very quickly adopted an adventurous streak. Donning pots and pans and creating makeshift weapons out of sticks and rocks. Nothing could stop them from exploring wherever they saw fit! And as time marched on, their dreams of travel and adventure only grew, and continues to grow!
